Description

The Hamilton Beach indoor grill allows you to enjoy mouthwatering grilled food all year round. The spacious 90-square-inch nonstick cooking surface can hold up to six servings, making it the perfect size for gatherings with family and friends. This indoor grill, which has strong heating components, can cook the majority of items in only 10 minutes or less, making it ideal for hurried weekday meals.

Use it to grill lean meats, seafood, veggies, boneless chicken, hamburgers, and other foods. The Hamilton Beach indoor grill makes low-fat cooking simple since it is made to allow grease to flow away from the food as it cooks. Additionally, the handy slide-out drip tray is dishwasher safe. While cooking, the big handle provides a firm grip, and the floating hinges adapt to the thickness of the meal. The nonstick grill plates are simple to clean after use.

Other Consumer Safety Information

This appliance is intended for household use only.

WARNING: Electrical Shock Hazard: This appliance 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 grounding 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 as this appliance.
• An extension cord should be connected to the appliance first before it is plugged into the outlet.
• Always use the grill on a 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 a drip tray and make sure it is resting on the counter directly under the grill before use.
• Never move the grill when in use. Unplug the unit and let cool before moving.
• Always use an oven mitt to protect your hand when opening the grill.

CAUTION: Burn Hazard: Escaping steam may cause burns.

Helpful Tips

• Use plastic utensils on the nonstick cooking plate. Do not use metal utensils since they will damage the nonstick surface.
• Use a cooking spray for convenient, stick-free cooking. Or if you prefer, brush cooking plates with vegetable oil before preheating.
• Always preheat before using.
• 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 the cooking plates with a damp paper towel.
