CONDITIONINGOF THE NON-STICK COATED PAN

Before using your new appliance, wash the inside of the pan with warm, sudsy water and dry. Rub a film of cooking or salad oil all over the non-stick coating on the inside of the pan. Remove any excess oil with a cloth or paper towel.

USING THE ELECTRIC SKILLET

Push the heat controller firmly into its socket to be found at the side of the appliance. Plug into the main electrical supply.

2.To set the temperature you want, turn the knob on the heat controller. The indicator light will come on displaying an illuminated triangle. Set the temperature of your choice opposite the illuminated triangle, When the light goes off, the chosen cooking temperature has been reached. During cooking the light will blink on and off indicating the temperature is being maintained. Guidance in the choice of temperatures is supplied later in this book.

3.The capacity of the appliance is 2.5 quarts.

4.It is recommended that you do not cook with the Electric Skillet standing on heat sensitive surfaces.

5.For simmering, set the control knob to 200°F and wait until the liquid boils. Turn the knob towards the SIMMER setting until the light goes out. This is the SIMMER setting of your Electric Skillet. Set the dial at this point each time SIMMER is specified in a recipe.

6.Do not dig into the non-stick finish with metal implements. Wood or plastic coated spatulas are best. If you use plastic tools, make sure they are suitable for use on hot surfaces.

CLEANING THE P AN

REMOVE THE HEAT CONTROLLER

Allow the appliance to cool. Wash the pan and lid with hot sudsy water. Providing the heat controller is removed, you can totally immerse the pan or place in the dishwasher. The lid is also dishwasher-safe providing it is placed in the TOP RACK ONLY.

DO NOT PLACE LID UPSIDE DOWN IN BOTTOM DISHWASHER RACK.

To remove stubborn food residues, use a nylon scourer. NEVER use abrasive powder cleaners or metal scouring pads because these will damage the non-stick coating. After washing, dry the pan thoroughly, while paying particular attention to the electrical socket and pins. DO NOT USE METAL PADS TO CLEAN ELECTRICAL PINS.
