POLARIZED PLUG: This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider

than the other). As a safety feature to reduce the risk of electrical shock, this

plug is intended to fit in 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 defeat this safety feature.

ELECTRIC POWER: If the electric circuit is overloaded with other appliances,

your appliance may not operate properly. It should be operated on a

separate electrical circuit from other appliances.

THIS PRODUCT IS FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY

CONDITIONING GRIDS

The grid surface being used requires conditioning before each heating that

follows cleaning. To condition, lightly coat the grid surface with vegetable

shortening. Plug into any 120 volt ~ 60 Hz outlet and the indicator light will

come on telling you the unit is heating. When indicator light goes off, unit

is preheated. The grids are ready to use.

To protect the premium quality non-stick surfaces, use only plastic, nylon or

wooden utensils. Carefully follow suggested cleaning procedures. After

time, if waffles show signs of sticking, carefully recondition your unit.

USING YOUR APPLIANCE

1. Before using, wipe cooking surface with a damp cloth and dry. Lightly

coat grids with vegetable shortening and close lid.

2. Plug into any 120 V ~ 60 Hz outlet. The indicator light will come on

telling you the unit is heating. Initially, some smoking may occur. This is

normal for newly manufactured appliances and will not occur after the

first few uses.

3. When indicator light goes off, immediately raise lid and pour approxi-

mately

⁄

cup batter on lower grid. Close the lid. Indicator light will come

on during baking process. The amount of batter required may vary with

recipe or brand of mix. Any waffle recipe or mix may be used.

4. When light goes off the second time, gently lift lid to check for brownness.

If lid shows resistance to lifting, the waffle may not be quite done. Close top

and watch for steaming to stop before checking again.

5. Remove waffle when browned. If a second waffle is desired, pour batter

immediately and close lid. If you prefer a darker and crisper waffle, close

lid and let cook 1-2 minutes longer.

6. When finished baking, unplug and cool before cleaning.
