Foods may be prepared with or without butter, shortening or oil. When frying, using
a small amount will improve the flavor, color and/or crispness of meat, fish, poultry
and eggs. Skillet is not designed to deep fry. Never use more than one cup of
vegetable or peanut oil for shallow pan-frying. Meat may be cooked in its own juices
if skillet is covered and heat control set at SIMMER.
Plastic, rubber and wooden cooking tools are recommended for use on the non-stick
surface. Smooth-edged metal cooking tools may be used with care. However, do not
use sharp-edged metal (forks, knives, mashers, beaters or food choppers) as
scratching may occur. Minor scratching will affect only the appearance of the
surface; it will not harm its non-stick property or the food prepared in the skillet.

Cleaning Your Electric Skillet
1. Clean your skillet thoroughly after each use. Do not immerse the skillet in cold
water when it is hot. Let skillet cool completely, then remove the temperature
control. Immerse the skillet in hot, soapy water. Wipe the temperature control
with a damp cloth if necessary.
2.
Clean the non-stick surface of the skillet with hot soapy water, using a non-
metal scrubber. A dishcloth or sponge may give the non-stick surface a clean
look, but will not remove the tiny food particles that can settle in the finish. Do
not use metal scouring pads or harsh scouring powders.
3.
After washing, rinse the skillet thoroughly with hot water and dry completely,
including temperature control socket area.
4.
Your skillet (with temperature control removed) may be cleaned in an automatic
dishwasher. The under side of skillet will discolor due to the minerals in water
and the high heat of the drying cycle. This will not affect the cooking ability of the
skillet. Each time your skillet is cleaned in a dishwasher, the non-stick surface
should be reconditioned with cooking oil to ensure stick-free cooking.
