GROUNDED PLUG

To reduce the risk of electric shock this appliance has a grounded plug.

(2 blades and 1 pin) If the plug does not fit fully into the electrical outlet contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way or use an adaptor.

HOW TO USE YOUR 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 cookware 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 '0' position and plug into any

120 Volt A.C. outlet. Once the unit is plugged into the wall outlet the red indicator light will glow until it is unplugged.

2. Place filled cookware on element. Each element is equipped with it’s own Temperature Control Knob and Indicator Light.

3. Turn Control Knob (s) clockwise to desired setting. The green

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

IMPORTANT:

• DO NOT preheat before using.

• DO NOT switch on before cookware is placed on the element.

• The wattage of the small element is 600 watts and the large element is 900 watts.

4. 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.
