NOTICE: This appliance is not intended to melt wax, gels,
plastics, or other materials for making candles or for
other hobbyist activities or in any commercial or business
application. Using this appliance for purposes different
fromthosespeciedintheinstructionmanualmaycause
damage to the appliance and will void the warranty.
How to Use
NOTICE: Avoid using no stick cooking sprays as they may
cause the cooking surface to become tacky. In addition, use
heat-resistant nylon, plastic, wooden, or rubber utensils
to turn, stir, or remove food when not using the steam/fry
basket. Do not use metal utensils as they may scratch the
nonstick surface.
1. Place multi-cooker on a dry, level, heat-resistant surface
away from the wall and the edge. Do not let the cord
hang or drape over the edge of the counter or table
within reach of children. Remove the cover from the multi-cooker.
NOTICE: To prevent possible heat damage to your countertop, place a heat-resistant
counter protector, such as aluminum foil, under the multi-cooker; take care not to
place the foil under the legs.
2. Insert the heat control probe into the multi-cooker so the two electrical pins on the
appliance are fully inserted into the heat control. Then attach the magnetic cord
to the heat control by aligning the magnetic plug end with the two electrical pins
located on the back of the heat control (Fig. E).
Due to the fact that the magnetic plug end is polarized, it is intended to be attached
to the heat control only one way. The printed patent information on the plug end
should be facing up. The daisy and cautionary language should be facing the counter.
When properly aligned and positioned correctly, the plug end will magnetically
attach itself to the heat control.
IMPORTANT: The magnetic cord was designed to detach easily from the heat
control. As a result, if it is bumped or touched during use, it could detach and cause
the multi-cooker to stop heating. Avoid contact with magnetic cord during opera-
tion. If contact occurs, verify that the magnetic cord is still properly connected to
the heat control.
3. Using the index below, determine the type of cooking method desired and turn to the referenced page.
4. Plug the multi-cooker into a 120VAC electrical outlet only. Preheat multi-cooker as indicated by the cooking method and follow the
cooking instructions. During cooking, the pilot light will go on and off indicating temperature is being maintained.
NOTE: Occasionally you may hear a pop or clicking sound while the multi-cooker is preheating. This is normal and a sign of fast
heatup.Youmayalsonoticethissoundastheunitcoolsdown.Whenusingthemulti-cookerforthersttime,aslightodororlight
smoking may occur as manufacturing residue evaporates. This is normal.
5. When cooking is complete, turn heat control to OFF. Remove plug from wall outlet and then remove magnetic plug end from the heat
control. Allow to cool completely before removing the heat control from multi-cooker and before cleaning.
