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.
• 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.
• Use 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 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 cylinder out of correct
position specified in assembly instructions.
• Always close LP cylinder valve and remove
coupling nut before moving LP cylinder from
specified operation position.
Safety Tips
• Before opening LPcylinder valve, check the coupling nut for
tightness.
• When grill is not in use,turn off all control knobs and LPcylinder
valve.
• Never move grill while in operation or still hot.
• Use long-handled barbecue utensils and oven mitts to avoid burns
and splatters.
• Maximum load for sideburner and side shelf is 10 Ibs.
• The grease tray mustbe inserted into grill and emptied after each
use. Do not remove grease tray until grill has completely cooled.
• 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.
• If you notice grease or other hot material dripping from grill,
determine the cause, correct it, then clean and inspect valve. Keep
ventilation openings in cylinder 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 grill.
• If you have a grill problem see the "Troubleshooting Section".
• If the regulator frosts, turn off grill and LPcylinder valve
immediately. This indicates a problem with the cylinder and it
should not be used on any product. Returnto supplier!
• Putting out grease fires by closing the lid is not possible.
Grills are well ventilated for safety reasons.
• Do not use water on a grease fire. Personal injury may
result. If a grease fire develops, turn knobs and LP
cylinder off.
