• Do not attempt to repair this appliance yourself.
• For household use only.

CAUTION
To prevent burns or other personal injuries to children, read and follow all instructions and warnings.

PRECAUTIONS FOR USE AROUND CHILDREN

• Always supervise children.
• Do not allow children to operate or be near the electric skillet, as the outside surfaces are hot during use.
• Do not allow cord to hang over any edge where a child can reach it. Arrange cord to avoid pulling, tripping or entanglement.

CAUTION
To prevent electrical shock, personal injury or property damage, read and follow all instructions and warnings.

ELECTRICITY PRECAUTIONS

• To protect against electric shock, do not immerse cord, plugs, or other electric parts in water or other liquids.
• Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug.
• Do not operate when the appliance is not working properly or when it has been damaged in any manner.
• Do not use this appliance outdoors.
• Do not plug cord into wall outlet unless heat control is in OFF position.
• Always turn heat control to OFF and unplug the appliance from outlet before cleaning.
• Your skillet has a short cord as a safety precaution to avoid pulling, tripping or entanglement. Position the cord so that it does not hang over the edge of the counter, table or other area or touch hot surfaces.
• While use of an extension cord is not recommended, if you must use one, make sure the cord has the same or higher wattage as the skillet (wattage is stamped on the underside of the skillet plug receptacle). If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounded-type 3-wire cord. To avoid pulling, tripping or entanglement, position the extension cord so that it does not hang over the edge of the counter, table or other surface area.
• Use an electrical outlet that accommodates the polarized plug on the skillet. On a polarized plug, one blade of the plug is wider than the other. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet or extension cord, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not fit fully, contact a qualified electrician. Do not alter the plug.
• Do not use an outlet or extension cord if the plug fits loosely or if the outlet or extension cord feels hot.
• Keep the cord away from hot parts of the appliance and hot surfaces during operation.

CAUTION
To prevent personal injuries, read and follow all instructions and warnings.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

USING YOUR ELECTRIC SKILLET – FIRST USE

Wash skillet, cover and rack (if included) in hot soapy water, rinse thoroughly and dry, including terminal pins inside socket of skillet where heat control fits.
To ensure stick-free cooking, lightly wipe a teaspoon of cooking oil with paper toweling or a soft cloth over the entire interior surface. Let oil remain on the surface.
The provided cover knob or strap handle must be assembled onto skillet before use.
The screw(s) needed for attachment of knob/strap handle to cover will be packed in a small plastic bag containing all assembly screws and leveling washers OR it will be inserted in bottom of cover knob. Remove these screws. Attach knob/strap handle to cover with the screws as shown. Tighten with screwdriver until secured, but do not overtighten to prevent stripping of threads. Do not use cover without knob/strap handle attached.

The provided handle/legs must be assembled onto skillet before use (unassembled models only).

1. Place skillet upside down on tabletop or countertop.
2. Position first handle/leg on side of skillet with socket, lining up holes in legs with mounting projections on skillet.
3. Using appropriate screwdriver, securely attach handle/leg with two of the long screws provided. Repeat steps 1 and 2 to assemble second handle/leg on opposite side of skillet.
4. To assure proper installation of skillet handle/legs, place assembled skillet right side up on a flat surface and lift with handles. Handles should feel tightly secured.
5. If the skillet rocks when placed on a flat surface, remove screw on the leg, which is not resting on the surface. Install one of the enclosed washers between the skillet mounting projection and leg. Replace the screw following instructions 3 and 4 above. If the skillet is not level after the addition of the washer, add the second leveling washer in the same manner to the opposite leg not resting on surface.

Note: Washers are included to aid in leveling, if necessary.

USING YOUR ELECTRIC SKILLET

1. Place appliance on dry, level, heat-resistant surface, away from any edge.
   NOTE: Do not block airflow under the skillet.

2. Attach heat control to skillet, making sure it is set at “OFF”. Plug cord into a 120 volt AC electric outlet only.

3. Preheat skillet, uncovered, for 2 to 4 minutes until desired temperature is reached, unless recipe states not to preheat. Signal light on heat control will be on while skillet is heating.

4. Refer to the Temperature Guide in this booklet for selecting the correct heat setting. (If food is frozen, use heat setting as indicated, but allow longer cooking time).

5. When the signal light on the heat control goes out indicating that the cooking temperature has been reached, add the food. Heat may be increased or decreased, depending upon personal preference and the type or amount of food being prepared. The signal light will go on and off during cooking to indicate that proper temperature is being maintained.

6. At the end of the cooking period, set the heat control at WARM for serving, or at OFF if food will be removed immediately from skillet. After dial is set at OFF, unplug cord from wall outlet.
   • A small amount of odor may occur during operation due to the release of manufacturing oils – this is normal.

COOKING TIPS

Foods may be prepared with or without butter, shortening or oil. When frying, using a small amount will improve the flavor, color and/or crispness of meat, fish, poultry and eggs. Skillet is not designed to deep fry. Never use more than one cup of vegetable or peanut oil for shallow pan-frying. Meat may be cooked in its own juices if skillet is covered and heat control set at SIMMER.
Plastic, rubber and wooden cooking tools are recommended for use on the non- stick surface. Smooth-edged metal cooking tools may be used with care. However, do not use sharp-edged metal (forks, knives, mashers, beaters or food choppers) as scratching may occur. Minor scratching will affect only the appearance of the surface; it will not harm its non-stick property or the food prepared in the skillet.

Cleaning Your Electric Skillet

1. Clean your skillet thoroughly after each use. Do not immerse the skillet in cold water when it is hot. Let skillet cool completely, then remove the temperature control. Immerse the skillet in hot, soapy water. Wipe the temperature control with a damp cloth if necessary.
2. Clean the non-stick surface of the skillet with hot soapy water, using a nonmetal scrubber. A dishcloth or sponge may give the non-stick surface a clean look, but will not remove the tiny food particles that can settle in the finish. Do not use metal scouring pads or harsh scouring powders.
3. After washing, rinse the skillet thoroughly with hot water and dry completely, including temperature control socket area.
4. Your skillet (with temperature control removed) may be cleaned in an automatic dishwasher. The under side of skillet will discolor due to the minerals in water and the high heat of the drying cycle. This will not affect the cooking ability of the skillet. Each time your skillet is cleaned in a dishwasher, the non-stick surface should be reconditioned with cooking oil to ensure stick-free cooking.

SPECIAL CARE:

1. A spotted white film may form on the non-stick surface. This is a buildup of minerals from foods or water and is not a defect in the surface. To remove, soak a soft cloth in lemon juice or vinegar and rub on the finish. Wash the nonstick surface thoroughly, rinse and dry. Recondition the non-stick surface with cooking oil.
2. The non-stick surface may also become stained from improper cleaning or overheating. To remove stains, clean the non-stick surface by the following method. Combine 1 cup of water and 1 tablespoon of ONE of the following cleaners: Dip-It® coffee pot destainer, automatic dishwasher detergent or dry oxygen bleach crystals. USE ONLY ONE OF THE ABOVE CLEANERS; DO NOT COMBINE. Preheat the skillet to 225°F. Wearing rubber gloves, dip a sponge into the water mixture and wipe over the surface.

Continue cleaning procedure until mixture is gone. Turn the skillet to “OFF” and allow it to cool. Remove the temperature control. Scour the non-stick surface with hot soapy water and a non-metal scouring pad. Rinse thoroughly and dry. Recondition the non-stick surface with cooking oil before using.

Roasting Guide

Roasting – Best suited for skillets with high dome covers.

eating
| | 140°F/60°C fully cooked
| Canned| 140°F/60°C
Lamb| | 170°F to 180°F/76°C to 82°C
Veal| | 170°F/76°C
Poultry| | 180°F/82°C

Beef, pork, lamb, veal and poultry may be roasted in the skillet. To obtain more satisfactory results, a metal wire rack, which may be included with your skillet, should be used to lift the food off the cooking surface. If a rack is not included with skillet, a metal wire rack that fits into the bottom of the skillet and is about ½-inch high with smooth support legs can be used. Follow these basic guidelines for roasting:

1. To help seal in natural juices, roasts should be browned in the skillet before roasting. Simply preheat the skillet, uncovered, at 325°F/162°C and add the roast. Brown as desired on all sides. Remove roast, place rack into skillet and replace roast onto rack, fat side up. Season as desired.
2. Insert meat thermometer tip into thickest part of roast making sure it does not touch a bone or rest in fat. Cover skillet and roast at 225°F/107°C. If spattering of juices becomes excessive during the roasting period, reduce the temperature setting to SIMMER. A small amount (½ cup) of water may be added if desired.
3. Roast meat to recommended or desired internal temperature, see Roasting Chart. Turn heat control to OFF. Avoid removing the cover too frequently as roasting time will be lengthened. Remove roast from rack and allow to stand 10 minutes for easier carving. Always use hot pads to remove rack. Juices in the skillet may be used for gravy, if desired.

Poultry

1. Place unstuffed roasting chicken onto a rack in the skillet. Baste with melted butter or margarine and season as desired. Using seasoned salt will help to brown any poultry.
2. Insert meat thermometer tip into thick part of thigh making sure the tip does not touch a bone. Cover and roast at 225°F/107°C. Reduce temperature setting to SIMMER if spattering becomes excessive. A small amount (½ cup) of water may be added if desired. Baste poultry occasionally with melted butter or margarine if desired.
3. Roast poultry to an internal temperature of 180°F/82°C. Turn heat control to OFF. Remove poultry from rack and allow to stand 10 minutes for easier carving. Always use hot pads to remove rack. Juices may be used for gravy if desired. NOTE: Roasting duckling and goose is not recommended due to the excess amount of grease that accumulates.

Ham – Fresh, Smoked or Canned

1. Place ham on a rack in the skillet. Score if desired. Insert meat thermometer tip into thickest part of ham, making sure it does not touch a bone or rest in fat. Cover and roast at 225°F/107°C. Reduce temperature setting to SIMMER if spattering becomes excessive. A small amount (½ cup) of water may be added if desired.
2. Roast ham to internal temperature recommended for type of ham being prepared. If desired, ham may be glazed at the end of roasting period. Turn heat control to OFF. Remove ham from rack and allow to stand 10 minutes before carving. Use hot pads to remove rack, as it will be hot. NOTE: If space permits, scrubbed and pricked potatoes may be baked on rack around meat or poultry. Medium-sized potatoes will require about 1 hour of baking time at 225°F/107°C.

STEAM GUIDE

Steaming:
Your skillet may include a square metal wire rack for steaming. If a steaming rack is not included, a metal wire rack that fits into the bottom of the skillet and is about ½inch high can be used providing it has smooth support legs that will not scratch the non-stick interior.

Cauliflower — 1 large head| 12-15 minutes| Remove core
Corn-on-the-cob — 4 ears| 10-12 minutes| Remove husk and silk

Follow these guidelines for steaming foods in your skillet:

1. Place steaming rack into bottom of skillet and add 2 to 3 cups of water. Place food to be steamed directly on rack in a single layer to ensure even cooking. Cover skillet.
2. Steam food at 225°F/107°C until desired or recommended doneness is obtained. If food is steamed more than 20 minutes, more water may need to be added to prevent skillet from boiling dry. ALWAYS REMOVE COVER CAREFULLY DUE TO ESCAPING STEAM. After steaming, turn heat control knob to OFF and unplug cord from electrical outlet., Remove food from rack and allow skillet to cool completely before cleaning.
