ADDITIONAL IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
CAUTION HOT SURFACES: This appliance generates heat and escaping
steam during use. Proper precautions must be taken to prevent the
risk of burns, fires or other damage to persons or property.
CAUTION: This appliance is hot during operation and retains heat for
some time after turning off. Always use oven mitts when handling
hot materials and allow metal parts to cool before cleaning. Do not
place anything on top of the appliance while it is operating or while
it is hot.
• All users of this appliance must read and understand this Use and
Care Guide before operating or cleaning this appliance.
• The cord to this appliance should be plugged into a 120V AC
electrical outlet only.
• If this appliance begins to malfunction during use, immediately
unplug the cord. Do not use or attempt to repair the malfunctioning
appliance.
• Do not leave this appliance unattended during use.
POLARIZED PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug, (one blade is wider than the other).
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a
polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician.
Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from
becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Extension cords are
available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If an extension
cord is used, (1) the marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension
cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance,
and (2) the 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. If the appliance is of the grounded type, the
extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.
ELECTRIC POWER
If the electrical circuit is overloaded with other appliances, your appliance
may not operate properly. It should be operated on a separate electrical
circuit from other appliances.
CAUTION: To prevent Plasticizer from migrating from the finish of the
countertop or tabletop or other furniture, place the NON-PLASTIC
coasters or placemats between the appliance and the finish of the
countertop or tabletop.

BEFORE FIRST USE
IMPORTANT: Before using for the first time, operate the appliance
without any batter in order to burn off residues on the
Cooking Plates. To avoid burns, care should be taken when
handling the Waffle Baker. The sides of the Cooking Plates are
exposed and may be hot.
1. Carefully unpack Waffle Baker and remove all packaging
material.
2. Wipe all surfaces with a slightly damp, soft cloth. Never
immerse in water.
3. To burn off residues on the Cooking Plates, it will be necessary
to operate the unit for a few minutes before initial use. Do not
add batter or oil during this time.
4. Set the appliance on a dry, clean and flat countertop surface,
where it can be easily plugged into a 120V AC electrical outlet.
5. With the lid closed, plug the unit into a 120V AC electrical
outlet. The RED Power Light and GREEN Ready Light will
illuminate.
NOTE: You may notice smoke and a slight odor as residues start to
burn off.
4
6. Operate the unit for approximately 5 - 10 minutes, or until the
smoke and odor dissipates; then unplug the unit and allow it to
cool completely.
NOTE: Handle with care; THE COOKING PLATES WILL BE HOT!
NOTE: Some odor may still be detected during initial use; this is
normal and should disappear after the first few uses.
CONDITIONING GRIDS
The Grid Surfaces being used should be conditioned before each
heating that follows a cleaning. To condition, lightly coat the Grid
Surfaces with solid vegetable shortening. Do not use spray-on oil
products. To protect the premium quality non-stick surfaces, use
only plastic, nylon or wooden utensils. Carefully follow suggested
cleaning procedures. After a time, if waffles show signs of sticking,
carefully recondition your unit.
USING YOUR PERSONAL WAFFLE BAKER
1. Always allow Waffle Baker to heat until the Green Ready Light
turns off. Initially, some smoking may occur. This is normal for
newly manufactured appliances and will not occur after the first
few uses. When preheated, the Green Ready Light will turn off.
1
2. Raise Lid and pour approximately ⁄3 cup of batter onto the cen-
ter of each waffle section of the Grid Surface. Close the Lid.
The Green Ready Light will Cycle on and off during cooking
period.
3. After approximately 3 minutes, gently lift the Lid to check for
brownness. If the Lid shows resistance to lifting, the waffle may
not be quite done. Close the Lid and watch for steaming to stop
before checking again.
4. Remove the waffle when browned. If a second batch is desired,
pour batter immediately and close Lid.
5. When finished baking unplug and allow to cool before
cleaning.
USER MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
Any servicing requiring disassembly must be performed by
a qualified appliance repair technician.

CARE AND CLEANING
CAUTION: Unplug from electrical outlet and allow to cool
thoroughly before cleaning. Never immerse appliance in
water or other liquids.
1. Brush grids with clean, soft pastry brush or cloth.
2. Do not use steel wool or coarse scouring pads. Remove stub-
born stains with a plastic mesh puff or pad. For best results, use
only products with directions stating that it is safe for cleaning
non-stick surfaces.
3. The exterior finish should be cleaned with a non-abrasive
cleaner and a soft, damp cloth, dry thoroughly.
4. When finished cleaning, close grids, latch and wrap cord
around the Cord Wrap. Stand on end for storage.
