GENERAL WARNINGS
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
• DO NOT
use on wood decks. Set up this grill on a hard, non-combustible smooth level surface.
• In case of fire, turn the control “OFF” and allow the fire to burn out on its own. Do not unplug the grill or
use water to try to extinguish the fire. If you feel the fire is beyond your control call the fire department.
• Keep a fire extinguisher on hand acceptable for use with electric products. Refer to your local authority
to determine proper size and type.
• Creosote – Formation and need for removal. When wood pellets are burned slowly, they produce tar
and other organic vapors that combine with expelled moisture to form creosote. The creosote vapors
condense on relatively cooler surfaces like the exhaust vents and the glass. As a result, creosote
residue accumulates on these surfaces. When ignited, this creosote makes an extremely hot fire. To
prevent this do a deep clean on the internal components of the grill at least twice a year. See Care and
Maintenance Section on Page 19.
• Keep appliance clean. When grease or creosote has accumulated, it should be cleaned to reduce risk
of fire. See Care and Maintenance section.
• The surfaces of the grill will get very hot during regular use and can be a burn hazard. Do not leave
unattended when children are present and keep away from combustible materials.
• To avoid accidental burns wear heat resistant mitts, use long handled tools, handles, and knobs when
operating the grill.
• To protect against electric shock, do not immerse cord, plugs, or heating element in water or any other
liquids.
• Do not place power cord where it may come in contact with hot surfaces or pose a tripping hazard.

down before attempting to clean or service.
• Do not operate any appliance with a damaged power cord or plug, or after the appliance has
malfunctioned or been damaged in any manner.
• NEVER
add cooking pellets to a hot fire pot by hand. You could be seriously burned. If the hopper
runs out of pellets or your fire goes out while cooking, let the grill completely cool and follow the Initial
Lighting Instructions.
• Use only cooking grade wood pellets.
NEVER
use heating grade wood pellets as they are not safe for
cooking.
