MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
BURN HAZARD
Exposed surfaces of the
wafe baker may be hot to the
touch and can cause burns.
Wafe baker grids are very
hot and will cause serious
burns on contact.
Proper temperature for baking
wafes is 390ºF (200ºC).
Variations in altitude and/
or batter mix may require a
slightly different temperature
for best results.
SET BAKING TEMPERATURE
Wells wafe bakers are factory set for 390ºF ±5ºF (200ºC ± 3ºC).
CHECK TEMPERATURE
1. Use a digital thermometer with an oven probe.
2. Place the probe on the lower grid, then gently close the upper
grid.
3. Press the power switch “ON”. Wait 15 minutes for the wafe
baker to come up to heat, and for the temperature to stabilize.
4. Read the temperature on the digital thermometer.
ADJUST TEMPERATURE
1. Unplug the unit from the electrical source
2. Each wafe baker section has an individual temperature
control. Remove the rear panel.
2. Use a thin at-blade screwdriver to turn the temperature
adjustment dial. Rotate clockwise to increase temperature;
counter-clockwise to decrease temperature.
NOTE: Make small incremental changes only.
4. Plug unit back in, turn on and allow ample time for
temperature to stabilize before making another adjustment.
5. When desired temperature is reached reinstall the rear panel.
