Other Consumer Safety Information This product 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. 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: Escaping steam may cause burns. To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do not use another highwattage appliance on the same circuit with this appliance. 840222302 ENv08.indd 3 3 6/4/14 10:03 AM
