a molded 3-prong
grounding-type plug
and should be used
in combination with
a properly connected
grounding-type outlet
as shown in the figure.
SPECIAL CORD SET INSTRUCTIONS
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks
resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a
longer cord. Longer extension cords are available and

as the electrical rating of the appliance, and the longer
cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the
countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by
children or animals, or tripped over.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
1. Before using your Waring Pro® Professional Belgian
Waffle Maker for the first time, remove any dust from
shipping by wiping the plates with a damp cloth.
Remove all protective paper and wrapping.
2. Plug cord into 120V AC wall or outlet. Switch the
toggle switch to the On position. The red light will
go on to signal power. The waffle maker will now
begin the preheating process. This should take
about 4 minutes. The waffle maker will sound 6
beeps and the green indicator light will go on to
signal the unit is ready for baking. Season the waffle
grids by spraying with cooking spray or brushing
with a flavorless oil.
For initial use, it is important that the waffle maker
is preheated before seasoning with cooking spray
or oil.
NOTE: The first time you use your waffle maker, it may
have a slight odor and may smoke a bit. This is normal,
and common to heating appliances.
3. Push slide button on handle into up position to
extend the handle for baking waffles. When baking
is competed, push button on handle into down
position to collapse handle for compact storage
4. Preheat your Waring Pro® Belgian Waffle Maker on
setting #4 or preferred setting (green indicator
light will be illuminated when preheated).
For best results, do not open waffle maker during
cooking process. Doing so will offset the timing
mechanism.

5. Using the recipes provided (fill measuring scoop to
3
fill line ⁄4 or to top of measuring scoop depending on
3
the recipe. For loose batters, fill to the ⁄4 mark; for
thicker batters fill to the top) and pour batter evenly
into the center of the waffle grids. Use a heatproof
spatula to spread the batter evenly over the grids.
Close the lid and rotate the unit 180° to the right.
6. When the waffle is completely baked, the waffle
maker will sound 3 beeps. Baking time is
determined by browning level. Choose a setting
on the browning control dial. For golden brown
waffles, we recommend using setting #4.
7. Once the waffle is ready and the waffle maker
has beeped 3 times, rotate the waffle maker 180°
to the left, 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.
8. Always disconnect the plug from the wall outlet,
once baking has been completed.

TIPS FOR MAKING PERFECT
BELGIAN WAFFLES
We recommend setting #4 when using commercial
pancake/waffle mixes.
We recommend setting #4 for Belgian waffle recipes.
If you prefer crisper, darker Belgian waffles, increase
the browning control.
For evenly filled waffles, pour the batter into the center
of the lower grid and spread out evenly to the edges.
The entire lower grid should be filled.
3
For best results, we recommend using ⁄4 cup batter or
enough to fill the entire lower grid.
For added convenience while baking waffles, rest
measuring scoop with handle hanging on outside of bowl
and scoop on inside of bowl until the next baking cycle.
To measure flour, stir the flour first to aerate it, since it
settles when it sits. Then spoon it into a measuring cup,
leveling off the top with the back of a knife – do not pack
down into measuring cup. These quick steps will help
you avoid heavy waffles. Belgian waffles taste best
when made to order, but baked Belgian waffles may be
kept warm in a 200˚F oven. Place in a baking pan or wrap
in foil while in the oven. Waffles wrapped in foil may lose
their crispness.
Baked waffles may be frozen. Allow to cool completely,
and then place in plastic food storage bag. Use waxed
paper to keep waffles separated. Reheat in an oven,
toaster or toaster oven when ready to use.

RECIPES
CLASSIC BELGIAN WAFFLES
Classic Belgian waffles have a crispy outside and are soft
and moist on the inside. They are often served as part of
a celebration – even to celebrate something as simple as
a beautiful day. Try these waffles with your favorite syrup
or a topping such as sliced fresh strawberries and freshly
whipped cream.

Heat ½ of the water to lukewarm, 105°-110° F. Dissolve
the yeast in the water with a pinch of the sugar from the
recipe; let stand 5 to 10 minutes, until the mixture begins
to foam.
Put the flour and salt into a large bowl; stir to blend and
reserve. Add the egg yolks, one of the egg whites, and
remaining sugar to the yeast mixture; stir to blend. Add
the remaining water, milk, melted butter, oil, and vanilla;

stir until the mixture is smooth. Stir the liquid mixture into
the flour mixture and beat until the mixture is smooth.
Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Fold the egg
whites gently into the batter. Let the batter stand for
1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes.
Preheat your Waring Pro® Belgian Waffle Maker on
setting #4 or preferred setting (green indicator light will
be illuminated when preheated).
For best results, do not open waffle maker during cook-
ing process. Doing so will offset the timing mechanism.
Use the measuring scoop to measure the batter and pour
into the preheated waffle iron. Use a heatproof spatula
to spread the batter evenly over the grids. Close lid and
rotate wafflemaker 180˚ to the right. Bake the waffles in
the waffle iron until beeper indicates that the waffle is
done. Rotate waffle maker 180˚ to the left. Remove waffle
and repeat until all batter is used. Waffles may be kept
warm in a slow (200°F) oven. Place waffles arranged on
a cookie sheet on a rack in the warm oven. Serve with
whipped cream, fruit, jam, powdered sugar, or a warm
fruit syrup.
*We recommend using setting #4 to achieve a golden
brown baked Belgian waffle. Adjust the browning control
if you prefer lighter or darker waffles.

maker in the morning, stir the batter and have a freshly

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Once you have finished baking, switch toggle to the Off
position; remove plug from electrical outlet. Leave top
lid open and allow grids to cool before cleaning.
Never take your Belgian waffle maker apart for cleaning.
Simply brush crumbs from grooves, and absorb any
excess cooking oil by wiping with a dry cloth or paper
towel. You may clean the grids by wiping with a damp
cloth, to prevent staining and sticking from batter or oil
buildup.
Be certain that grids have cooled completely before
cleaning. If batter adheres to plates, simply pour a
little cooking oil onto the baked batter and let stand
approximately 5 minutes, allowing batter to soften
for easy removal.
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 LIQUID.
