HELPFUL HINTS
•As soon as the appliance is ready, the Green Ready
Light will turn on.
•Hot dogs come in various sizes.
•Cut hot dogs to correct size to t into the Corn Dog
maker.
•Corn dogs can be made with or without the included
corn dog sticks.Always preheat before use.
•Plug cord into a 120-volt AC power outlet while prepar-
ing the lling. Once the control light illuminates the baking
surface is ready for use.
•During rst use, there may be a slight odor once the
unit has warmed up. That is caused by the normal break-
ing in period and is nothing to be concerned about.
• Should the top of the corn dogs be light in color and
not brown, try adding a little more batter to each cavity.
•If the bottom of the corn dogs are too light, try using
a little less batter and/or preheating the corn dog maker
longer.
•Use smooth-edged plastic utensils. DO NOT use
sharp-edged cooking tools such as knives, forks,
spoons etc. as the scratching will affect the non-stick
performance.

THIS APPLIANCE IS NOT TO BE
OPERATED IN THE OPEN POSITION

depending on personal preference). Do not open the Corn

using a wooden spoon or plastic spatula. Do not use a
sharp or metal object, as it could damage the non-stick
