INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

1. Before using your Waring ^® Heavy-Duty Cast-Iron Belgian Waffle Maker for the first time, remove any dust from shipping by wiping the plates with a damp cloth. Remove all protective paper and wrapping.
2. Screw on waffle plate handle (no tools needed).

3. Plug cord into wall outlet.

4. Turn the power rocker switch to the ON position (located on the right side of the unit). The LED screen will illuminate.

5. Once on, the waffle maker will start preheating. Once the unit is heated to the programmed temperature, the ready light will turn on.

NOTE: This unit is preset to:

$$ \text { Temp } = 3 7 5 ^ {\circ} \mathrm{F} $$

Time = 2:15 minutes

Before first use, it is necessary to apply a non-aerosol spray that is canola or vegetable oil-based.

After the initial application, the non-stick coating will remain effective for an extensive period of time, depending on the frequency of use.

Prior to pouring batter, spray oil 6-8 inches from the plates.

NOTE: Be careful not to overspray as the plates might stick.

1. Pour batter evenly into the center of the waffle grid. Use a heatproof spatula to spread the batter evenly over the grid. Close the lid and rotate the unit 180°. Once the lid is rotated, the timer will automatically start counting down.
2. When the set time is reached, the unit will beep. Rotate the waffle maker 180^ , open the lid, and remove waffle by gently loosening the edges with a waffle fork or a heatproof plastic spatula.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

Clean daily and diligently; doing so will ensure that your waffle maker works properly and continues to work well over time.

How to Clean Waffle Plates

1. Turn the power switch to OFF and remove plug from electrical outlet. Leave the waffle iron open to allow the plates to cool before cleaning.
2. While plates are warm (not hot), - brush the plates and grooves with a bristle brush to remove any buildup or crumbs. Wipe with a dry lint-free cloth or towel.
3. After plates have completely cooled down, clean and wipe cast-iron plates with a soft dry cloth. Be sure to absorb any excess oil.

Drip tray is removable for cleaning. Rinse and sanitize.

Do not submerge unit in water.

Never take your waffle maker apart for cleaning.

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 LIQUIDS.

The latch by the handle can be cleaned with a pipe cleaner or narrow bristle brush. To clean, lift up the unit from the bottom to create space around the latch and use brush to clean area.

The interconnect cord connecting the two waffle plates can develop buildup over time. It can be cleaned with a dry lint-free cloth, pipe cleaner, or narrow bristle brush.

CAST-IRON SEASONING

The cast-iron waffle plates are preseasoned and ready to bake, but it is necessary to apply an initial coating using non-aerosol sprays that are canola or vegetable oil-based to ensure optimal performance. After the initial coating your plates will remain seasoned for an extended period of time.

It is important to maintain the cleanliness of the plates to preserve the seasoning for as long as possible.

With extended use, plates may need to be reseasoned to maintain a nonstick surface. If so, always clean plates prior to seasoning.

Oil is a key ingredient to making your cast-iron plates nonstick. Recipes with minimal oil might require more frequent seasoning.

The Importance of Seasoning Your Waffle Maker

It is recommended to season your Waring waffle maker in order to maintain the nonstick surface. Seasoning is the process of coating the surface of cast-iron with a protective layer of oil that is then baked into the iron in order to produce a hard nonstick coating.

If using a cooking spray, it is recommended to use a canola or vegetable-oil based spray.

Advantages to Seasoning:

• Assists in creating a nonstick surface
- Prevents rusting
- Prolongs the life of your cast-iron plates

CAST-IRON SEASONING PROCESS

If you experience severe sticking or buildup after extended use, first clean waffle plates (see CLEANING & MAINTENENCE) and then season the plates prior to your next bake.

1. Preheat unit to 415^ F.
2. With a bristle brush, brush the cast-iron plates and guard rail with a very thin coat of vegetable or canola oil.
   NOTE: Avoid pooling of oil in the grooves of the waffle plate as this can cause sticking.
3. Use a dry lint-free cloth or paper towel to remove excess oil and close the lid.
4. Let the unit sit for about 45 minutes, then open the lid. NOTE: The unit will be smoking; this is normal.
5. Test 1 waffle. If sticking occurs, apply another coat of oil and burn off at least 1 hour.
6. You are now ready for operation!

Maintain daily cleaning and maintenance for optimal performance and life of the unit. If sticking begins to occur, you might need to clean and season your waffle plates.

TIPS AND TROUBLESHOOTING

1. To maintain nonstick surface of your waffle maker, proper maintenance and seasoning are recommended. Always clean plates before seasoning.

2. If waffles are sticking:

3. Make sure waffle plates are clean (see CLEANING & MAINTENANCE).

4. Season the waffle plates (see CAST-IRON SEASONING PROCESS).

5. Make sure to not apply too much oil – an excess of oil can cause sticking and buildup.

6. Check your waffle recipe. Oil is a key ingredient to making your cast-iron waffle plates nonstick. Recipes with minimal oil might cause more sticking.
7. Any add-ins or mix-ins can cause sticking – especially those with sugar.
8. If after cleaning and seasoning sticking still continues, be sure to not apply too much oil prior to baking. An excess of oil can cause sticking and buildup.
9. Plates should be seasoned more frequently if heavily used.
