IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS ARDS
Read all instructions before using the waffle maker. The following basic precautions should always be followed:
-
Do not touch hot surfaces. Use the temperature control knob and handle. Never touch the waffle maker or baking plates (including the rim of the baking plates) while baking. Use caution to avoid burns. Open the waffle maker and remove waffles carefully.
-
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children younger than 8) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have supervision. -
Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used near children. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be done by children unless they are older than 8 and supervised.
-
Check if the voltage indicated on the appliance corresponds to the local main voltage before you plug it into a wall outlet.
-
Always make sure that the plug is inserted properly into a wall outlet.
-
Do not use the appliance with a damaged cord, plug, or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Return the appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair, or adjustment.
-
Do not let the cord hang over the edge of the table or counter and make sure that it does not touch hot surfaces.
-
To protect against electric shock, do not immerse the cord, plugs, or appliance in water or any other liquid. Do not plug in the appliance or operate the controls with wet hands.
-
Never connect this appliance to an external timer switch or separate remote-control system in order to avoid a hazardous situation.
-
To turn off the waffle maker, turn the temperature control knob to the lowest setting and remove the plug from the outlet.
-
Do not place the appliance on or near combustible materials, such as a tablecloth or curtain. The accessible surfaces may become hot during use. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated oven.
-
Do not place the appliance against a wall or against other appliances. Leave ample free space around and above the appliance. Do not place anything on top of the appliance.
-
Do not use the appliance for any other purpose than described in this manual. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may cause injuries.

Do not let the appliance operate unattended. Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot food, water, oil, or other hot liquids.
-
The waffle maker must be closed when baking.
-
After baking, avoid contact with the baking plates until they are cooled.

-
For household use only.
CORD AND PLUG SAFETY
- A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
- Extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use.
- If an extension cord is used:
a. The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least equal to the electrical rating of the appliance; and
b. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be tripped over or pulled on by children.
ELECTRICAL POLARIZED PLUG
This unit has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, the plug is intended to be used by inserting it into the electrical outlet in only one way. If the plug does not fit securely into the outlet, reverse the plug and re-insert. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician for assistance. Do not modify the plugin anyway.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
KNOW YOUR WAFFLE MAKER
**Never** touch the baking plates, including the rim
of baking plates. Use caution to avoid burns.
BEFORE FIRST USE
- Remove all packaging material and all stickers and labels.
- Wipe the inside and outside of the unit with a moist cloth.
- Ensure that the baking plates are clean.
NOTE: During the first few use, there may be a “hot plastic” smell. This is perfectly normal in new waffle makers as the material is heated for the first time. Heating the waffle maker once without any food inside for about 10 minutes is recommended. Ensure the room is properly ventilated during the first use.
USING YOUR WAFFLE MAKER
-
Place the waffle maker on a stable, level, and heat-resistant surface.
-
Close the waffle maker and plug the power cord into a wall outlet. The red power light turns on, indicating that the unit is on and preheating.
NOTE: The red power light stays on until you unplug the waffle maker. -
Turn the temperature control knob to the desired setting. The higher the setting, the darker the waffles will be.
-
After preheating, the green ready light turns on, indicating that the unit is ready to cook the waffles.
-
Coat both the top and bottom baking plates with either nonstick cooking spray or a thin layer of cooking oil brushed on.
-
Pour the waffle batter onto the bottom baking plate, evenly coating the entire surface. The green ready light turns off.
-
Close the waffle maker and use the handle to rotate the baking plates 180° clockwise until it is locked in for cooking.
NOTE: The waffle maker is locked when the temperature control knob is facing down. It opens when the temperature control knob is facing up. -
When the green ready light is turned on, use the handle to rotate the baking plates 180° counterclockwise.
-
Open the waffle maker and check if the waffle is ready. If so, remove the waffle with a non-metal utensil.
NOTE: If the waffles are not cooked enough, close the waffle maker, rotate to lock, and wait 30 seconds to recheck if they are ready. -
When finished cooking waffles, turn the temperature control knob to the lowest setting and remove the plug from the outlet.
NOTE:
• Repeat steps 3-9 to cook additional waffles.
• Always clean the waffle maker after every use. Nonstick cooking spray and oil can build up and affect the nonstick coating.
CAUTION:
Do not touch hot surfaces! Use the handle. Do not touch the waffle maker, baking plates, or rim of baking plates.
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
NEVER immerse cord, plug, or unit in water or any other liquid.
NEVER place the waffle maker in a dishwasher.
Always clean the waffle maker after every use.
Ensure that water does not enter the unit housing.
Do not use metal utensils, scouring pads, or abrasive cleaners on the
waffle maker or the baking plates, as this will damage the finish and nonstick
coating.
The drip tray is dishwasher safe.
-
Turn the temperature control knob to the lowest setting and remove the plug from the outlet.
CAUTION: Ensure the waffle maker and baking plates have cooled down completely before cleaning. -
Wipe the inside and outside of the waffle maker with a damp cloth.
-
To remove batter that is stuck to the baking plates, pour a small amount of cooking oil onto the batter. Wait 5 minutes to allow it to soften and then clean with a damp cloth.
-
Ensure the waffle maker is completely dry before next use.
STORAGE
- Unplug the appliance and let it cool down.
- Make sure all parts are clean and dry.
- Store the appliance in a clean and dry place.
