WARNING
For Safe Use of Your Grill and to Avoid Serious
Injury:
• Do not let children operate or play near the grill.
• Keep the grill area clear and free from materials that
burn.
• Do not block the holes on the insides and back of the
grill.
• Use the grill only in well-ventilated space. NEVER use
the grill in an enclosed space such as a carport,
garage, porch, covered patio, or under an overhead
structure of any kind.
• Do not use charcoal or ceramic briquettes in a gas
grill.
• Use the grill at least 3 ft. from any wall or surface.
Maintain 10 ft. clearance to objects that can catch
fire, or to sources of ignition 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 the lid closed.
A buildup of non-ignited gas inside a closed grill is
hazardous.
• Never operate the grill with a LP tank out of position
specified in the assembly instructions.
• Always close the LP tank valve and remove coupling
nut before moving the LP tank from specified
operation position.
Safety Tips
▲
Before opening the LP tank valve, check the coupling nut for
tightness.
▲
When the grill is not in use, turn off all control knobs and LP
tank valve.
▲
Never move the grill while in operation or still hot.
▲
Use long-handled barbecue utensils and oven mitts to avoid
burns and splatters.
▲
The maximum load for the side burner and side shelf is 10 lbs.
▲
The drip tray must be inserted into the grill and emptied after
each use. Do not remove the drip tray until the grill has
completely cooled.
▲
Clean the 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 the cooking surfaces prior
to grilling. It is not recommended to clean cooking surfaces
while the grill is hot.
▲
If you notice grease or other material dripping from the grill;
determine the cause correct it, then clean and inspect the
valve. Keep ventilation openings and tank enclosure (grill
cart) free and clear of debris.
▲
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.
▲
The regulator may make a humming or whistling noise during
operation. This will not affect safety or use of the grill.
▲
If you have a grill problem, see the "Troubleshooting Section".
If the regulator frosts, turn off the 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!
