This is a
Listed appliance. The following important safeguards are recommended by most portable appliance manufacturers.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
To reduce the risk of personal injury or property damage when using electrical appliances
, basic safety precautions should always be
followed, including the following:
1. Read all instructions before using the wafe maker.
2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
3. To protect against the risk of electrical shock, never put the cord, plug, or unit in water or other liquids.
4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
5. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning
the appliance.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or in the event the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in
any manner. Return the appliance to the Presto Factory Service Department for examination, repair, or electrical or mechanical
adjustment.
7. The use of accessory attachments not recommended or sold by the appliance manufacturer may cause injuries. Use only genuine
Presto
®
accessories and replacement parts.
8. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter or touch hot surfaces.
9. Do not use outdoors.
10. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated oven.
11. It is recommended that this appliance not be moved when it contains hot oil or other hot liquid.
12. Do not use this appliance for other than intended use.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
THIS APPLIANCE IS FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.
Important Cord Information
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to
t into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not t fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not t, contact a
qualied electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Extension cords may
be used if care is properly exercised in their 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. The 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.
Connect the power supply cord to a 120VAC
electrical outlet only.
Getting Acquainted
Before using for the rst time, become familiar with
the wafe maker features (Fig. A). Wash the wafe
tongs and wipe the wafe grids with a damp cloth
before initial use.
How to Use
1. Gather the ingredients for the batter and lling.
Do any prep work required for the lling, such
as thawing, cooking, or slicing of foods. (See
pages 3 through 6 for helpful hints, recipes, and
batter/lling options.)
2. Place the wafe maker on the countertop in the
open position. Then squeeze the wafe tongs
handle and t the wafe tongs in the unit; the
circular portion ts on the ledge surrounding the
grids and the handle sets on the handle rest
(Fig. A). Always preheat the wafe maker with
the wafe tongs in the unit (Fig. B).
3. Close the unit and keep it in the horizontal position for preheating
(Fig. D, page 3). Plug the cord into a 120VAC electrical outlet and
preheat for 10 minutes. (The power light will be on whenever the
unit is plugged in.)
NOTE: When using the wafe maker for the rst time, a slight odor
or smoking may occur as internal manufacturing residue burns off.
This is normal during initial use.
4. While the unit is heating, prepare the wafe batter.
NOTE: Because the grids are covered with a nonstick nish, there
should never be a need to apply vegetable oil, except in the rare
instances described in the Helpful Hints section. Never use no-stick
cooking sprays.
5. Open the wafe maker. Pour batter into the wafe maker so that the
bottom grids and wafe divider are thinly, but completely covered. This is about ⅓ cup
of batter.
6. Add the desired lling:
• Fill to the point that is halfway between the bottom and top of the square projections
(Fig. C). It is important to leave enough room so you can fully cover the lling with
the layer of batter described in step 7.
• Leave a thin margin between the lling and the inside edge of the tongs (Fig. C).

Top layer ll line
• When a sauce is part of the lling, layer the sauce between the other ingredients, such as the cheese or meat, instead of putting it
directly on the batter.
• Fruits/vegetables should be room temperature if using for lling. If fruits/vegetables have been frozen and thawed, drain them
before use. If using canned fruits/vegetables, drain before use.
IMPORTANT: Fillings such as meats, chicken, and eggs should be cooked and frozen foods thawed before using them to make
wafes. The baking time is not long enough nor is the temperature hot enough to adequately cook food or heat frozen food used
for lling.
7. Pour additional batter over the lling until it is to the top of the square projections on the wafe tongs (Fig. C) and covers the
lling.
8. Close the wafe maker (Fig. D). Immediately grasp the handles and ip the unit over 180° (Fig. E and Fig. F). This allows
the batter to ow into the wafe grids to make a fully formed wafe.
9. Set a timer (see wafe recipes
and stufng ideas on pages 4
through 6 for cooking times).
Most wafe batters will take 7 to
8 minutes. Cake mixes and cake
batter made from scratch will take
approximately 7½ minutes to cook.
NOTE: When cooking wafe
batters that contain several eggs,
you may notice the handles separate
as the batter cooks. This is normal.
CAUTION! It is normal for steam to escape from the handle vent during cooking. To prevent steam burns, keep well away from
the vent.
10. When set time has expired, open the wafe maker. Grasping the red handle grips, squeeze the
tongs and lift the wafe out of the unit. Release the wafe onto a serving plate (Fig. G). The
outer band of the wafe has its own distinctive pattern and is lighter in appearance than the rest
of the wafe. This is normal.
CAUTION! To avoid burns, do not touch the metal parts on the wafe tongs.
11. Place the tongs back in the unit and heat in the closed position while preparing for the next
wafe. Repeat steps 5 through 10.
12. Unplug the wafe maker when cooking is complete. Clean as instructed on page 7.
Helpful Hints
♦ There are many choices for wafe batter. You can use one of the batter recipes found on pages 5 and 6 or one of your own recipes.
If preferred, packaged pancake and wafe mixes, all-purpose baking mixes, cake mixes, and mufn mixes can be used. One batch
of batter from a packaged mix will make about three stuffed wafes.
♦ For batters that are thick and do not pour easily, place spoonfuls of batter onto the wafe grid. Then use a heat-resistant spatula to
spread the batter out evenly to the edge of the grid.
♦ Traditional wafes without lling can be baked, if desired. Each wafe will require about 1¼ cups of batter and baking time will be
7½ to 8 minutes.
♦ Keep wafes warm and crisp until serving by placing them in a single layer directly on a rack in a 200°F oven.
♦ For most batters, oiling is unnecessary and may actually reduce the wafe maker’s nonstick qualities. However, when using a
made-from-scratch batter that has no added fat (e.g. substitutes applesauce for oil) or contains minimal oil (less than 1 tablespoon),
apply a light coating of vegetable oil to the wafe grids before cooking the rst wafe. That will prevent sticking. For additional
wafes, apply only as needed. Never use no-stick cooking sprays. They leave a tacky residue and will give the waffle a mottled
appearance rather than an even brown appearance.

Questions and Answers
1. I put too much lling in my wafe and it oozed out of the wafe. Some of the lling is now baked onto the grids. How do I clean
the grids?
Please refer to #3 in the Care, Cleaning, and Storage section on page 7. Next time reduce the amount of lling.
2. The tongs don’t lift the baked wafe out of the wafe maker. Why?
The wafe is too heavy with lling. It will be necessary to reduce the amount of lling for the next wafe. Generally, ½ cup of
lling can be used.
3. When I lift the tongs with the baked wafe, the wafe separates and only the top half of the wafe comes out. What I am doing
wrong?
The wafe may have too much lling or has not been baked long enough. Bake the wafe for another 30 seconds to 1 minute to
allow the wafe to cook through.
6
4. Can I use puréed fruit like applesauce in place of oil in the batter recipes?
Yes, wafes can be made successfully using puréed fruit as a substitute for oil. Because there is no oil in the recipe, it is suggested
that the wafe grids be brushed lightly with vegetable oil to prevent sticking.
5. Where can I nd more recipes?
Please scan the QR code found on page 5 periodically for more recipes and lling suggestions.
6. Can I use gluten free or keto wafe batter in the stuffed wafe maker?
Yes, gluten free our and nut ours can be used to make batters to use in the wafe maker.
Care, Cleaning, and Storage
1. Unplug the wafe maker and allow to cool completely before cleaning.
2. To clean the wafe maker, brush any loose crumbs from the wafe grids. Then wipe the grids with a paper towel or cloth. Clean
the outside of the wafe maker with a damp cloth.
Should any batter become baked onto the grids or the outside of the unit, apply a small amount of vegetable oil to the baked-on
batter. Allow it to sit for a few minutes to soften and wipe off with a paper towel or cloth. Do not use steel wool scouring pads or
abrasive kitchen cleaners on the unit. Never immerse the wafe maker base in water or other liquid.
3. If lling oozes out of the stuffed wafe during baking, it may be necessary to perform a more thorough cleaning of the wafe
grids. Unplug the wafe maker and add 1 tablespoon of water to the bottom grid. Close the unit and without ipping, allow it to
cool to a comfortable temperature. Then, using the dampness remaining on the grids, wipe away the residue.
4. Wash the wafe tongs in hot, soapy water, and rinse thoroughly. Do not wash the tongs or wafe
maker in the dishwasher.
5. Place the wafe tongs in the wafe maker and close the unit.
6. Push the cord into the cord storage port and secure the plug end in the clip (Fig. H).
7. For compact storage, grasp the wafe maker handles and rotate the wafe maker to the vertical
position. While holding the handles together, rotate the red locking lever until it secures the unit
in the upright position (Fig. I and Fig. J).
Before the next use, remember to unlock from the storage position (Fig. J). Hold the handles
together and rotate the red locking lever towards the cord storage (Fig. I).
