C. SAFE USE OF NATURAL (NG) GAS (continued)
• Always promptly shut off the gas supply and immediately extinguish all flames if you smell gas.
• Always seek assistance from your gas supplier or your local Fire Department if the gas smell persists, because of the
danger of fire or explosion.
• Always confirm that there are no gas leaks before lighting this Grill. Apply a 50/50 solution of liquid soap and wa-
ter to the gas supply line connectors with a brush or spray bottle, and watch for bubbles. If bubbles appear, a leak is
detected.
• Turn off the gas supply and repair the leak. Repeat this test until no bubbles appear. Never use a match or
open flame to test for gas leaks.
• Always visually inspect the gas supply line for fraying, cracking or rodent damage before each use of this Grill. If
necessary, install a replacement before lighting this Grill. This procedure requires the opening of a door or doors in
the Grill.
• Never permit a gas supply line to contact any heated surface of this Grill.
D. PREVENTION OF BURNS
• Always keep children and pets under close supervision when using this Grill, and never permit them to come near
the Grill while it is in use, as the exterior surfaces will be extremely hot.
• Always wear insulated protective mitts when working at the Grill, or when attempting to close a gas supply valve
after cooking has been completed, to prevent possible burns. Always use insulated pot holders when handling con-
tainers of hot food.
• Always wear an insulated protective mitt when adding a smoking agent to a Smoker Box.
• Never store or use gasoline or other flammable or volatile substances in the vicinity of this Grill, or in the vicinity of
any other heat-generating appliance.
