IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed

including the following:

1. Read all instructions.

2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles

or knobs.

3. To protect against risk of electrical

shock, do not immerse appliance, cord,

or plug in water or other liquid.

4. Close supervision is necessary when

any appliance is used by or near

children.

5. Unplug from outlet when not in use

and before cleaning. Allow to cool

before putting on or taking off parts,

and before cleaning the appliance.

6. Do not operate any appliance with a

damaged cord or plug, or after the

appliance malfunctions or is dropped

or damaged in any manner. Call our

toll-free customer service number for

information on examination, repair,

or adjustment.

7. Do not use outdoors.

8. The use of attachments not

recommended or sold by the

appliance manufacturer for use

with this model may cause fire,

electric shock, or injury.

9. Do not let cord hang over edge of

table or counter or touch hot surfaces,

including stove.

10. Do not place on or near a hot gas or

electric burner, or in a heated oven.

11. Extreme caution must be used when

moving an appliance containing hot oil

or other hot liquids.

12. Do not use appliance for other than

intended purpose.

13. To disconnect, remove plug from wall

outlet.

14. For units with detachable cooking

plates, be sure they are secured before

cooking.

This appliance 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 grounded 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.

To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do

not use another high-wattage appliance on

the same circuit with this appliance.

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.

It is not recommended to 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.

w WARNING

Cleaning

1. Unplug grill from outlet and allow to

cool.

2. Wipe cooking grids with a paper

towel to remove drippings. Use

a plastic spatula to scrape away

cooked-on food or grease.

3. To remove grids for cleaning, pull

tab down to

release and

remove upper

grid. Then, pull

tabs and lift

up lower grid.

4. Grids, drip tray, and spatula are

dishwasher-safe.

5. Do not use steel wool or any type

of abrasive cleaner to clean the grill,

since it will damage the nonstick

cooking grids and void the warranty.

6. Replace cooking grids and ensure

they are locked into place. ALWAYS

replace LOWER cooking grid first.

Repeat with UPPER grid.

7. Use a clean, damp cloth to wipe

clean the outside of the grill.

Helpful Tips and Hints

ALWAYS PREHEAT FOR 6 MINUTES

BEFORE USING.

•

Read the Use and Care Guide before

using the contact grill.

•

Use cooking spray for convenient,

stick-free cooking. Or if you prefer,

brush cooking grids with vegetable

oil before preheating.

•

Use plastic utensils on the nonstick

cooking grid. Do not use metal

utensils since they will damage the

nonstick surface.

•

Thicker sandwiches may shift when

the lid is closed. Use a plastic

spatula to reposition. There is no

need to press down on the handle.

The weight of the cover will grill the

top of the sandwich.

•

Cleanup is easy! Let the grill cool

down; then wipe cooking grids with

damp paper towel. Grids may also

be washed in the dishwasher.
