To reduce the risk of serious injury or death from explosion or fi re:
• Be careful when burning charcoal to avoid getting burned from fl ame, heat or hot coals.
• Be aware of the wind blown sparks.
• The use of alcohol, prescription or non-prescription drugs could impair the consumer’s ability to properly assemble or safely

USING CHARCOAL
To reduce the risk of serious injury or death from explosion or fi re:
• Locate your grill an open area away from buildings, dry leaves, or brush, and at least 10 feet away from your house or building.
• Always make sure the grill is on a level, stable surface and not tilted toward the front or back.
• Do not use the grill in a garage, breezeway, carport, porch, high traffi
c area, on or under any surface that can catch fi re.
• Do not use a charcoal grill indoors, on recreational vehicles, or on boats.
SELECTING A LOCATION
To reduce the risk of serious injury or death from explosion or fi re:
• Make certain you leave the Hood all the way open until the fl ames have died down.
• Should electrically operated starters be used, be sure they are properly grounded according to local codes. Electrical cords
should be placed away from walkways or traffi
c areas.
• Do not use lighter fl uid, an electric fi re starter solid, or chimney starters with instant light charcoal. This could cause fl ame-ups,
unpleasant fumes and odors.
• Use barbecue mitts and long handled tongs to spread out the hot charcoal.
• If there is any type of fi re that threatens either personal safety or property, call the fi re department.
STARTING A FIRE
• To reduce risk of burns from the hot air and steam trapped inside, open the Hood carefully when grill roasting.
• Do not grasp the Cooking Grid with your hands while it is hot. Use barbecue mitts for handling.
• If fl are-ups occur, close the Vents for at least one minute to stop fl are-up. Do not use water.
COOKING ON YOUR GRILL

• Allow the grill to cool completely before cleaning, transporting or storing.
• Empty and clean the Fire Bowl after each cooking session so excessive grease and ashes do not accumulate. See Cleaning
instructions on next page.
• Store your charcoal grill in a cool dry place.
• Do not store charcoal and lighter fl uid indoors.
• Store out of the reach of children.
• Do not store additional charcoal and lighter fl uid under or near the grill while it is hot.
• To avoid a fi re or explosion, do not store charcoal or lighter fl uid near a heat source.
• Always cap the lighter fl uid when not in use.
