These are the basics of how this mini cupcake maker should operate:
There is a constant flow of energy through the device as long as it is plugged in. There is no way to regulate the temperature or heating process other than plugging in and unplugging the entire device.
When the device is plugged in, the red light on the lid will turn on to indicate it is properly plugged in, and 493W are used to heat up the two heating elements (one in the base and one in the top).
There is an internal temperature regulator that will turn the light off to indicate to the user that the cupcakes are ready. It takes approximately 3 minutes for one batch of cupcakes to be ready.
There are no settings available on this device in order to regulate the heating or level at which the cupcakes are cooked.
