BEFORE THE FIRST USE

Remove all packaging and any promotional labels or stickers from your waffle iron. Be sure that all parts (listed above, Parts and Features) of your new waffle iron have been included before dis- carding any packaging materials. You may want to keep the box and packing materials for use at a later date.

Before using your Cuisinart® 2-Slice Belgian Waffle Iron for the first time, wipe housing and waffle plates with a damp cloth to remove any dust from the warehouse or shipping.

Note: The Cuisinart® 2-Slice Belgian Waffle Iron has been treated with a special nonstick coating. Before the first use, we suggest you season the grids with cooking spray or flavorless vegetable oil. If using oil, apply oil with a paper towel or pastry brush. You may find it helpful to repeat this process before each use of the waffle iron.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1.Place the closed waffle iron on a clean, flat surface where you intend to bake.

2.Plug the power cord in a standard electrical outlet.

3.Turn the control dial clockwise from the OFF position to the desired browning setting –

setting #1 for the lightest color waffles and set- ting #6 for the darkest color waffles.

The red indicator light will turn on to signal power. Allow the waffle iron to preheat. When the waffle iron has reached desired tempera- ture, the green indicator light will turn on and the audible tone will sound. You are now ready to begin baking.

Note: The first time you use your waffle iron it may have a slight odor and may smoke
