USING THE WAFFLE BAKER
1. With both Plates installed Waffle side up, condition each Plate.
To condition, brush the exposed Waffle surface with cooking oil
and close the Lid. This needs to be done before each use.
NOTE: The Waffle Baker is coated with a non-stick surface. Do
not use spray-on oils, grease or shortening, as they can cause
build-up on the Reversible Plates. Use cooking oil instead.
2. Plug appliance into 120V AC electrical outlet. The Ready Light
Indicator will illuminate. Turn the Temperature Control Dial
to PREHEAT.
3. When the Ready Light Indicator goes off, the unit is ready for
use. Using a protective oven mitt, lift the Lid by the Handle and
pour approximately 1 cup of batter onto the lower Waffle Plate
using an “X” pattern and carefully close the Lid. Do not force
shut. Steam will be released between the Plates. Caution should
be taken to prevent hands from coming into contact with
the steam.
4. Turn the Temperature Control Dial to the desired setting. The
Ready Light Indicator will illuminate.
NOTE: The amount of batter used may vary with each recipe.
CAUTION: Do not leave the unit unattended during use!
CAUTION: To avoid burns, caution should be taken when
handling the Waffle Baker. The sides of the Reversible Plates
are exposed and may be hot.
5. When the Ready Light Indicator goes off the second time,
using a protective oven mitt, gently lift the Lid by the Handle to
check for brownness. If the Lid is difficult to lift, the waffle may
not be done. Close the Lid and watch for steaming to stop
before checking again.
