IMPORTANT NOTICE
Your EDGE Electric Grill requires a full 20-amp electric power outlet to
operate properly. Running it on a lower current outlet/circuit breaker may
cause the grill and/or circuit to trip.
To prevent power loss:
• An exterior outlet with a standard 20-amp circuit breaker is recommended.
• Unplug any other electrical devices, like patio lights, powered by the exterior
outlet/circuit breaker before plugging in your grill.
If power is lost during use:
• Identify and unplug any other electrical devices that lost power at the same
time and reset the breaker.
• Try using a different electrical outlet, if available. Check your owner's manual
for recommended use of extension cords.
If your circuit breaker continues to trip during use, consult a qualified
electrician.

Controlling grease fires:
To aid in controlling grease fires use the following precautions:

grease fires.
