SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance is for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY. No user-serviceable parts inside. Power Unit never needs lubrication. Do not attempt to service this product.

A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from entanglement or tripping over a longer cord. AN EXTENSION CORD MAY BE

USED WITH CARE; HOWEVER, THE MARKED ELECTRICAL RATING SHOULD BE AT LEAST AS GREAT AS THE ELECTRICAL RATING OF THE SKILLET. The extension cord should not be allowed to drape over the counter or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or unintentionally tripped over. KEEP WARM SETTING: The TEMPERATURE CONTROL PROBE has a

“Keep Warm” range setting of approximately 160° to 180° F. The indicator light will cycle on and off when this setting is maintaining the desired temperature. NOTE: During initial use of this appliance, some slight smoke and/or odor may be detected. This is normal with many heating appliances and will not recur after a few uses. Only use with Temperature Control Probe number NWTC-1.

POLARIZED PLUG

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature, 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 attempt to defeat this safety feature.
