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.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug,
or after the appliance malfunctions or has been dropped or
damaged in any manner. Call our toll-free customer service
number for information on examination, repair, or adjustment.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
Other Consumer Safety Information
This product is intended for household use only.
WARNING! Shock Hazard: This appliance has a polarized plug (one
wide blade) that reduces the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only
one way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of
the plug by modifying the plug in any way or by using an adapter.
If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still
does not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet.
The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce
the hazards of becoming tangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may be
used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to
or greater than the rating of the appliance. Care must be taken to
arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally
tripped over.
To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do not use another highwattage appliance on the same circuit with this appliance.

Usage Tips
• To make your family a quick, hot breakfast, use any of the waffle
mixes currently available on the market.
• Use a cooking spray before pouring batter into the grids, especially
for dessert waffles or recipes with a lot of sugar.
• If your waffles start to stick, the grids may need to be scrubbed with
a nylon brush to remove any cooked-on food particles.
• If using nuts in waffle batter, use chopped nuts and/or evenly
spread batter to allow lid to fully close.
• Waffles can be made ahead of time and kept warm in a 200ºF
(93ºC) oven.
• Reheat in a microwave oven, a toaster oven, or a regular oven.
• Most waffles are done in about 6–8 minutes, depending on the
setting selected. Some of the recipes which are made from scratch
may take a little longer. Check for doneness at about 5 minutes.
If the cover of the waffle maker doesn’t lift up easily, then let the
waffle cook a minute more before checking again. Another indicator
that the waffle is done is when the green READY light comes on or
when the steaming slows or stops.
• To store, let waffles cool and pack in an airtight container; store in
refrigerator or freezer for reheating later.

for your area. To locate the Cooperative Extension service in your
