Other Consumer Safety Information

This appliance is intended for household use only.

w WARNING

with a polarized plug (one wide blade) to reduce 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.

Electrical Shock Hazard: This appliance is provided

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.

3-Way Mess-Free Waffle Features

1. The premeasured scoop is

the perfect size for measuring and pouring batter. Use two scoops for Belgium waffles.

2. Deep grids leave room for

waffles to rise while baking.

3. Extra-deep overflow channel

gives

excess batter a place to go without dripping outside the waffle maker.

How to Use

w WARNING

when opening a hot waffle maker. Escaping steam can burn.

Burn Hazard. Always use an oven mitt to protect hand

1. Plug into outlet. The red Power

ON light comes on. Do not preheat or operate unit unless grids are in place. TIP: A small amount of nonstick cooking spray can be used on the grids before preheating.

2. Choose desired waffle heat

setting and preheat with cover closed until the green READY light comes on. TIP: Waffle color and crispness are determined by the temperature of the grids. The higher the temperature, the browner and crisper the waffle.

5. Using an oven mitt, open cover. Remove waffle with plastic or

wooden utensil. Never use metal. This will damage the nonstick coating of the appliance. Turn control to “MIN.” Unplug unit when through cooking. Let cool.

3. Raise cover and pour two

FULL scoops of batter onto center of bottom cooking grid. The green READY light goes off. Lower cover. TIP: When adding nuts, fruits, or chocolate chips to your waffle, reduce the waffle batter by 2 tablespoons (30 ml).

4. Waffles are done in about

6 to 8 minutes, depending on the heat setting and type of recipe. Waffles are done when the green READY light turns back on, or when steaming begins to stop.

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 heat 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.

Care and Cleaning

1. Turn control to “MIN.” Unplug

unit when through cooking. Let cool.

2. Remove installed grids by

pressing the release buttons in the direction of the small arrow, pulling out grids.

Troubleshooting

PROBLEM PROBABLE CAUSE/SOLUTION

Low, poor, or slow heating.

Cooking too slow. • Ensure grids are fully installed. Waffles are too

light.

• Allow waffle maker to heat for 5 to 7 minutes before use.

• Adjust temperature towards MAX (darker setting).

w WARNING

Disconnect power before cleaning. Do not immerse cord, plug, or base in any liquid.

3. Wipe outside of unit with a

damp, soapy cloth. Do not use steel wool, scouring pads, or abrasive cleansers on any part of the unit. Never use sharp or pointed objects for cleaning.

Electrical Shock Hazard.

DISHWASHER-SAFE

4. DO NOT use the “SANI”

setting when washing in the dishwasher. “SANI” cycle temperatures could damage your product. The back sides of waffle and skillet grids may discolor. This is normal.
