3. To protect against electric shock, do not place or immerse cord, plugs, or appliance in water or other
liquid.
4. This appliance is not to be used by children or by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities.
5. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used near children. Children should not play with
the appliance.
6. Unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking o parts and before cleaning. Allow to
cool before putting on or taking o parts, and before cleaning. To disconnect, turn any control to OFF,
then unplug power cord from outlet. Do not disconnect by pulling on cord.
7. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions, or has

POWER CORD INSTRUCTIONS:
A short power-supply cord or detachable power-supply cord is provided to reduce risks resulting
from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer detachable power-supply cords or
extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.
If a long detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used:
• The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the
electrical rating of the appliance;
• The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can
be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally; and
• If the appliance is of the grounded type, the cord set or extension cord should be a grounding-type
3-wire cord.
Do not pull, twist or otherwise abuse the power cord.
NOTICES
1. Some countertop and table surfaces are not designed to withstand the prolonged heat generated by
certain appliances. Do not set the heated unit on a finished wood table. We recommend placing a hot
pad or trivet under your wae maker to prevent possible damage to the surface.
2. During initial use of this appliance, some slight smoke and/or odor may be detected. This is normal
with many heating appliances and will not recur after a few uses.
POLARIZED PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug, (one blade is wider than the
other). As a safety feature to reduce the risk of electrical shock, this
plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature or modify the plug
in any way. If the plug fits loosely into the AC outlet or if the AC outlet feels warm do not use
that outlet.

PREPARING YOUR INTELLICRISP™ WAFFLE MAKER
• Remove all packaging before using your wae maker.
• Wipe Cooking Plate with a damp paper towel or soft cloth to remove food residue. DO NOT use steel
wool or other metal pads as this may scratch the surface. Dry thoroughly and close lid.
• The exterior of the wae maker can be wiped clean with a damp cloth.
• Place wae maker on a flat surface and do not put anything on top of it.
• Never immerse the wae maker, power cord or plug in water or any other liquid.
WAFFLE COOKING TIMES
Wae Shade Preheat Cooking Time
Light Yes 2 mins 30 sec.
Light-Medium Yes 3 mins 30 sec.
Medium Yes 4 mins 45 sec.
Medium-Dark Yes 5 mins 30 sec.
Dark Yes 6 mins 45 sec.
NOTE: Note these times are from when the unit determines batter has been added.
HOW TO USE YOUR INTELLICRISP™ WAFFLE MAKER
• Always ensure the Shade Selector Dial is turned OFF before plugging in the wae maker.
• Use the Shade Selector Dial to select the desired shade of wae from “LIGHT” to “DARK”. Once
selected, the screen will show PREHEATING and the preheating process will begin.
• We suggest using one of the middle shades when cooking your first wae, to determine
preference. The wae maker will adjust time based on the selected shade.
• Once the PREHEATING process is completed, the LCD screen will display READY TO COOK, indicating
that you can add the batter.
• Open the lid, pour approximately ½ cup of batter evenly on the center of each wae square and
close the lid. The batter should just cover the peaks of the Cooking Plates. For best results, wait
until READY TO COOK is shown on screen before adding batter. If batter is added prior to READY
TO COOK being displayed on the screen, the wae maker may not accurately sense doneness or
calculate proper cooking time.
• Once the lid is closed, the screen will display COOKING and the countdown will begin.
• You can lift the lid during the cooking process to check on the wae; however, it may aect the
final cooking result.
• At the end of the cooking cycle, COOKING COMPLETE will be displayed on the screen, and it will
beep.

• Open the lid and carefully remove your waes using non-metallic utensils.
NOTE: If you would like to make additional batches of waes, the wae maker may need to preheat
again after cooking is complete for the previous batch. Close the lid and wait until READY TO COOK is
displayed on the screen before adding batter.
• Unplug and allow to cool before cleaning.
• CAUTION: DO NOT USE METAL UTENSILS AS THEY CAN SCRATCH THE NON-STICK COATING.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
CAUTION: DO NOT IMMERSE ANY PART OF THE WAFFLE MAKER IN WATER OR ANY OTHER LIQUID.
• Always unplug your wae maker from the electrical outlet, and allow it to cool before cleaning.
• Always clean the wae maker after each use.
• Wipe Cooking Plate and overflow with a damp paper towel or soft cloth to remove food residue. DO
NOT use steel wool or other metal pads as this may scratch the surface.
• The exterior of the wae maker can be wiped clean with a damp cloth.
• To store the wae maker, close lid gently and push Storage Lock on the base of the wae maker
until it clicks into the lid.
• No other servicing should be performed.
NOTE: The wae maker is easier to clean when slightly warm.
This appliance has no user serviceable parts. Any servicing beyond that described in the Cleaning
Section should be performed by an Authorized Service Representative only. See Warranty Section.
TIPS FOR BETTER BAKING RESULTS
• When using your wae maker for the first time, we suggest using one of the middle shades to
determine cooking preference.
• Always wait until PREHEATING process is complete before adding batter.
• Pour the batter evenly in the center of each wae square.
• To avoid over flow, the amount of batter should not go over the separation line between the wae
squares.
• Increase or decrease shade selection to your brownness preference.
