Preparing WafflesAn Introduction to your Sunbeam
Shade Select Vertical Waffle Maker
Before using your Sunbeam Shade
Select Vertical Waffle Maker
Now you and the whole family can make
golden brown, fluffy waffles at home, using
your choice of delicious and imaginative
fillings & toppings.
Prepare waffles for breakfast or brunch and
pile them high with fresh fruits, whipped
cream or just plain butter and warmed
syrup.
With your Sunbeam Shade Select Vertical
Waffle Maker the unique upright pouring
funnel helps to prevent messy overflow,
giving you the perfect fill for perfect
waffles every time! Plus, the non-stick
grids make clean up easy. It's a great
addition to any kitchen.
1. Open unit by pressing the side button on
the handle and allowing the front waffle
plate to come forward.
2. Clean cooking plates with cloth or
sponge, dampened with hot, soapy
water.
CAUTION: Do not immerse unit in water.
Rinse with dampened cloth or sponge
and wipe dry.
3. Season the grid plates by applying a thin
coat of cooking oil onto the surface and
rub in with paper towel. Alternatively
add oil to paper towel and rub over the
grid plates. After this initial seasoning,
there is no need to season the plates
after each use.
Note: When using your Sunbeam Shade
Select Vertical Waffle Maker for the first
time, you may notice a fine smoke haze
being emitted. This is normal and is
due to the initial heating of the internal
components.
1. Close unit and plug into outlet.
CAUTION: During use or after use do not
touch the pouring funnel at the top of
the unit as it will be hot.
Touch the unit at the side handle or the
control panel only during use or directly
after use.
Cooking Tip: Select a darker shade when
cooking heavier and more dense batters.
2. Use the Shade Select dial to select your
desired waffle texture. The screen will
display the words "Pre-heating" whilst it
is increasing it's temperature.
The Waffle Maker will beep once it has
reached the correct temperature and the
screen will display "Ready to cook".
3. Fill the measuring cup up to the very
top with waffle batter and pour into the
pouring funnel. Use a spatula to ensure
all batter is poured into the unit. User
should be advised to use caution when
pouring batter into the unit as the top of
the pouring funnel is very hot.
CAUTION: Do not add more scoops of
batter. This will result in overflow and
give uneven results.
4. The control panel will count down the
time you have left to wait until your
waffles are ready.
5. When the timer is done, it will beep
and display "Cooking Complete" on
the display panel. This indicates that
the waffles are done. Press the release
button on the side handle to open the
front waffle plate.
CAUTION: The pouring funnel is
extremely hot!
6. Close unit and wait for the Pre-Heating
indication to come on before preparing
another waffle.
Note: Opening the Waffle Maker before
waffles are finished cooking will cause
waffle batter to separate, resulting in
torn waffles.

Hints For Tasty Waffles
• Select a darker shade when cooking
heavier and more dense batters.
• Do not over-mix waffle batter. Beating
egg whites separately and folding them
gently into the batter will create a
lighter, crispier waffle.
• Setting No.1 will produce the fluffiest
and lightest colour waffles. Setting 5
will produce the crispier darker colour
waffles. Experiment to determine which
setting produces the best waffle colour
for you. We recommend setting No. 3 for
golden brown waffles.
• Don't open the Waffle Maker while steam
is escaping from sides and front of the
unit.
• We recommend using the provided
measuring cup. Depending on the
thickness of the batter, you may be
using between ¾ and 1 cup of batter per
waffle.
• Do not overfill the waffle maker – it
should not be filled to the top of the
funnel. Always fill the measuring scoop
full to the top. Do not add more batter to
the waffle maker.
• Thicker batters should be added a bit
more carefully, being sure that the batter
in the funnel drips into the grid plate
before adding more.
• Batters should be whisked well to be
sure there are no lumps. If the batter is
not flowing easily through the funnel, it
is too thick. Either whisk to a smoother
batter, or add additional liquid, 1
tablespoon at a time.
• Why not freeze prepared waffles for
those busy days ahead? Just bake the
waffles as directed. Cool on a wire rack
and wrap in moisture-proof paper or
plastic. Quickly reheat in our oven or
microwave.
Always unplug your Shade Select Vertical
Wafe Maker and allow it to cool completely
before cleaning it. NEVER immerse the
MAIN body, power cord or plug in water or
any other liquid. To prevent damage to the
appliance do not use alkaline cleaning agents
when cleaning, use a soft cloth and a mild
detergent.
• Carefully wipe off oil after each batch
of waffles, prior to making the next
batch. This will improve the cooking
quality and prevent excess oil. The
waffle batter should be poured with the
included measuring cup for the perfect
fill.
• Always use a plastic utensil to lift the
waffles from the waffle maker.
• Do not use metal utensils as these will
scratch the non-stick surface.
To clean after use
Always turn the power OFF and remove the
plug before cleaning.
Do not immerse the Waffle Maker in water
or any other liquid.
Do not use abrasives or metal scourers as
they will scratch the non-stick grid plates
and the exterior surface.
To clean the non-stick grid plates
Wipe over the plates with a dampened
cloth.
To clean the exterior
Wipe over with a dampened cloth and
polish with a soft dry cloth.
To clean cooked-on stains
Should your waffle maker require additional
cleaning of stubborn build up and
stains, the following cleaning method is
recommended:
1. Combine 2 tablespoons of bicarbonate
or baking soda with water to make a
paste.
2. Turn the power OFF and remove the
plug. Ensure the cooking plates are
cool.
3. Using a damp cloth, wipe the mixture
on the cooking plates to remove all
residue.
4. Before using the waffle maker again,
re-season the non-stick surface by
applying a little oil, and wiping clean
with paper towel.
This appliance has no user serviceable
parts. Any servicing beyond that described
in the Cleaning Section should be
performed by an Authorised Service
Representative only. See Warranty Section.
