My Wells Commercial Waffle Maker smokes after it is turned on for a while. I have cleaned it thoroughly, but it still produces a lot of smoke.

This is normal, and common to heating appliances. The metal needs to be cured as you would a cast iron fry pan. I brushed it with a little oil and turned it on without filling it. Once it heated up fully, I turned it off, let it cool and wiped it out with a paper towel.

It sounds as if the iron isn't cooking at a high enough temperature. I'd try turning the iron to the highest setting, first (the thermostat may not be giving a correct reading, keeping the temp too low), before considering getting a new iron. The good news, though, is that a new waffle will only set you back about $20

Hope that helps

SOURCE: removing top of waffle maker to clean it

The other night my wife had the same issue. My thought had always been to wipe it down using a wet cloth with simply hot water and rely on the extreme heat of using it to sterilize it.  My wife decided instead to disassemble it.  The problem is that it is not made to disassemble and she bent some parts and broke others and stripped out screw heads.  It is clean now, but can not be reassembled without extracting stripped screws and replacing some parts. My advice to you is - don't try to disassemble it. The factory went to great lengths to ensure that you don't.  Instead use a soft cloth dampened (not dripping wet) with the hottest water you can.

Is the smell a food smell or other smell. If it is food, then some food has gotten behind the blower motor. Clean behind it good. Even some small particles have gotten in there somehow. You can also feel thye sufaces of the oven and tell if there is some buildup.

SOURCE: Turns on but doesn't Cook

It sounds like this is a common poblem but I found what it is. I am a mechanical engineer and fix anything and everything. I had the same thing with my Villeware model 2010. I took it apart and traced with a meter to find the problem. I found the wires to the heating elements in the bottom half melted and shorted where they cross (bad design) just past an inline fuse ( good part of the design!). I can't find any place that carries parts and contacted Villaware direct but do not expect any luck in getting a new wire harness. The fix is either the proper harness or the correct fuse and high temp wire and correct crip connectors. Bypassing the fuse or using incorrect wire would be dangerous, would destroy the control board if another short would occur or possibly lethal from shock or fire.

What does error code E-1 mean on carbons Commercial waffle maker

Error code E-1 on a Carbon's Commercial waffle maker typically indicates a problem with the temperature sensor. The temperature sensor is responsible for monitoring and controlling the temperature of the waffle plates. If the sensor is not working correctly, it can cause the error code to appear and the waffle maker to stop working.
Here are a few steps you can try to troubleshoot the issue:
  1. Check the temperature sensor for any debris or buildup that may be blocking it. Clean the sensor with a soft, dry cloth.
  2. Check the temperature sensor's connector for any damage or debris that may be preventing it from making a proper connection with the waffle maker. Clean the connector with a soft, dry cloth.
  3. Check the wiring harness for any frayed or damaged wires that may be causing the problem.
  4. If the above steps did not resolve the issue, it may be necessary to replace the temperature sensor.

Cleaning your waffle iron WPLT4

c.gif c.gif





Let me start by telling you WHAT NOT TO DO.
  1. Never clean a waffle maker while it's still hot. Let it cool completely.

  2. Never dunk your entire waffle maker in water.

  3. Never use scouring pads, steel wool or abrasive cleansers.

  4. Never use a knife or pointed object to clean your waffle maker(I've actually seen that advised on less reputable sites).

When it comes to cleaning a waffle maker, your first source of information should always be the owner's manual. There are many different kinds of waffle makers, so your buddy Mr Breakfast will gladly defer his expertise to the company that makes your waffle maker.





What I can speak about is my own favorite waffle iron. It's a modern electric waffle iron with non-stick and non-removable baking plates. That's the same kind you have? Oh good. It looks like you came to the right guy.

Cleaning the baking plates:
  1. Remove any small puddles of oil with a dry paper towel.

  2. Brush away any crumbs with a soft-bristled kitchen brush or old toothbrush.

  3. Remove any batter stuck to the iron with a rubber spatula.

  4. To remove really-stuck-on batter, douse the baked-on batter with cooking oil. Wait 5 minutes for the batter to soften. Dab the batter off with a paper towel or cloth.

  5. To prevent staining and long-term oil build up, wipe down the baking plates with a damp cloth or paper towel.

  6. Make sure the waffle iron is completely dry before storing.

To clean the exterior, wipe down the housing and handle with a damp cloth.


Keeping it clean:

There are a couple things to remember to make sure our kind of waffle maker stays clean.

  1. Unless stated otherwise in the manufacturer's instructions, you should never coat the baking plates of a non-stick waffle iron with cooking spray. Over time that will give you a gummy build up that will turn your waffle maker to junk. Today, when a waffle maker makes the claim that it's non-stick, they really mean it. The only oil you need is the oil in the recipe. If your waffles are sticking, it's your batter that needs more oil, not your waffle maker.

  2. Unless stated otherwise in the manufacturer's instructions, don't use soap to clean your baking plates. Soap can be the enemy of a non-stick surface. Oil - on the other hand - can be a great friend. It creates a thin layer that helps maintain the non-stick surface. Soap will completely obliterate that layer of friendly oil. Harsh soaps can deteriorate the manufacturer's non-stick surface over time.

How do you remove the plates for cleaning?

I looked for you model by using Salton WM4 and found nothing. Is there a better model number?

Closest match was Russell Hobbs
RHBW4 and RHBW4CAN

This unit is also made by Salton

I checked several Salton user manuals and none of them had removable plates. They all stated this in the use and care guide:

Cleaning

To keep your Waffle Maker operating properly, clean regularly.

1. Unplug the Waffle Maker and allow it to cool completely before cleaning.

2. Never immerse the waffle maker in water or any other liquid.

3. Wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Dry thoroughly.

4. To remove any remaining batter on the Cooking Plates, wipe with a soft, damp cloth or absorbent paper towel. Dry thoroughly.

5. Do not use steel wool, scouring pads, or abrasive cleaners, as they will damage the finish.

Lost manual and have no idea how temp. should be set

Thoroughly clean with warm soapy water, that is the surfaces where the waffle will sit then thoroughly dry plug it in have your mix remade when it starts heating up pour some batter on as a tester in the center of the lower grill close the lid and watch the steam when the steam starts to slow down your waffle is cooked depending on how done you like them you either take it out as the steam is slowing down or when there is very little steam, there is a lot of trial and error with a waffle maker and after using it a couple of times you will get the hang of it and know precisely or know closer to how long you like it to cook. Good luck and let me know how it works out.
