OTHER CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION

This appliance is intended for household use only.
WARNING! Shock Hazard: If the plug on this appliance does not fit in your outlet, do not modify
the plug, and do not use an adaptor. Have an electrician replace the obsolete 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 a grounded type 3-wire
extension cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to or
greater than the rating of the grill. 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 acciden-
tally tripped over.
To avoid an electrical circuit overload do not use another high wattage appliance on the same
circuit with the grill.
An extension cord should be connected to the appliance first, before it is plugged into the outlet.
CAUTION: Escaping steam can burn. Always use a hot mitt to protect hand when opening the
grill.
