Cuisinart GR-WAFP Waffle Iron User Manual


 
7. Bake for approximately 3 minutes. For lighter
waffles, bake for less time. For darker waffles,
bake for more time. Medium-brown waffles,
can be achieved by baking in between 3½ and
5 minutes. These are approximate times that
may vary depending on the recipe ingredients
used.
Note: During operation, the green indicator
light inside the Griddle dial will continue to
turn on and off as the thermostat regulates the
temperature. This is normal. The red indicator
light inside the Selector dial will stay illuminated
during operation.
8. Remove the waffles by gently loosening the
edges with a heat-proof spatula or tongs. Never
use metal utensils, as they will damage the
nonstick coating.
9. When you are finished baking, turn the Selector
dial to the OFF position and unplug the power
cord from the wall outlet. Allow the Griddler
®
or
Griddler Gourmet
®
to cool down for at least 30
minutes before handling.
CLEANING AND CARE
Once you have finished baking, turn the Selector
dial to the OFF position and unplug the power cord
from the wall outlet. Leave the top cover of your
Griddler
®
or Griddler Gourmet
®
open so the waffle
plates begin to cool. Allow the unit to cool down for
at least 30 minutes before handling.
Press the plate release
buttons to remove waffle
plates from the housing.
The waffle plates can be
washed in the dishwasher.
Do not use metallic objects
such as knives or forks
for cleaning. Do not use
a scouring pad for cleaning – the nonstick coating
can be damaged.
The Griddler
®
or Griddler Gourmet
®
exterior
surfaces can be wiped clean with a soft, dry cloth.
For tough stains, dampen cloth. Never use an
abrasive cleaner or harsh pad.
STORAGE
The waffle plates can be stored in the Griddler
®
or
Griddler Gourmet
®
or in a drawer or cabinet when
not in use.
WARRANTY
Limited One-Year Warranty
This warranty is available to consumers only. You are a consumer
if you own Cuisinart
®
Griddler
®
Waffle Plates that were purchased
at retail for personal, family or household use. Except as otherwise
required under applicable law, this warranty is not available to retailers
or other commercial purchasers or owners. We warrant that your
Cuisinart
®
Griddler
®
Waffle Plates will be free of defects in materials and
workmanship under normal home use for 1 year from the date of original
purchase.
We recommend that you visit our website, www.cuisinart.com for a fast,
efficient way to complete your product registration. However, product
registration does not eliminate the need for the consumer to maintain the
original proof of purchase in order to obtain the warranty benefits. In the
event that you do not have proof of purchase date, the purchase date for
purposes of this warranty will be the date of manufacture.
CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS ONLY
California law provides that for In-Warranty Service, California residents
have the option of returning a nonconforming product (A) to the store
where it was purchased or (B) to another retail store that sells Cuisinart
products of the same type. The retail store shall then, according to its
preference, either repair the product, refer the consumer to an independent
repair facility, replace the product, or refund the purchase price less the
amount directly attributable to the consumer’s prior usage of the product.
If neither of the above two options results in the appropriate relief to the
consumer, the consumer may then take the product to an independent
repair facility, if service or repair can be economically accomplished.
Cuisinart and not the consumer will be responsible for the reasonable
cost of such service, repair, replacement, or refund of nonconforming
products under warranty. California residents may also, according to their
preference, return nonconforming products directly to Cuisinart for repair
or, if necessary, replacement by calling our Consumer Service Center toll-
free at 1-800-726-0190. Cuisinart will be responsible for the cost of the
repair, replacement, and shipping and handling of such nonconforming
products under warranty.

Your Cuisinart
®
Griddler
®
Waffle Plates have been manufactured to the
strictest specifications and have been designed for use only with Griddler
®
and Griddler Gourmet
®
models. This warranty expressly excludes any
defects or damages caused by accessories, replacement parts or repair
service other than those authorized by Cuisinart. This warranty does
not cover any damage caused by accident, misuse, shipment or other
than ordinary household use. This warranty excludes all incidental or
consequential damages. Some states do not allow the exclusion or
limitation of these damages, so these exclusions may not apply to you.
You may also have other rights, which vary from state to state.
Important: If the nonconforming product is to be serviced by someone
other than Cuisinart’s Authorized Service Center, please remind the
servicer to call our Consumer Service Center at 1-800-726-0190 to ensure
that the problem is properly diagnosed, the product is serviced with the
correct parts, and to ensure that the product is still under warranty.
