HOW TO USE
This appliance is intended for household use only.
GETTING STARTED
• Remove all packing material, any stickers, and the plastic band around the
power plug.
• Remove and save literature.
1. Remove the cooking grids by pressing down on the grid clips at the front
of the unit and sliding the grids forward and out. Wash them with hot water
and dish soap, rinse, dry thoroughly, and replace them in the unit. When
replacing the grids, be sure the lip of each grid fits into the notch at the
back of the unit and that each is securely clipped into place before plugging
in and operating. Grids should have matching surfaces.
2. IMPORTANT: Condition the non-stick cooking surfaces with a light coating
of cooking oil before first use. Do not use non-stick cooking spray to
"condition." Brush the oil onto the cooking surfaces or wipe on with a paper
towel. Be sure to coat the cooking surfaces as this will reduce sticking.
Wipe off excess oil with paper towels. The first waffle may absorb excess oil
and appear greasy. If so, discard it.
BAKING WAFFLES
1. Be sure the Cooking Grids are securely attached
with the waffle sides showing. Close the unit and
plug the cord into a standard electrical outlet.
2. Turn the control knob to WAFFLES. The signal
light (A) will come on to indicate the unit is
heating. Use the pre-heat time to prepare your
batter (see "Recipes"). When the signal light
goes out (from 5-8 minutes), the unit is ready.
3. Open the unit and pour about 1 cup of batter onto the lower cooking
surface. Spread the batter toward the edges using a rubber spatula for
even waffles.
4. Carefully close the top. Keep hands away from the unit as steam may
escape when baking begins. The signal light will come back on and may
cycle on and off during baking. Cooking time is 3-5 minutes depending on
the type of batter/ingredients you used. The hinge between the sections is
designed to be loose. This allows the waffle to rise evenly and for steam to
escape during baking. You may also notice steam moisture on the sides or
near the handle. This is normal. Avoid opening the unit during baking cycle
as it may cause the waffle to stick or bake poorly.
5. When waffles are done, open the top and remove the waffle using a
rubber or wooden spatula. Be careful not to scratch the non-stick finish.
You may want to have a plate nearby when removing waffles in case they
separate as this unit is designed to semi-cut waffles into 4 sections. If
