5. To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse heat control, cord, or plug in water or other liquid.
6. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
7. 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.
8. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or in the event the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in

Important Cord Information
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit
into 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 modify the plug in any way.
A short power supply cord (or cord set) is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer
cord. Extension cords may be used if care is properly exercised in their use. If an 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 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.
Connect the power supply cord to a 120VAC electrical outlet only.

Before the First Use
As received, your skillet will be in its storage position with the base and cover nested inside the
pan. Remove all packing material and then wash the skillet according to the “Care and Cleaning”
instructions starting at the bottom of the page.
Important: Before using your skillet, it must be fully assembled as instructed below:
1. Place the removable base on a flat surface with the rubber feet down. The Presto logo should
be right side up and facing you. Lift the handles and fold them out to the fully extended
position (Fig. A).
2. Set the skillet pan onto the base so the supports fit into the recessed areas on the base (Fig. B).
3. Attach the base to the pan by rotating the handles towards the pan until you hear the latches
lock into place (Fig. C). When properly assembled, you should not be able to lift the pan off
of the base.
CAUTION! This skillet is not intended to melt wax, gels, plastics, glue, or other materials for
making candles or other hobbyist activities, or in any commercial or business application.

How To Use
1. Place assembled skillet on a dry, level, heat-resistant surface.
2. Insert the Control Master heat control probe into the skillet so the two electrical pins on
the skillet are fully inserted into the heat control. Connect cord to a 120VAC electrical wall outlet only.
3. Turn Control Master heat control to desired temperature (see page 3 for cooking temperatures). Remove cover and preheat skillet.
Pilot light goes off when selected temperature is reached (this takes approximately 5 to 10 minutes).
Note: Occasionally you may hear a pop or clicking sound while the skillet is preheating; this is due to the expansion of the metal as
it heats. It is normal. You may also notice this sound as the unit cools down.
4. Prepare food for cooking. Because the skillet features a nonstick surface, food may be prepared with little or no oil.
NOTICE: Avoid using no-stick cooking sprays as they may cause the cooking surface to become tacky.
5. Place food in skillet and cook according to the temperature-timetable (page 3). Heat should be adjusted according to personal preference
and particular food being cooked. During cooking, pilot light will go on and off indicating desired temperature is being maintained.
The pouring spout may be used as a handy spoon rest and spatula holder during cooking. For best results use heat-resistant nylon,
plastic, or wooden utensils in the skillet. Do not use metal utensils as they may scratch the nonstick surface and also become hot if
left in the skillet during cooking. Do not cut foods on the cooking surface.
CAUTION! When the cover is placed on the skillet and the contents are boiling, it is normal for some steam to vent from the pour
spout. Do not reach over pour spout when steam is venting. Contact with steam can cause burns.
6. Turn heat control to OFF when cooking is completed. Unplug heat control from wall outlet then from appliance. Allow skillet to cool
before cleaning.

Care and Cleaning
Because this skillet has a removable base, the skillet pan and cover easily fit in most dishwashers for cleaning. Wash the pan and cover
before each use and after each subsequent use. Do not immerse Control Master heat control in water or let it come in contact with
any liquid.
NOTICE: If you choose to wash the skillet pan in a dishwasher, the bottom of the pan will likely discolor due to the caustic nature of the
dishwashing detergent. A gray residue may also form on the skillet bottom which may transfer onto towels and/or skin.
