IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles and hot pads or knobs.
To protect against electric shock, do not immerse cord, plugs, or the hotplate in or under water or other liquid. See instructions for cleaning.
Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow it to cool before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning the appliance.
Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions, or has been damaged in any manner. Return appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair or adjustment.
The use of accessory attachments not recommended by appliance manufacturer may cause injuries.
Do not use outdoors.
Do not let cord hang over the edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot oil or other hot liquids.
If the plug gets hot, please call a qualified electrician.
Do not use this appliance for other than intended use.
Use extreme caution when removing the drip pan or disposing of hot grease.
Do not clean hotplate with metal scouring pads. Using abrasive materials to clean will damage the ceramic non-stick coating.
To ensure safe operation, oversized utensils or food must not be inserted onto the hotplate.
A fire may occur if this appliance is covered or touching flammable material, including curtains, draperies, walls, etc. when in operation.
Condensation and a grease deposit may form around the ceramic surface and the air and steam outlets. This is normal.
CAUTION: Never leave the hotplate unattended when in use.
Extreme caution should be exercised when using containers other than hotplate proof metal, glass or ceramic.
Do not store any materials other than the manufacturer’s recommended accessories on the hotplate when not in use.
Do not place any of the following materials on the hotplate: paper, cardboard, plastic and the like.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified person to avoid a hazard.
WARNING: the temperature of accessible surfaces may be high when the appliance is operating.
Appliances are not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate remote-control system.
This appliance is for household use only.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
WARNING: If the surface is cracked, switch off the appliance to avoid the possibility of electric shock.
When cleaning the ceramic surface or griddle attachment, do not use metallic fabric or metallic infused fabric. Sharp utensils should not be used.
Do not crush or fold the ceramic surface.
Do not cook on broken cook-top – If cook-top should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cook-top and create a risk of electric shock.
Clean cooktop with caution – If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid steam burns; some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
Do not place metallic objects such as knives, forks, spoons and lids on the cooking surface, since they can get hot.
To reduce the risk of fire, do not place any heating or cooking appliance beneath the appliance.
To reduce the risk of fire, do not mount the unit over or near any portion of a heating or cooking appliance.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not mount over a sink.
To reduce the risk of fire, do not store anything directly on top of the appliance surface when the appliance is in operation.
Always attach plug to appliance first, then plug cord in the wall outlet. To disconnect, turn any control to “off,” then remove plug from wall outlet.
This appliance is not intended for deep frying foods.
CAUTION: Do not use an extension cord.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY

3-PRONG PLUG INSTRUCTIONS

For your personal safety, this appliance must be grounded. This appliance is equipped with a power supply cord having a 3-prong grounding plug. To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged into a mating 3 prong, grounding type, wall receptacle, grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70 latest edition and all local codes and ordinances. If a mating wall receptacle is not available, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to have a properly grounded, 3-prong, wall receptacle installed by a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS

A short power cord is provided to reduce the risks of tangling or tripping over a long cable. Extension cords can be used if care is taken in their use.

The electrical rating of the extension cord must be at least equal to that of the appliance. If the electrical rating of the extension cord is too low, it may overheat and catch fire.
The resulting extended cord should be positioned so that it does not hang from the counter or table where children might pull or trip over it.
