Be sure that all parts (listed above, Parts and Features) of your new waffle iron have been included before discarding 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 temperature, 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 a bit. This is normal, and common to appliances with a nonstick surface. 4. Lift lid of waffle iron by grasping the handle and pushing back and up in one fluid motion. Lid will stay open at 105° position until you lower it. 5. Pour batter onto the center of the lower waffle grid. Use a heat-proof spatula to spread batter evenly over the grids. Close the lid. The waffle iron will automatically latch shut when you lower the lid. The green light will turn off but the red light will stay illuminated. 6. Baking time is determined by the browning level that you chose in Step 3. It may take up to 4 minutes to bake your waffle on setting #6. 7. When the waffle is ready, the green light will turn on and the audible tone will sound. Remove the waffle by gently loosening the edges with a heat-proof plastic spatula or wooden spatula. Never use metal utensils, as they will damage the nonstick coating. 8. When you are finished baking, turn the control dial counterclockwise to the OFF setting. The red indicator light will turn off. Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet. Allow the waffle iron to cool down completely before handling. CLEANING AND CARE Once you have finished baking, turn the control dial to the OFF position and remove plug from electrical outlet. Leave top lid open so grids begin to cool. Allow waffle iron to cool down completely before handling. Never take your waffle iron apart for cleaning. Simply brush crumbs from grooves, and absorb any excess cooking oil by wiping with a dry cloth or paper towel. You may clean the grids by wiping with a damp cloth to prevent staining and sticking from batter or oil buildup. Be certain grids have cooled completely before cleaning. If batter adheres to plates, simply pour a little cooking oil onto the baked batter and let stand approximately 5 minutes, thus allowing it to soften for easy removal. To clean exterior, wipe with a soft dry cloth. Never use an abrasive cleanser or harsh pad. NEVER IMMERSE CORD, PLUG OR UNIT IN WATER OR OTHER LIQUID. STORAGE Store with cord wrapped securely under base. For compact storage, stand waffle iron on back end with control panel facing up. The waffle iron has been designed with a special latching feature so the lid stays closed during storage. TIPS TO MAKE PERFECT WAFFLES • Setting #1 will produce the lightest color waffles. Setting #6 will produce the darkest color waffles. Experiment to determine which setting produces the best waffle color for you. • For evenly filled waffles, pour the batter onto the center of the lower grid and spread out evenly to the edges. The entire lower grid should be filled. • We recommend using 3.4 cup of batter to fill lower grid. • Waffles are best when made to order, but baked waffles may be kept warm in a 200°F oven. Place them in a baking pan or wrap in foil while in the oven. (Waffles wrapped in foil may lose their crispiness.) • Baked waffles may be frozen. Allow to cool completely, then place in plastic food storage bag. Use waxed paper to keep waffles separated. Reheat in a toaster or toaster oven when ready to eat. • For added flavor dress your waffles with fruit syrups, warm fruit compote, fresh berries, chopped fruit or yogurt. • For sweeter waffles, add powdered sugar, whipped cream, ice cream or chocolate sauce.
