Other Consumer Safety Information

This appliance is intended for household use only.
WARNING! Shock Hazard: This appliance has a polarized plug

(one wide blade) that reduces the risk of electric shock. The
plug fits only one way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat the
safety purpose of the plug by modifying the plug in any way or
by using an adapter. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, have an electrician replace
the outlet.

The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to
reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in or tripping over
a longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary, an approved
extension cord may be used. The electrical rating of the
extension cord must be equal to or greater than the rating of
the appliance. Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord
so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it
can be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over.

To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do not use another
high-wattage appliance on the same circuit with this appliance.

An extension cord should be connected to the appliance first,
before it is plugged into the outlet.

Always use grill on flat surface to ensure grease and oils drain
properly. Use caution when cleaning spilled hot grease. Use
caution when cooking and around splattering grease.

Always use drip tray and make sure it is resting on counter
directly under grill before use.

Never move grill when in use. Unplug unit and let cool before
moving.

Always use an oven mitt to protect hand when opening the grill.

CAUTION! Burn Hazard: Escaping steam may cause burns.

Helpful Tips

ALWAYS PREHEAT BEFORE USING.

• Read the Use and Care Guide before using the grill.

• Use cooking spray for convenient, stick-free cooking. Or if
you prefer, brush cooking plates with vegetable oil before
preheating.

• Use plastic utensils on the nonstick cooking plate. Do not
use metal utensils since they will damage the nonstick
surface.

• Thicker sandwiches may shift when the lid is closed. Use a
plastic spatula to reposition. There is no need to press down
on the handle. The weight of the cover will grill the top of
the sandwich.

• Cleanup is easy! Let the grill cool down; then wipe cooking
plates with damp paper towel.
