POLARIZATION
INSTRUCTIONS
For your protection, the
Cuisinart® Flip Belgian
Wafe Maker is supplied
with a polarized plug (one
blade is wider than the
other). To reduce the risk
of re, this plug will t in a
polarized outlet only one
way. If the plug does not t fully in the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not t, contact a
qualied electrician for assistance. Do not modify
the plug in any way.
SPECIAL CORD SET
INSTRUCTIONS
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce
the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or
tripping over a longer cord. Extension cords may
be used if care is exercised in their use.
If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical
rating of the extension cord should be at least
as great as the electrical rating of the appliance,
and the longer cord should be arranged so that
it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop
where it can be pulled on by children or animals,
or tripped over. The extension cord should be for
a polarized plug and outlet.
This appliance is for 120 volts only and should
not be used with a converter.

BEFORE FIRST USE
Before using your Cuisinart® Flip Belgian Wafe
Maker for the rst time, remove any dust from
shipping by wiping the plates with a damp cloth.
Remove all packaging and any promotional labels
or stickers from your wafe maker. Be sure that
all parts (listed in Parts and Features) of your
new wafe maker have been included before
discarding any packing materials. You may
want to keep the box and packing materials
for storage.
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.
OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Place the Cuisinart® Flip Belgian Wafe Maker
on a clean, at surface.
2. Plug the power cord into a standard electrical
outlet.
3. To preheat your Cuisinart® Flip Belgian Wafe
Maker, turn the control knob dial to your
preferred setting. The Ready indicator light
will light up when fully heated. (Heat-up time
should take approximately four minutes for the
rst wafe of each baking session.)
4. After wafe maker is preheated, brush the
wafe plates with a avorless oil to thoroughly
coat all surfaces. It’s important that you
preheat the wafe maker before seasoning or
oil. Your wafe maker is now ready to bake.
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.
5. After the wafe maker is preheated and ready
for baking, open the wafe maker lid.
6. Fill the provided batter cup with batter. If using
a standard measuring cup, ll to 1 cup. Pour
the batter evenly across the wafe plate. Use a
heatproof spatula to spread the batter evenly
over the grids.
7. Close the lid and rotate the handle 180° to
the right. The Ready indicator light will turn
off. NOTE: Baking time is determined by the
browning setting chosen. It may take up to 3
minutes longer to bake your wafes on a higher
setting.
8. When the wafe is baked, the Ready indicator
light will turn on. Rotate the handle 180° to the
left and open the lid. To remove the wafe,
gently loosen the edges with a heatproof
spatula. Never use stainless steel utensils, as
they may damage the nonstick coating.
9. Repeat the above process if making additional
wafes. It is not necessary to oil/grease the
wafe grids before each new wafe.
When you are finished baking, always unplug
the power cord from the wall outlet. Allow the
waffle maker to cool down completely before
handling.
The wafe plates have been treated with a
special nonstick PFOA-free coating. Before the
rst use, we suggest you season the grids with
avorless vegetable oil. Apply oil with a paper
towel or pastr y brush.
CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE
Once you have nished baking, remove plug from
electrical outlet. Leave the top lid open and allow
grids to cool before cleaning.
Never take your wafe maker apart for cleaning.
Simply 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.
Be certain grids have cooled completely
before cleaning. If batter adheres to plates,
simply pour a little cooking oil onto the baked-on
batter and let stand approximately 5 minutes.
This will soften the batter 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.
Hand-wash drip tray.
Maintenance: Any other servicing should
be performed by an authorized service
representative.
5
TIPS AND HINTS
• Packaged wafe mixes found in most
supermarkets may be used with this unit.
• For best results, we recommend lling the
supplied measuring cup to the top so it will
ll the wafe, unless suggested otherwise in
recipes. Thinner batters may require a little less
batter, and thicker batters may require a little
more.
• For evenly lled wafes, pour the batter into the
center of the lower plate and spread out evenly
to the edges. The entire wafe plate should be
lled.
• For added convenience while baking wafes,
rest the measuring cup on the lip of the bowl
containing the batter until the next baking cycle.
• We recommend turning the browning control
dial to setting #3 when using 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.
• Belgian wafes taste best when made to order,
but baked Belgian wafes may be kept warm
in a 200˚F oven. Place them in a baking pan
or wrap them in foil while in the oven. Wafes
wrapped in foil may 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.

WARRANTY
Limited Three-Year Warranty
This warranty is available to U.S. consumers
only. You are a consumer if you own a Cuisinart
Flip Belgian Waffle Maker that was purchased at
retail for personal, family or household use.
Except as otherwise required under applicable
law, this warranty is not available to retailers or
other commercial purchasers or owners. We
warrant that your Cuisinart
®
Flip Belgian Waffle
Maker will be free of defects in materials and
workmanship under normal home use for 3 years
from the date of original purchase.
We recommend that you visit our website,
www.cuisinart.com for a fast, efficient way to
complete your product registration. However,
product registration does not eliminate the need
for the consumer to maintain the original proof of
purchase in order to obtain the warranty
benefits. In the event that you do not have proof
of purchase date, the purchase date for
purposes of this warranty will be the date of
manufacture.
CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS ONLY
California law provides that for In-Warranty
Service, California residents have the option of
returning a nonconforming product (A) to the
store where it was purchased or (B) to another
retail store that sells Cuisinart products of the
same type. The retail store shall then, according
to its preference, 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. California residents
may also, according to their preference, return
nonconforming products directly to Cuisinart for
repair or, if necessar y, replacement by calling our
Consumer Service Center toll-free at 800-726-
0190. Cuisinart will be responsible for the cost of
the repair, replacement, and shipping and
