Warming Rack

To reduce the risk of fire or flare-up from grease drippings:
• When cooking food on the warming rack, make sure no Burners are on directly under the Drip Pan. 
• Clean grease drippings away from grill after each use. 

WARNING

!

Warming Racks are a convenient way to cook food, keep cooked food warm or to warm items such as bread or rolls. To 
keep foods warm, set the Burners on Low or turn off all that are not needed. When cooking food on the Warming Rack, 
follow procedures for “Roasting (Indirect Cooking).” Be sure to place a pan or drip tray under the food.

When opening the Hood, be alert of 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. Wipe away any dripping grease.

End of Cooking Session

To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury or death from fire or burn hazard:
•  Allow grill and the grease in the Foil Pan to completely cool before emptying, handling parts, cleaning, moving, or 

storage.

• Empty the Foil Pan and Grease Pan after each cooking session so excessive grease does not accumulate.
• Never light the LP gas grill without the Foil Pan, Grease Pan, and Bottom Panel in place.

WARNING

!

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

This will burn off some cooking residue, thus making cleaning easier. (Side Burner not affected.)

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

3. Turn off the gas at the LP Gas Cylinder valve by turning the handle clockwise until it stops.

4. Wait until the grill is cool before closing the Hood, cleaning, or putting on a grill cover.

5. Regularly clean your LP gas grill between uses and after extended storage periods. To maintain the condition 

and extend the life of your grill, we strongly recommend that the unit be covered when stored outside for any 
length of time, especially during the winter months.
