follow all information supplied with your RV
about propane before operating the BBQ
grill. The propane hose must be correctly
connected before lighting the grill. Failure

other components than those originally
supplied with the grill could lead to death
or serious injury from fire or explosion.
The maximum weight limit for the bracket

limit includes the weight placed on the
BBQ gill. Exceeding this weight limit could
cause damage to the unit and possibly
