Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Contact consumer support.
The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may cause injuries.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This product is for household use only.

GROUNDED PLUG
As a safety feature, this product is equipped with a grounded plug, which will only fit into a three-prong outlet. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature. Improper connection of the grounding conductor may result in the risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded.

TAMPER-RESISTANT SCREW
Warning: This appliance is equipped with a tamper-resistant screw to prevent removal of the outer cover. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not attempt to remove the outer cover. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Repair should be done only by authorized service personnel.

ELECTRICAL CORD

A short power cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
If a long detachable power cord or extension cord is used:
- The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and
- The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
- Outdoor extension cords should be used with outdoor use products and are surface marked with the suffix letter “W” and with a tag stating, “SUITABLE FOR USE WITH OUTDOOR APPLIANCES”.
- The extension cord should be kept dry and off the ground.
- Store product indoors when not in use – out of reach of children.
- Do not clean this product with a water spray or the like. Note: If the power cord is damaged, it should be replaced by qualified personnel; in Latin America, by an authorized service center.

Plug into standard electrical outlet. Align desired temperature setting with indicator light. Place lid securely on grill. Allow grill to preheat to desired temperature – for approximately 10 minutes.
Carefully remove lid and place food onto grill; cover for most foods. Cook until done, turning at least once halfway through cooking time for most food. Adjust temperature as needed.
Tip: You can control moisture of foods, to some extent, by opening or closing lid vent. Turn lid handle / vent clockwise to open vent for drier cooking. Turn counterclockwise to hold in moisture for moister meats. Light on temperature control probe will cycle on and off as grill thermostat maintains proper temperature. This is normal operation.

USING INDOORS
