When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or injury to persons, including the following: Other Consumer Safety Information This appliance is intended for household use only. w WARNING Electrical Shock Hazard: This product is provided with a polarized plug (one wide blade) to reduce the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only one way into a polarized 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. 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. An extension cord should be connected to the appliance first, before it is plugged into the outlet. To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do not use another high-wattage appliance on the same circuit with this appliance. Do not store grill vertically on side or back. Always use an oven mitt to protect hand when opening the grill.3 Kickstand Parts and Features Handle Lid Top Plate Release Button Drain Spout *To order parts: US: 1.800.851.8900 www.hamiltonbeach.com Canada: 1.800.267.2826 Mexico:
