Other Consumer Safety Information

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:

The Extension service will have detailed information about cooking for your area. To locate the Cooperative Extension service in your county, please visit: http://www.csrees.usda.gov/Extension/
