7.Bake for approximately 3 minutes. For lighter waffles, bake for less time. For darker waffles, bake for more time. Medium-brown waffles, can be achieved by baking in between 3½ and 5 minutes. These are approximate times that may vary depending on the recipe ingredients used.

Note: During operation, the green indicator light inside the Griddle dial will continue to turn on and off as the thermostat regulates the temperature. This is normal. The red indicator light inside the Selector dial will stay illuminated during operation.

8.Remove the waffles by gently loosening the edges with a heat-proof spatula or tongs. Never use metal utensils, as they will damage the nonstick coating.

9.When you are finished baking, turn the Selector dial to the OFF position and unplug the power cord from the wall outlet. Allow the Griddler® or Griddler Gourmet® to cool down for at least 30 minutes before handling.

CLEANING AND CARE

Once you have finished baking, turn the Selector dial to the OFF position and unplug the power cord from the wall outlet. Leave the top cover of your Griddler® or Griddler Gourmet® open so the waffle plates begin to cool. Allow the unit to cool down for at least 30 minutes before handling.

Press the plate release buttons to remove waffle plates from the housing. The waffle plates can be washed in the dishwasher. Do not use metallic objects such as knives or forks for cleaning. Do not use

a scouring pad for cleaning – the nonstick coating can be damaged.

The Griddler® or Griddler Gourmet® exterior surfaces can be wiped clean with a soft, dry cloth. For tough stains, dampen cloth. Never use an abrasive cleaner or harsh pad.

STORAGE

The waffle plates can be stored in the Griddler® or Griddler Gourmet® or in a drawer or cabinet when not in use.

WARRANTY

Limited One-Year Warranty

This warranty is available to consumers only. You are a consumer if you own Cuisinart® Griddler® Waffle Plates that were purchased at retail for personal, family or household use. Except as otherwise required under applicable law, this warranty is not available to retailers or other commercial purchasers or owners. We warrant that your Cuisinart® Griddler® Waffle Plates will be free of defects in materials and workmanship under normal home use for 1 year from the date of original purchase.

We recommend that you visit our website, www.cuisinart.com for a fast, efficient way to complete your product registration. However, product registration does not eliminate the need for the consumer to maintain the original proof of purchase in order to obtain the warranty benefits. In the event that you do not have proof of purchase date, the purchase date for purposes of this warranty will be the date of manufacture.

CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS ONLY

California law provides that for In-Warranty Service, California residents have the option of returning a nonconforming product (A) to the store where it was purchased or (B) to another retail store that sells Cuisinart products of the same type. The retail store shall then, according to its preference, either repair the product, refer the consumer to an independent repair facility, replace the product, or refund the purchase price less the amount directly attributable to the consumer’s prior usage of the product. If neither of the above two options results in the appropriate relief to the consumer, the consumer may then take the product to an independent repair facility, if service or repair can be economically accomplished. Cuisinart and not the consumer will be responsible for the reasonable cost of such service, repair, replacement, or refund of nonconforming products under warranty. California residents may also, according to their preference, return nonconforming products directly to Cuisinart for repair or, if necessary, replacement by calling our Consumer Service Center toll- free at 1-800-726-0190. Cuisinart will be responsible for the cost of the repair, replacement, and shipping and handling of such nonconforming products under warranty.

Your Cuisinart® Griddler® Waffle Plates have been manufactured to the strictest specifications and have been designed for use only with Griddler® and Griddler Gourmet® models. This warranty expressly excludes any defects or damages caused by accessories, replacement parts or repair service other than those authorized by Cuisinart. This warranty does

not cover any damage caused by accident, misuse, shipment or other than ordinary household use. This warranty excludes all incidental or consequential damages. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of these damages, so these exclusions may not apply to you. You may also have other rights, which vary from state to state.

Important: If the nonconforming product is to be serviced by someone other than Cuisinart’s Authorized Service Center, please remind the servicer to call our Consumer Service Center at 1-800-726-0190 to ensure that the problem is properly diagnosed, the product is serviced with the correct parts, and to ensure that the product is still under warranty.
