BEFORE FIRST USE
Remove all packing and any promotional labels
or stickers from your wafe maker. Be sure that
all parts (listed in Part and Features) of your
new wafe maker have been included before
discarding any pack materials. You may want
to keep the box and packing materials for use
at a later date.
Before using your Cuisinart® Double Belgian
Wafe Maker for the rst time, remove any
dust from shipping by wiping the plates with
a damp cloth.
NOTE: The wafe plates have been treated with
a special nonstick coating. The rst time you use
your wafe maker, it may have a slight odor and
may smoke a bit. This is normal and common to
appliances with a nonstick surface.

desired setting. Your Cuisinart® Double

4. Once preheated, the indicator lights will
be illuminated and the wafe maker will
beep 6 times.
5. After wafe maker is preheated, brush
the wafe plates with a avorless oil to

NOTE: Please note that top and bottom
grid covers may separate slightly during
use. This is normal. Should this occur,
do not close handles to rotate until unit

completed. To reduce grid separation and
overow during cooking, you may want to
reduce the quantity of batter.
6. After the wafe maker is preheated
and ready for baking, open the wafe
maker lid. Pour wafe batter evenly on
the wafe grid. Use a heatproof spatula
to spread the batter evenly over the plate.

CLEANING, CARE AND
MAINTENANCE
Once you have nished baking, remove plug from
electrical outlet. Leave top lid open and allow
grids to cool down completely before cleaning.
Brush crumbs from grooves, and absorb any
excess cooking oil by wiping with a dry cloth
or paper towel. You may clean the grids by wiping
with a damp cloth to prevent staining and sticking
from batter or oil buildup. Never take your
waffle maker apart for cleaning.
Be certain that grids have cooled completely
before cleaning. If batter adheres to plates,
simply pour a little cooking oil onto the baked
batter and let stand approximately ve minutes,
allowing batter to soften for easy removal.
To clean exterior, wipe with a soft, dry cloth.
Never use an abrasive cleanser or harsh pad.
NEVER IMMERSE CORD, PLUG OR UNIT
IN WATER OR OTHER LIQUIDS.
Any other servicing should be provided by an
Authorized Service Representative.
TIPS AND HINTS
• Setting #1 will produce the lightest color
wafes. Setting #5 will produce the darkest
color wafes. Experiment to determine your
preferred setting.
• We recommend turning the browning control
dial to setting #3 when using commercial
pancake/wafe mixes and for the included
recipes. If you prefer crisper, darker Belgian
wafes, set the browning control higher. If you
prefer lighter wafes, turn the browning control
dial down.
• Packaged Belgian wafe mixes found in most
supermarkets may be used with this unit.
• For best results, we recommend lling the
supplied batter cup to the top so it will ll
the wafe grids.
• When using thinner batters, reduce amount
of batter being used to a scant cup or even
three-quarters full, to prevent overow.
• For evenly lled wafes, pour the batter into
the center of the lower grid and spread out
evenly to the edges.
• If wafes tend to stick to wafe grids,
lightly brush the plates with additional
vegetable oil.
• Belgian wafes taste best when made to order,
but baked Belgian wafes may be kept warm
in a 200˚F oven. Place them on a wire rack in
a sheet pan in the oven. Do not stack wafes
or they will lose their crispness.
• Baked wafes may be frozen. Allow them
to cool completely, and then place them in
a plastic food storage bag. Use waxed paper
to keep wafes separated. Reheat in an oven,
toaster or toaster oven when ready to serve.

Service, California residents have the option
of returning a nonconforming product (A)

either repair the product, refer the consumer
to an independent repair facility, replace the
product, or refund the purchase price less the
amount directly attributable to the consumer’s
prior usage of the product. If neither of the above
two options results in the appropriate relief to
the consumer, the consumer may then take
the product to an independent repair facility,
if service or repair can be economically
accomplished. Cuisinart and not the consumer
will be responsible for the reasonable cost of
such service, repair, replacement, or refund
for nonconforming products under warranty.
