IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always

be followed, including the following:

READ AND SAVE THESE

INSTRUCTIONS

• Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.

• To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse HEATING BASE and

cord in water or other liquids.

• Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used near children.

This appliance is not to be used by children.

• Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool

before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning the appliance.

• Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the

appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Call Customer

Service (see warranty) to return for examination, repair, or adjustment.

• The use of accessory attachments not recommended by manufacturer

may cause injuries.

• Do not use outdoors.

• Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch heated surfaces.

• Do not place the assembled appliance or SKILLET PAN on or near a hot

gas or electric burner. Do not place the assembled appliance in a heated

oven. However, the SKILLET PAN without the LID can be removed from

the HEATING BASE and placed in the oven.

• Extreme caution must be used when moving appliance containing hot oil

or other hot liquids.

• Do not operate the skillet unless fully assembled. Place SKILLET PAN on

HEATING BASE first, turn TEMPERATURE CONTROL DIAL to “OFF” and

then plug cord into wall outlet.

• Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
• To disconnect, prior to removing skillet pan from heating base, turn the

temperature control dial to “off”, then remove plug from wall outlet.

POLARIZED PLUG

This appliance has a polarized plug, (one blade is wider than the

other). As a safety feature to reduce the risk of electrical shock, this

plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If

the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug.

If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician.

Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature or modify

the plug in any way. If the plug fits loosely into the AC

outlet or if the AC outlet feels warm do not use that outlet.

CAUTION: Some countertops are more sensitive to heat, use care not to

place skillet or SKILLET PAN on surfaces where heat may cause damage.
ELECTRIC POWER: If electric circuit is overloaded with other appliances,

skillet may not operate properly. Skillet must be operated on a separate

circuit from other operating appliances.

• Steam escaping from under the LID or the STEAM VENT is hot. Use caution

when removing the LID.

• Oven mitts are required when removing a hot LID or SKILLET PAN or to

remove cooked food from the SKILLET PAN.

• This appliance is not intended for deep frying foods.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance is for

HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.

No user-serviceable parts inside. Do not attempt to service this product.
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from

entanglement or tripping over a longer cord.

AN EXTENSION CORD MAY

BE USED WITH CARE; HOWEVER, THE MARKED ELECTRICAL RATING

SHOULD BE AT LEAST AS GREAT AS THE ELECTRICAL RATING OF

THE SKILLET.

The extension cord should not be allowed to drape over the counter or

tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or unintentionally tripped over.
