BEFORE THE FIRST USE
Remove all packaging and any promotional labels

parts (listed above,
Parts and Features) of your
new waffle maker have been included before
discarding any packaging materials. You may
want to keep the box and packing materials for
use at a later date.
Before using your Cuisinart
®
4-Slice Belgian Waffle
Maker for the first time, wipe housing and baking
plates with a damp cloth to remove any dust from
the warehouse or shipping.
Note: The Cuisinart
®
4-Slice Belgian Waffle Maker
has been treated with a special nonstick coating.
Before the first use, we suggest you season the
grids with cooking spray or flavourless vegetable
oil. If using oil, apply oil with a paper towel or pastry
brush. You may find it helpful to repeat this process
before each use of the waffle maker.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Place the closed waffle maker on a clean, flat
surface where you intend to use it.
2. Plug the power cord into a standard
electrical outlet.
3. Move the temperature slide control to the
desired browning setting – setting #1 for the
lightest colour waffles and setting #5 for the
darkest colour waffles.
The red indicator light will turn on to signal that the
power is on. Allow the waffle maker to heat up.
When the waffle maker has reached desired temperature, the green indicator light will turn on and the
audible tone will sound. You are now ready to begin.
Note: The first time you use your waffle maker it
may have a slight odour and may smoke a bit. This
is normal, and common to appliances with a
nonstick surface.
4. Lift lid of waffle maker by grasping the handle
and pushing up in one fluid motion. Lid will
stay open at a 105° position until you lower it.
5. Pour batter onto the centre of the lower
waffle grid. Use a heat-proof spatula to
spread batter evenly over the grid. Close
the lid. The green light will turn off but the
red light will stay illuminated.
6. Baking time is determined by the browning
level that you chose in Step 3. It may take
up to 6 minutes to bake your waffles on
setting #5.
7. When the waffles are ready, the green light
will turn on and the audible tone will sound.
Remove the waffles by gently loosening the
edges with a heat-proof plastic spatula or
wooden spatula. Never use metal utensils, as
they will damage the nonstick coating.
8. When you are finished baking, unplug the
power cord from the wall outlet. Allow the
waffle maker to cool down completely before
handling.
CLEANING AND CARE
Once you have finished baking, remove plug from
electrical outlet. Leave lid open so grids begin to
cool. Allow waffle maker to cool down completely
before handling.
Never take your waffle 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 also 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 batter and let stand approximately
5 minutes, allowing it 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 LIQUID.
STORAGE/
LOCKING LID
Store with cord wrapped
securely under base. For
compact storage, stand
waffle maker on back end
with control panel facing up.
The waffle maker has been
designed with a special
latching feature so the lid
stays closed during storage.
