1. Place the doughnut maker on a flat level, heat and splash- resistant surface and
fully unwind the power cord.
2. Close the top baking plate onto the bottom baking plate and plug the appliance
in. The indicator light D shows that the appliance is heating up.
3. The indicator light E will light as soon as the required temperature is reached.
The appliance is ready for baking.
4. Place a finger onto the handle and unlock the clip. When the indicator light goes
out, slowly fold up the lid to prevent it springing back.
5. Quickly fill about a flat teaspoon of batter in each of the small doughnut cavities.
6. Overfilling may also prevent the doughnuts from cooking all the way through.
7. Close the lid again. You must be able to hear the handle lock, clip into place.
8. The indicator light comes back on again after a short time. It shows the appliance
is heating up.
Caution: Only use a heat-resistant wood or plastic cutlery to remove the
doughnuts to avoid damaging the non-stick coating of the baking plates.
9. When the indicator light goes out, slowly fold up the lid to check the degree of
baking. If your doughnuts are not brown enough, give them a minute or two
longer.
10. Loosen them at the sides with a non-scratch utensil and then remove them using
an egg lifter.
11. Immediately refill the baking cavities with batter.
12. If the doughnuts turn out too light or too dark, increase or reduce the baking time
for the next batch.
13. The ideal baking time is about 3 to 4½ minutes.
14. After a few batches you will have found the preferred degree of browning.
However, this will always depend on the type and thickness of your batter.
15. To begin with, doughnuts may take longer to bake. Baking time is shortened
once the doughnut maker has been in operation for a while.
16. Unplug the appliance after use and let the appliance cool down with the baking
surfaces open. Place the appliance out of children's reach while it is cooling
down.
