WARNING!
Spiders and insects can nest in the grill burners , causing gas not to flow through the burner. The gas will flow from
the front of the burner into the control panel. This is a very dangerous condition which can cause a fire to occur
behind the valve panel, thereby damaging the grill components and making it unsafe to operate. If this occurs, call for
service immediately.
WARNING!
Keep the area surrounding the grill free from combustible materials, trash, or combustible fluids and vapors such as
gasoline or charcoal lighter fluid. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
WARNING!
Never use the grill in windy conditions. If located in a consistently windy area (oceanfront, mountaintop, etc.) a wind
break will be required. Always adhere to the specified clearances listed.
»
After a period of storage or non-use (such as over the winter), the gas grill should be checked for gas leaks, deteriora-
tion, proper assembly, and burner obstructions before using.
»
Never lean over an open grill. When lighting a burner, always pay close attention to what you are doing. Be certain you
are pushing the ignition button when you attempt to light the grill.
»
After lighting burners, make sure burners are operating normally.
»
When using the grill, do not touch the grill burner, grate, or immediate surrounding area as these areas become ex-
tremely hot and could cause burns.
»
When using the side burners always use flat bottomed pans which are large enough to cover the side burner. Adjust the
flame so that it heats only the bottom of the pan to avoid ignition of clothing. Position handles inward away from open
edges of the unit to avoid burns associated with unintentional spillovers. Hold the handle of the pan to prevent move-
ment of it when turning or stirring food. For proper lighting and performance of the burners keep the ports clean. It is
necessary to clean periodically for optimum performance.
»
Clean the grill with caution. Avoid steam burns; do not use a wet sponge or cloth to clean the grill while it is hot. Some
cleaners produce noxious fumes or can ignite if applied to a hot surface.
»
Be sure all grill controls are turned off and the grill is cool before using any type of aerosol cleaner on or around the
grill. The chemical that produces the spraying action could, in the presence of heat, ignite or cause metal parts to cor-
rode.
»
Do not use the grill for cooking excessively fatty meats or products which promote flare-ups.
»
Never grill without the drip pan and grease tray in place and pushed all the way to the back of the grill. Without it hot
grease could leak downward and produce a fire or explosion hazard.
»
Do not operate the grill under unprotected combustible construction. Use only in well ventilated areas. Do not use in
buildings, garages, sheds, breezeway, covered structure or other such enclosed areas. This unit is for outdoor use only.
»
If a cart unit is stored indoors, ensure that it is cool, fold the side shelf down, then push, never pull, the grill and never
push or pull on the side shelves. If LP, the cylinder must be unhooked and the LP cylinder stored outside in a well
ventilated area, out of reach of children.
»
Never use the grill in a windy area.
»
Do not use charcoal or lighter fluid in the outdoor grill.
»
Keep any electrical supply cord, or the rotisserie motor cord away from the heated areas of the grill and water
(pools, fountains, puddles).
»
Never use a dented or rusty LP tank. Keep the ventilation openings of the cylinder enclosure free and clear from de-
bris.
»
Use only dry potholders; moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may cause burns from steam. Do not use a towel
or bulky cloth in place of potholders. Do not let potholders touch hot portions of the grill or burner grate.
»
Have an ABC rated Fire Extinguisher accessible – never attempt to extinguish a grease fire with water or other liquids.
