uSiNg YOur ELECTriC SKiLLET
Clean skillet as per instructions in MAINTAINING YOUR SKILLET. Next, using a paper
towel, “season” the nonstick cooking surface by rubbing lightly with cooking oil.
1. Place the skillet on a dry level surface. Also, place a heat resistant counter protector,
such as aluminum foil, under appliance to prevent possible heat damage to your
counter top.
2. Insert the Temperature Control Probe into the skillet making sure the two electrical
pins on the skillet are fully inserted into the heat control unit.
3. Connect the power cord to a polarized outlet only.
4. Turn the temperature control probe to the desired temperature (see pages 5 to 7 for
cooking temperatures), and then remove the cover to preheat the skillet.
The pilot light goes off when the skillet reaches the selected temperature;
this takes approximately 10 to 15 minutes.
5. Prepare the food for cooking. The skillet has a nonstick finish, and therefore,
food may be prepared with little or no oil.
6. Place food in skillet and cook according to the temperature-timetable
(pages 5 to 7). The heat can be adjusted at any time according to personal
preference, or dependant on the type of food being cooked. The pilot light goes
on and off during cooking, indicating the skillet is keeping the desired temperature.
This condition is normal and the skillet is not malfunctioning.
7. Turn the temperature control probe to OFF when cooking is completed. Then unplug
the temperature control probe from the wall outlet and from the appliance.

1. Unplug the skillet and detach the temperature control probe. Wash the electric
skillet base in warm soapy water, and rinse it dry after each use. All parts except the
temperature control probe are fully immersible and dishwasher safe.
2. For best results, use nylon, plastic, wooden, or rubber utensils. Do not use metal
utensils as they may scratch the nonstick surface. Also, do not cut food on
the cooking surface.
3. Clean the nonstick surface with a non-metal cleaning pad after each use.
Firm pressure can be applied if necessary.
4. Do not use steel wool or abrasive kitchen cleaners to clean the electric skillet.
