Before First Use
1. Carefully unpack the Rotating Wafe Maker and remove all packaging
and materials.
2. Before using your Wafe Maker for the rst time, wipe the cooking
plates with a damp cloth to remove all dust, and then dry. Wipe outer
surfaces with a slightly damp, soft cloth or sponge.
CAUTION: Take care to prevent water from running into the appliance.
Never immerse ROTATING Wafe Maker BODY in water or any other
liquids!
3. Set the appliance on a dry, clean and at surface. Keep the handle folded
until use.
Operating Instructions
1. Unfold handle and lift top cooking plate. Make sure the Rotating Wafe
Maker’s bottom cooking plate is positioned at and locked into a stable
position. Before baking the rst wafes of the day, use a pastry brush to
lightly coat the top and bottom wafe plates with vegetable oil. Do not
use non-stick sprays as they can cause build-up on the cooking plates.
2. Plug unit into a 120 V AC electrical outlet. The red POWER light will
illuminate and remain lighted during use.
NOTE: When your Rotating Wafe Maker is heated for the rst time, it
may emit slight smoke or odor. This is normal and should disappear
after one or two uses. This does not affect the safety of the appliance.
However, as it may affect the avor of the rst wafes prepared in the
Wafe Maker, it is recommended that these be discarded.

3. Turn the temperature control dial to the MAX setting to preheat.
4. While preheating, prepare wafe batter.
5. After approximately 5 minutes, the blue READY light will illuminate,
indicating the unit is preheated and is ready for use.
6. Set the wafe temperature control to the desired setting. A lower setting
produces a lighter browned wafe, while wafes made at a higher
setting are darker and crispier. When preparing a recipe for the rst
time, set the control to the middle; then adjust according to preference.
Recipes will vary in cook time and brownness; batters with more sugar
will brown quicker. Note the perfect setting for each batter recipe for
future use.
7. Pour or ladle 3/4 to 1 cup batter onto the bottom cooking plate. Add
just enough batter to ll lower grid so that the peak area is covered. If
necessary, use a spatula to spread the batter in to the corners of the
plate. Try not to overll, batter will expand when cooked.
The drip tray will catch any spilled-over batter.
8. The blue READY light will turn off as the baking cycle begins.
9. Lower the top cooking plate to close the Rotating Wafe Maker and
rotate unit 180° to the bottom side.
10. The Rotating Wafe Maker will cook until the blue READY light (on the
backside of the Wafe Maker) illuminates. Rotate Wafe Maker 180° to
the top side, until it is at and locked into a stable position.
11. Lift the top cooking plate gently; if it pulls, continue cooking for 1 minute
and test again. Wafes should be baked according to the temperature
control setting chosen. If the wafes need to bake to a darker nish,
close the lid and continue baking until the desired color is achieved.

12. Remove wafes from the cooking plates using non-metallic utensils.
NOTE: If additional wafes are to be baked, keep the Rotating Wafe
Maker closed to retain heat. Always be sure the green light is illuminated
before baking more wafes.
NOTE: Wafes made later will bake faster because extra heat has been
retained.
13. When baking is complete, unplug the power cord from electric outlet.
Lift top cooking plate and allow to cool. Make sure the Rotating Wafe
Maker’s bottom cooking plate is positioned at and locked into a stable
position.
14. Do not clean until unit has been fully cooled.
Wafe Baking Tips
Recipes may be doubled.
Sift all dry ingredients together. It is not necessary to beat egg yolks and
milk separately.
Just add them to the combined our mixture and use a whisk or mixer to
blend the ingredients well.
Egg whites should be beaten until they form stiff peaks. Stir 1/4 of the
beaten whites into the batter to lighten it, and then gently fold in the
rest. There should be white streaks in the batter. Do not over-mix batter
when adding egg whites.
Do not open the Rotating Wafe Maker during the rst minute of baking
or the wafe will separate. Completely bake the wafe before removing.
When a wafe is done, the top cooking plate should lift easily. Lift the
plate gently; if it pulls, continue cooking for 1 minute and test again.
When preparing wafe batter, do not over-mix or wafes will be tough.
Stir batter only until large lumps of dry ingredients disappear.
The optimal amount of batter to produce a full-shaped wafe, without
overowing, will vary with different wafe batters. Pouring batter from a
measuring cup will help to gauge how much batter to use each time. Fill
bottom grid of Rotating Wafe Maker with enough batter to cover peak
areas of the grid about 3/4 to 1 cup.
For more evenly shaped wafes, spread thick batters to the outer edge
of the cooking plate using a heat-proof rubber spatula or other non-
metallic utensil before closing the lid.
Cake-based wafes are tenderer than regular wafes, and may require
more care when removing from the Wafe Maker. Use a spatula to
support wafes when removing from the Rotating Wafe Maker.
To retain crispness, move baked wafes to a paper napkin or a wire
cooling rack to absorb any condensation. To keep wafes hot, place in an
ovenproof dish on an oven rack and warm at about 200-250°F (90-120°C).
11
Wafes will keep for about 20 minutes before they begin to dry out.
Cooled wafes can be re-warmed and re-crisped individually, by
returning them to the hot Wafe Maker. Set wafe temperature control
to MIN. Place wafe on cooking plate so grooves match up; close lid and
heat for 1 to 2 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.
Baked wafes freeze well. Cool completely on a wire rack. Store in a
plastic freezer bag or in a covered container, separating wafes with wax
paper. Reheat frozen wafes in a toaster oven, oven or toaster until hot
and crisp.
For lower fat, lower cholesterol wafes:
Use skim milk.
Adapt recipes by eliminating the egg yolk. Always use liquid vegetable
oils such as canola, corn or sunower, instead of butter.
For higher ber wafes:
Substitute 1/2 cup or more of white our with whole-wheat our.
Substitute 1/4 cup of white our with wheat or oat bran.
