HOW TO USE

1. Before first use, wipe down all surfaces with a damp cloth and dry.
2. Find a dry, suitable, level surface near an electrical outlet.

3. The Nonstick Cooking Surface should be lightly coated with a small amount of vegetable oil. Vegetable oil can be applied with a paper towel or with a nonstick oil spray. The oil will help protect the nonstick quality of the cooking surface. *This should be done periodically to maintain the nonstick quality.

4. Preheat the appliance by closing the Lid and plugging into an electrical outlet.

5. When the power is on, the Red Power Light will come on. The Green Ready Light will stay off while the appliance is preheating.

6. The appliance should preheat for a minimum of 3 minutes. The Green Ready Light will turn on when the appliance is ready to cook.

7. While the appliance is preheating, you may prepare the ingredients for your Mini Donuts.

8. Raise the Lid using an oven mitt or potholder to prevent accidental burns.

9. Fill each of the seven pastry wells in the Nonstick Cooking Surface with mixture.

10. Close the Lid using a potholder or oven mitt. Make sure Lid is locked.

⚠️ Steam may be released from appliance during cooking. For your safety, avoid contact with steam, as it is very hot and can cause burns.

1. The cooking time will range between 3-5, depending on the type of pastries being cooked and personal taste.

2. Once the Donuts have completed cooking, raise the Lid with a potholder or oven mitt. Remove the pastries from the Nonstick Cooking Surface with a plastic or wooden spoon. DO NOT use metal utensils, as they may scratch and damage the Nonstick Cooking Surface.

3. If cooking more than one batch of Donuts in a session, after removal of the first batch, lower the Lid to maintain heat until ready to cook the next batch.

4. As soon as you are finished cooking, unplug appliance and allow to cool.
5. Once the appliance is cool, following directions in Cleaning and Maintenance section to clean your Mini Donut Maker.

HELPFUL TIPS

NEVER leave the unit unattended while operating.

ATTENTION: During first use, you may notice slight smoking or a slight odor; this is normal with most new appliances. The smoking and odor is caused by the residues burning off the Nonstick Cooking Surface and the Heating Element. Allow the appliance to preheat until smoke and odor no longer exists.
