will result in death or serious injury.

m DANGER! Keep flammable vapours and liquids away from
the barbecue. Never use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel,
kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar liquids to start or
'freshen up' a fire in this appliance. Keep all such liquids well
away from the appliance when in use.
m WARNING! For outdoor use only. The installation of the pellet
barbecue shall be located so flue gases including smoke will
not communicate or enter any building. Consult with the local
fire or building codes for additional requirements.
m WARNING! Creosote – Formation and need for removal. When
wood pellets are burned slowly, they produce tar and other
organic vapours that combine with expelled moisture to form
creosote. When ignited, this creosote makes an extremely hot fire.
m WARNING! The ash and grease system and cookbox should be
inspected before each cook to determine when grease and/or
creosote buildup has occurred. When grease or creosote has
accumulated, it should be removed to reduce the risk of fire.
m WARNING! Disposal of ashes – Ashes should be placed in a
metal container with a tight-fitting lid. The closed container of
ashes should be placed on a non-combustible floor or on the
ground, well away from all combustible materials, pending
final disposal. When the ashes are disposed by burial in soil
or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in the
closed container until all cinders have thoroughly cooled.

PELLETS in this barbecue. Do not use heating fuel pellets. Pellet
fuel average heating value of 7,900 BTU/LB, ash content <1%.
