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. 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
outlet 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.

Maker for the first time, remove any dust
from shipping by wiping the plates with a
damp cloth. Remove all protective paper
and wrapping.

2. Preheat the waffler. Close grids and plug cord
into a 120V AC wall outlet. The red light will

to preheat. The green indicator light will go on

3. Pour batter when the green indicator light
goes on, according to recipes provided. Pour
evenly in the center of the lower waffle grids.
Use a heat-proof spatula to spread the batter
evenly over the grid. Close the lid.

4. The green light will go off and the red light
will once again illuminate. It may take several
seconds for the red light to come on. This is
n o r m a l .

5. Once the waffles are ready to eat, the green
light will again come on. Baking time is
determined by the browning level setting
chosen on the browning control dial. For
golden brown waffles, we recommend using
setting #3 or #4.

6. Once the waffle is ready, remove it by gently
loosening the edges with a heat-resistant
plastic spatula. Never use metal utensils,
since they may damage the nonstick coating.

outlet once baking is completed.
