IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always
be followed, including the following:
1. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
2. Do not touch hot surfaces; use handles or knobs.
3. To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not immerse cord, plugs, or
temperature control in water or any other liquid.
4. To avoid possible accidental injury, close supervision is necessary when
any appliance is used by or near children.
5. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool
before putting on or taking off parts.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the
appliance has malfunctioned or has been dropped or damaged in any
way or is not operating properly. Return the appliance to the nearest
Cuisinart Repair Center for examination, repair or mechanical or
electrical adjustment.
7. The use of attachments not recommended by Cuisinart may cause fire,
electrical shock, or risk of injury.
8. Do not use outdoors.
9. Do not use the Skillet for anything other than its intended use.
10. To avoid the possibility of the Skillet being accidentally pulled off work
area, which could result in damage to the Skillet or in personal injury, do
not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.
11. Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot
oil or other hot liquids.
12. Always attach temperature probe to appliance first, then plug cord in the
wall outlet. To disconnect, turn temperature control to “OFF”, then remove
plug from wall outlet.
13. To avoid damage to cord and possible fire or electrocution hazard, do not
let cord contact hot surfaces, including a stove.
14. When oil is heated to high temperature in any vessel, flammable gases
are given off. Do not expose a flame to these gases as this could be
dangerous. Never cover Skillet when heating oil.
15. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
SPECIAL CORD SET INSTRUCTIONS:
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks of becoming
entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
Longer extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised.
If a long extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the extension
cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. The
longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or
tabletop where it can be pulled by children or tripped over.
NOTICE:
This appliance has a polarized plug (one prong is wider than the other). As a
safety feature, this plug will fit into 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.
