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.
How to Assemble
1. Place the skillet upside down on a table or counter.
2. Remove the four screws from the mounting projections on the skillet body.
3. Position the leg handle assemblies on the skillet, lining up the holes in the legs with the mounting
projections on the skillet.
4. Replace the screws and fasten securely (Fig. A). When properly assembled, the skillet should sit level.
NOTICE: Continuing to tighten screws, once secure, can result in stripping of screws or cracking of
handles or legs.
5. Attach the cover handle to the cover. Remove the two screws from the handle. For easiest alignment,
hold the handle so the screw holes are facing up. Position the inverted cover over the handle and align
the cover holes with the handle holes. Insert the two screws through the holes. Using a Phillips type screwdriver, fasten handle to
cover until it is secure. NOTICE: Continuing to tighten screws, once secure, can result in stripping of screws or cracking of handle
or cover.

NOTICE: This skillet is not intended to be used as a warming tray, hot plate, or for heating any cookware. Using this product for purposes
different from those specified in the instruction manual may cause damage to the product and will void the product warranty.
How to Use
Before using for the first time, wash the skillet and cover in warm, soapy water, rinse, and dry. Do not immerse Control Master heat
control in water or let it come in contact with any liquid.
1. Place skillet on a dry, level, heat-resistant surface away from walls, cabinets, and other objects. NOTICE: To prevent possible heat
damage to your countertop, place a heat-resistant counter protector, such as aluminum foil, under the skillet; take care not to place
the foil under the legs.
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 (Fig. B) to desired temperature (see temperature-timetable on
page 3). 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 temperature-timetable. 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.
