motor cord away from the heated areas of the 

grill.

• 

Never  use  the  grill  or  side  burner  in  windy 

conditions. If used in a consistently windy area a 

windbreak will be required. Always adhere to the 

specified clearances listed in this manual.

• 

Never line the grill or side burners with aluminum 

foil.

• 

When the unit is not in use, be sure to turn off the 

gas at the LP tank.

• 

Do  not  install  or  operate  your  grill  unit  in  such 

a manner that the cross ventilation openings are 

blocked.  Fresh air must be able to pass though 

installed vents to safeguard against residual gas 

accumulation.  Failure to allow proper ventilation 

may cause fire or explosion.

• 

When  handling  LP  gas  line  and  connectors, 

do not allow them to come in contact with any 

metal  surfaces  of  the  cabinet.    Do  not  drop  LP 

connectors.

• 

Do not use fuel such as charcoal briquettes in gas 

grills.

• 

Gas sources to the grill and side burners must be 

regulated.  Do not operate grill or side burners if 

regulators  have  been  removed,  fire  or  explosion 

can occur.

• 

Never leave the grill and side burners unattended 

when  in  use.    When  using  pots  and  pans,  boil-

overs  will  cause  smoking  and  greasy  boil-overs 

may ignite.

• 

Always  use  the  proper  size  pan.  Select  utensils 

with flat bottoms large enough to cover the burner. 

The use of under-sized utensils exposes the sides 

of the utensils to direct contact with a portion of 

the  flame.  This  can  scorch  utensils  and  hamper 

cleanup. Excessive flames on large stainless steel 

pots  can  result  in  permanent  discoloration.  For 

best  results,  we  recommend  commercial  quality 

aluminum pans and utensils.

• 

Always  position  handles  of  utensils  so  they  do 

not extend over adjacent work areas or cooking 

areas. This reduces the risk of burns, ignition of 

flammable materials, and spillage due to accidental 

contact with the utensils.

• 

Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a 

flaming pan. Turn the appliance off and smother 

the  flaming  pan  with  a  tight-fitting  lid,  a  cookie 

sheet or a flat tray. For flaming grease outside of 

the pan, smother it with baking soda or use a dry 

chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

• 

Never  allow  clothing,  pot  holders  or  other 

flammable  materials  come  in  contact  with  or  be 

close  to  any  grate,  burner  or  hot  surface  until 

it  has  fully  cooled.  Never  wear  loose  fitting  or 

hanging  garments  while  using  your  grill.  Fabric 

may ignite and result in personal injury.

• 

When using the grill, do not touch the grill rack, 

burner grate, or immediate surroundings as these 

areas become extremely hot and can cause burns. 

Use handles or knobs.

• 

Only use dry pot holders and do not use a towel or 

other bulky cloth in place of pot holders. Moist or 

damp pot holders used on hot surfaces can cause 

burns.

• 

Do not heat any unopened glass or metal container 

of  food  on  the  grill.  Pressure  may  build  up  and 

cause the container to burst, possibly resulting in 

serious personal injury or damage to the grill.

• 

Do not reach over your grill or any other surfaces 

when hot or in use.

Maintenance and Repair

Storage

Precautions Regarding Children

• 

Spiders and other insects can nest in the burners 

of the grill and block the gas and airflow to the 

burner ports. This creates a dangerous condition 

that  can  result  in  a  fire  behind  the  valve  panel. 

Inspect  and  clean  the  burners  periodically 

and  follow  the  guidelines  in  the  Cleaning  and 

Maintenance section of this manual.

• 

Unless specifically recommended in this manual, 

do  not  repair  or  replace  any  part  of  the  grill.  A 

qualified  technician  should  perform  all  service. 

Any repairs made by a non-LMS approved dealer 

technician will void your warranty.

• 

When your gas grill is not in use, turn off the gas 

at the supply cy

linder.

• 

Storage of a grill indoors is permissible only if the 

supply

 cylinder is disconnected and removed.

•  Never leave children unattended in the area 

where the grill is being used. Close supervision of 

children  is  necessary  when  any  appliance  is  use 

near children.

•  Do not store items of interest to children around 

or below the grill.

• 

Never allow children to sit or stand on any part of 

the grill.
