IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and injury to persons, including the following:

•

Read all instructions before using appliance.

•

Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.

•

To protect against electric shock, do not immerse cord, plug, or the appliance in water or other liquid. See instructions for cleaning.

• This appliance is not for use by children.

•

Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used near children.

• Unplug from outlet when not in use. Unplug and allow to cool before

putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning.

• Do not operate any damaged appliance. Do not operate with a damaged

cord or plug, or after the appliance malfunctions, or has been dropped or damaged in any manner . Contact consumer relations for return authorization, examination, repair or adjustment.

• The use of accessory attachments not recommended by Toastmaster Inc.

may cause injuries.

• Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.

• Do not use outdoors or while standing in a damp area.

• Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated oven.

• Do not use appliance for other than intended use.

• To disconnect, turn all controls to “OFF,” then remove plug from wall

outlet.

• Extreme caution must be used when moving any pot or pan containing

hot oil or liquids from this appliance.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION: A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of

personal injury resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Extension cords are available from local hardware stores and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If an extension cord is required, special care and caution is necessary. Also the cord must be: (1) marked with an electrical rating of 125 V and at least 15 A, 1875 W, and (2) the cord must be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.

POLARIZED PLUG: This appliance has a polarized plug, (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature to reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit in 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.

ELECTRIC POWER: If the electric circuit is overloaded with other appliances, your appliance may not operate properly. It should be operated on a separate electrical circuit from other appliances.

Operating Instructions

Before using the buffet range for the first time, operate once to burn off residues on the heating elements. When doing this, we suggest using the high heat setting.

• Place the buffet range on a flat, smooth countertop surface. Be sure to

place it in a safe area. Make sure that the cord is not in a position where it can be pulled off the countertop. There should be at least 4-6 inches of space above and around the unit for proper air circulation.

CAUTION: NEVER OPERATE THE UNIT IN A TILTED POSITION, OR IF THE HEATING ELEMENT IS NOT PROPERLY RESTING IN PLACE.

• Plug the unit into electrical wall outlet. To operate either burner, adjust

the Variable Temperature Control to the desired heat setting. The Variable Temperature Control on the right side operates the right burner, and the control on the left side operates the left burner.

• The Power Indicator Light will illuminate and remain lit until the selected

temperature has been reached. The light will then cycle on and off until

temperature is turned off. For best results: Turn on the heating element for approximately 1 minute before placing a pot or pan on it.

• When finished, turn the Variable Temperature Control to the “OFF”

position. WARNING: BE SURE TO TURN HEATING ELEMENT OFF COMPLETELY AND UNPLUG AFTER EACH USE. NEVER LEAVE PLUGGED IN WHILE IT IS NOT IN USE.

FOR BEST RESULTS

•

It is recommended to use pots or pans that are essentially the same size

as the heating element. A pot or pan should always be placed on the cen-

ter o f t h e heating element. NOTE: When using both burners at the same time, try not to use pots or pans that are bigger than the burners. This will ensure that both burners can distribute their heat properly.

•

The buffet range works similarly to a stovetop element and features a

full range of heating options. Use the burner on the left (1000 watts)

for quick heating tasks such as boiling water. Use the burner on the

right (500 watts) for slow cooking or heating precooked foods.

ALWAYS TURN HEATING ELEMENT OFF AND UNPLUG WHEN NOT IN USE. CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

TO CLEAN: Turn the buffet range completely off and allow to cool

completely before cleaning. CAUTION: NEVER IMMERSE THIS PRODUCT IN WATER OR ANY OTHER

LIQUID. NEVER USE STEEL WOOL OR ABRASIVE CLEANERS, AS THEY MAY SCRATCH THE SURFACES OR DAMAGE THE UNIT.

The Base Unit, Heating Elements and Drip Pans may be wiped with a damp soft cloth or sponge. The Drip Pan may be reached by lifting and tilting the Heating Elements. A mild dishwashing soap may be used to remove food spills on the Base Unit and the Drip Pans. Any soap residue should be wiped clean with a damp cloth or sponge.

TO STORE: Unplug the unit and allow it to cool completely before storing. Store the unit in its box or in a clean, dry place. Never wrap the cord tightly around the appliance. Do not put stress on the cord where it enters the unit, as this could cause it to crack and break.
