HOW TO USE YOUR HOT POT
Place the hot pot on a level surface such as a countertop or table.
Make sure the sides and back of the hot pot are at least 4 inches away from any walls, cabinets, or
objects on the counter or table.
Turn the temperature control dial to MIN. Plug cord into any standard 120V AC wall outlet.
CAUTION:
DO NOT USE COOKING SPRAYS. Cooking sprays can cause build-up and may affect the nonstick
performance of the accessories.
Preheat for approximately 5 to 10 minutes before cooking by turning the temperature control dial to
HIGH, MEDIUM or LOW. The indicator light will illuminate as soon as the dial is rotated. The light will
go out once the selected temperature has been reached.
Add food and cook according to your recipe. Adjust temperature control dial as necessary.
Do not exceed the MAX WATER indicated line when filling the unit with any liquids.
NOTE:
During cooking, the light will cycle on and off as the hot pot maintains the selected temperature.
For best results, and to preserve the hot pot and the grill plate’s nonstick coating, use nylon, plastic,
wooden or rubber utensils.
IMPORTANT:
NEVER cut food in the hot pot or on the grill plate’s cooking surface.
Liquids such as broth, wine, beer, water, etc. may be added to the hot pot during cooking.
When cooking has been completed, turn the temperature control dial to MIN.
Unplug cord from wall outlet. Let the hot pot and accessories cool completely before handling.
LID CAUTION: ESCAPING STEAM IS HOT! BE CAREFUL WHEN REMOVING OR LIFTING LID. CONDENSATION
MAY BE CREATED UNDER THE LID. ALWAYS HANDLE WITH CARE.
TO PREVENT PERSONAL INJURY OR STEAM BURNS DUE TO HOT WATER CONDENSATION INSIDE THE LID:
Use protective oven mitts.
Prepare a flat, clean, empty area with hot pads or protective covering available to place the hot lid.
When removing the lid, always tilt the lid away from hands and face.
