End of Cooking Session

To reduce risk of serious injury or death from fire or burn hazard:
•  Allow grill and grease in the Drip Tray to completely cool before emptying, cleaning, moving, or storing grill.
• Empty the Drip Tray after each cooking session so grease does not accumulate.

WARNING

!

1. After each cooking session, close the Hood and turn the Burner to the “High” position and burn for five minutes. 

This will burn off some cooking residue, thus making cleaning easier.

2. When you have finished using your grill, turn the Regulator Knob clockwise to the “Off” position.

3. Remove the propane cylinder and replace the protective cap over the regulator opening. Replace the plastic cap on 

the top of propane cylinder for storage if not empty.

4. Store cylinder outdoors and away from grill

5. Wait until the grill is cool to the touch before closing the Hood, cleaning, storing or transporting.

6. Clean your LP gas grill between uses and after extended storage periods. To maintain the condition and extend 

the life of your grill, the unit should be covered when stored.

Controlling Flare-ups:

Flare-ups are part of cooking meats on a grill. This adds to the unique flavor of barbequed food. However, excessive 
flare-ups can overcook your food and create a dangerous situation for you and your grill. Excessive flare-ups may result  
from large amounts of fat on the food being cooked or the build up of grease in the grill. 

If excessive flare-ups 

occur, DO NOT pour water on the flames.

 This can cause grease to splatter and could result in serious burns 

or bodily harm. If a grease fire occurs, turn off the burner until the grease burns out. To prevent or minimize flare-ups, 
trim all excess fat or skin from meats before grilling and keep the grill and drip tray cleaned of excess grease.

Storage and Transportation

1. Disconnect LP Gas Cylinder from grill and store outside, in a dry, well-ventilated area, away from any sources of 

heat or ignition. Re-cap LP Gas Cylinder valve with the Safety Cap.

2. Cover the regulator opening with the plastic cap supplied with the grill.

3. If storing grill or before an extended period of non-use, remove Burner and wrap with aluminum foil to reduce the 

risk of insects entering the Burner holes. Cooking Grid and Flavor Activator may be wrapped in foil as well.

4. Store grill indoors only if the LP Gas Cylinder is disconnected from the gas grill and stored outside.

5. Before next use, remove aluminum foil and reinstall Burner, Flavor Activator, and Cooking Grid.

6. Before using the grill after periods of storage or non-use (i.e. over winter), check your LP gas grill for gas leaks, 

deterioration, proper assembly, and Burner obstructions.

7. Periodically check and tighten all nuts, bolts, and screws on grill. 

DA N G E R

!

Do not put grill in storage or travel mode immediately after use.                                   

Allow grill to cool to touch before moving or storing. Failure to do so could result in fire 

resulting in property damage, personal injury or death.

Warming Rack

The Warming Rack is a convenient way to cook food more slowly and further from the heat or to warm items such as 
bread or rolls. When opening the Hood, be alert for dripping fat from the Warming Rack that could drip onto the back of 
the grill. Always check that your Warming Rack is properly fitted before use. Using heat resistant gloves, carefully wipe 
away any dripping grease.
