HOW TO USE YOUR SALTON PORTABLE COOKING RANGE

Any flat-bottomed pot or container that can be used on a conventional electric stove element can also be used on the Salton Portable Cooking Range. For maximum heat transfer, cookware that has a solid perfectly flat bottom is recommended. Cookware made from solid aluminum or some other material with an encapsulated aluminum base will provide the best results. Any cokware can be used to reheat but if maximum energy is required, such as boiling water, please use the recommended cookware.

1. Place the Portable Cooking Range onto a smooth, dry, flat surface.

Be sure that the Knobs are in the 'Off' position. Plug into any

120 Volt A.C. outlet.

2. Place filled cookware on the element.

Note: Do not preheat before using.

3. Turn Knob clockwise to desired setting. Each element is equipped with it's own 'On/Off' temperature Control Knob and Indicator Light. The

Indicator Light will glow and go ‘on’ and ‘off’ as the selected temperature is automatically maintained.

CARE AND CLEANING

1. Unplug unit and allow to cool.

2. Both the outside of the unit and the drip pan should be cleaned with a cloth or sponge dampened in warm soapy water. Clean the drip pan by raising the element slightly. NEVER USE ABRASIVE CLEANSERS.

3.

NEVER IMMERSE THIS UNIT IN WATER.

A short supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards of becoming entangled in or tripping over a long cord. Extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use. If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the detachable power-supply cord or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounded 3-wire cord. The extension cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or table top, where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.
