GENERAL INSTALLATION DATA

For your protection, we recommend that a qualifi ed electrician install this appliance. The
electrician should be familiar with electrical installations and your local electrical requirements.
Proper connections and power supply are essential for effi cient performance. The supply circuit
should be properly fused as required by electrical code. Plug the unit into a proper A.C. voltage
wall outlet only. A three-prong plug is provided with the unit. If an adapter is used be sure a

good ground is provided.

LOAD

The rated load is on the nameplate. The line in the wall outlet must be heavy enough to carry
this load, or the waffl e baker will be slow in performance.

WARNING

DO NOT CONNECT TO DIRECT CURRENT (DC).

TEFLON® COATED WAFFLE BAKERS

CAUTION
DO NOT USE METAL UTENSILS TO REMOVE WAFFLE FROM THE TEFLON®
COATED WAFFLE BAKER. THIS WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.

CAUTION
DO NOT CLEAN TEFLON® GRIDS WITH ABRASIVES. THIS WILL VOID THE
WARRANTY.

CORD, PLUG AND GROUND INSTRUCTIONS

For your protection, this appliance is equipped with a 3-conductor load cord, having a grounding
type plug. It should only be used with a properly grounded 3-prong receptacle. Do not modify.
If you use an adapter be sure your system is grounded. Connect the green wire to a mounting
screw of the receptacle. For ungrounded electrical systems, connect the green wire of the

adapter to a known permanent ground.

RELEASE AGENT CAUTION

If you fi nd it necessary to use a release agent to keep waffl es from sticking, you should brush it
on. Spraying may oversaturate the grids and the excess has the possibility of building up inside
the baker and causing damage. If you only have a spray type release agent, try spraying it into

a container and using the contents with a pastry brush.

SEASONING WAFFLE GRIDS
(Not applicable to Tefl on ® coated grids)

With a pastry brush, apply vegetable oil, butter, or grid release agent on both grids. Turn power
on and allow to preheat for twenty minutes. Lift the lid and re-apply vegetable oil, butter, or grid

release agent. Allow the unit to heat for fi ve more minutes. The baker is now ready for use.

CAUTION
GRIDS AND CUPS HAVE VERY HIGH TEMPERATURES. DO NOT COME IN DIRECT
CONTACT WITH THESE PARTS WHEN THE WAFFLE BAKER IS IN OPERATION.
DO NOT ALLOW CORD TO COME INTO CONTACT WITH HOT GRIDS.

GENERAL OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

WAFFLES

Turn the unit on and allow to pre-heat for 15 minutes with the grids closed.
Once the baker has reached proper temperature you can proceed as follows:

1. Lift the lid, pour in mix and close.

2. Rotate grids 180o. (Belgian units only)

3. Start timer by pressing the start/stop pad.

4. When timer beeps, depress the start/ stop pad.

5. Rotate grids 180o (Belgian units only)

6. Remove waffl e. (Do not use metal utensils on tefl on coated waffl e bakers.)

7. For next waffl e repeat steps 1 through 6.

Setting the Time:

If necessary, the factory pre-set timer can be adjusted to satisfy individual preferences.

To increase time, depress and hold the "up" button. The start/ stop
button can now be used to increase baking time.

To decrease time, depress and hold the “down” button. The “start/
stop” button can now be used to decrease baking time.

HELPFUL HINTS

1. During long slack periods of the day, turn off the baker. During short slack periods, leave unit
on with the grids closed. This will help minimize carbon buildup.

2. Do not store batter in the refrigerator and expect the same speed in baking. Cold batter will
take longer to bake.

3. For proper release of waffl es it is important that the batter contain the proper amount of
shortening.

CLEANING

For non-coated grids: Clean outside of baker every day that it is in use. Clean grids with hot water
and mild detergent and a nylon brush to prevent a buildup of carbon from forming. In order to
remove carbon from grids, unplug the unit, place ammonia soaked cloth over bottom grid, close
and leave overnight. A nylon brush may then be used to remove the carbon buildup. If you use
a commercial carbon remover, make sure that it is safe for aluminum.

CAUTION

DO NOT CLEAN USING A WATER JET OR SIMILAR DEVICE FOR CLEANING. DO
NOT IMMERSE IN WATER AT ANY TIME.

CAUTION

DO NOT CLEAN TEFLON® GRIDS WITH ABRASIVES. THIS WILL VOID THE
WARRANTY.

For cleaning the baker outside use only a soft cloth and mild soap to keep the exterior surfaces
bright and shining. Do not use detergents, strong abrasives or metal scouring pads on the exterior
surfaces of the waffl e baker.
