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 handles and knobs.
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.Unplug the unit when finished baking waffles.
12.Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
13.Always attach plug to appliance first, then plug cord into the wall outlet. To disconnect, turn control to setting #1, then remove 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 appliance 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 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.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
1.Before using your Cuisinart® Classic Waffle 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 go on to signal power. Allow the waffle maker to preheat. The green indicator light will go on when it is ready to use.
Note: The first time you use your waffle maker, it may have a slight odor and may smoke a bit. This is normal, and common to appliances with a nonstick surface.
3.Pour batter when green indicator light goes on. Pour batter onto the center of the lower waffle grid. Use a heat-proof plastic spatula to spread batter evenly over the grids. 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 normal.
5.Once the waffles are ready to eat, the green light will again come on.
6.Baking time is determined by browning level. Choose a setting on the browning control dial. We recommend using setting #3 for golden brown waffles.
7.Once the waffle is ready, remove it by gently loosening the edges with a heat-proof plastic spatula. Never use metal utensils, as they may damage the nonstick coating.
8.Always disconnect the plug from the wall outlet once baking is completed.

Note: The Cuisinart® Classic 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 oil with a paper towel or pastry brush. You may find it helpful to repeat this process before each use of the waffle maker.

TIPS TO MAKE
PERFECT WAFFLES
We recommend setting #3 for golden brown waffles.
If you prefer crisper, darker waffles, increase the browning control to setting #4 or 5.
For evenly filled waffles, pour the batter onto the center of the lower grid and close the cover.
We recommend using 1/2 cup batter per waffle for evenly filled waffles.
Waffles are best when made to order, but baked waffles may be kept warm in a 200°F oven. Place in a baking pan or wrap in foil while in the oven. Waffles wrapped in foil may lose their crispiness.
Baked waffles may be frozen. Allow to cool completely, then place in plastic food storage bag. Use waxed paper to keep waffles separated. Reheat in a toaster or toaster oven when ready to use.
SUGGESTED TOPPINGS
Maple syrup, fruit syrups Warm fruit compote, fruit sauce
Fresh berries, chopped fruit, chopped nuts Powdered sugar
Whipped cream, ice cream, sorbet Chocolate sauce
Fruited yogurt

CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE
Once you have finished baking, remove plug from electrical outlet. Leave top lid open so grids begin to cool.
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 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, thus 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.
Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized service representative
STORAGE
Store with cord wrapped securely around base. Plug prongs fit into the special grooves on the side of the waffle maker. For compact storage, stand waffle maker on opening end so Cuisinart logo is facing you. The waffle maker has been designed with a special latching feature so the lid stays closed during storage.
