OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Read all the sections of this booklet and follow all the instructions carefully.
Using Your Electric Skillet
Using for the First Time
Before using the skillet for the first time,
wash, rinse and dry the skillet and the
glass lid in warm, soapy water. Dry
completely.
CAUTION: NEVER immerse the
thermostat control probe and plug in
water or any other liquid.
Note: Prior to first use, if desired, apply
a thin coat of cooking oil onto the
non-stick coating on the inside of
the skillet. Remove any excess oil
with a cloth or paper towel.
This unit should not be used to boil
water.
1. Place the skillet on a flat, dry, heat
resistant surface.
2. Insert the thermostat control probe into
the thermostat control prove receptacle.
3. Plug the 3-prong plug into the electrical
outlet and set the temperature control
knob to the desired temperature.
Always plug the cord into the skillet
first, then into the electrical wall
outlet.
4. The temperature ready light will come
on when you set or adjust the
temperature. Once the desired
temperature is reached, the
temperature ready light will go out.
During cooking, the temperature ready
light will go on and off indicating that the
surface temperature is being
maintained.
Important : The temperature control is a
sensitive device; use care not to drop,
hit or impact the temperature control
against hard surfaces, as it could affect
the temperature calibration. Do not use
the temperature control if it overheats or
is damaged in any other way.
5. Use only wood or heat-proof plastic
cooking utensils. Metal utensils will
scratch the non-stick surface of the
electric skillet. Never cut food with a
knife on the non-stick surface.

6. Preheat the skillet until the temperature
ready light goes out.
7. Place food in the skillet and cook
according to the recipe directions.
8. If you are using the glass lid during
cooking, be careful when you remove
the lid to check on the food that you are
cooking. Always lift the glass lid away
from you to prevent burns from the
steam. There is a steam vent located
on the glass lid to help the steam
escape. Always use an oven mitt or hot
pads when removing the glass lid.
9. When you have finished cooking, turn
the temperature control knob to the
lowest position. Unplug the power cord
from the electrical wall outlet. Let the
skillet cool completely before removing
the thermostat control from the
appliance.
CAUTION: The thermostat control probe
may be hot!
Skillet is hot! Use hot pads or oven
mitts when moving the electric skillet or
removing the glass lid.
IMPORTANT: Check the non-skid feet
periodically for looseness. If needed, re-
tighten with a screw driver. Be careful
NOT to over tighten as this can result in
stripping the screws or cracking the
non-skid feet.
Hints
• Use only nylon, heat-proof plastic or
wooden utensils. Metal utensils may
scratch the non-stick surface.
• This skillet is not designed for deep
frying. To pan-fry, do not use more
than 1 cup of oil. Use only a
vegetable or peanut oil for frying.
Butter and olive oil should only be
used to sauté foods on a lower
temperature setting.
• When preparing foods not listed in
the suggested temperature guide,
start with a low temperature setting
and work up to the desired cooking
temperature.
• If cooking surface has been
conditioned, there is no need for
additional cooking oils or fats when
cooking. A small amount of butter or
oil will however add flavor and aid in
even browning.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. After the skillet has cooled, remove the
temperature control. (Make sure that
the power cord has been removed from
the electrical wall outlet first.) Do NOT
immerse the temperature control and
the 3-prong plug into water or any other
liquid.
2. Wash the glass lid in hot soapy water,
rinse thoroughly and dry.
3. Wash the electric skillet in hot soapy
water, rinse thoroughly and then dry.
Cleaning Instructions CAUTION: Be sure that the interior of the
thermostat control probe receptacle
and the contact pins are completely dry
prior to use.
Note: To remove stubborn stains from the
electric skillet or the glass lid, use a
non-abrasive cleaner. NEVER use a
metal scouring pad or harsh abrasive
cleanser.
4. In time, the non-stick surface on the
pan may discolor. This is normal and
will not alter its non-stick properties.
Note: Both the glass lid and skillet are
dishwasher safe.
