POTHOLDERS
»
Use only dry potholders: moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may cause burns from steam. Do not use a towel
or bulky cloth in place of potholders. Do not let potholders touch hot portions of the grill rack.
GREASE
»
Grease is flammable. Let hot grease cool before attempting to handle it. Avoid letting grease deposits collect at the
bottom of the grill. Clean grill after each use to avoid grease build-up.
AIRFLOW
»
Do not use aluminum foil to line the grill racks or grill bottom. This can severely upset combustion airflow or trap excessive
heat in the control area. The result of this can be melted knobs, melted igniters and wiring, and increase the chance of per-
sonal injury.
»
For proper lighting and performance of the burners, keep the burner ports clean. It is necessary to clean them periodi-
cally for optimum performance. The burners will only operate in one position and must be mounted correctly for safe
operation.
CLEANING
»
Clean the grill with caution. Avoid steam burns; do not use a wet sponge or cloth to clean the grill while it is not. Some
cleaners produce noxious fumes or can ignite if applied to a hot surface.
»
Be sure all grill controls are turned off and the grill is cool before using a 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.
