7. 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
authorized Oster service facility for examination, repair or adjustment. Do not
attempt to replace or splice a damaged cord.

8. In order to avoid the risk of an electric shock, never try to repair the Flip Belgian

Wae Maker yourself. Take it to an authorized service center for examination and
repair. An incorrect reassembly could present a risk of electric shock when the Flip
Belgian Wae Maker is used.

9. The use of accessories or attachments not recommended by the manufacturer may

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

THIS UNIT IS INTENDED FOR

HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.

POLARIZED PLUG

This appliance has a polarized plug, (one blade is wider than
the other). As a safety feature to reduce the risk of electrical
shock, this plug is intended to t in a polarized outlet only

one way. If the plug does not t fully in the outlet, reverse
the plug. If it still does not t, contact a qualied electrician. Do not attempt to defeat
this safety feature or modify the plug in any way. If the plug ts loosely into the AC
outlet or if the AC outlet feels warm do not use that outlet.

EXTENSION CORD USE

A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled
in or tripping over a longer cord. An extension cord may be used if care is exercised in its
use. If an extension cord is used, the electrical rating of the cord must be at least as great as
the electrical rating of the appliance. The extension cord should be arranged so that it will
not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped
over unintentionally.

HOW TO:

USING YOUR OSTER® FLIP BELGIAN WAFFLE MAKER

For best results, follow these simple instructions.

When your wae maker is heated for the rst time, it may
emit slight smoke or odor. This is normal with many heating
appliances. This does not aect the safety of your appliance.
However, it may aect the avor of the rst set of waes
prepared in your wae maker, and it is recommended that
you discard these.

Preparing Your Flip Belgian Wae Maker for the First
Time.

1 Before use, wash the wae cooking plates with warm soapy

water, and dry completely.

CAUTION: Do not immerse WAFFLE MAKER in water or other

liquid.

2 Close the wae maker and plug it into the wall outlet. You

will notice that the red power light will turn on. Green ready
light will not turn on yet. It will remain o until the desired
temperature is reached. Turn the temperature control knob
to the desired setting. It will take approximately 5 to 8
minutes to reach baking temperature. When the green ready
light goes on, the wae maker is ready for use. The green
ready light will turn o while heating up.

Baking

1 When the proper baking temperature is reached, the green

light will go on. Once heated up, cycle times will be faster.

2 Pour batter onto bottom grid of wae maker. Ladle just

enough batter to ll lower grid so that the peak area of the
grid is covered. If necessary, use a spatula to spread the
batter in to the corners of the grid. At this point the green
light will go o as the baking cycle begins.

3 Close wae maker and rotate unit 180º to the right

(clockwise). Do not open for at least 1

1

⁄2 minutes. Opening

the lid too soon will cause under-baked waes to split,
making them dicult to remove.

4 When the green light goes on again, rotate wae maker 180º

to the left (counterclockwise). Your waes should be done
according to the Wae Temperature Control setting that
you’ve chosen. If you want them darker, close the lid and
continue baking until the desired color is achieved.

5 Remove waes from the cooking plate.
6 If additional baking is to be done, close wae maker to

retain heat. Always be sure the green light goes on again
before making more waes.

7 If you need to take a short break, close wae maker to

maintain heat. When you return to baking, you will notice
that the rst waes will bake faster because extra heat has
been allowed to build up.

8 When baking is complete, simply unplug the power cord

from wall outlet. Leave wae maker open to cool. Do not
clean until unit has cooled.

USING THE KEEP WARM SETTING

Your Oster® Flip Wae Maker features a Keep Warm setting. The
keep warm setting is convenient for entertaining until you’re ready
to serve. When your food is done cooking, simply switch the
temperature dial to the keep warm setting and the wae maker
will maintain a low heat to keep your food warm until you are ready
serve.

Wae Baking Tips

1 Set the Wae Temperature Control to your desired setting.

At rst, try a setting in the middle. You may later adjust
it lower or higher according to your preference. A lower
setting produces a lighter colored wae, while waes
made at a higher setting are darker and crisper. Dierent
wae batters will also cook up dierently. Over time, you
will nd your perfect setting for the batter you use.

2 When preparing wae batter, do not over mix or waes

will be tough. Stir batter only until large lumps of dry
ingredients disappear.

3 The optimal amount of batter to produce a full-shaped

wae, without overowing, will vary with dierent wae
batters. Pouring batter from a measuring cup will help you
gauge how much batter to use each time. Fill bottom grid
of wae maker with enough batter to cover peak areas of
the grid.

4 For more evenly shaped waes, spread thick batters to

outer edge of grid, using a heat proof spatula or other non­metallic utensil before closing lid.

5 Cake-based waes, such as the Chocolate Waes are more

tender than regular waes, and may require more care
when removing from wae maker. You may want to break
these waes into halves or quarters before removing. Use
a spatula to support waes when removing from the
wae maker.

6 To retain crispness, move baked waes to a wire cooling

rack to prevent steam from accumulating underneath.

7 When serving several waes at one time, keep waes

hot and crisp by placing on a rack in a preheated 200°F
oven until ready to serve.

8 Already cooled waes can be re-warmed and re-crisped,

individually, by returning to hot wae maker. Set Wae
Temperature Control to low. Place wae on grid so grooves
match up; close lid and heat for 1 to 2 minutes, watching
carefully to prevent burning.

9 Baked waes freeze well. Cool completely on wire rack.

Store in plastic freezer bag or in covered container,
separating waes with wax paper. Reheat frozen waes
in toaster oven, oven or toaster until hot and crisp.

CARE & CLEANING

Your Oil Infused DuraCeramic™ Wae Maker should be
cleaned after every use.

1 Unplug the Wae Maker and allow it to cool before cleaning.
NOTE: To protect the Oil Infused DuraCeramic™ coating, do not

run cold water over cooking surface immediately after use.
2 Wipe down the cooking surface with a damp cloth and dry

thoroughly. DO NOT use steel wool or other metal pads as
this may scratch the surface.

3 The wae maker is NOT dishwasher safe. You may wash it

with hot soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly.

For proper care of your Oil Infused DuraCeramic™ coated
wae maker, follow the following steps if stubborn stains
appear:

1 Sprinkle some baking soda on the stained area.
2 Add enough water to moisten the baking soda, making a

paste like texture.

3 Let sit for a few minutes (for tougher stains let sit up to an

hour).

4 Lightly scrub with a plastic scouring pad or damp cloth and

dry thoroughly.

5 Repeat if necessary.
ANY SERVICE REQUIRING DISASSEMBLY OTHER THAN THE ABOVE
CLEANING MUST BE PERFORMED BY AN AUTHORIZED OSTER®
SERVICE CENTER.

Questions? Please call 800.334.0759 or visit us at www.oster.com.
Should any stubborn stains appear, they will not aect the

performance and non-stick quality of the Oil Infused DuraCeramic™
coating.

STORAGE AND MAINTENANCE

• Unplug cord. Allow appliance to cool before storing. Store your
wae maker in a dry location, such as on a tabletop or
countertop, or on a cupboard shelf. Wind the electrical cord
into a coil and secure with a twist fastener. For convenience,
Rotate the wae maker vertically and place the drip tray next
to it (tting in the grooves).

Other than recommended cleaning, no further user maintenance is
necessary.
