Parts & Features

Using Your Ceramic Mini Waffle Maker

Before first use, remove all packaging materials and thoroughly clean your Ceramic Mini Waffle Maker.

• Never touch the Cooking Surface or Cover while the appliance is in use.
• DO NOT lift the Cover so that your arm is over the Cooking Surface as it is hot and may cause injury.
• Always lift and lower the Cover by the Cover Handle. Lift from the side.

1. Place the appliance on a stable and dry surface. Plug the cord into a power outlet. The Indicator Light will illuminate (photo A), signaling that the Ceramic Mini Waffle Maker is heating up.

3. Carefully lift the Cover by the Cover Handle and spray both Cooking Surfaces with a small amount of cooking spray (photo C).
4. Place or pour batter onto the Cooking Surface (photo D) and close the Cover.
   • Chef Tip
   • Aerosol cooking sprays often contain additives that can cause nonstick surfaces to become sticky and hard to clean over time. To ensure the longevity of your product, use a spray bottle and a neutral oil (vegetable, canola, etc.) to lubricate cooking surfaces.
5. Once waffle is cooked to your preference, carefully remove it from the Cooking Surface with a heat-resistant nylon or silicone cooking utensil (photo E).
6. When you have finished cooking, unplug your Ceramic Mini Waffle Maker and allow it to cool before moving or cleaning (photo F).

NOTE: Do not use metal utensils to remove or place food on the Cooking Surface as this will damage the nonstick surface.

Cleaning & Maintenance

Always allow the appliance to cool completely before moving, cleaning or storing. In order to keep your Ceramic Mini Waffle Maker in pristine working order, thoroughly clean the appliance after each use. This will prevent the build-up of food or oil.

Troubleshooting

While Dash products are durable, you may encounter one or more of the problems listed below. If the issue is either not solved by the solutions recommended below or not included on this page, please contact our Customer Support team at 1-800-898-6970 or support@bydash.com.

This is normal. During the cooking process, the heating element will automatically turn on and off to regulate the temperature and ensure that the Cooking Surface does not get too hot or cold. When this occurs, the Indicator Light turns on and off.

How do I know when the Ceramic Mini Waffle Maker is heated and ready to use?

|

When the Ceramic Mini Waffle Maker reaches the optimal temperature, the Indicator Light shuts off and that means you’re ready to get cooking!

There is no On/Off Button. How do I turn the Ceramic Mini Waffle Maker off and on?

|

To turn on, simply plug in the power cord. When you’re done cooking, turn off the Ceramic Mini Maker Waffle by unplugging it.

When using my Ceramic Mini Waffle Maker, the Cover gets very hot. Is this normal?

| Yes, this is completely normal. When using your Ceramic Mini Waffle Maker, always lift and lower the Cover by the Cover Handle. To prevent personal injury, DO NOT lift the Cover so that your arm is over the Cooking Surface as it is hot and may cause injury. Lift from

the side.

---|---

After using my Ceramic Mini Waffle Maker a few times, food is starting to stick to the surface. What is happening?

| There is probably a build-up of burnt food residue on the Cooking Surface. This is normal, especially when cooking with sugar. Allow the appliance to cool fully, pour on a little cooking oil and let sit for 5–10 minutes. Scrub the Cooking Surface with the Cleaning Brush to dislodge food. Use a damp, soapy cloth to wipe down the Surface. Rinse the cloth and wipe again. If food remains, pour on cooking oil and let sit for a few hours, then scrub and wipe clean.

The Indicator Light will not turn on and the Cooking Surface is failing to heat.

1.        Ensure that the power cord is plugged into the power outlet.

2.        Check to make sure the power outlet is operating correctly.

3.        Determine if a power failure has occurred in your home, apartment or building.
