WARNING

CAUTION

For Safe Use of Your Grill and to Avoid Serious 
Injury:

•  Do not let children operate or play near grill. 
•  Keep grill area clear and free from materials that 

burn.

•  Do not block holes in sides or back of grill. 
•  Check burner flames regularly.
•  Use grill only in well-ventilated space. NEVER use 

in enclosed space such as carport, garage, porch, 
covered patio, or under an overhead structure of 
any kind.

•  Do not use charcoal or ceramic briquets in a gas 

grill. (Unless briquets are supplied with your grill.)

•  

Use grill at least 3 ft. from any wall or surface. 

Maintain 10 ft. clearance to objects that can catch 
fire or sources of ignition such as pilot lights on 
water heaters, live electrical appliances, etc.

•  Apartment Dwellers:

Check with management to learn the requirements 
and fire codes for using an LP gas grill in your 
apartment complex. If allowed, use outside on the 
ground floor with a three (3) foot clearance from 
walls or rails. Do not use on or under balconies.

•  

NEVER attempt to light burner with lid closed. A 
buildup of non-ignited gas inside a closed grill is 
hazardous.

•  

Never operate grill with LP cylinder out of 
correct position specified in assembly 
instructions. 

•  

Always close LP cylinder valve and remove 
coupling nut before moving LP cylinder from 
specified operation position.

Safety Tips

s

  Before opening LP cylinder valve, check the coupling nut 

for tightness.

s

  When grill is not in use, turn off all control knobs and LP 

cylinder valve. 

s

  Never move grill while in operation or still hot.

s

  Use long-handled barbecue utensils and oven mitts to 

avoid burns and splatters. 

s

  Maximum load for sideburner and side shelf is 10 lbs.

s

  The grease tray must be inserted into grill and emptied 

after each use. Do not remove grease tray until grill has 
completely cooled.

s

  Clean grill often, preferably after each cookout. If a 

bristle brush is used to clean any of the grill cooking 
surfaces, ensure no loose bristles remain on cooking 
surfaces prior to grilling. It is not recommended to clean 
cooking surfaces while grill is hot.

s

  If you notice grease or other hot material dripping from 

grill onto valve, hose or regulator, turn off gas supply at 
once. Determine the cause, correct it, then clean and 
inspect valve, hose and regulator before continuing. 
Perform a leak test.

s

  Keep ventilation openings in cylinder enclosure (grill 

cart) free and clear of debris.

s

  Do not store objects or materials inside the grill cart 

enclosure that would block the flow of combustion air to the 
underside of either the control panel or the firebox bowl.

s

  The regulator may make a humming or whistling noise 

during operation. This will not affect safety or use of grill. 

s

  If you have a grill problem see the "Troubleshooting Section".

s

  If the regulator frosts, turn off grill and LP cylinder valve 

immediately. This indicates a problem with the cylinder and 
it should not be used on any product. Return to supplier!

•  Putting out grease fires by closing the lid is not 

possible. Grills are well ventilated for safety reasons. 

•  Do not use water on a grease fire. Personal injury 

may result. If a grease fire develops, turn knobs and 
LP cylinder off. 

•  Do not leave grill unattended while preheating or 

burning off food residue on HI. If grill has not been 
regularly cleaned, a grease fire can occur that may 
damage the product.
