When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always
be followed including the following:
❑
Read all instructions.
❑
Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
❑
To protect against electric shock, do not spill on or immerse cord, plug,
or temperature control in water or other liquids.
❑
Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near
children.
❑
Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool
before putting on or taking off parts and before cleaning the appliance.
❑
Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after
the appliance malfunctions or has been dropped or damaged in any
manner. Return the appliance to the nearest authorized service facility
for examination, repair, or electrical or mechanical adjustment. Or, call
the appropriate toll-free number on the cover of this manual.
❑
The use of attachments not recommended by the appliance
manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock or injuries.
❑
Do not use outdoors.
❑
Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter when it can be
accidentally pulled or touch hot surfaces.
❑
Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated
oven.
❑
Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing
hot oil or other hot liquids.
❑
Always attach temperature control to the skillet first, then plug cord in
the wall outlet. To disconnect, turn any control to "off," then remove
the plug from the wall outlet.
❑
Do not use the appliance for other than intended use.
This product is equipped with a grounded plug, which will only fit into a three-prong
outlet. Do not attempt to defeat this feature. Improper connection of the grounding
conductor may result in the risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician if you
are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded.
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the
risk of electric shock, 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 modify the plug in any way.
a) A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord) is to be provided
to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over
a longer cord.
b) Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and
may be used if care is exercised in their use.
c) If a long detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used,
1) The marked electrical rating of the detachable power-supply cord
or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating
of the appliance,
2) If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should
be a grounding-type 3-wire cord, and
3) The longer 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.
If the power supply cord is damaged, it should be replaced by qualified
personnel. In Latin America by an authorized service center.
