This product has a polarized plug (i.e., one blade is wider than the other). To protect against re,
electrical shock, and injury to persons, the plug is intended to t into a polarized outlet only one

A short-power supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or
tripping over a longer cord. Extension cords may be used if care is properly exercised in their use.
If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should 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.
Connect the power supply cord to a 120VAC outlet only.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Place the wafe maker on a hard, at, heat-resistant surface, away from any edges. Plug
into a 120 v, AC outlet ONLY. Never place the wafe maker on a plastic table cloth or any
other material that is not heat-resistant.
2. Choose desired cooking temperature on the temperature dial, #1 for the lightest
wafes, #8 for the darkest.
3. When the signal light goes out, the wafe maker is preheated and ready for use.
4. Before the rst use, after the wafe maker is preheated, carefully use a brush or paper
towel and apply a light coating of cooking oil to the plates. Note: Do not use a baking or
nonstick sprays. Avoid using anything made of nylon or synthetic bers that may melt
when heated. Use less oil for your second use, and no oil should be needed for subsequent
uses. If you nd it difcult to remove a wafe, be sure to apply a light coating of oil during
the following uses.
5. Using Dough: Place a ball of dough (approx. 2-3’’ in size) in the center of each of the
sections of the bottom wafe plate. Close the wafe maker and, if necessary, press the two
handles together so the plates touch. The cover may lift slightly due to steam pressure in
the dough. This is normal.
Using Batter: Use a ladle to pour a sufcient amount of batter to cover the entire baking
surface of the bottom plate. Close the wafe maker and turn it over by grasping both
handles rmly and pivoting on its base. This will spread the batter to the other plate.
6. When nished, the color of the wafe should be brown. Light brown means the wafes are
chewy, dark brown are crisp and crusty.
7. To remove wafes after baking, insert our 2-pronged wafe fork (or, if unavailable, a nonmetallic utensil) horizontally into the wafe. Remove the wafe from the plate and serve.
8. When nished making wafes, unplug the wafe maker and allow it to cool completely, in
the open position, before cleaning or putting away.
Note: When using the wafe maker for the rst time, a slight odor or smoking may occur. This
is normal, and common to appliances with a nonstick surface.
