IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using your electric skillet, basic safety precautions should always be
followed, including the following:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
• Be sure that lid handles are assembled and fastened properly.
• Do not touch hot surfaces, use handles.
• To protect against electric shock, do not immerse the temperature controller,
cord or plug in water or other liquids.
• Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
• Unplug the appliance from the outlet when not in use and before cleaning.
Allow appliance to cool before putting on or taking off parts and before
cleaning appliance.
• Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or after
the appliance malfunctions, or has been damaged in any manner. Return
to an Authorized Service Station for examination, repair or electrical or
mechanical adjustment. You can locate the nearest service center by
calling 1.800.334.0759.

manufacturer may cause injuries.

A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from
becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. An extension cord may be
used if care is exercised in its use. If an extension cord is used, the electrical rating
of the cord must be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. 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.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
FOR PRODUCTS PURCHASED IN THE U.S. AND CANADA ONLY
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one
blade is wider than the other). This plug fits a polarized outlet only one way;
if the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not
fit, contact a qualified electrician.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DEFEAT THIS SAFETY FEATURE.
DO NOT CHANGE THE PLUG IN ANY WAY.
