SPECIAL CARE:
1. A spotted white film may form on the non-stick surface. This is a buildup of
minerals from foods or water and is not a defect in the surface. To remove,
soak a soft cloth in lemon juice or vinegar and rub on the finish. Wash the non-
stick surface thoroughly, rinse and dry. Recondition the non-stick surface with
cooking oil.
2. The non-stick surface may also become stained from improper cleaning or
overheating. To remove stains, clean the non-stick surface by the following
method. Combine 1 cup of water and 1 tablespoon of ONE of the following
cleaners: Dip-It coffee pot destainer, automatic dishwasher detergent or dry
oxygen bleach crystals. USE ONLY ONE OF THE ABOVE CLEANERS; DO
NOT COMBINE. Preheat the skillet to 225 ° F. Wearing rubber gloves, dip a
sponge into the water mixture and wipe over the surface.
Continue cleaning procedure until mixture is gone. Turn the skillet to “OFF” and
allow it to cool. Remove the temperature control. Scour the non-stick surface with
hot soapy water and a non-metal scouring pad. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
Recondition the non-stick surface with cooking oil before using.
