TMR_THP32WCAN_IB_27-4-04 4/27/04 5:07 PM Page 6 Cooking Other Foods in Your Hot Pot WARNING: DO NOT USE THE HOT POT TO HEAT OIL, OR TO MELT BUTTER. CAUTION: The Hot Pot is not suitable for heating solid foods unless liquids are added. Add liquids (e.g. water, milk, soup, etc.), or a mixture of liquids and solids (e.g. chili, stew, etc.).

TMR_THP32WCAN_IB_27-4-04 4/27/04 5:07 PM Page 7 Hints For Best Results ◆ If you have a choice between cooking for a short time at high temperature, or a longer time at a lower temperature, then, generally, the longer cooking time at the lower temperature will give better tasting results because cooking at a lower temperature lessens the likelihood of baking food onto the surfaces of the Hot Pot, or spattering food from the Hot Pot ◆ Milk, especially full-cream milk, has a propensity to boil over.
TMR_THP32WCAN_IB_27-4-04 4/27/04 5:07 PM Page 8 Insufficient Liquid WARNING: Do not plug in the Hot Pot unless it is filled at least to the MIN mark. Misuse of this kind will shorten the life of the element, it may bake food on to the surfaces of the Hot Pot, and/or spit the contents of the Hot Pot over the surface of the table or counter.
