GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of
an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the
risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire
for the electric current.
This appliance is equipped with a power cord
having a grounding wire with a grounding plug.
The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is
properly installed and grounded.
Consult a qualified electrician or service technician
if the grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded.
If the outlet is a standard 2-prong wall outlet,
it is your personal responsibility and obligation
to have it replaced with a properly grounded
3-prong wall outlet.
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove
the third (ground) prong from the power cord.
We do not recommend using an extension cord
with this appliance. If the power cord is too short,
have a qualified electrician or service technician
install an outlet near the appliance.
(See EXTENSION CORDS section.)
For best operation, plug this appliance into its
own electrical outlet to prevent flickering of lights,
blowing of fuse or tripping of circuit breaker.
WARNING: Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.

GRILLING AND ROTISSERIE SAFETY
Use the black metal tray when grilling or using
the rotisserie. Use the tray as a cooking pan when
grilling or as a drip pan for the rotisserie food.
Do not use the glass turntable when grilling or
using the rotisserie.
Do not cover the black metal tray with metal foil.
This will cause arcing in the oven.
Any non-metal, oven-safe dish can be used when
grilling or when using the rotisserie in the oven.
Place food, oven-safe cookware or the browner
rack directly on the black metal tray when grilling.
The oven and door will get hot when grilling or
using the rotisserie.
Cookware will become hot when grilling or using
the rotisserie. Pot holders or oven mitts will be
needed to handle the cookware.
Do not use paper towels or coverings, containers
or cooking/roasting bags made of foil or other
reflective material, plastic, wax or paper when
grilling or using the rotisserie.
Do not place food directly against the top or
bottom heating elements.
Use of the browner rack:
— Place the dish directly on the rack.
— Remove the rack from the oven when not in use.
— Use pot holders or oven mitts when handling
the rack. It may be hot.
— Be sure that the rack is positioned properly
inside the oven to prevent product damage.
— Do not cover the rack or any part of the oven
with metal foil. This will cause overheating of
the oven.
During and after use, do not touch, or let
clothing, pot holders or other flammable
materials contact the top heating element or
guard. These surfaces may be hot enough
to burn even though they are dark in color.
Allow sufficient time for cooling first.
Remove cookware completely from the oven
before turning food.
NOTE: A rotisserie safety feature prevents the use
of other cooking functions while the rotisserie spit rod
is in place.
