IMPORTANT NOTES
1. Your unit is equipped with a grounded, current-carrying 3 pronged plug which
will fit into any standard 3 pronged outlet. This is a safety feature. Electrical
connection must be a proper outlet for the 3 pronged cord. Before
connecting power, make sure the voltage and frequency correspond
to the data plate on the unit.
2. A short power cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from
accidents such as tripping, entanglement, etc.
-If a long cord set or extension cord is used:
(A) The marketed electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should
be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
(B) The longer 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
accidentally.
3. Call BroilKing Customer Service at 860-738-2200 with any questions or
service needs.
