Important Safeguards

SAFETY INFORMATION

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS. THIS APPLIANCE IS FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.

WARNING: When using electrical appliances, especially when children are present, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or injury to persons, including the following:

1. Do not touch hot surfaces. Metal parts can become hot. Use handles as directed.
2. To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse cord, plug, or appliance in water or other liquid.
3. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
4. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before cleaning.
5. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or 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.
6. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may cause injuries.
7. Do not use outdoors.
8. Do not let the cord hang over the edge of a table or counter or touch hot surfaces.
9. Do not place on or near a hot gas stove or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
10. Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot oil or other hot liquids.
11. To disconnect, remove the plug from the wall outlet.
12. Do not use the appliance for other than its intended use.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS

A short power supply cord is provided to reduce hazards resulting from entanglement or tripping over a longer cord. Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If a longer detachable power-supply 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.
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.

LINE CORD SAFETY TIPS

1. Never pull or yank on the cord or the appliance.
2. To insert the plug, grasp it firmly and guide it into the outlet.
3. To disconnect the appliance, grasp the plug and remove it from the outlet.
4. Before each use, inspect the line cord for cuts and/or abrasion marks. If any are found, this indicates that the appliance should be serviced and the line cord replaced. Please return it to an authorized service representative.
5. Never wrap the cord tightly around the appliance, as this could place undue stress on the cord where it enters the appliance and cause it to fray and break.

DO NOT OPERATE APPLIANCE IF THE LINE CORD SHOWS ANY DAMAGE OR IF APPLIANCE WORKS INTERMITTENTLY OR STOPS WORKING ENTIRELY.

CAUTION: To ensure continued protection against risk of electric shock, connect to properly grounded outlets only.

IMPORTANT: During the first few minutes of initial use, you may notice smoke and/or a slight odor. This is normal and should quickly disappear. It will not recur after the appliance has been used a few more times.

This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

Operating Instructions

BEFORE FIRST USE

After unpacking the waffle maker, open the cover and wipe the top and bottom cooking plates with a damp cloth and then towel dry.

TO USE

1. Insert the plug firmly into a wall outlet. The red POWER light will turn on.
2. Lightly glaze both cooking plates with a small amount of vegetable oil or a non-stick spray.
3. Close the top to allow the waffle maker to heat up.
4. After 3-5 minutes, the green READY light will turn on, indicating that the waffle maker has warmed to the appropriate temperature for cooking.
5. Slowly pour waffle mix into the bottom cooking plate. DO NOT overfill with waffle mix or batter.
6. Close the lid. Normal cooking time will be 3-6 minutes for each waffle. The READY light will cycle on and off as the thermostat keeps the waffle maker at the proper cooking temperature.
7. Remove the waffles from the cooking plates with a plastic (non-metallic) utensil. BE CAREFUL with the waffles; they are HOT. Allow to cool for a few minutes before enjoying.
8. Unplug the power supply cord after cooking and allow the waffle maker to cool before moving or storing.

CAUTION: Cooking surface is hot: handle with care.

ABOUT YOUR PRODUCT WARRANTY:

Most warranty repairs are handled routinely, but sometimes requests for warranty service may not be appropriate.
