HOW to USE

1.Plug unit into a 120V AC outlet. The red power light will come on and the LCD will display ‘---‘.

2.Press the On/Off button to turn the unit on. Press the Shade Button and select the desired setting. You can choose between 6 different shade levels.

Light colored waffles – Shade 1 or 2 Medium coloured waffles – Shade 3 or 4 Dark coloured waffles – Shade 5 or 6

NOTE: If you press the Shade Button to select the desired setting and then press the Rapid Button, the unit will heat faster and will make waffles slightly darker than the Shade chosen.

3.Close the lid. As the unit is preheating, the Shade setting will be shown in the LCD display and small blocks will scroll across the bottom of the screen. (If you pressed the Rapid Button, all 6 blocks on the bottom of the screen will flash instead).

4.Once the unit is preheated the Waffle Maker will beep and the Green Ready Light will illuminate. The blocks will stop scrolling across the LCD display or stop flashing if you pressed the Rapid Button.

5.Open the lid and pour batter (approximately 3/4 -1 cup) to fill the lower cooking grid. If necessary, use a spatula to spread the batter into the corners of the grid.

6.Close the lid and rotate the unit 180° to the right (clockwise). The LCD display will start to countdown. Do not open for at least 1-1/2 minutes. Opening too soon will cause under-baked waffles to split, making them difficult to remove.

7.When the LCD display has finished the countdown, the waffle maker will beep to let you know the waffle is now ready. Rotate the waffle maker 180° to the left (counterclockwise). The waffles are done according to the Shade setting chosen. For a darker waffle, close the lid and continue baking until the desired color is achieved.

8.At any time during the cooking cycle you can press the Reset Button to select a different Shade level.

9.Once the waffles are cooked, carefully remove them from the Waffle Maker with a wooden or plastic spatula. Never touch the cooking surface with sharp, pointy or metal objects. This could damage the non-stick surface.

10.To cook more waffles, there is no need to preheat the Waffle Maker. Simply follow steps 5 through 9 above.

11.Once you are finished cooking, press the On/Off Button to turn the unit off, disconnect the plug from the wall outlet and leave unit open to cool.
