Do not use an extension cord.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

This waffle maker is designed for use with 120 V, 60 Hz only. It has a 3-prong grounded plug. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this plug will fit in an outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit in the outlet, contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way.

A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or service technician install an outlet near the appliance.

Service Preparation

WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard

Disconnect power before servicing.

Replace all parts and panels before operating.

Failure to do so can result in death or electrical shock.

Cushion the service area to keep from scratching the waffle baker or damaging the controls and display surfaces. A clean folded towel will usually work well for this purpose.

TESTING THE WAFFLE BAKER

In some situations you will have to test the performance of the waffle baker to identify and diagnose the problem.

PERFORMANCE

You can observe the performance of a waffle baker by establishing benchmarks on the performance seen on prior waffle bakers. Here is a list of performance parameters to observe.

EXAMPLE: Bake time: 3 minutes 30 seconds (3:30)

Bake temperature: 350º F

Time to Bake Two Waffles – Measure the time needed to bake two waffles (one cup batter each) on the two waffle plates. Longer baking times will produce darker, crispier waffles.

For your first waffles, a good starting time is 3 minutes, 30 seconds. The baking time can be set in 15-second increments from a minimum of 2 minutes, 30 seconds to maximum of 5 minutes, 30 seconds.

Waffle Plate Temperature – Pre-heat waffle baker, then measure the temperature on each waffle plate.
