USING YOUR ELECTRIC SKILLET
Upon the first initial use, the electric skillet may give off a light smoke and a slight burning odor. This is due to the protective coating
applied to the non-stick surface during manufacturing. It is harmless and will subside with subsequent use.
NOTE: Do not use metal utensils. Do not cut foods in the skillet; it will damage the nonstick surface. Use only wooden, nylon or
plastic utensils that are suitable for use on hot surfaces.
1.
Place the skillet on a dry, flat stable surface.
2.
Make sure the temperature control knob is in the OFF position and insert thermostat control probe into the side of the skillet
body where it is indicated by a small rectangular opening. Line up the metal conductor and push in gently.
3.
Plug the power cord into a wall outlet. Set thermostat to desired temperature. Wait a few minutes for skillet to heat up and
place prepared food into the skillet.
4.
When the selected temperature is reached, the light will go OFF.
NOTE: The light will cycle ON and OFF during cooking, indicating the selected cooking temperature is being maintained.

If desired, place glass lid over the skillet and keep covered to prevent heat from escaping or liquid from splattering.
