HOW TO:
USING YOUR OSTER® FLIP BELGIAN WAFFLE MAKER
For best results, follow these simple instructions.
When your wae maker is heated for the rst time, it may
emit slight smoke or odor. This is normal with many heating
appliances. This does not aect the safety of your appliance.
However, it may aect the avor of the rst set of waes
prepared in your wae maker, and it is recommended that
you discard these.
Preparing Your Flip Belgian Wae Maker
1Close the wae maker and plug it into the wall outlet, you
will notice that the red power light will turn on. Turn the
temperature control knob to the desired setting. It will take
approximately 5 to 8 minutes to reach baking temperature.
When the Green Ready Light goes on, the wae maker is
ready for use.
2Before baking the rst waes of the day, use a pastry brush
to lightly coat the top and bottom wae grids with
vegetable oil. A light coating of non-stick cooking spray
also works well.
Baking
1When the proper baking temperature is reached, the green
light will go on. Once heated up, cycle times will be faster.
2Pour batter onto bottom grid of wae maker. Ladle just
enough batter to ll lower grid so that the peak area of the
grid is covered. If necessary, use a spatula to spread the
batter in to the corners of the grid. At this point the green
light will go o as the baking cycle begins.

3Close wae maker and rotate unit 180º to the right
(clockwise). Do not open for at least 11⁄2minutes. Opening
the lid too soon will cause under-baked waes to split,
making them dicult to remove.
4When the green light goes on again, rotate wae maker 180º
to the left (counterclockwise). Your waes should be done
according to the Wae Temperature Control setting that
you’ve chosen. If you want them darker, close the lid and
continue baking until the desired color is achieved.
5Remove waes from the grid using non-metallic utensils.
6If additional baking is to be done, close wae maker to
retain heat. Always be sure the green light goes on again
before making more waes.
7If you need to take a short break, close wae maker to
maintain heat. When you return to baking, you will notice
that the rst waes will bake faster because extra heat has
been allowed to build up.
8Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is being
used by or near children.
9When baking is complete, simply unplug the power cord
from wall outlet. Leave wae maker open to cool. Do not
clean until unit has cooled.
Wae Baking Tips
1Set the Wae Temperature Control to your desired setting.
At rst, try a setting in the middle. You may later adjust it
lower or higher according to your preference. A lower setting
produces a lighter colored wae, while waes made at a
higher setting are darker and crisper. Dierent wae batters
will also cook up dierently. Over time, you will nd your
perfect setting for the batter you use.
2When preparing wae batter, do not over mix or waes will
be tough. Stir batter only until large lumps of dry ingredients
disappear.

3The optimal amount of batter to produce a full-shaped
wae, without overowing, will vary with dierent wae
batters. Pouring batter from a measuring cup will help you
gauge how much batter to use each time. Fill bottom grid
of wae maker with enough batter to cover peak areas of
the grid.
4For more evenly shaped waes, spread thick batters to
outer edge of grid, using a heat proof rubber spatula or
other non-metallic utensil before closing lid.
5Cake-based waes, such as the Chocolate Waes are more
tender than regular waes, and may require more care
when removing from wae maker. You may want to break
these waes into halves or quarters before removing. Use
a spatula to support waes when removing from the
wae maker.
6To retain crispness, move baked waes to a wire cooling
rack to prevent steam from accumulating underneath.
7When serving several waes at one time, keep waes
hot and crisp by placing on a rack in a preheated 200°F
oven until ready to serve.
8Already cooled waes can be re-warmed and re-crisped,
individually, by returning to hot wae maker. Set Wae
Temperature Control to low. Place wae on grid so grooves
match up; close lid and heat for 1 to 2 minutes, watching
carefully to prevent burning.
9Baked waes freeze well. Cool completely on wire rack.
Store in plastic freezer bag or in covered container,
separating waes with wax paper. Reheat frozen waes
in toaster oven, oven or toaster until hot and crisp.

CARE & CLEANING
Here are a few easy steps to keep your wae maker
looking and working like new:
1Always unplug the wae maker and allow it to cool before
cleaning. There is no need to disassemble the wae maker
for cleaning. Never immerse the wae maker in water or
place in dishwasher.
2Brush away any loose crumbs from the grooves. Wipe grids
clean with a paper towel, absorbing any oil or butter that
might be down in the grooves of the grid. You can also wipe
grids with a damp cloth. Do not use anything abrasive that
can scratch or damage the non-stick coating.
3Wipe the outside of the wae maker with a damp cloth only.
Do not clean the outside with any abrasive scouring pad or
steel wool, as this will damage the nish. A little metal polish
suitable for stainless steel may be used occasionally on the
top housing. Do not immerse in water or any other liquid.
Do not place in the dishwasher.
4Should any batter become baked onto the grids, pour a little
cooking oil onto the hardened batter. Let sit 5 minutes to
soften batter, then wipe o with a paper towel or soft cloth.
5Do not use metal utensils to remove your waes, they can
damage the non-stick surface.
