USING THE MINI DONUT MAKER

During first use of the appliance, smoke and/or a slight odour may occur from the appliance because of the initial warming process of the materials. This is normal and will quickly disappear It will not recur after appliance has been used a few more times.

Use protective oven mitts or gloves to avoid burns or serious personal injury.

1.  Place the appliance on a stable, flat, heat-resistant surface.

2.  For optimal results, lightly coat the plates with oil or butter.

3.  Plug the power cord into a standard 120-volt AC electrical outlet. The red power light will illuminate while preheating. Keep the lid closed while preheating.

4.  When the appliance has reached baking temperature, the light will extinguish. Add batter to the molds until full.
   NOTE: For easier pouring, use a pastry bag or cut the corner off a sturdy plastic bag to squeeze the batter into the mold. Do not overfill as the batter will seep out over the edge.

5.  Close the lid to bake. Steam will escape during the baking process; use caution to avoid burning hands.
   NOTE: DO NOT lock the cover during the cooking process. Do not overfill as the batter will seep out over the edge.
