3. Push the toggle switch to on to begin the preheating process (see:
pic. A). The LED background displays blue and shows a default
cooking time of 2:30.
4. When the blue ready light is on and 3 beeps sound, preheating
is finished (see: pic. B). At that moment, one black point will be flas-
hing in the LED display and a blue light illuminates under the colour
button.
5. Before making the first waffle, use a pastry brush to lightly coat
the top and bottom waffle grids with vegetable oil or melted shorte-
ning. Cooking spray will also work well for this purpose.
6. Ladle enough batter to fill the lower waffle plate so that the peak
areas of the plate are just barely covered. If necessary, use a spatu-
la to spread the batter into the corners of grid (see: pic. C).
7. Press the colour button to adjust the cooking time in 30 second
increments from 2:30 (lightest) to 4:00 (darkest) (see: pic. D). If you
want a crispier waffle for any cooking time setting, press the crisp
button and a blue light illuminates under the crisp button.
8. Close the baker lid. Rotate the housing 180° clockwise (see: pic.
E). Press the start button (see: pic. F); the blue ready light will be
off and the baking timer begins its countdown. While baking, the
black point in LED display will stop flashing. If you want to change
the time setting, you can press reset button and then colour button
to reset the time. Then press start button to begin the cooking time
countdown again.
9. When the selected cooking time is up, you will hear 4 beeps, the
blue ready light will illuminate, the black point will start flashing,
and the cooking time setting will remain as selected.
10. To remove the waffle, rotate the unit 180° (see: pic. G) counter-
clockwise and lift the handle straight up (see: pic. H). Once the
waffles are cooked, carefully remove them; use a wooden or pla-
stic spatula to remove waffle from the bottom plate. Make sure not
to touch the cooking surface with sharp, pointed or metal objects;
this could damage the non-stick surface. Use caution as the plate is
extremely hot.
Warning! Pouring batter onto the preheated heating surface
batter or grease might spurt out. Keep enough distance to the appli-
ance during operation and do not touch the hot exterior or heating
surface of the wafflemaker. For opening the lid use the handle only.
Tips for making perfecT Waffles
T o measure flour, stir the flour first to aerate it, since it settles when
it sits. Then spoon it into a measuring cup, levelling off the top with
the back of a knife – do not pack down into measuring cup. These
quick steps will help you to avoid heavy waffles.
