Baking waffles
• fill the measuring cup (13) to the 5oz. mark with batter. Pour and spread the batter
evenly on the lower waffle plate (7) (ill. f ).
• Note: Do not pour too much batter, as excess batter might drip out of the waffle
plates (7, 8) during baking process.
• Close the upper cover (9) (ill. g ).
• Turn the waffle plates (7, 8) clockwise 180 degrees with the handle (10) until they
lock into place (ill. h ). This ensures even spreading of the batter on both waffle
plates.
• Let the appliance run until the green light comes oN or until waffles have the
desired browning or until the appliance stops steaming. This process takes 2 to 3
minutes. The result can vary from golden brown to crispy brown baked waffles
(7, 8).
• Turn the waffle maker to its original position. Lift up the upper cover (9) by the
handle (10). Remove the baked waffles with a heat-proof wooden or plastic spatula.
We recommend to use oven mittens to protect your hands when opening the hot
waffle maker. Escaping steam and the hot waffle plates
(7, 8) might cause burns.
• Note: If waffles are not to be served immediately, place them on a paper tissue
or cooling rack to absorb condensation. When served later, just reheat them
( Tips for making waffles).
• After removing the waffles, keep the waffle plates (7, 8) closed so that the heat
remains inside the appliance for the next set of waffles. Wait until the ready
indicators
(2, 12) light up again. Then, fill with more waffle batter.
