ADDITIONAL IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

CAUTION HOT SURFACES: This appliance generates heat and escaping steam during use. Proper precautions must be taken to prevent the risk of burns, fires or other injury to persons or damage to property.

CAUTION: This appliance is hot during operation and retains heat for some time after turning OFF. Always use oven mitts when handling hot materials and allow metal parts to cool before cleaning. Do not place anything on top of the appliance while it is operating or while it is hot.

1. All users of this 5-in-1 Expandable Skillet must read and understand this Instruction Manual before operating or cleaning this appliance.
2. The cord to this appliance should be plugged into a 120V AC electrical outlet only.
3. If this appliance begins to malfunction during use, immediately unplug the cord. Then remove the temperature control probe. Do not use or attempt to repair the malfunctioning appliance.
4. Do not leave this appliance unattended during use.
5. CAUTION: DO NOT USE COOKING SPRAYS. Cooking sprays can cause build-up and may affect the non-stick performance of the Electric Skillet.
6. To preserve the Electric Skillet’s non-stick coating, always use nylon, plastic, wooden or rubber utensils.
7. NEVER cut food on the Electric Skillet’s cooking surface.

NOTES ON THE 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 in 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 modify the plug in any way.

NOTES ON THE CORD

• A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord) is to be provided to reduce risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
• Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.
• If a long detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used:

1. 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;
2. If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounding- type 3-wire cord;
3. The longer 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.

PLASTICIZER WARNING
CAUTION: To prevent Plasticizers from migrating to the finish of the counter top or table top or other furniture, place NON-PLASTIC coasters or place mats between the appliance and the finish of the counter top or table top. Failure to do so may cause the finish to darken; permanent blemishes may occur, or stains can appear.

ELECTRIC POWER
If the electrical circuit is overloaded with other appliances, your appliance may not operate properly.
It should be operated on a separate electrical circuit from other appliances.
