HOW TO OPERATE Place the S'MORES MAKER on a flat, stable surface near an electrical outlet before starting. Always make sure that the cord is away from any water source. Plug the appliance into an electrical socket. The Power Light will come on. Keep about a foot of space around the unit to make sure that there is proper ventilation. Slide Skewer Handles onto two Bamboo Skewers. Place up to four marshmallows each on the two Bamboo Skewers and insert skewers into the Skewer Holders, making sure that the pointed ends are properly inserted into the Skewer Rotators. Set Timer. It is recommended that you set the Timer all the way to 2 minutes. Bamboo Skewers will continue to rotate while marshmallows roast. When cooking has completed, the Timer will ding. To shorten the cooking time, simply turn the Timer to a shorter setting. If you wish to roast marshmallows for a longer period of time after full 2 minutes has completed, simply set Timer again before removing Bamboo Skewers. Be careful to not burn the marshmallows. To stop cooking before cycle has completed, turn Timer to 0. Remove Bamboo Skewers and use roasted marshmallows to make s'mores. CAUTION: After two to three 2-minute cycles, the Power Light will shut off and Heating Element will stop working. The Skewer Rotators will continue to turn. This is designed to prevent marshmallows from burning, as heat continues to build up in the unit during roasting. If the Heating Element shuts off, allow unit to cool for up to four minutes before continuing use. You may also unplug the appliance and allow unit to cool completely between cooking sessions and when finished. After unit is cool to the touch, remove the Drip Tray and follow directions in Cleaning and Maintenance section to clean unit. Return Drip Tray to the OLD FASHIONED S'MORES MAKER after cleaning and store in a safe place until next use. By following these simple instructions, your OLD FASHIONED S'MORES MAKER will be fun for friends, family and kids of all ages! ENGLISH 6
ENGLISH HELPFUL TIPS MARSHMALLOWS The OLD FASHIONED S'MORES MAKER is designed to use only up to four giant marshmallows per Bamboo Skewer at a time. DO NOT overfill Bamboo Skewers, as marshmallows expand during cooking and they may not rotate properly. Packaged marshmallows tend to become misshapen. For proper rotation, it is best to mold marshmallows back into cylindrical shape before sliding onto Bamboo Skewers for cooking. If marshmallows begin to drip or drag on Drip Tray, turn machine off and allow to cool, then move marshmallows on Bamboo Skewers to ensure proper rotation. Remove any dripping marshmallows to make sure that they do not burn. BURNING/SMOKING If the machine is burning or smoking during cooking, turn Timer to 0 to end the cooking cycle. After machine has cooled completely, remove the marshmallows. Smoking may also be caused by marshmallow drippings stuck to the Drip Tray. To prevent smoking, make sure to clean the Drip Tray after each use. CLEANING & MAINTENANCE Make sure the unit is unplugged before cleaning. Allow all parts to COOL to the touch, especially the Drip Tray. To prolong the life of your OLD FASHIONED S'MORES MAKER, please follow these simple instructions for maintenance. Never place the appliance in a dishwasher. Lift the OLD FASHIONED S'MORES MAKER by the Base only. Once appliance has cooled, remove the Drip Tray from the Base. Clean outer surface of the OLD FASHIONED S'MORES MAKER with a soft, damp cloth and only when it is unplugged and completely cooled. DO NOT drip water into the top of the unit, as this is where the heating element is located. Use warm, soapy water to clean the Drip Tray. Rinse and dry. Wrap cord and store OLD FASHIONED S'MORES MAKER. Make sure the appliance has completely cooled and is dry before storing. DO NOT put more than four marshmallows on the Bamboo Skewers at a time, as marshmallows swell when cooking. Never use the OLD FASHIONED S'MORES MAKER without the Drip Tray in place. Always make sure that Drip Tray is cleaned in between uses if marshmallow drips onto it to prevent burning. 7
