General Safety Precautions

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, serious injury or death when using your appliance, follow basic safety precau-

tions, including the following:

To avoid the possibility of fire, do not leave the appli-

ance unattended when in use.
To avoid the possibility of fire or burns, do not allow

clothing, potholders, towels or rags to come into con-

tact with hot surfaces during and immediately after

use.
Do not use towels or bulky cloth as pot holders.

Do not wear loose or hanging apparel while using this

appliance. Do not allow clothing to come into contact

with the cooking surface.
Inspect the gas hose and regulator assemblies before

each use of this appliance.
Keep items that could explode, such as aerosol cans

away from the grill and burners. Do not store flam-

mable or explosive materials in adjacent cabinets or

areas.
Exercise caution when opening the canopy. Let hot

air or steam escape before looking or reaching inside.
Do not use abrasives, caustic cleaners or detergents

to clean this appliance. They may cause permanent

damage to surfaces. Do not use aerosol cleaners.

They may be flammable or cause corrosion of metal

parts.
Turn the knobs to the

off position prior to removing

them from the valve stems.
Do not operate the appliance without the knobs and

trim rings in place.
Do not expose the knobs or trim rings to direct lame,

hot utensils or other sources of heat.
Clean the appliance thoroughly before operating it for

the first time.
NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages on

the outdoor grill or its chassis. Doing so blocks air

flow and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning.

Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a

fire hazard. Keep all slots, holes and passages clear

of grease and grime.
In the event of a power failure, use only the Dacor

supplied match light tool or a long stemmed match to

light.
Make sure this appliance is used only by those indi-

viduals who are able to operate it properly.
Never allow anyone, including children to sit, stand

or climb on any part of the appliance. Doing so may

cause tipping, damage, serious injury or death.
