Steam may escape from the sides of your mini cupcake maker during use – make sure it's not placed where this could cause a hazard.

Don't trap the mains cord of your mini cupcake maker in between the cooking plates.

Don't leave your mini cupcake maker unattended whilst in use.

Always make sure there is sufficient ventilation around your mini cupcake maker when it's in use.

Don't use your mini cupcake maker outdoors.

Don't use any unauthorised attachments with your mini cupcake maker as this could be hazardous and cause damage to your appliance.

Don't cover your mini cupcake maker when it's in use or still hot.

Never use sharp or abrasive utensils on the cooking plates of your mini cupcake maker as this could damage the non-stick surface.

Make sure you unplug the mini cupcake maker when you've finished using it and before you clean it.

Don't put your mini cupcake maker in water or any other liquids.

Don't use the mini cupcake maker with a broken plug or cord, after any glitches or if it's been dropped or damaged.

DESCRIPTION OF PARTS

It's PARTY TIME!

Before using your mini cupcake maker you should clean the upper and lower cooking plates with a soft, damp, lint free cloth.

Slightly grease the cooking plates with a little butter or oil and heat your mini cupcake maker with the lid open for 5 minutes.

Switch off your mini cupcake maker and allow to cool. Wipe away any excess butter or oil and your cupcake maker is now ready for use.

MAKING YUMMY CUPCAKES

Open the lid of your mini cupcake maker and carefully place your mini cupcake cases into the shapes on the lower cooking plate.

Now add your prepared mixture to the cases and close the lid.

Plug your mini cupcake maker into the mains power supply; the red indicator light will illuminate to show it's heating up.

The green indicator light will turn on and off during cooking as your mini cupcake maker maintains the correct temperature.

Open your cupcake maker after the required cooking time of about 20 minutes and check that your yummy cupcakes are cooked. If they require further cooking, simply shut the lid again (make sure you keep an eye on them so they don't burn!).

When your mini cupcakes are cooked, take them out of your cupcake maker with wooden or plastic utensils. Don't use metal or sharp utensils as these may damage the non-stick coating of the plates.

KEEPING YOUR MINI CUPCAKE MAKER IN GOOD WORKING ORDER

Once you've cooked your yummy cupcakes, unplug the cupcake maker from the power supply and allow to cool before cleaning.

Don't immerse your mini cupcake maker in water or any other liquids (ever), just wipe it clean with a soft, damp, lint free cloth.
