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 burns
from steam. Do not use a towel or bulky
cloth in place or potholders. Do not let
potholders touch hot portions of the grill
rack.
Grease is flammable. Let hot grease cool
before attempting to handle it. Avoid letting
excess grease deposits collect in the grease
tray at the bottom of the grill’s firebox. Clean
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. 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.
INSECT WARNING!!! Spiders and insects
can nest in the burners of this and any
other grill, and cause the gas to flow
improperly. This is a very dangerous
condition which can cause a fire to occur
behind the valve panel, thereby
damaging the grill and making it unsafe
to operate. Inspect the grill twice a year.
Be sure all grill controls are turned off and
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 for cooking excessively
fatty meats or products which promote flare-
ups. Do not operate the grill under
unprotected combustible construction. Use
only in well ventilated areas. Do not use in
buildings, garages, sheds, breezeways or
other such enclosed areas.
THIS UNIT IS
FOR OUTDOOR USE ONLY.
Keep the area surrounding the grill free from
combustible materials, trash, or combustible
fluids and vapors such as gasoline or
charcoal lighter fluid. Do not obstruct the
flow of combustion and ventilation air. If the
unit is stored indoors ensure that it is cool. If
propane is used, the cylinder must be
unhooked and the propane cylinder stored
outside in a well ventilated area, out of the
reach of children.
DO NOT USE BRIQUETTES OF ANY KIND
IN THE GRILL.
The Courtyard Grill is designed for optimum
performance without the use of briquettes.
Do not place briquettes on the radiant as
this will block off the area for the grill burners
to vent. Adding briquettes can damage
ignition components and knobs, and void the
warranty.
Keep the back of the cart free and clear from
debris. Keep any electrical supply cord, or
the rotisserie motor cord away from the
heated areas of the grill.
Never use the grill in extremely windy
conditions. If located in a consistently windy
area (oceanfront, mountaintop, etc.) a
windbreak will be required (see below).
Always adhere to the specified clearance.
NEVER USE A DENTED OR RUSTY
