CARE AND ClEANING
Wash appliance in dishwasher or in warm sudsy water, rinse, and dry.
Do not immerse heat control or
magnetic cord assembly in water or let them come in contact with any liquid.
After each use, clean the nonstick base with a non-metal cleaning pad, such as Scotch-Brite* Multi-Purppose
Scrub Sponge or Scotch-Brite* Dobie** Cleaning Pad. Firm pressure can be applied, if necessary.
Do not
use steel wool or abrasive kitchen cleaners.
In time, the nonstick finish may darken over the heating element. To remove this discoloration, use a com-
mercial cleaner designed for cleaning surfaces, such as dip-it† destainer. These cleaners are available at
most grocery and hardware stores. For best results, follow the manufacturer’s instructions, being careful
that any cleaning solution coming in contact with the exterior of the appliance is wiped off. After treating
the appliance with a commercial cleaner, it is recommended that the cooking surface be wiped lightly with
a cooking oil before using.
Periodically check the screws on the two handles and four legs for looseness. Retighten, if necessary, with
a standard slotted screwdriver. CAUTION: Overtightening can result in stripping of screws or cracking of
handles and legs.
Any maintenance required for this product, other than normal household care and cleaning, should be per-
formed by the Presto Factory Service Department or a Presto Authorized Service Station, see page 13.
For answers to any questions regarding the operation of your Presto
appliance or if you need parts for your
