PRECAUTIONS
Do not heat unopened food containers. A build-up
of pressure may cause the containers to burst.
Use a covered hand when opening the grill lid.
Never lean over an open grill.
When lighting a burner, pay close attention to what
you are doing. Make certain you are aware of which
burner you are lighting, so your body and clothing
remain clear of open flames
.
When using the grill, do not touch the grill rack,
burner grate or immediate surroundings as these
areas become extremely hot and could cause burns.
Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders
on hot surfaces may cause steam burns. Do not
use a towel or bulky cloth in place or potholders. Do
not allow potholders to touch hot portions of the grill
rack.
Grease is flammable. Let hot grease cool before
attempting to handle it. Do not allow grease
deposits to collect in the grease tray at the bottom
of the grill’s firebox. Clean the grease tray often.
Do not use aluminum foil to line the grill racks or
grill bottom. This can severely upset combustion air
flow or trap excessive heat in the control area.
For proper lighting and performance of the burners
keep the burner ports clean. It is necessary to clean
them periodically for optimum performance. The
burners will only operate in one position and must
be mounted correctly for safe operation.
Clean the grill with caution. To 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.
Turn off grill controls and make certain 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 corrode.
Do not use the grill to cook excessively fatty meats
or other products which promote flare – ups.
Do not operate the grill under unprotected
combustible constructions. Use only in well
ventilated areas. Do not use in buildings, garages,
sheds, breezeways or other such enclosed areas.
Keep the area surrounding the grill free from
combustible materials including, fluids, trash, and
vapors such as gasoline or charcoal lighter fluid. Do
not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation
air.
