HOW TO OPERATE

1. First, nd a stable surface near an electrical outlet before starting. Make sure the cord

is away from any water source. It is acceptable to use an extension cord if needed.

2. Plug in unit at the OFF position.

3. Turn unit to ON position and allow it to run for at least 5 minutes before

adding hard candy. If using sugar, allow appliance to run for at least 10

minutes before adding sugar. This will allow the Extractor Head to heat.

4. Turn unit OFF and place no more than two pieces of hard candy or one scoop of avored

sugar (1 tbsp.) into the Extractor Head. If using candies, make sure they are evenly placed on

either side of the Extractor Head (see image below).

5. Switch to ON position.

6. When you see the cotton candy web begin, collect the cotton candy on the cone by

holding the cone vertically. Rotate the cone with your ngers while you circle the bowl.

7. Once cotton candy has collected on the cone, hold the cone in a horizontal position

over the Extractor Head while still rotating the cone with your ngers. Continue

turning the cone with your ngers while the cone is in the horizontal position

and move from side to side making sure to collect all the cotton candy.

8. Repeat above steps by adding another measure of candy or sugar

into the Extractor Head and starting again. The cotton candy

should ow more quickly as the unit is suciently warm.

9. DO NOT overll the Extractor Head by adding more than two candies or 1 tbsp.

of sugar at a time. This will cause clogging and unit will not work properly.

10. By following these simple instructions, using your HARD & SUGAR-FREE

CANDY COTTON CANDY MAKER will be a fun experience for kids of all

ages and will bring the excitement of a carnival to any occasion.

ENGLISH
