INTRODUCTION
Get ready to cook in all the best places! Your Cuisinart ® Electric Skillet can be
an extra burner on the kitchen counter or it can be used to make food right at
the table. The extra large nonstick cooking surface offers easy cleanup and
the chance to cook healthier lowfat meals. Simply adjust the temperature to
simmer soup, make pancakes, or fry up a family order of chicken fajitas. As a
grand finale, remove the cord and put Skillet and lid right in the dishwasher.

IMPORTANT GUIDELINES
• Do not use metal utensils. Metal utensils will damage the nonstick finish.
Use wooden or heat-proof plastic utensils.
• Do not use a metal knife or utensil to cut on the nonstick surface.
• Add only enough oil to coat the bottom of the Skillet. Do not use larger
amounts of oil.
• The steam vent in the cover should always be placed to the back of the
Skillet. Lift the lid from the back to the front to prevent steam burns.
• Use pot holders to lift lid or move Skillet.
• Do not lift or move Skillet while cooking.
• Never immerse the temperature probe in water or any other liquid.
• Temperature probe must always be in the “OFF” position before the unit
is unplugged.
