• Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and
liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
• Do not store any propane/butane (G31-G30) cylinder (that is
not connected for use) in the vicinity of this or any other
appliance.
• Children should not be left alone or unattended in an area
where the smoker is being used. Never allow children to sit,
stand or play on or around the smoker at any time. Do not
store items of interest to children around the unit. Never
allow children to crawl inside the unit.
• Use a covered hand when opening the hood and do so
slowly to allow heat and steam to escape. To avoid burns
when cooking, use long handled BBQ tools.
• Use sturdy, properly insulated gloves or potholders. Dish
towels or other substitutes can become entangled, causing
burns. Use dry potholders; wet potholders create steam and
cause burns. Keep potholders away from open flames when
lifting or moving utensils. Do not touch portions of the unit
with potholders until the hot surfaces have cooled.
• Only certain types of glass, heat-proof glass ceramic,
earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for grill
use. These types of materials may break with sudden
temperature changes.
• Never grill without the drip tray in place. Make sure it is
placed under the drain plug to catch the drippings. Let the
grease cool before attempting to remove for cleaning or
disposal. Do not allow large amounts of grease to accumulate
in the drip tray as it can catch on fire.
