Other Consumer Safety Information
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed
including the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles
or knobs.
3. To protect against risk of electrical
shock, do not immerse appliance, cord,
or plug in water or other liquid.
4. Close supervision is necessary when this
appliance is used by or near children.
5. Unplug from outlet when not in use and
before cleaning. Allow to cool before
putting on or taking off parts, and before
cleaning the appliance.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a
damaged cord or plug, or after the
appliance malfunctions or is dropped or
damaged in any manner. Call our toll-free
customer service number for information
on examination, repair, or adjustment.
7. The use of accessory attachments
not recommended by the appliance
manufacturer may cause injuries.
8. Do not use outdoors.
9. Do not let cord hang over edge of table
or counter, or touch hot surfaces,
including stove.
10. Do not place on or near a hot gas or
electric burner, or in a heated oven.
Do not use this unit near oven, heater,
or fireplace.
11. Extreme caution must be used when
moving an appliance containing hot oil
or other hot liquids.
12. The drip tray slides in for storage. Do
not use grill with drip tray attached for
storage. To use, remove drip tray and
place on counter under grill.
13. To disconnect, remove plug from wall
outlet.
14. Do not use appliance for other than
intended purpose.
This appliance is intended for household
use only.
WARNING! Shock Hazard: This product
is provided with either a polarized (one
wide blade) or grounded (3-prong) plug
to reduce the risk of electric shock. The
plug fits only one way into a polarized or
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 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. If the
appliance is of the grounding type, the
extension cord should 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 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.
It is not recommended to 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: Escaping steam may cause
burns.

Tips for Easy Grilling
•
ALWAYS PREHEAT THE GRILL
6 MINUTES BEFORE USING.
•
Read the Grill Use and Care Guide
before starting to grill.
•
Grill cooking is so easy because
you can brown meats, cook onions,
grill vegetables, “stir-fry” dishes,
steam fish, and toast sandwiches.
•
Use the grill to “prep and cook”
foods for traditional range-top
recipes: brown ground beef for
spaghetti sauce or stir-fry beef
strips for a Chinese dish. Since the
grill cooks top and bottom at the
same time, there’s no need to stir
while cooking.
•
Cook “guilt-free” French fries
without the extra oil or make perfect
French toast that doesn’t need to
be turned during cooking.
•
Use vegetable cooking spray for
convenient, stick-free grilling. Or if
you prefer, brush grill surfaces with
vegetable oil before preheating.
•
Use plastic utensils on the nonstick
grill surfaces. Do not use metal
utensils since they will damage the
nonstick surface.
•
Plan ahead for quick meals by
freezing boneless chicken breasts
and burger patties for future meals.
Place individual servings on a
baking sheet and freeze. When
frozen, place in plastic bags. To
grill, see the “Grilling Chart” on
page 5.
•
Cleanup is easy! Let grill cool down.
Wipe grill surfaces with damp paper
towel or dish cloth.
IF YOU LIVE IN A HIGH-ALTITUDE
AREA:
