1. Insure all zip ties and packaging materials have been removed from the burners and grill interior.
2. Avoid wearing loose fitting clothing or long sleeves while grilling. They could ignite.
3. Never leave the grill unattended while cooking.
4. Never touch the grill racks, lid, or surrounding metal surfaces with your bare hands while grilling. These
surfaces will be HOT.
5. The use of an insulated glove or mitt is recommended while opening or operating the grill. Open the grill lid
slowly to allow heat and smoke to escape before fully opening.
6. The grill lid must be fully opened before attempting to light the grill. Do not attempt to light with the grill lid
closed as an explosion could occur. Do not lean over the grill when lighting.
7. Do not heat unopened food containers on the grill, as pressure will build up and the container can explode.
8. Do not repair or replace any part of the grill unless specifically recommended in this manual. A qualified
technician should perform all service.
9. Do not use aluminum foil on the grill racks. This will prevent proper ventilation and allow excessive heat to
build inside the grill. Such heat can damage components of the grill.
10. Use caution when cooking excessively fatty meats as the oils produced can cause flare-ups. Keep a water
spray bottle close by to reduce these flare-ups. Damage created by uncontrolled, internal fires is not
covered under the warranty.
11. Never remove the drip tray while grilling. Always ensure that it is pushed all the way in. Hot grease can leak
downward and produce a fire or explosion. The drip pan should be cleaned on a regular basis when the grill
is cold.
12. Do not lean on the side shelves on freestanding grill applications. Do not place any load of over 25 pounds
on the side shelves.
13. If any burner does not light within 5 seconds, turn gas off and wait five (5) minutes before attempting to re-
light. If any burner goes out during operation, turn burner off and check for adequate fuel. Wait five (5)
minutes before attempting to re-light.
14. When using portable LP gas cylinders, always turn off the main valve on the cylinder after each use.
15. Use caution when operating the grill in windy conditions. When the lid is closed, wind can enter from the
back and cause an overheating condition. This can damage the grill and its components. If windy conditions
prevail, and the lid is closed, pay attention to the temperature gauge for a sudden drop in temperature.
This is a sign that the air flow has been interrupted.
16. Spiders and insects like to nest in the burner venturis. This can disrupt the gas flow and cause a very
dangerous condition that can result in a fire in the gas control area, damaging the grill and risking personal
injury. If your grill has sat unused for a long time, inspect and clean the burners. See 'Cleaning The Burners'
in the section entitled 'Cleaning Your Grill' for further details.
