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 E TENSION 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.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
POLARIZED PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider
than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock,
this plug will fit into a polarized outlet only one way.
If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the
plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician.
Do not attempt to 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.
16. Oven mitts are required when removing a hot LID or S ILLET PAN or to
remove cooked food from the S ILLET PAN.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS (CONT.)
CAUTION: Some countertops are more sensitive to heat, use care not to place
skillet or S ILLET 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.
All manuals and user guides at all-guides.com

Before use, wash the S ILLET PAN and LID in warm soapy water or in the
dishwasher and dry completely.
CAUTION: Do not immerse HEATING BASE in water or other liquids.
1. Set the skillet on a flat, dry, heat resistant surface.
2. Make sure that the S ILLET PAN is sitting securely on the HEATING BASE.
If the S ILLET PAN is not secure on the HEATING BASE, the product may not
function properly.
3. Turn TEMPERATURE CONTROL DIAL to “OFF”. Plug skillet into standard 120V
AC outlet and turn TEMPERATURE CONTROL DIAL to desired setting, by align-
ing the temperature with the POWER INDICATOR LIGHT. The POWER
INDICATOR LIGHT will come on and remain on while the TEMPERATURE
CONTROL DIAL is on the WARM or higher settings. Warm Setting: WARM
is recommended for keeping already hot, fully cooked food at the perfect
serving temperature. We do not recommend using the WARM setting for
more than 4 hours.
