❑Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.

❑Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts and before cleaning the appliance.

❑Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or has been dropped or damaged in any manner. Return the appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair, or electrical or mechanical adjustment.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

GROUNDED PLUG (Canada Models Only)

This product is equipped with a grounded plug, which will only fit into a three-prong outlet. Do not attempt to defeat this feature. Improper connection of the grounding conductor may result in the risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded.

POLARIZED PLUG (US Models Only)

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way.

ELECTRICAL CORD

a)A short detachable power-supply cord is to be provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

b)Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.

c)If a longer detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used,

1)The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and

2)The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally. If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.

TAMPER-RESISTANT SCREW

This appliance is equipped with a tamper-resistant screw to prevent removal of the bottom cover. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not attempt to remove the bottom cover. There are no user serviceable parts inside. Repair should be done only by authorized service personnel.

Note: If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.

ASSEMBLE BEFORE FIRST USE

1.Place the Skillet Pan upside down on a table or counter and remove the screws. Be sure the metal washers remain in place over the holes.

2.Position each Handle overhanging the edge of the counter for easier assembly so that the holes in the Handles line up with the holes in the raised “mounting” area on the bottom of the Skillet Pan.

NOTE: For models with the Tilt-Leg Feature — decide which side of the Pan you would like to have raised (see “Tilt-Leg Feature”). We recommend installing the handle with the tilt-leg on the control side so that juices will flow to the opposite end for easier basting; however, you may choose either side.

3.Use the screws to secure the Handles to the Skillet Pan. DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN as it may crack the Handles. Turn the Skillet Pan back over and place it on a flat, level surface to be sure the Handles and Feet sit level.
