Once cooking is complete, set temperature control knob to the “OFF” position and  
unplug probe from the electrical outlet.  
CAUTION: Allow the skillet to thoroughly cool before handling.  
NOTE: Due to the technical design of the temperature control  
slight variations in temperature are possible.  
COOKING TIPS  
Food may be prepared with butter, shortening or oil.  
When frying, using a small amount of oil will improve the flavor, color and/or  
crispness of meat, fish, poultry and eggs.  
During cooking, heat may be increased or decreased depending on the type or  
amount of food as prepared. Personal preference also should be considered.  
The pilot lamp will blink to indicate proper temperature is being maintained.  
CAUTION: Always use protective oven mitts when holding the lid or skillet to avoid  
steam burns.  
At the end of the cooking period set the temperature control knob to WARM for  
serving or to OFF if food will be removed immediately from skillet. Once  
Temperature Control Knob is set to OFF, unplug cord from wall outlet.

group. One half-inch slice of bread is approximately two servings.  
MAINTENANCE

Always be sure that the appliance is switched OFF before cleaning or attempting to store  
the item.

Cleaning:  
-
Use a damp dishcloth or sponge with soapy water to clean the outside and base  
of skillet.  
-
Use a non-metal cleaning pad or sponge with hot soapy water to clean the non-  
stick interior surface of the skillet.  
Do not use abrasive powders, hard abrasive scourer or wire wool.  
Retighten loose screws:  
To reduce the risk of burn injury or property damage, check if handles, knobs or legs  
of skillet are loose after every use. Retighten loose screws with appropriate tool, do  
not over tighten as which may result in cracking or stripping of handle, knob & leg.  
Removing a mineral film  
See under “Hints For Care And Use Of Non-Stick Surface”, Page 7.  
Special cleaning note:  
ƒ
After consistent or long time use, the non-stick surface may slightly discolor. This is  
normal if tiny stains occur, which will not affect the performance of the skillet. Dark  
and widespread staining may also occur if improperly cleaned or overheated.  
Never use household bleach to clean for it will permanently fade the non-stick finish.  
ƒ
HINTS FOR CARE AND USE OF NON-STICK SURFACE  
1. To avoid scratching the non-stick surface, do not stack objects on surface.  
2. Use medium to low heat for best cooking results. Very high temperatures can cause  
discoloration and shorten the life span of any non-stick surface. If higher  
temperatures are necessary, preheat on medium for a few minutes.  
3. Use only nylon plastic or wooden utensils with care to avoid scratching the non-stick  
surface. Never cut food on the griddle.  
4. Remove stubborn stains with a plastic scouring pad and mild dish washing liquid.  
5. Removing a Mineral film. A spotted white film may form on the non-stick surface.  
This is a buildup of minerals from water and is not a defect is the finish. To remove,  
soak a soft cloth in lemon juice or vinegar and rub onto the finish. After cleaning  
wash, rinse and dry.  
STORING  
Allow the appliance to cool completely before storing. Store the appliance in a dry  
location. Do not place any heavy items on top of appliance during storage as this may  
result in possible damage of appliance.  
Store the cord in a clean, dry location away from metal objects. Always check the plug  
before use to assure metal items have not become attached.
