IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed,
including the following:

  1. Read all instructions before using.

  2. Make sure the voltage in your outlet is the same as the voltage indicated on the
    appliance’s rating label.

  3. To protect against risk of electric shock, do not immerse the cord, plug or cooking unit
    in water or any other liquid.

  4. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles.

  5. This appliance should not be used by children.

  6. Extreme caution must be exercised when any appliance is used near children.

  7. Unplug from wall outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before
    cleaning or storing this appliance.

  8. Never yank the cord to disconnect the cooking unit from the outlet. Instead, grasp the
    plug and pull to disconnect.

  9. Do not operate any appliance if the cord is damaged. Do not use this appliance if the
    unit malfunctions, if it is dropped or has been damaged in any manner.

  10. In order to avoid the risk of an electric shock, never try to repair the Flip Belgian
    Waffle Maker yourself. Take it to an authorized service center for examination and
    repair. An incorrect reassembly could present a risk of electric shock when the Flip
    Belgian Waffle Maker is used.

  11. The use of accessories or attachments not recommended by the manufacturer may
    cause fire, electrical shock or injury.

  12. Do not use outdoors or for commercial purposes.

  13. Do not use this appliance for purposes other than the one for which it was designed.

  14. Do not let the electrical cord hang over the edge of the table or countertop, or touch
    hot surfaces.

  15. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or heated oven.

  16. Use on a heat-resistant, flat level surface only.

  17. Use extreme caution when moving any appliance containing hot food, water, oil
    or other liquids.

  18. To disconnect, remove plug from outlet.

  19. Always unplug after use. The appliance will remain on unless unplugged.

  20.  CAUTION: This appliance generates heat during use. Proper precautions must
    be taken to prevent the risk of burns, fire or other damage to persons or property.

  21. When using this appliance, provide adequate ventilation above and on all sides for
    air circulation. Do not allow this appliance to touch curtains, wall coverings, clothing,
    dish towels or other flammable materials during use.

This unit is intended for

household use only.
This appliance has a polarized alternating current plug (one blade is wider than the other).
To reduce the risk of electric shock, as a safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet
only one way. If the plug does not insert fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still fails to
fit, contact a qualified electrician.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DEFEAT THIS SAFETY FEATURE.

Extension Cord Use

A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled
in or tripping over a longer cord. An extension cord may be used if care is exercised in its
use. If an extension cord is used, the electrical rating of the cord must 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.

Flip Belgian Waffle Maker

How To:

Using Your OS TER ® FLIP BELGIAN WAFFLE MAKER
For best results, follow these simple instructions.
When your waffle maker is heated for the first time, it may
emit slight smoke or odor. This is normal with many heating
appliances. This does not affect the safety of your appliance.
However, it may affect the flavor of the first set of waffles
prepared in your waffle maker, and it is recommended that
you discard these.

Preparing Your Flip Belgian Waffle Maker

  1. Close the waffle maker and plug it into the wall outlet, you
    will notice that the red power light and green ready light will
    turn on. Turn the temperature control knob to the desired
    setting. It will take approximately 5 to 8 minutes to reach
    baking temperature. When the green ready light goes on, the
    waffle maker is ready for use. The green ready light will turn
    off while heating up.

  2. Before baking the first waffles of the day, use a pastry brush
    to lightly coat the top and bottom waffle grids with
    vegetable oil. A light coating of non-stick cooking spray
    also works well.

Baking

  1. When the proper baking temperature is reached, the green
    light will go on. Once heated up, cycle times will be faster.

  2. Pour batter onto bottom grid of waffle maker. Ladle just
    enough batter to fill lower grid so that the peak area of the
    grid is covered. If necessary, use a spatula to spread the
    batter in to the corners of the grid. At this point the green
    light will go off as the baking cycle begins.

  3. 3 Close waffle maker and rotate unit 180º to the right
    (clockwise). Do not open for at least 11⁄2 minutes. Opening
    the lid too soon will cause under-baked waffles to split,
    making them difficult to remove.

  4. When the green light goes on again, rotate waffle maker 180º
    to the left (counterclockwise). Your waffles should be done
    according to the Waffle Temperature Control setting that
    you’ve chosen. If you want them darker, close the lid and
    continue baking until the desired color is achieved.

  5. Remove waffles from the grid using non-metallic utensils.

  6. If additional baking is to be done, close waffle maker to
    retain heat. Always be sure the green light goes on again
    before making more waffles.

  7. If you need to take a short break, close waffle maker to
    maintain heat. When you return to baking, you will notice
    that the first waffles will bake faster because extra heat has
    been allowed to build up.

  8. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is being
    used by or near children.

  9. When baking is complete, simply unplug the power cord
    from wall outlet. Leave waffle maker open to cool. Do not
    clean until unit has cooled.

Waffle Baking Tips

  1. Set the Waffle Temperature Control to your desired setting.
    At first, try a setting in the middle. You may later adjust
    it lower or higher according to your preference. A lower
    setting produces a lighter colored waffle, while waffles
    made at a higher setting are darker and crisper. Different
    waffle batters will also cook up differently. Over time, you
    will find your perfect setting for the batter you use.

  2. When preparing waffle batter, do not over mix or waffles
    will be tough. Stir batter only until large lumps of dry
    ingredients disappear.

  3. The optimal amount of batter to produce a full-shaped
    waffle, without overflowing, will vary with different waffle
    batters. Pouring batter from a measuring cup will help you
    gauge how much batter to use each time. Fill bottom grid
    of waffle maker with enough batter to cover peak areas of
    the grid.

  4. For more evenly shaped waffles, spread thick batters to
    outer edge of grid, using a heat proof rubber spatula or
    other non-metallic utensil before closing lid.

  5. Cake-based waffles, such as the Chocolate Waffles are more
    tender than regular waffles, and may require more care
    when removing from waffle maker. You may want to break
    these waffles into halves or quarters before removing. Use
    a spatula to support waffles when removing from the
    waffle maker.

  6. To retain crispness, move baked waffles to a wire cooling
    rack to prevent steam from accumulating underneath.

  7. When serving several waffles at one time, keep waffles
    hot and crisp by placing on a rack in a preheated 200°F
    oven until ready to serve.

  8. Already cooled waffles can be re-warmed and re-crisped,
    individually, by returning to hot waffle maker. Set Waffle
    Temperature Control to low. Place waffle on grid so grooves
    match up; close lid and heat for 1 to 2 minutes, watching
    carefully to prevent burning.

  9. Baked waffles freeze well. Cool completely on wire rack.
    Store in plastic freezer bag or in covered container,
    separating waffles with wax paper. Reheat frozen waffles
    in toaster oven, oven or toaster until hot and crisp.

care & cleaning

Here are a few easy steps to keep your waffle maker
looking and working like new:

1 Always unplug the waffle maker and allow it to cool before
cleaning. There is no need to disassemble the waffle maker
for cleaning. Never immerse the waffle maker in water or
place in dishwasher.
2 Brush away any loose crumbs from the grooves. Wipe grids
clean with a paper towel, absorbing any oil or butter that
might be down in the grooves of the grid. You can also wipe
grids with a damp cloth. Do not use anything abrasive that
can scratch or damage the non-stick coating.
3 Wipe the outside of the waffle maker with a damp cloth only.
Do not clean the outside with any abrasive scouring pad or
steel wool, as this will damage the finish. A little metal polish
suitable for stainless steel may be used occasionally on the
top housing. Do not immerse in water or any other liquid.
Do not place in the dishwasher.
4 Should any batter become baked onto the grids, pour a little
cooking oil onto the hardened batter. Let sit 5 minutes to
soften batter, then wipe off with a paper towel or soft cloth.
5 Do not use metal utensils to remove your waffles, they can
damage the non-stick surface.
