• Warning: Hot surfaces! Never touch the Cooking Surface or Cover while appliance is in use. Always lift and lower the Cover by the Cover Handle.

• DO NOT lift the Cover with your arm positioned over the Removable Plates. They are hot and may cause injury.

• To prevent the risk of fire, electric shock, or personal injury, do not put cord, plug, or appliance in or near water or other liquids. The Mini Waffle Maker is NOT dishwasher safe.

• Never use abrasive cleaning agents to clean the appliance as this may damage the Mini Waffle Maker and its nonstick Cooking Surface.

• Do not operate this appliance with a damaged cord, damaged plug, after the appliance malfunctions, is dropped, or damaged in any manner. Return appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair or adjustment.

• DO NOT use the Mini Waffle Maker near water or other liquids, with wet hands, or while standing on a wet surface.

• Do not use metal utensils on the Cooking Surface as this will damage the nonstick surface.

• This appliance can be used by persons with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities or lack of experience of knowledge, if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved.

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

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

• Refrain from using attachments that are not recommended by the appliance manufacturer, as this may result in fire, electric shock, or personal injury.

• Allow Mini Waffle Maker to cool completely before moving, cleaning, or storing.

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

• Do not let the cord touch hot surfaces or hang over the edge of tables or counters.

• Always be sure to unplug the appliance from outlet prior to moving, cleaning, storage, and when not in use.

• StoreBound shall not accept liability for damages caused by improper use of the appliance.

• Improper use of the Mini Waffle Maker can result in property damage or even in personal injury.

• This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not completely fit in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

• A short power supply cord is to be provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. An extension cord may be used if care is exercised in its use. If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounding 3-wire cord. The extension cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.

The Mini Waffle Maker includes the following parts and features:

• Indicator Light: Shows when the waffle maker is heating up.

• Cover: The top lid of the appliance.

• Cover Handle: Use this to safely open and close the cover.

• Cooking Surfaces: The non-stick plates for cooking waffles.

• Non-Slip Feet: Keeps the appliance stable on your counter.

Before first use, remove all packaging material and thoroughly clean the Mini Waffle Maker.

1. Place the appliance on a stable and dry surface. Plug the cord into a power outlet. The Indicator Light will illuminate signaling that the Mini Waffle Maker is heating up.

2. Once the Cooking Surface reaches the optimal cooking temperature, the Indicator Light will automatically shut off indicating that the Maker is ready to begin cooking.

3. Carefully lift the Cover by the Cover Handle and grease both Cooking Surfaces with a small amount of cooking oil.

4. Pour batter onto the Cooking Surface and close the Cover.

5. Once waffle is cooked to preference, carefully remove it from the Cooking Surface with a heat-resistant nylon, wood, or silicone cooking utensil.

6. When finished cooking, unplug the Mini Waffle Maker and allow it to cool before moving or cleaning.

NOTE: Do not use metal utensils to remove or place food on the Cooking Surface as this will damage the nonstick surface.

NOTE: Aerosol cooking sprays often contain soy lecithin, an additive that can cause nonstick surfaces to become sticky and hard to clean over time. To ensure the longevity of your product, avoid aerosols and instead grease cooking surfaces using a silicone basting brush or a non-aerosol spray bottle.

Safety Warning: Never touch the Cooking Surface or Cover while the appliance is in use. Always lift and lower the Cover by the Cover Handle. Lift from the side. DO NOT lift the Cover with your arm positioned over the Removable Plates. They are hot and may cause injury.

Always allow the appliance to cool completely before moving, cleaning, or storing. Do not submerge appliance in water or any other liquids.

In order to keep the Mini Waffle Maker in pristine working order, thoroughly clean the appliance after each use once it cools off. This will prevent the build-up of food or oil.

• Unplug the Mini Waffle Maker and allow it to cool completely prior to cleaning.

• Using a damp, soapy cloth, wipe down the Cooking Surface and Cover. Thoroughly rinse the cloth and wipe again.

• Thoroughly dry the Mini Waffle Maker before storing.

• If any food remains, apply a small amount of cooking oil and let sit for 5-10 minutes. Then scrub the Cooking Surface with a sponge or soft-bristled brush to dislodge food. Use a damp, soapy cloth to wipe from Cooking Surface. Rinse the cloth thoroughly and wipe again. If food still remains, apply cooking oil once more and let sit for a few hours before scrubbing again.

• Never use abrasive cleaning agents to clean the appliance as this may damage its nonstick Cooking Surface.

This is normal. During the cooking process, the heating element will automatically turn on and off to regulate the temperature and ensure that the Removable Plates do not get too hot or cold. When this occurs, the Indicator Light turns on and off.

When the Mini Waffle Maker reaches the optimal temperature, the Indicator Light shuts off to indicate that it’s time to start cooking.

To turn on, simply plug in the power cord. When finished cooking, turn off the Mini Waffle Maker by unplugging it.

Yes, this is completely normal. When using the Mini Waffle Maker, always lift and lower the Cover by the Cover Handle. To prevent personal injury, DO NOT lift the Cover with your arm positioned over the Removable Plates. They are hot and may cause injury. Lift from the right side.

There is probably a build-up of burnt food residue on the Removable Plates. This is normal, especially when cooking with sugar. Allow the appliance to cool fully. Then, use a damp, soapy cloth to wipe down the Plates. Thoroughly rinse the cloth and wipe again. If any food remains, apply a small amount of cooking oil and let sit for a few hour. Then scrub with a soft bristled brush or soft sponge to wipe clean.
