HOW TO USE YOUR PIE MAKER

PREPARE PASTRY

Roll out your pastry, then use the pie base and cover cutter to prepare your pie base and cover.

Alternatively, you can use any commercial pastry that you can purchase in the supermarket such as: short crust and puff pastry. It is recommended that you use puff pastry for the top and short-crust pastry for the base of the pie.

1. Before using the appliance, clean the baking surfaces with a damp cloth. Dry it with paper towel.

2. Close the appliance and plug it into a mains power outlet socket. Both red power indicator and
   green working indicator will light up, indicating that the pie maker is connected to the mains
   power and begins preheating. The red power indicator will remain ON until you unplug the
   appliance from mains power.

3. It will take approximately 4 minutes to reach the recommended baking temperature. The green working indicator will go OFF when the pie maker is ready for use.

4. Open the appliance and brush the baking plates with a small amount of vegetable oil.

5. Put the pastry base into the bottom baking plate. Fill the ingredients then place the pastry cover and press the edges of the pastries together.
   NOTE: Your pie filling should be cooked in advance, particularly if using fresh meat or vegetable ingredients.
   WARNING! Do not use the pie cutter or pastry mold in the product when it is switched ON. This may damage the accessories.

6. Close the appliance to begin cooking your pies.
   NOTE : Gently close the lid and ensure to lock the appliance with the locking clip until it ‘clicks’ in place. Do not slam the lid down, as it may cause the mixture to come off the mold.

7. The green working indicator will light up again when another baking cycle starts. The actual baking time varies depending on the type of batter and ingredients you use. A general guideline is around 5-8 minutes of baking time.

8. If you prefer a darker pie, close the appliance again and continue baking until desired baking colour is achieved.
   IMPORTANT! Do not open the appliance during the first 2 minutes after filling in the batter. It will cause splitting of the under-baked pie and make it difficult to remove.

9. To remove the pie, always use a plastic or wooden spatula. Never use a sharp or metal object, as this will damage the non-stick coating or the baking plate.

10. After using the pie maker, disconnect the power plug from the mains power socket.

CAUTION:

1. Depending on different ingredients, it takes approx.5-8 minutes to make pies.
2. The first heating process should take place without any food, let it heat for about 5 minutes. There may be a small amount of smoke and odour from the unit when heating up. This is normal and harmless. This should disappear after few minutes of use.
3. The red power light will be ON when the pie maker is connected mains power, and the green ready light will cycle ON and OFF to maintain the cooking temperature.
4. Never use a sharp fork or knife to remove the pies as this would damage the non-stick coating on the baking surface. Use heat-resistant wood or plastic utensils only.
5. Always unplug the appliance from the mains power outlet socket when not in use.
