SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
THIS APPLIANCE IS FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY. No user- serviceable parts inside. Do not attempt to service this product. A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from entanglement or tripping over a longer cord. AN EXTENSION CORD MAY BE USED WITH CARE; HOWEVER, THE MARKED ELECTRICAL RATING SHOULD BE AT LEAST AS GREAT AS THE ELECTRICAL RATING OF THE GRIDDLE. The extension cord should not be allowed to drape over the counter or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or unintentionally tripped over.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug fits a polarized outlet only one way. This is a safety feature intended to help reduce the risk of electrical shock. 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 attempt to modify the plug in any way.
ELECTRIC POWER: If electric circuit is overloaded with other appliances, griddle may not operate properly. Griddle must be operated on a separate circuit from other operating appliances.
CAUTION: Some countertops are more sensitive to heat, use care not to place griddle on surfaces where heat may cause damage.
