Additional Important Safeguards

1. CAUTION: This appliance generates heat and escaping steam dur-

ing use. Proper precautions must be taken to prevent the risk of
burns, fires or other damage to persons or property.

2. All users of this appliance must read and understand this Owner's
Manual before operating or cleaning this appliance.

3. The cord to this appliance should be plugged into a 120V AC ground­ed-type electrical outlet only.

4. When using this appliance, provide adequate air space above and
on all sides for air circulation. Do not allow this appliance to touch
clothing, dish towels or other flammable materials during use.

5. If this appliance begins to malfunction during use, immediately
unplug cord from outlet. Do not use or attempt to repair the malfunc­tioning appliance.

Special Considerations for Outdoor Use:

6. Do not use Grill if you or the grill are wet or damp, or when you are
standing in a wet or damp area. If it starts to rain while operating
the Grill, immediately turn the Temperature Control Probe to OFF.
Then unplug the Grill from the electrical outlet and move the Grill
indoors until the rain has stopped. Do not attempt to use Grill again
until the Grill and Power Cord are wiped completely dry.

7. Do not use or place Grill in an area where it can become wet (near
pool or hoses, within sprinkler range, etc.)

8. Do not operate Grill in a high-traffic area.

9. After outdoor use, unplug from electrical outlet and allow Grill to
cool completely.

10. We recommend storing Grill indoors or, if unable to store indoors,
always cover Grill with protective cover. Always keep out of the
reach of children.

11. We do not recommend the use of an extension cord. However, if it
is necessary to use an extension cord while operating the Grill out­doors, use only one grounding-type, three-wire extension cord (and
it must be specifically for outdoor use and marked with suffix letters
“W-A” and with a tag stating “Suitable for Use with Outdoor
Appliances”). Be sure the plug from the Grill is fully inserted into the
extension cord and that the connection is kept dry and off the
ground.

12. Do not clean the Grill with a water spray or the like.

3-Prong Grounded Type Plug

This appliance is equipped with a grounded-type 3-wire cord (3-prong
plug). This plug will only fit into an electrical outlet made for a 3-prong
plug. This is a safety feature. If the plug should fail to fit the outlet, con­tact an electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to modi­fy the plug in any way.

Extension Cord Use

We do not recommend the use of an extension cord; however, if an
extension cord is required, special care and caution are necessary. The
cord must be a 14 Gauge, Three (3) Conductor type marked with an elec­trical rating of 120V, 15A, 1875W, and arranged so that it will not drape
over the countertop or table top where it can be pulled on by children or
tripped over accidentally.

Electrical Power

If the electrical circuit is overloaded, the circuit breaker will trip and your
appliance will not operate. It should be operated on a 20amp electrical
circuit separate from other appliances.

Temperature Control Probe

Use only the Temperature Control Probe (P/N 21006B) supplied with this
product. Using any other type of Temperature Control Probe may cause
fire, electric shock, or injury.

CAUTION: The Temperature Control Probe is designed to yield precise
results. Use care not to drop, hit or impact it against hard surfaces.
Never pull on the cord of the Temperature Control Probe. Always grip
the body of the Temperature Control Probe when handling.
