OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Place the Kitidea®Belgian waffle Maker on a clean, flat surface.
2. Plug the power cord into a standard electrical outlet
3.To preheat your Kitidea®Belgian waffle Maker, turn the control knob dial to your preferred
setting. The ready indicator light located on the in the control panel of the waffle maker will
light up when fully heated. (Heat-uptime should take approximately 4 minutes for the first
waffle of each baking session.)
4. After waffle maker is preheated, season waffle plates with cooking spray or brush with a
flavorless oil to thoroughly coat all surfaces. If s important that you preheat the waffle maker
before seasoning with cooking spray or oil. Your waffle maker is now ready to bake.
5. After the waffle maker is preheated and ready for baking, open the waffle maker lid.
6. Fill the provided batter cup with batter.Pour the batter evenly across the waffle plates. Use a
heatproof spatula to spread the batter evenly over the grids.
7. Close the lid and rotate the handle 180° to the right. The Heating indicator light will turn off.
NOTE: Baking time is determined by the browning setting chosen. It may take up to 4 minutes
longer to bake your waffles on a higher setting.
8. When the waffle is baked, the unit will beep three times, the Heating light indicator will
turn on.
Note: The browning and baking time of the waffle according to your perference. If you think
the waffle is not cooked enough after 1 baking cycle (the first buzzer and the heating indicator
light ON), please wait 1-2 more cycles of baking. Once the waffle maker is heated for the first
time, the cooking cycle time will be faster. It will take approx. 5-8mins to reach the optimal
temperature.
Rotate the handle 180° to the left and open the lid. To remove the waffle, gently loosen the
edges with a heatproof spatula. Never use stainless steel utensils, as they may damage the
nonstick coating.
9. Repeat the above process if making additional waffles. It is not necessary to spray the
waffle grids before each new waffle.
When you are finished baking, always unplug the power cord from the wall outlet Allow the
waffle maker to cool down completely before handling. The waffle plates have been treated
with a special nonstick PTFE 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.
For Protection
1. When the circuit board cannot collect any temperature in 2 minutes, the buzzer alarm for a
long time (very rapid noise), the entire circuit will be powered off, no power.
2. When the whole machine continues to bum empty for 1 hour, not in use, the entire circuit
board will automatically lose power. No power, stop heating.

CLEANING AND CARE
Once you have finished baking, remove plug from electrical outlet. Leave the top lid open and
allow grids to cool before cleaning. Never take your Belgian waffle maker 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-on batter and let stand about 5 minutes.
This will soften the batter 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 LIQUIDS.
Hand-wash drip tray.
Care: Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized service representative.
TIPS
•Packaged Belgian waffle mixes found in most supermarkets may be used with this unit.
•For best results, we recommend filling the supplied measuring cup to the top so it will fill the
waffle plates.
•For evenly filled waffles, pour the batter into the center of the lower plate and spread out
evenly to the edges. The entire waffle plate should be filled.
•For added convenience while baking waffles, rest the measuring cup on the Lip of the bowl
containing the batter until the next baking cycle.
•We recommend turning the browning control dial to setting #4 when using commercial
pancake/waffle mixes and for the included recipes. If you prefer crisper, darker Belgian
waffles, set the browning control higher. If you prefer lighter waffles, turn the browning
control dial down.
•If waffles tend to stick to waffle plates, add slightly more oil or butter to the batter.
•Belgian waffles taste best when made to order, but baked Belgian waffles may be kept warm
in a 200°F oven. Place them in a baking pan or wrap them in foil while in the oven, waffles
wrapped in foil may lose their crispness.
•Baked waffles may be frozen. Allow them to cool completely, and then place them in a
plastic food storage bag. Use waxed paper to keep waffles separated. Reheat in an oven,
toaster or toaster oven when ready to serve.
