GROUNDED PLUG
To reduce the risk of electric shock this appliance has a grounded plug.
(2 blades and 1 pin) If the plug does not fit fully into the electrical
outlet contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify the plug in any
way or use an adaptor.
HOW TO USE YOUR PORTABLE COOKING RANGE
Any flat-bottomed pot or container that can be used on a conventional
electric stove element can also be used on the Salton Portable Cooking
Range. For maximum heat transfer, cookware that has a solid perfectly
flat bottom is recommended. Cookware made from solid
aluminum or some other material with an encapsulated aluminum
base will provide the best results. Any cookware can be used to reheat
but if maximum energy is required, such as boiling water, please use
the recommended cookware.
1. Place the Portable Cooking Range onto a smooth, dry, flat surface.
Be sure that the knobs are in the '0' position and plug into any
120 Volt A.C. outlet. Once the unit is plugged into the wall outlet
the red indicator light will glow until it is unplugged.
2. Place filled cookware on element.
3. Turn Control Knob clockwise to desired setting. The green
Indicator Light will glow and go ‘on’ and ‘off’ as the selected
temperature is automatically maintained.
IMPORTANT:
• DO NOT preheat before using.
• DO NOT switch on before cookware is placed on the element.
CARE AND CLEANING
1. Unplug unit and allow to cool.
2. The unit should be cleaned with a cloth or sponge dampened in
warm soapy water.
3. NEVER USE ABRASIVE CLEANSERS.
4. NEVER IMMERSE THIS UNIT IN WATER.

A short supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards of becoming
entangled in or tripping over a long cord. Extension cords may be used
if care is exercised in their use. If an extension cord is used, the marked
electrical rating of the detachable power-supply cord or extension cord
should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. If
the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a
grounded 3-wire cord. The extension cord should be arranged so that
it will not drape over the counter top or table top, where it can be pulled
on by children or tripped over.
This warranty does not include the cost of shipping, which is to be borne by the
customer.
