Notes on the Plug
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way.
Notes on the Cord

• A. A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord) is to be provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
• B. Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.
• C. If a long detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used :

1. The marked electrical rating of the cord or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance;
2. If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounding-type3-wire cord;
3. The longer cord should be arranged so that it does not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.

Plasticizer Warning
CAUTION: To prevent Plasticizers from migrating to the finish of the countertop or tabletop or other furniture, place NON-PLASTIC coasters or place mats between the appliance and the finish of the countertop or tabletop. Failure to do so may cause the finish to darken; permanent blemishes may occur or stains can appear.

6. For stubborn food particles, loosen them with a plastic cleaning pad. Avoid hard scouring on the non-stick finish as this may cause surface scratches. Do not use steel wool, scouring pads, or abrasive cleaners on any part of the Grill. Clean this grill after each use.

Hints For Care and Use of Non-Stick Surface

• To avoid scratching the non-stick surface, do not stack objects on the grill cooking plates.
• CAUTION: DO NOT USE COOKING SPRAYS. THEY CAN CAUSE A BUILD-UP ON THE COOKING
• PLATES AND MAY AFFECT THE NON-STICK PERFORMANCE OF THE PRODUCT.
• Use medium to low heat for best cooking results. Very high temperatures can cause discolouration and shorten the life span of any non-stick surface. If higher temperatures are necessary, preheat on medium heat for a few minutes.
• For best results and preserve the non-stick coating longer, use nylon, plastic, wooden or rubber utensils. Never cut food on the Grill.
• Remove stubborn stains with a plastic scouring pad and mild dishwashing liquid;
• DO NOT USE STEEL WOOL as it will damage the non-stick surface of the cooking plates.
• The grill plate is dishwasher safe. For best results, place in the top rack of your dishwasher to clean.

Steps For Stain Removal and Proper Care of Your Non-Stick Coating

1. Identify stained areas on the cooking surface and sprinkle some baking soda on the stains.

2. Moisten the baking soda to get a paste-like texture by adding some water.

3. Let the paste stand for a few minutes on the stains (not more than an hour).

4. Rub with a soft damp cloth or lightly scrub with a plastic scouring pad, wipe clean and dry thoroughly.
   NOTE: Do not rub vigorously when using a plastic scouring pad and NEVER use a metal scouring pad as this may damage the non-stick coating.

5. Repeat the cycle once again if necessary. The performance and non-stick properties of the non‑stick coating will not be affected due to stains.
