Before Using for the First Time
1. Carefully unpack the Electric Skillet and remove all packaging materials.
2. Before cooking in the Electric Skillet for the first time, wash the non-stick Skillet in mild dishwashing
soap, wipe and allow to dry.
NOTE: THE SKILLET IS NOT DISHWASHER SAFE.
3. Turn the temperature control to 450˚ F and heat empty Electric Skillet uncovered for approximately
5 minutes. This will ensure the non-stick coating is ready for use. You will notice a slight odor;
this is normal and should quickly disappear.

Operating Instructions
1. Place the Electric Skillet on a level surface such as a countertop or table.
NOTE:
Some countertop and table surfaces, such as Corian® and other surfaces, are not designed
to withstand the prolonged heat generated by this Electric Skillet. We recommend placing a hot pad
or trivet under the Electric Skillet beforehand to avoid possible damage to the surface.
2. Be sure the sides and back of the Electric Skillet are at least 4 inches away from any walls, cabinets,
or objects on the counter or table.
3. Turn temperature control probe to the OFF position.
4. Plug the temperature control probe securely into Electric Skillet’s control probe socket.
Plug cord into any standard 120V AC wall outlet.
IMPORTANT: ALWAYS PLUG CORD INTO SKILLET FIRST, THEN INTO WALL OUTLET.
5. Preheat Electric Skillet for approximately 5 minutes before cooking. To preheat, turn
the temperature control to desired temperature. The indicator light on the temperature control
probe will illuminate as soon as the dial is rotated. The light will go out once the selected
temperature has been reached.
6. Add food and cook according to the recipe. Adjust temperature control dial as necessary.
NOTE: During cooking, the light will go on and off indicating that the Electric Skillet is maintaining
proper temperature.
