WARNING
• Only use this grill on a hard, level, non-combustible, stable surface (concrete, ground, etc.) capable
of supporting the weight of the grill. Never use on wooden or other surfaces that could burn.
• Proper clearance of 10 feet (3.1 m) between the grill and combustible material (bushes, trees,
wooden decks, fences, buildings, etc.) or construction should be maintained at all times when grill
is in use. DO NOT place grill under a roof overhang or other enclosed area.
• For outdoor use only. DO NOT operate grill indoors or in an enclosed area.
• For household use only. DO NOT use this grill for other than its intended purpose.
• DO NOT store lighter fluid or other flammable liquids, material or charcoal that has been pre-
treated with lighter fluid in or around the grill.
• DO NOT use gasoline, kerosene or alcohol for lighting charcoal. Use of any of these or similar
products could cause an explosion possibly leading to severe bodily injury.
• Never add charcoal lighting fluid to hot or even warm coals as flashback may occur causing severe
burns.
• Keep children and pets away from hot grill. DO NOT allow children to use or play near this grill.

opening the lid, keep hands, face and body a safe distance from hot steam and flame flare-ups.
• DO NOT allow charcoal and/or wood to rest on the walls of grill. Doing so will greatly reduce the life
of the metal and finish of your grill.

metal parts. Use caution when reaching into or under grill.
