CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
•
Medium and low heat settings will yield the best results for most types of cooking.
Heating the skillet gradually will ensure even heat distribution. Do not use your
skillet on maximum temp settings as this will shorten the life of the non-stick
coating.
•
Do not allow your skillet to boil dry as this may cause damage to the non-stick
surface.
•
The skillet is suitable for use with wood, nylon and plastic utensils. Do not use steel
utensils as they may scratch the non-stick surface. Scratching of the non-stick
surface is not covered by warranty.
CLEANING
1.
Allow the appliance to cool completely before cleaning. Exposing your skillet to
water while hot may cause warping and/or damage.
2.
Once cooled, filling the skillet with water and allowing it to soak will assist in the
removal of tough baked on particles.
3.
Make sure the temperature control knob is in the OFF position and the power cord is
unplugged.
4.
When washing, non-abrasive cloths and plastic bristle kitchen brushes may be used
to remove stubborn food particles from your skillet. Do not use abrasive cloths and
cleaning materials as they may damage the non-stick surface.
5.
The glass lid is dishwasher safe (TOP RACK ONLY) or can be washed by hand with
warm soapy water and a clean non-abrasive sponge or cloth.
6.
The inner body of the skillet can be cleaned with a damp soapy cloth or sponge.
