WARNING
When using electric appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed including the following:
• Operate only per manufacturers instructions.
• Keep all combustible materials at least 60 inches (152.4 cm) away from the grill at all times. Do not use this
grill under any overhang or near any combustible structures.
• Minimum clearance from side and back of unit to combustible materials, 60 inches (152.4 cm) from side
and 60 inches (152.4 cm) from back.
• DO NOT use on wood decks. Set up this grill on a hard, non-combustible smooth level surface.
• Do not block ventilation and air circulation areas in sides, back or cart compartment of grill.
• In case of fi re, turn the controller “OFF”. Unplug the grill from the power source and allow the fi re to burn
out on its own. Do not use water to try to extinguish a fi re.
• Keep a fi re 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
in a relatively cool oven fl ue and exhaust hood of a slow burning fi re. As a result, creosote residue
accumulates on the fl ue lining and exhaust hood. When ignited, this creosote makes an extremely hot fi re.
• The grease duct should be inspected at least twice a year to determine when grease and/or creosote
buildup has occurred.
• When grease or creosote has accumulated, it should be removed to reduce risk of fi re.
• Do not attempt to touch cooking surfaces or other hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
• To protect against electric shock, do not immerse cord, plugs, or heating element in water or any other
liquids.
