WARNING: IN CASE OF FIRE
Immediately disconnect the grill from its electrical
power supply.
WARNING: IN CASE OF FIRE
Use ONLY fire extinguishers that are filled with CO2,
which is suitable for use on grease fires and electrically powered equipment. Do not attempt to fight a
grease fire by pointing the nozzle of the fire extinguisher directly at the burning grease. The force will
cause the burning grease to be sprayed to adjacent
equipment, making it difficult to contain the fire.
