grilling safety
NEVER leave the grill unattended..
NEVER operate a grill that has not successfully undergone a leak test.
Prior to the first use - make certain that all packing materials and tie downs have been removed
from the interior of the grill, the grates have been washed and given a light coat of canola oil.
Avoid wearing loose-fitting garments while grilling.
Assume all surfaces are hot. Do not touch the grill racks, hood or immediate surrounding metal
surfaces with bare hands - these areas become extremely hot during use and could cause burns.
Use an insulated glove or mitt when opening and operating the grill.
Open the grill hood slowly to allow heat and smoke to escape before fully opening.
Open the grill hood fully when lighting.
Never lean over hot grill surface or look directly into the grill when lighting.
Do not heat unopened food containers.
Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of the grill. Severe damage can result and void your
warranty
Never use charcoal in this gas grill.
Excessively fatty foods can cause flare-ups. Damage caused as a result of unsupervised use or
flare-ups will void the warranty.
Never grill without the drip pan in place. Failure to ensure that the drip pan is properly inserted
can result in a grease fire.
Grease is extremely flammable. Let hot grease cool down completely before disposing of it.
The drip tray should be cleaned after every use.
Before grilling, lightly oil the grates with canola before lighting the burners and preheat for
10 minutes for best peformance.
NEVER operate the grill under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
