CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION
This appliance is intended for household use only. To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do not operate another high
wattage appliance on the same circuit with the waffle baker. Model 26400: This appliance is equipped with a polarized plug.
This type of plug has one blade wider than the other. The plug will fit into an electrical outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact an electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
Model 26500: This appliance is equipped with a grounded-type 3-wire cord (3-prong plug). The plug will only fit into an electrical outlet made for a 3-prong plug. This is a safety feature. If the plug should fail to fit, contact an electrician to replace the obsolete out­let. Do not attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the grounding pin, part of the 3-prong plug.
This appliance has a short cord to reduce the hazards of becoming entangled or tripping over a longer cord. An extension cord may be used if the electrical rating is equal to or greater than the rating of the waffle baker. If polarized plug, an extension cord rated at least
13 amperes may be used. If 3-prong plug, a grounded type 3-wire extension cord (3-prong plug) rated at least 13 amperes may be used. 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 tripped over.

Recipes
TIPS: The Belgian waffle grid holds more batter than a tradi­tional grid. These recipes give a range of batter to use, for example,2⁄3 to3⁄4 cup. The larger amount should be used for a Belgian waffle grid.
Waffles can be frozen and then reheated. Make a large batch ahead of time and let cool on a cooling rack. Freeze in air­tight storage bags then heat in an oven or microwave.
