HOW TO USE YOUR WAFFLE MAKER
For the best results, follow these simple instructions
.
Note: When your waffle maker is heated for the first time, it may emit slight smoke or
odor. This is normal with many heating appliances and does not affect the safety of your
appliance. However, it may affect the flavor of the first set of waffles prepared in your
waffle maker, and it is recommended to discard these.
Preparing for use
Close the waffle maker and plug it into the wall outlet, you will notice that the Red Power
Light will go on. Turn the temperature control knob to your desired setting, the Green
Ready Light will go on. It will take approximately 3 to 5 minutes to reach baking
temperature. When the Green Ready Light turns off, the waffle maker is ready to cook!
1.
Set the Waffle Temperature Control to your desired setting. At first, try a setting
between 6 - MAX. You may later adjust it lower or higher according to your
preference. Settings 2 - 6 produce a lighter colored waffle, while waffles made at 8 -
MAX are darker and crisper. Different waffle batters will also cook up differently.
Over time, you will find your perfect setting for the batter you use.
2.
Before baking the first waffles of the day, use a pastry brush to lightly coat the top
and bottom waffle grids with vegetable oil. A light coating of non-stick cooking
spray will also work.
3.
When the proper baking temperature is reached, the green light will turn off. Once
heated up, cycle times will be quicker.
4.
Pour batter onto the bottom grid of waffle maker. Ladle just enough batter to fill the
lower grid so that the peak area of the grid is covered. If necessary, use a spatula to
spread the batter into the corners of the grid.
5.
Close cover. It is normal for a small amount of batter to run over and down the sides.
If an excessive amount of batter runs over, use less batter.
6.
Cover will rise slightly as waffles begin to bake. Do not open cover while steam is
escaping. Most waffle recipes bake in approximately 3 to 5 minutes.
7.
When waffles are done, remove with a non-metallic utensil so as not to scratch the
non-stick finish.
NOTE: The green light will turn on and off while cooking. This indicates the thermostat
is maintaining its temperature.
