OPERATING PROCEDURE: 1. Close the lid of the waffle iron and plug into a standard wall outlet. Allow the waffle iron to preheat. The green indicator light will come on when the appliance is ready to use. 2. Open the lid and pour the required amount of batter (approx. ½ cup) onto the iron. Pour the batter into the centre of the lower waffle iron. Spread the batter around the iron with a plastic spatula. 3. Close the lid. The green light will go off and the red light will illuminate. 4. When the waffles are ready the green light will come on. Open the lid and remove the waffle by gently loosening the edges with a heat proof plastic spatula and transfer the waffle to a plate. Do not touch the waffle iron while removing the waffle as the metal is very hot.
CLEAN UP: 1. When finished disconnect the plug from the wall outlet, open the lid and allow the appliance to cool down. 2. Clean the waffle iron by brushing the crumbs from the grooves and absorb any excess cooking oil by wiping with a dry cloth or paper towel. Irons can be cleaned further by wiping with a damp cloth to prevent staining and sticking from batter or oil build up. 3. Wipe the outside of the appliance with a damp cloth.
