burner, or in a heated oven.
11. Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance
containing hot oil or other hot liquids.
12. To disconnect, turn any control to “off”, then remove plug
from wall outlet.
13. This product is designed for household use only. Do not
use appliance for other than intended purpose.
14. This appliance generates heat and may create steam dur-
ing use. Take precautions to prevent burns, fires or other
personal injury or property damage.
15. Do not place anything on top of or underneath this product
while it is operating.
16. Do not leave waffle maker unattended during use.
17. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not open

Electrical Requirements
Avoid electrical shock. This appliance is equipped with a
3-prong grounding plug for your protection against shock
hazard and it should be plugged directly into a properly
grounded receptacle. Do not cut or remove the grounding
prong from this plug. If the plug fails to fit into an existing outlet,
contact a qualified electrician to update the outlet.
Use proper extension cord. The extension cord must be a
grounding-type 3-wire cord. A short power-supply cord should
be used to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in
or tripping over a longer cord. Extension cords are available
and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If an exten-
sion 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 and 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.

Parts and Features
OPTI-HEATTM System
Optimal Heat Delivery:
The precision placement of the No Peek Waffle Maker’s
heating elements, along with the internal temperature sensor,
helps maintain even heat across the waffle plates. This means
you’ll enjoy evenly browned waffles, with a slight crust on the
outside and a tender texture on the inside.
Premium Materials:
Your No Peek Waffle Maker’s high performance bronze
nonstick finish is backed with our exclusive 5-year warranty,
and it offers flawless release as well as easy clean-up. The
waffle plates are made from heavy-gauge cast aluminum.
No PeekTM Progress Indicator – Our exclusive No Peek
LED control lights gradually illuminate as your waffles cook to
the selected level of browning – from “Light”, to “Medium” to
“Dark”. So, as the lights appear, you’ll see the progress and
know when your waffles are done without needing to take a
peek inside.
Elevated, Easy-to-Read Control – No more straining to
see control knobs and settings. The exclusive raised No Peek
control illuminates so you know when the waffle maker is “On”
and “Off”.
Sleek, Contoured Design – The updated, contoured shape
of your No Peek Waffle Maker complements contemporary
kitchen designs, and the sleek stainless steel housing coordi-
nates with other Calphalon countertop appliances.
4-Square Belgian-Style Waffle Plates – Enjoy restaurant
quality Belgian waffles in the comfort of your own kitchen. The
large waffle plates allow you to make four waffles at once. So,
whether you’re making breakfast for family or special dessert
waffles for friends, impress them with only the best.

7
Nonstick Coating For Easy Release – The premium
nonstick coated waffle plates eliminate the annoyance of waffle
batter that sticks. That means you won’t waste time scraping bits
of waffle from the plates.
Auto-Off Timer – For your safety, your Calphalon No Peek
Waffle Maker will automatically shut off if it is left on continu-
ously for 60 minutes. If you’re cooking a lot of waffles and
need it to operate longer, simply turn the control “Off” and then
turn it right back on.
Upright Storage – Save space in the kitchen with the con-
venient upright storage of the No Peek Waffle Maker. Just
close the No Peek Waffle Maker, slide the locking lever into
the locked position, and tuck the waffle maker away standing
upright for space-saving convenience.
Assembling Your No PeekTM Waffle Maker
1. Carefully remove all the pieces of the No Peek Waffle
Maker from the packaging and place on counter near
a suitable electrical outlet. (See page 5 for information
regarding electrical requirements.) Remove all packaging
materials, including any stickers or tags, from the waffle
maker before first use.
2. Before the first use, wipe the waffle plates with a
damp cloth.
3. Plug power cord into 3-prong electrical outlet and continue
with steps for “Operating Your No Peek Waffle Maker”.

8
Operating Your No PeekTM Waffle Maker
Setting The Controls
Step 1: Choose the desired shade setting. Turn the
control knob clockwise to the desired level of browning – light,
medium or dark.
Step 2: Allow the No PeekTM Waffle Maker to
preheat. As the waffle maker preheats, the lights between
“Off” and your chosen setting will gradually illuminate. Once
the light next to your chosen setting illuminates, the No Peek
Waffle Maker chime will sound, indicating that it is ready to
cook waffles.
Step 3: Add batter to the no peek waffle maker.
Open the No Peek Waffle Maker and pour approximately 2
cups of waffle batter evenly over the bottom plate. Use a tem-
perature resistant nylon or wood utensil to spread the batter
evenly over the bottom plate. Close the No Peek Waffle Maker.
NOTE: The premium bronze nonstick finish of your Calphalon
No PeekTM Waffle Maker means that you do not need to grease
the waffle plates – not even the first time you use it.
WHEN POURING BATTER OR REMOVING WAFFLES FROM
THE WAFFLE MAKER, PREVENT THE WAFFLE MAKER FROM
ACCIDENTALLY CLOSING BY HOLDING THE HANDLE FOR
THE UPPER WAFFLE PLATE WITH AN OVEN MITT.
As the waffles cook, the No Peek lights gradually illuminate
to your selected level of browning – from “Light” to “Medium”
to “Dark”. As the lights appear, you’ll track the progress of your
waffles cooking, and know when they are done – without
peeking inside.
WARNING

Step 4: Remove waffles. When the waffles are done,
a chime will sound. Open the waffle maker and remove the
waffles carefully with a heat resistant nylon or wood utensil.
Using the Storage Lock Lever
THE STORAGE LOCK LEVER MAY BE HOT WHILE THE WAFFLE
MAKER IS IN USE. ALLOW THE WAFFLE MAKER TO FULLY
COOL BEFORE LOCKING IT FOR STORAGE. USE CARE
WHEN ADJUSTING THE STORAGE LOCK LEVER.
Your Calphalon No Peek Waffle Maker includes a locking
feature that holds the waffle maker together so you can conve-
niently store it upright.
1. After use, allow the No Peek Waffle Maker to
completely cool.
2. Clean the waffle plates and housing as needed.
3. Close the No Peek Waffle Maker.
4. Slide the storage lock lever to the locked position.
Cleaning and Care
1. Metal utensils will damage the nonstick coating. Use only non-
metal, temperature resistant utensils, such as wood or nylon.
2. When you are done using the No Peek Waffle Maker, turn
it “Off” and carefully unplug it.
3. Allow the No Peek Waffle Maker to cool completely.
4. Clean the waffle plates with a clean, damp cloth.
5. Wipe the No Peek Waffle Maker base with a clean, damp
cloth. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as
they may scratch the surface of the No Peek Waffle Maker.
WARNING

10
DO NOT IMMERSE THE WAFFLE MAKER IN WATER OR SPRAY
WATER ONTO THE WAFFLE PLATES.
Frequently Asked Questions
The waffles I made were rounded on the edges
instead of square. What happened? You probably didn’t
use enough waffle batter. Our No Peek Waffle Maker takes
about 2 cups of batter per batch, though you may need to
experiment to determine the right amount for the way you like
to make waffles. Be sure to use a heat-resistant nylon or wood
utensil to spread the batter evenly over the bottom plate so that
all of the corners are filled. This will ensure that every waffle is
beautifully shaped.
My waffles stuck to the grates. What did I do
wrong? Be sure you preheat the No Peek Waffle Maker
before adding the batter. Turn the knob to the desired level of
browning and then wait until all of the lights between “Off” and
that setting are illuminated and the chime sounds.
If I want to make two waffles instead of four, can
I fill half of the no peek waffle maker at a time?
Yes, simply use half the amount of batter and pour it over half of
the waffle plates.
Is it important to follow the waffle recipes in this
guide, or can I use my grandmother’s waffle recipe?
Use any of your favorite waffle recipes, and then try some of
ours. We have creative new ideas we’re sure your family
will love, too. Waffles are great for breakfast, lunch and even
dessert.
