41. This LP gas grill is not designed to be used with 

more        than 50% of the cooking area as a solid plate 

(griddle).         Full coverage of plates will cause excessive 

heat and        could damage the grill.

42. Never douse the grill with water when its surfaces 

are        hot because it may cause grease to splatter or 

the        porcelain cooking grids and hood to break. Use bak-

ing soda to control a grease fire.

43. When not in use, the LP cylinder valve must be 

       turned to “Off” position.

44. Empty charcoal and wood chunk ashes after each use.        

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

45. Set up grill in an open area away from buildings, dry        

leaves, or brush. Be sure to avoid high traffic areas and 

always barbecue in a well-ventilated area. Be aware of wind 

blown sparks.   

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

   46. Never 

use lighter fluids. Never use gasoline, kerosene, alcohol, or 

other volatile fluids as a starter. They can explode. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

47. Once 

the charcoal briquettes are lit, do not touch to see if they are 

hot. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  48. Allow 

coals to burn out completely and let the ashes cool        for 

48 hours before disposing of them. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

49. 

Dispose of cold ashes by wrapping them in heavy-duty alu-

minum foil and putting them in a non-combustible container. 

Be sure there are no other combustible materials in or near 

the container.   

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

50. If you 

must dispose of the ashes in less time than it takes for them 

to completely cool, remove the ashes from the grill keeping 

them in heavy duty foil and soak them completely with water 
before disposing in a non-       combustible container.
