Toastmaster TMHP4 - Manual (Page 8)

Insufficient Liquid
WARNING: Do not plug in the Hot Pot unless it is filled at least to the
MIN mark. Misuse of this kind will shorten the life of the element, it
may bake food on to the surfaces of the Hot Pot, and/or splatter the
contents of the Hot Pot over the surface of the table or counter.
CAUTION: If the Hot Pot does not contain sufficient liquid, the
thermostat will cycle ON and OFF to regulate the temperature, but
eventually the food will bake on to the surfaces of the Hot Pot, and
may be impossible to remove completely.
1. Unplug, then wait until the Hot Pot has cooled down fully before
attempting to remove the contents.
2. The Hot Pot is equipped with a self-resetting thermostat.
3. If the Hot Pot is left without liquid, and left ON for a long time,
the thermostat will cycle ON and OFF to regulate the
temperature, but the unit will not turn itself OFF. Unplug and let
the unit cool completely to allow the thermostat to reset. The Hot
Pot will then be ready for reuse.
