IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using an electrical appliance, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

1. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS.

2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handle.

3. To protect against fire, electrical shock, and injury to persons, DO NOT IMMERSE CORD, PLUG, OR UNIT in water or other liquids.

4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.

5. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning appliance.

6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Return appliance to the nearest Cuisinart

Authorized Service Facility for

examination, repair, or adjustment.

7. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by Cuisinart may result in fire, electrical shock, or injury to persons.

8. Do not use outdoors.

9. Do not let power cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.

10. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.

11. Do not use appliance for other than intended use.

12. Always unplug the unit when finished baking waffles.

13. To safely disconnect power at any time, remove the plug from the outlet.

14. Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot oil or other hot liquids.

15. WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK

OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, REPAIR SHOULD BE DONE ONLY BY AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL. NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS ARE INSIDE.

16. Do not operate your appliance in an appli-ance garage or under a wall cabinet.

When storing in an appliance garage

always unplug the unit from the electrical outlet. Not doing so could create a risk of

fire, especially if the appliance touches the walls of the garage or the door touches the unit as it closes.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY

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.

Longer extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.

If a long 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.

NOTICE

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug will fit in a polarized out

let only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way.

7. Rubber Feet – Feet keep unit steady and

won’t mark countertop.

8. Locking Lid – For upright storage.

BEFORE THE FIRST USE

Remove all packaging and any promotional labels or stickers from your waffle maker. Be sure that all parts (listed in, 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 flavorless vegetable oil. If using oil, apply it 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 and the unit will begin to heat. When the waffle maker has reached desired temperature, the green indicator light will turn on. 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 center 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. 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, CARE AND MAINTENANCE

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 approxi

mately 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. NEVER WASH UNDER TAP WATER.

Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized service represen

tative.

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 latch

ing feature so the lid stays closed during storage.

ABOUT THE RECIPES

Nutritional information is based on number of servings indicated. If a recipe produces a range of servings, information is based on the highest serving yield for that particular recipe.

thoroughly in a large mixing bowl.

2. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry

place for up to 6 months. You can store in the refrigerator for ultimate freshness.

* Buttermilk powder is available in most

grocery stores. If you cannot find it, substituting nonfat dry milk is acceptable, but the results will not be as moist.
