Before using for the first time

-Wash the Wok and cover in hot soapy water, wiping with a sponge or dishcloth, before initial

use. Rinse well with clear water and dry thoroughly.

Caution: Always remove the temperature control unit before placing the Wok in water. The Wok itself is fully immersible, but dry the control socket and contact pins on the Wok carefully.

-Wipe the inside of the Wok with a tablespoon of cooking oil before each use, and allow the oil to remain on the surface of the non-stick finish.

How to use

Cooking time in a Wok is very short, so always have all food prepared and ready, and ingredients and tools assembled before tuming on the temperature control.

Operating the Wok

Place the Wok on a dry level surface. The heat- resistant base is safe for counter or table use. Dry your hands before using the Wok.

Set the temperature control at 'off' and attach to the Wok.

Plug into a 220 V outlet.

If you must use an extension cord while cooking with the Wok, be sure the wattage rating of the extension is the same or greater than that of the Wok.

Set the temperature according to the recipe selected.

If pre-heating is required, the signal light on the temperature control will go out when cooking temperature is reached.

Heat may be adjusted as desired during the cooking period.

After cooking, set the temperature control to simmer for serving, or at OFF, if you have finished using the Wok.

If you are finished, unplug the Wok from the wall outlet.

Allow Wok to cool before removing the temperature control.

The metal probe of the control becomes extremely hot. Do not touch it or bring it into contact with non-heat resistant objects or surfaces.

Cooking utensils

Use heat-resistant plastic or wooden cooking tools.

Longhandled wooden spoons or cooking chopsticks are ideal tools for stir-frying.

Do not use sharp-edged metal tools as they will mar the non-stick finish. (Minor scratching does not affect the non-stick properties of the Wok, nor does it harm food prepared in the Wok.)
