Other Consumer Safety Information

This appliance is intended for household use only.

w WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard: This appliance is provided

with a grounded (3-prong) plug to reduce the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only one way into a grounded 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 into the outlet, 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. The extension cord must be a grounding-type, 3-wire cord. 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 highwattage appliance on the same circuit with this appliance.

Do not leave this appliance unattended while in use.

w WARNING

Fire Hazard: To reduce risk of fire, do not allow

flammable materials such as curtains, draperies, walls, cabinets, backsplashes, and the like to touch any part of the grill or grilling surface when the grill is in operation. Place grill at least 6 inches (15.2 cm) away from walls, appliances, or any object which could be damaged by heat.

WHEN USING OUTDOORS:

w CAUTION

Electrical Shock Hazard: To ensure continued

protection against risk of electric shock, connect to properly grounded outlets only.

WHEN USING AN EXTENSION CORD OUTDOORS:

Base

Grill Plate

BEFORE FIRST USE: Wash the grill plate and base in hot, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not immerse power cord in water or other liquid.

Cord Receptacle

Variable-Heat Power Cord

Variable-Heat Power Cord Always make sure the power cord

is turned to MIN and unplugged from wall outlet before inserting or removing the power cord.

How to Grill

NOTE: Adding water to the base of the grill helps to reduce smoke and a mess when grilling foods higher in fat, such as burgers, steak, or chicken with skin. Drippings fall into the water and do not get baked on for easy cleanup.

1. Set base on countertop. Add

1 cup (237 ml) water to center of

base. Place grill plate on base.

5. When finished grilling, turn

control to MIN. Remove plug

from outlet and then from cord

receptacle.

2. Plug power cord into the cord

receptacle, and then plug into outlet. The indicator light on the power cord will glow.

GRILLING TIPS:

• Please remember that your grill plate is coated with a nonstick surface and that plastic utensils should always be used.

• If grilling vegetables, fish, or lean meat, spray the grilling surface with a cooking spray. If grilling meat with any amount of fat, or if the food has been marinated, there is no need to treat the grill plate.

• For best results, preheat the grill for 5 to 10 minutes before grilling.

3. Set temperature control dial to

desired heat setting. See chart on page 6. Preheat 5 to 10 minutes before grilling or until indicator light turns off.

4. Use only utensils which are

high heat-resistant (~450°F/ 232°C) and safe for nonstick surfaces. This will help prolong the life of the nonstick coating.

• Skewers are available in most large supermarkets. If using the disposable, wooden-type skewers, soak the skewers in water at least 10 minutes before threading on food. This prevents the skewer from scorching and makes a more attractive presentation.

• If using a marinade with oil, keep water in the base during grilling to reduce mess and smoke for easy cleanup.

NOTE: The variable-heat power cord offers heat settings from “MIN” and

Care and Cleaning

Grilling Guidelines

w WARNING

cleaning. Do not immerse cord or plug in water or any liquid.

1. Unplug grill from outlet and allow to cool. Carefully dispose of

any grease and any remaining water.

2. Wash the grill plate and base in hot, soapy water. Use a nylon

or plastic scouring pad and a nonabrasive liquid cleanser. Do not use metal scouring pads. Rinse and let dry.

3. DO NOT use the “SANI” setting when washing in the

dishwasher. “SANI” cycle temperatures could damage your product.

Electrical Shock Hazard. Disconnect power before

• Grilling Times: Recipe cooking times are estimates. Cooking

time will vary based on the temperature of the grill plate, the surrounding air, and the food itself. Watch food carefully while grilling and adjust the cooking time as necessary.

• Marinating Tips: Never marinate foods in metal containers for

extended lengths of time (2 or more hours). The acids in foods can react with metal, causing an unpleasant taste. Instead, use glass, ceramic, or plastic bag containers for marinating.

• Meat Safety Tip: To reduce the risk of spoiling, store meat in the

refrigerator until you’re ready to cook. Never thaw or marinate meat at room temperature, especially in warm climates.

• Food Safety Tip: Never use leftover marinade as a finishing sauce

on cooked foods. The leftover marinade must first be boiled for one to two minutes to kill any bacteria from the raw food that was marinated.

• Nonstick Grilling Tip: Without the use of oil, certain foods will

stick slightly to nonstick surfaces. This is easily prevented. Before turning on your grill, brush or spray the grill plates lightly with oil or nonstick cooking spray. (Never add oil or spray to a heated grill plate—this is dangerous.)

• Always read all safety information.
