condition it again.
USING THE
ELECTRIC SKILLET
1.
Push the temperature controller firmly into its socket found at the side of the
appliance.
Plug into a standard 120 Volt AC outlet.
2. Set the temperature you want by turning the knob on the temperature
controller. The indicator light will come on. Set the temperature of your
choice
opposite the indicator light. When the light goes off, the chosen cooking
temperature
has been reached. During cooking, the light will blink on and off
indicating the temperature
is being maintained. Guidance in the choice of
temperatures is supplied later in this book.
3. The capacity of Model 3004 is 29 cups / 7.25 quarts / 6.85 liters.
The capacity of Model 3001 is 16.75 cups / 4.19 quarts / 3.97 liters.
4. It is recommended that you do not cook with the Electric Skillet standing
on temperature sensitive surfaces.
5.
For simmering, set the temperature control knob to 300°F/150°C or SIMMER
and wait until the liquid boils. Turn the knob toward the WARM setting.
Set the dial to this point each time SIMMER is specified in a recipe.
6.
Do not use metal utensils in your Electric Skillet as they may damage the
non-stick coating. Wood or plastic coated spatulas
are best. If you use plastic
tools, make sure they are suitable for use on hot surfaces.
7. To remove the temperature controller, wrap your hand around the
temperature controller and the quick release latch and squeeze.
The controller will automatically release.

Allow the appliance to cool. Wash the pan and lid with hot sudsy water.
You can totally immerse the pan or place in the dishwasher. The lid is
also dishwasher-safe providing it is
placed in the
TOP RACK ONLY.
DO NOT PLACE LID UPSIDE DOWN IN BOTTOM DISHWASHER
RACK
. To remove stubborn food residues, use a nylon scourer. NEVER use
abrasive powder cleaners or metal scouring pads because these will damage
the non-stick coating. After washing, dry the pan
thoroughly, while paying
particular attention to the electrical socket and pins.
DO NOT USE METAL
PADS TO CLEAN ELECTRICAL PINS.
STORAGE AND
MAINTENANCE
Allow appliance to cool before storing. Store your Electric Skillet in a dry location,
such as on a tabletop or countertop, or on a cupboard shelf. Wind the electrical
cord into a coil and secure with a twist fastener.
Other than recommended cleaning, no further user maintenance should be
necessary.
TO USE SKILLET LIFT
The skillet lift was specially designed for healthier cooking and easier clean up.
Tilt the
skillet lift
before cooking, to avoid burning your fingers on the
hot pan.
The fat and oil drains to the tilted side of the pan . . . and away
from your food.
If pan is in use, before lowering tilt leg be sure to protect hand with an oven glove
as the skillet lift can get very hot.
