Cleaning & Maintenance
• Remove the plug from the wall socket and let the Donut Maker cool
completely prior to moving or cleaning.
• Once cool, thoroughly clean the appliance after every use.
• The Mini Donut Maker is NOT dishwasher safe and should never be
submerged in water; it must be handwashed.
• Do not clean the cooking surfaces with metal kitchen utensils or abrasive
cleaning materials as they may damage the nonstick coating.
• To clean, wipe the outside of the Donut Maker with a moist, soft cloth.
• To clean the cooking surfaces, use hot water, dish soap, and a non-abrasive
sponge or cloth.
• If there is any remaining batter residue on the cooking surfaces, use a soft
cleaning brush.
• Enure that the appliance is unplugged and all parts are clean and
dry before storing.
