IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS:

PLEASE READ AND SAVE THIS INSTRUCTION AND CARE MANUAL.

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

• Read all instructions.
• Remove all bags and packaging from the appliance before use.
• Never leave the appliance unattended when in use.
• Make sure the appliance is cleaned thoroughly before using.
• Do not use the appliance for anything other than its intended use. For household use only. Do not use outdoors.

• For maintenance other than cleaning, please contact StoreBound directly at 1-800-898-6970 Monday–Friday or by email at [email protected].
• Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot oil or other hot liquids.
• Refrain from using attachments that are not recommended by the appliance manufacturer, as this may result in fire, electric shock, or personal injury.
• Do not let the power cord touch hot surfaces or hang over the edges of tables or counters.
• This appliance can be used by persons with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities or a lack of experience or knowledge, if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved.
• Always be sure to unplug the appliance from the outlet before moving, cleaning, storing, and when not in use.
• StoreBound shall not accept liability for damages caused by improper use of the appliance.
• Never touch the Base while the Family Size Skillet is in use.
• Do not use the appliance if any of the parts are damaged.
• Do not place the appliance on or near a hot gas burner, hot electric burner, or in a heated oven.
• Do not deep fry food in the Family Size Skillet.
• To avoid injury, we recommend allowing the Family Size Skillet to return to room temperature before detaching the Control Probe from the Base.
• Allow the Family Size Skillet to cool completely before moving, cleaning, or disassembling.
• Always attach the Control Probe to the Family Size Skillet first before plugging the appliance into the outlet. Before unplugging, make sure the Family Size Skillet is turned to “Off”, then remove the plug.
• Be cautious when moving the appliance if there are hot liquids inside.
• Do not touch the Base or Non-Stick Pan when the Family Size Skillet is hot. Use the Handles.
• Improper use of the Family Size Skillet can result in property damage or even personal injury.
• This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not completely fit in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way.
• The longer cord should be arranged so that it does not drape over the countertop or table, where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.

PARTS & FEATURES

Using the Family Size Skillet

TO BEGIN USING THE SKILLET

Clean the Family Size Skillet and all of its components prior to use (photo A). DO NOT use the electric Skillet near water or other liquids, with wet hands, or while standing on a wet surface. Make sure the Handles are securely fastened to the Base before each use. Do not touch the Base or Nonstick Pan without heat-protective cooking gloves while the Family Size Skillet is in use.

TO ASSEMBLE

After removing the Skillet and Lid from packaging, attach the Knob to the Glass Lid with a screwdriver. Attach just enough so that the knob does not become loose, but take care to NOT overtighten the Knob (photo B).

1. Set the Base on a clean, stable, and dry surface (photo A).
2. Unwind the power cord to the preferred length. Inspect the cord for any signs of damage or significant wear (photo B).
3. Plug the Control Probe Connector into the Control Probe Socket located on the Base of the Skillet. Be sure to properly align the Connector’s single prong with the middle hole before pushing in the Control Probe connector (photo C).
4. Ensure the Temperature Control Dial located on the Control Probe is set to Off, then plug the Skillet into an outlet or power supply (photo D).
5. When ready to cook, turn the Temperature Control Dial clockwise to Low. Do not begin cooking on a high temperature setting, as this may cause food to splatter or even burn when placed on the nonstick Cooking Surface (photo E).
6. Place ingredients onto the Cooking Surface. Allow to cook for several minutes. Slowly increase the temperature until it reaches the appropriate level for the food being cooked (photo F).
7. When finished cooking, turn the Temperature Control Dial to Off. Wait for the Skillet to cool completely before cleaning (photo D).

TEMPERATURE SETTINGS GUIDE

The Temperature Control Dial has three heat levels. The Indicator Light located on the Control Probe will glow orange when the Family Size Skillet is turned on.

Note: To increase the heat level or decrease the cooking time, leave the Glass Lid on the Skillet. When placed over the Skillet, the Glass Lid locks in heat and moisture, allowing food to cook at a faster pace. This also prevents the food from drying out.

CERAMIC NONSTICK

Metal utensils may damage the ceramic nonstick coating. To avoid damaging the Skillet, use only wood, nylon, or silicone cooking utensils when preparing your food.

Cleaning & Maintenance

CLEANING THE CERAMIC FAMILY SIZE SKILLET

1. Turn the Temperature Control Dial to the Off position before unplugging and cleaning. Then unplug the Control Probe and store it in a safe, dry place. Allow the Cooking Surface to cool completely before attempting to clean.
2. The Family Size Skillet is NOT dishwasher safe and should never be submerged in water; it must be hand-washed.
3. To clean, run a small amount of warm, soapy water into the Skillet and gently scrub with a sponge or cloth until clean. Carefully rinse the Skillet so that no extra soap remains, taking care to prevent water from entering the Control Probe Socket.
4. Wash the Glass Lid in warm, soapy water.
5. Wipe down the Base with a damp cloth.
6. Thoroughly dry the Family Size Skillet before storing.

CAUTION: Never use abrasive and/or metal cleaning agents to clean the appliance, as this may damage the Skillet’s ceramic nonstick coating.
