General Use & Care
NOTE: The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for damage or injury caused by
improper use of this appliance.
Be certain your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician in
accordance with applicable codes. To guarantee the electrical safety of this appliance,
continuity must exist between the appliance and an effective grounding system. It is
imperative that this basic safety requirement be met. The manufacturer cannot be held
responsible for damages caused by the lack or inadequacy of an effective grounding
system.
Installation, repair and maintenance work should be performed by an authorized service
technician. Work by unqualified persons could be dangerous and will void the warranty.
Before installation or service, disconnect the power supply to the work area by removing
the fuse, "tripping" the circuit breaker, or unplugging the unit.
Gasoline, lighter fluid or other flammable liquids and vapors should never be stored in the
area of this grill or any other appliance.
Do not store anything in the grill. Make sure food is not forgotten in the grill; forgotten items
could melt or catch fire when the appliance is turned on.
To prevent injuries, do not use accessories that are not recommended by the
manufacturer.
Before cleaning the appliance, "trip" the circuit breaker and allow the appliance to cool.
Always open the grill hood carefully, using only the handle - the hood may be hot.
Children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where any appliance is in use.
They should never be allowed to touch, sit or stand on any part of the appliance.
Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above the grill or in the grill. Children
climbing on the appliance to reach these items could be seriously injured.
Wear proper clothing when operating appliances. Loose-fitting or hanging garments
should never be worn while using the grill.
Do not leave the grill unattended while in use.
Do not use water on grease fires! A violent steam explosion may result. Instead, smother
the fire with a dry chemical or foam fire extinguisher.
