PRE-START CHECK LIST:
• Ensure that the grill is properly assembled.
• Inspect the gas supply hose for burns, chaffing, kinks, and proper routing before each use. If it is
evident there is excessive abrasion or wear, or the hose is cut, it must be replaced prior to the grill
being used.
• Leak check all gas connections, hose and propane tank. See section on “Leak Testing”.
• Ensure that all electrical supply cords are properly grounded. Keep any electrical supply cord and the
fuel supply hose away from any heated surfaces. Hose should be at least 7.6 centimeters from hot
surfaces.

3.1 meters from combustible materials, buildings and overhangs.
• Properly place the empty fat cup under the fat drain hole in the bottom of the grill to catch fat during
use.

safety steps. These steps should be performed after the grill has been assembled and prior to
