GE 681131689489 Important Safeguards, Save These Instructions, Getting To Know Your Skillet

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!

CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION

This appliance is intended for household use only. This appliance has no user-serviceable parts inside.

•READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

•Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.

•To protect against electrical hazards, do not immerse cord, plugs, or heat control plug in water or other liquid.

•Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used near children. This appliance is not to be used

by children.

•Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow cooling 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 damaged in any manner. Call Customer Service (see warranty) to return for examination, repair, or adjustment.

•The use of accessory attachments not recommended or sold by the appliance manufacturer for use with this model may cause fire, electric shock or injury.

•Do not use outdoors.

•Do not let cord hang over

edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.

•Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.

•Extreme caution must be used when moving appliance containing hot oil or other hot liquids.

•When connecting an appliance, always take hold of the plug—never the cord—and attach to appliance first, then plug cord into the wall outlet. To disconnect, turn the heat control to the lowest position then remove plug from wall outlet first, in the same manner.

•Do not use appliance for other than intended household use.

Extension Cord

A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer detachable power-supply or extension cords may be used if care is exercised in use. If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the skillet. The extension 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.

Electrical Power

If electric circuit is overloaded with other appliances, the Skillet may not operate properly. Skillet must be operated on separate circuit from other operating appliances.

Grounded-Type 3-Wire Cord

This appliance is equipped with a grounded-type 3-wire cord (3-prong plug). This type of plug will only fit into an electrical outlet made for a 3-prong plug. This is a safety feature intended to help reduce the risk of electrical shock. If the plug should fail to fit, contact a qualified electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the grounding pin by modifying the plug in any way.
