Wait for the waffle baker to pre-heat When the waffle baker
has reached operating temperature, a tone will sound and the
indicator light will stop flashing and glow continuously. The
needle on the dial thermometer will also be in the "ready" range.
Set the baking timer by turning the Timer Adjustment Dial.
Rotate the dial clockwise to increase the time on the baking
timer display; rotate the dial counter<lockwise to decrease the
time. The baking time can be set in 15 second increments from
a minimum of 2 minutes, 30 seconds (2:30) to a maximum of
5 minutes, 30 seconds (5:30). Longer baking times will
produce darker, crispier waffles. For your first waffles, a good
starting time is 3 minutes, 30 seconds (3:30).
_: Open the baker lid by lifting the topmost handle. Make certain
the lid is securely seated against the base before releasing the
handle: if this is not done, the baking unit may rotate
unexpectedly when the handle is released.
