WARNING
For Safe Use of Your Grill and to Avoid Serious
Injury:
• Do not let children operate or play near grill.
• Keep grill area clear and free from materials that burn.
• Do not block holes in sides or back of grill.
• Check burner flames regularly.
• Use grill only in well-ventilated space. NEVER use in
enclosed space such as carport, garage, porch,
covered patio, or under an overhead structure of any
kind.
• Do not use charcoal or ceramic briquets in a gas grill.
(Unless briquets are supplied with your grill.)
• Use grill at least 3 ft. from any wall or surface.
Maintain 10 ft. clearance to objects that can catch fire
or sources of ignition such as pilot lights on water
heaters, live electrical appliances, etc.
• Apartment Dwellers:
Check with management to learn the requirements
and fire codes for using an LP gas grill in your
apartment complex. If allowed, use outside on the
ground floor with a three (3) foot clearance from walls
or rails. Do not use on or under balconies.
• NEVER attempt to light burner with lid closed. A
buildup of non-ignited gas inside a closed grill is
hazardous.
• Never operate grill with LP tank out of correct
position specified in assembly instructions.
• Always close LP tank valve and remove coupling
nut before moving LP tank from specified
operation position.

s The grease cup must be inserted into grill and emptied after each
use. Do not remove grease cup until grill has completely cooled.
s
Clean grill often, preferably after each cookout. If a bristle
brush is used to clean any of the grill cooking surfaces,
ensure no loose bristles remain on cooking surfaces prior to
grilling. It is not recommended to clean cooking surfaces
while grill is hot.
s
If you notice grease or other hot material dripping from grill onto
valve, hose or regulator, turn off gas supply at once. Determine the
cause, correct it, then clean and inspect valve, hose and regulator
before continuing. Perform a leak test.
s
Keep ventilation openings in tank enclosure (grill cart) free and
clear of debris.
s
Do not store objects or materials inside the grill cart enclosure that
would block the flow of combustion air to the underside of either the
control panel or the firebox bowl.
s
The regulator may make a humming or whistling noise during
operation. This will not affect safety or use of grill.
s
If you have a grill problem see the "Troubleshooting Section".

If the regulator frosts, turn off grill and LP tank valve immediately.
This indicates a problem with the tank and it should not be used on
any product. Return to supplier!
