IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including

the following:

1. Read all instructions.

2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles.

3. To protect against electric shock, do not immerse power cord, plug or appliance in water

or other liquid.

4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.

5. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool completely before

putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning the appliance.

6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or after the appliance

malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Return appliance to VillaWare for

examination, repair or electrical or mechanical adjustment.

7. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by appliance manufacturer may

cause fire, electric shock or injury.

8. Do not use outdoors.

9. Do not let power cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.

10. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.

11. Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot oil or other

hot liquids.

12. To disconnect, remove plug from outlet.

13. Do not use appliance for other than intended use.

HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from being entangled in or

tripping over a longer cord. There are longer extension cords available from a variety of retail

stores and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If a long extension cord is used, the

marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical

rating of the waffler appliance. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not

drape over the countertop or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped

over unintentionally.

POLARIZED PLUG

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of

electrical shock, this plug will fit only one way into a polarized outlet. If the plug does not fit fully

into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not

modify the plug in any way.

USING YOUR WAFFLER

For best results, follow these simple instructions. When your waffler is heated for the first time, it

may emit slight smoke or odor. This is normal with many heating appliances. This does not

affect the safety of your appliance. However, it may affect the flavor of the first set of waffles

prepared in your waffler, and it is recommended that you discard these.

1. Set the Waffle Browning Control to your desired setting. At first, try a setting between 3 & 4.

You may later adjust it lower or higher according to your preference. A lower setting

produces a lighter colored waffle, while waffles made at a higher setting are darker and

crisper. Different waffle batters will also cook up differently. Over time, you will find your

perfect setting for the batter you use.

2. Close waffler and plug into 110/120 volt AC wall outlet. The red indicator light will go on,

indicating that the waffler has begun preheating. It will take approximately 5 to 8 minutes to

reach baking temperature. The red power light will remain on until you unplug your waffler.

3. Before baking the first waffles of the day, use a pastry brush to lightly coat the top and bottom

waffle grids with vegetable oil. A light coating of non-stick cooking spray also works well.

4. When the proper baking temperature is reached, the green light will go on and the

Waffle-Tone™ alert will sound. Once heated up, cycle times will be faster.

5. Pour batter onto bottom grid of waffler. The green light will go off as the baking cycle begins.

6. Close waffler and do not open for at least 1 1⁄2 minutes. Opening the lid too soon will cause

under-baked waffles to split, making them difficult to remove.

7. When the green light goes on again and the Waffle-Tone alert sounds, your waffles should

be done according to the Waffle Browning Control setting that you’ve chosen. If you want

them darker, close the lid and continue baking until the desired color is achieved.

2007_Booklet.qxd 6/11/04 11:27 AM Page 3

8. Remove waffles from the grid using non-metallic utensils.

9. If additional baking is to be done, close waffler to retain heat. Always be sure the green

light goes on and the Waffle-Tone alert sounds again before making more waffles.

10. If you need to take a short break, close waffler to maintain heat. When you return to

baking, you will notice that the first waffles will bake faster because extra heat has been

allowed to build up.

11. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is being used by or near children.

12. When baking is complete, simply unplug power cord from wall outlet to turn waffler off.

Leave waffler open to cool. Do not clean waffler until unit is cooled.

WAFFLE BAKING TIPS

• When preparing waffle batter, do not over mix or waffles will be tough. Stir batter only until

large lumps of dry ingredients disappear.

• The optimal amount of batter to produce a full-shaped waffle, without overflowing, will vary

with different waffle batters. Pouring batter from a measuring cup will help you gauge how

much batter to use each time. Boat waffles require a scant 1/2 cup batter each, or about

3/4 to 1 cup for 2 boats.

• You may want to “perforate” the two boat waffles with a plastic fork to separate boats

before removing from waffler. Cake-based waffles, such as the Pound Cake and Chocolate

Waffles, are more tender than regular waffles, and may require more care when handling.

You may want to use a spatula to support these waffles when removing from

the waffler.

• To retain crispness, move baked waffles to a wire cooling rack to prevent steam from

accumulating underneath.

• When serving several waffles at one time, keep waffles hot and crisp by placing on a rack

in a preheated 200°F oven until ready to serve.

• Already cooled waffles can be re-warmed and re-crisped, individually, by returning to hot

waffler. Set Waffle Browning Control between 1 & 4. Place waffle on grid so grooves match

up; close lid and heat for 1 to 2 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.

4

2007_Booklet.qxd 6/11/04 11:27 AM Page 4

• For more perfectly shaped waffles, trim edges with kitchen shears before serving.

• Baked waffles freeze well. Cool completely on wire rack. Store in plastic freezer bag or in

covered container, separating waffles with wax paper. Reheat frozen waffles in toaster

oven, oven or toaster until hot and crisp.

CLEANING AND CARE

Here are a few easy steps to keep your waffler looking and working like new:

1. Always unplug the waffler and allow it to cool before cleaning. There is no need to

disassemble the waffler for cleaning. Never immerse the waffler in water or place

in dishwasher.

2. Brush away any loose crumbs from the grooves. Wipe grids clean with 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.

3. Wipe the outside of the waffler with a damp cloth only. Do not clean the outside with any

abrasive scouring pad or steel wool, as this will damage the finish. A little metal polish suitable

for aluminum may be used occasionally on the top housing. Do not immerse in water or

any other liquid. Do not place in the dishwasher.

4. Should 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 off with a paper towel or soft cloth.

5. Do not use metal utensils to remove your waffles, they can damage the non-stick surface.

waffles by omitting cornstarch and increasing flour to 1 1/3 cups. Bake as directed.

mixer bowl, beat egg white until soft peaks form. Add sugar; beat just until stiff peaks form. Set

aside. In medium bowl, whisk together egg yolk, milk and vanilla. Using rubber spatula, stir milk

mixture into flour mixture, mixing just until dry ingredients are moistened. Stir in melted butter.
