IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

20 Do not cover any part of the baker with metal foil. This will cause

overheating of the baker.

When using electrical appliances, these basic safety precautions
should always be followed, including the following:

1 Read all instructions.

2 The exterior of the baker will become very hot during use. Do not

touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs. Do not place anything on
top of the baker.

3 To protect against electric shock, do not immerse cord, plug, or any

parts of the baker in water or other liquids.

4 Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used near

children. This appliance is not recommended for use by children.

5 Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool

before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning.

6 Do not operate appliance with damaged cord or plug or after the

appliance malfunctions, or has been damaged in any manner. Return
appliance to the nearest Authorized Service Center for examination,
repair, or adjustment.

7 The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance

manufacturer may cause hazard or injury.

8 Do not use outdoors.

9 Do not let the cord hang over the edge of table or counter, or touch

hot surfaces, including the stove.

10 Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated

baker.

11 Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing

hot oil or other hot liquids.

12 Turn the Timer Knob to the OFF position to turn the baker off, then

remove the plug. Always hold the plug, never pull the cord.

13 Do not use appliance for other than intended use.

14 Oversized foods or metal utensils must not be inserted into baker, as

they may create a fire or risk of electric shock.

15 A fire may occur if the baker is covered, touching, or near flammable

material, including curtains, draperies, walls, and the like, when
in operation. Do not store any item on top of the baker when in
operation.

21 Use extreme caution when removing trays or disposing of hot grease

or other hot liquids.

22 When operating the baker, leave at least four inches of space on all

sides of the baker to allow for adequate air circulation.

23 Always wear protective, insulated baker mitts when inserting or

removing items from the hot baker.

24 This appliance has a tempered, safety glass viewing window. The

glass is stronger than ordinary glass and more resistant to breakage.
Tempered glass can break, but the pieces will not have sharp edges.
Avoid scratching viewing window or nicking edges. If the viewing
window has a scratch or nick, contact our toll-free customer service
line before using the baker.

25 If using foil to cover oven-safe cooking containers, be sure that the foil

is securely wrapped over the container to keep it from coming in close
contact with the heating elements, which cause overheating or fire.

26 In the event that food in the baker should catch fire keep the lid

closed. Turn the Timer to the OFF position and unplug from the
outlet. Wait until the fire goes out before opening the lid.

About Wolfgang Puck ............................................................... 4

In the beginning, there was
Wolfgang Puck. There were cooks
and there were kitchens and there
were people eating food, but the
world had never seen anything
like Spago — with its California
cuisine, its casual elegance, and its
chef whose genuine warmth and
love of craft redefined the dining
experience. And they came — from
LA and from everywhere — to
experience the future. Wolfgang
Puck shaped the modern culinary
landscape: he was the first celebrity
chef, the inventor of fusion cuisine,
the first in farm-to-table. His work
is inspired by California living, and
an insistence on only the freshest
ingredients. From his legendary
fine dining icons, his entrepreneurial

spirit has built an empire — from
dining, to catering, to products for the home — touching the lives of millions
around the globe. Today, as always, Chef Puck is earnestly, restlessly, tirelessly
at work behind the scenes inventing what’s next. He is driven by a genuine
love of his craft, a passion for what’s possible, and its potential to change the
world.
