How To Use Your Waffle Maker
1. Be sure the Cooking Plates are clean and free from dust.
If necessary, wipe with a damp cloth.
2. When using the Waffle Maker for the first time, brush the
Cooking Plates with cooking oil.
NOTE: The Waffle Maker is coated with a non-stick surface.
Do not use spray-on oils, grease or shortening, as they
can cause build-up on the Cooking Plates. Use cooking
oil instead.
3. Close the Lid.
4. Plug appliance into a suitable 120V AC electrical outlet; the
Cook Light will illuminate, indicating the unit has begun heating.
5. While preparing batter, allow appliance to pre-heat (about
5 minutes). The Cook Light will go off when unit has reached
the proper temperature.
6. Open Waffle Maker and pour batter evenly to cover the Cooking
Plates. Be careful not to pour too much batter, as excess batter
will seep out of Cooking Plates.
7. Carefully close the Waffle Maker. Do not force shut. Steam
will be released between the Cooking Plates. Caution
should be taken to prevent hands from coming into contact
with the steam.
8. Cooking time should take approximately 3-5 minutes. Exact
cooking time will be a matter of your taste and will depend on
type of batter and ingredients used. The Cook Light turns on
and off as the unit cycles to maintain ideal heating temper-
atures; this prevents overheating. Avoid opening your Waffle
Maker before cooking is completed, as this may cause the
waffle to stick or bake poorly.
9. When the waffles are cooked, remove them by using a plastic
or wooden spatula. Do not use metal tongs or knives, as these
may damage the non stick coating.
10. Keep the Waffle Maker closed to preserve the heat until ready
for the next batch of waffles.
11. After use, immediately unplug from the electrical outlet.
12. If waffles are not to be consumed immediately, place the waffles
on a paper napkin to absorb condensation. To keep hot, place
on a rack in an ovenproof dish and warm in the oven at about
200°-250°F. Waffles will keep for about 20 minutes and then
begin to dry out.
