This appliance is equipped with a polarized plug in which one prong is wider
than the other. This is a safety feature to reduce the risk of electrical shock. The
plug will t into a polarized outlet only 1 way. If you are unable to insert the plug
into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If it still does not t, contact a qualied
electrician. DO NOT attempt to modify the plug in any way. Montgomery Ward can
not accept any liability for damage or injury resulting from failure to observe these
safety procedures.

soap. Wipe with a clean, soft, damp cloth and towel dry.
6. DO NOT immerse any cord, plug or electrical appliance into water.
7. Ensure all parts are dried thoroughly before using or storing this
appliance.
Note: Leave enough space between sides of wafe maker and walls to
allow for airow.

will come on as the unit begins heating. Lid should be closed.
2. The green ready light will turn off when the wafe maker has reached

check the wafe for doneness. If more time is needed, check after
another minute.

NOT use metal utensils as they may damage the nonstick surface of the
wafe plates.
9. Close the lid and wait for the green ready light to go off before adding
more batter.
