For Safe Use Of Your Grill And To Avoid Serious
Injury:
• Do not let children operate or play near grill.
• Keep grill area clear and free from materials that burn.
• Do not block holes In bottom or back of grill.
• Check burner flames regularly.
• Use grill only in well-ventilated space. NEVER use in
enclosed space such as carport, garage, porch, covered
patio, or under an overhead structure of any kind.
• Do not use charcoal or ceramic briquets in a gas grill.
{Unless briquets are supplied with your grill.)
• Use grill at least 3 ft. from any wall or surface. Maintain
10ft. clearance to objects that can catch fire or sources of
ignition such as pilot lights on water heaters, live electrical
appliances, etc.
• Apartment Dwellers:
Check with management to learn the requirements and fire
codes for using an LP gas grill in your apartment complex. If
allowed, use outside on the ground floor with a three (3) foot
clearance from wails or rails. Do not use on or under
balconies.
• NEVER attempt to light burner with lid closed. A buildup
of non-ignited gas inside a closed grill is hazardous.
• Never operate grill with LP tank out of correct position
specified in assembly instructions.
• Always close LP tank valve and remove coupling nut
before moving LP tank from specified operation
position.

tightness.
A When grill is not in use, turn off all control knobs and LP tank
valve.
A Never move grill while in operation or still hot.
A Use long-handled barbecue utensils and oven mitts to avoid
burns and splatters.
A Maximum load for shelves is 10 lbs.
A Do not use a cooking pot larger than 9” on grid.
A The grease cup must be attached to grease cup clip and
emptied after each use. Do not remove grease cup until grill
has completely cooled.
A Clean grill often, preferably after each cookout. If a bristle
brush is used to clean any of the grill cooking surfaces,
ensure no loose bristles remain on cooking surfaces prior to
grilling. It is not recommended to clean cooking surfaces
while grill is hot.
A If you notice grease or other hot material dripping from grill
onto valve, hose or regulator, turn off gas supply at once.
Determine the cause, correct it, then clean and inspect valve,
hose and regulator before continuing. Perform a leak test.
A The regulator may make a humming or whistling noise during
operation. This will not affect safety or use of grill.
