5. Fill measuring scoop with batter to fill line. Pour batter evenly into the center of the waffle grid. For mini Belgian units, pour 1 oz. of batter in each waffle mold. Use a heatproof spatula to spread the batter evenly over the grid. Close the lid and rotate the unit 180°. 6. Once the waffle is ready and the waffle maker has beeped 3 times, rotate the waffle maker 180°, open the lid and remove waffle by gently loosening the edges with a heatproof plastic spatula. Never use metal utensils, as they may damage the nonstick coating. 7. For double waffle makers, multiple waffles can be baked at one time. For one waffle, simply follow previous instructions. For more than one waffle at once, pour batter into top waffle compartment, then rotate 180˚. You will now be able to open the other waffle compartment. Pour the batter in the grids and rotate another 180˚ in the other direction. Both waffles will now cook. There are individual green READY lights that will illuminate when each waffle is baked, and when an empty compartment is ready to bake another waffle.

WAFFLE PLATE CLEANING & MAINTENANCE Clean daily and diligently; doing so will ensure that your waffle maker works properly and continues to work well over time. How to Clean Waffle Plates Once you have finished baking each day, turn the switch to the OFF position and remove plug from electrical outlet. Leave top lid open and allow plates to cool before cleaning. Be certain plates have cooled completely before cleaning Never take your waffle maker apart for cleaning. Brush crumbs from grooves and absorb any excess cooking oil by wiping with a dry cloth or paper towel. You may clean the plates by wiping with a damp cloth to prevent staining and sticking from batter or oil buildup. If batter adheres to plates, simply pour a little cooking oil onto the baked batter and let stand approximately 5 minutes. This will allow the batter to soften and will make it easier to remove. 6 To help remove oil buildup and batter residue, place a damp paper towel in between the waffle plates and close the lid. Allow to sit for a few minutes. 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.

Although removable, these plates are not intended to be removed for routine cleaning.
