important safeguards

Follow basic safety precautions, including:
1 The grill must only be used by or under the supervision of a responsible adult. Use
and store the grill out of reach of children.
2 Don't put the grill in liquid, don't use it in a bathroom, near water, or
outdoors.
3 Some parts aren't as hot as others, but they're all hot. Don't touch – use the
handle, and wear oven gloves (or use a folded towel).
4 Bread, oil, and other foods may burn. Don't use the grill near or below
curtains or other combustible materials, and watch it while in use.
5 Sit the grill on a stable, level, heat-resistant surface, near a power socket.
6 Route the cable so it doesn't overhang, and can't be tripped over or caught.
7 Don't wrap food in plastic film, polythene bags, or metal foil. You'll damage the grill
and you may cause a fire hazard.
8 Cook meat, poultry, and derivatives (mince, burgers, etc.) till the juices run clear.
Cook fish till the flesh is opaque throughout.
9 Unplug the grill after use, before moving and before cleaning.
11 Keep the grill and the cable away from hotplates, hobs or burners.
12 Don't use the grill for any purpose other than cooking food.
13 This appliance must not be operated by an external timer or remote control system.
14 Don't use the grill if it's damaged or malfunctions.
15 If the cable is damaged, return the grill, to avoid hazard.

use low fat spread – it may burn on to the grill.
