For personal safety, wear proper apparel. Loose fitting garments or sleeves should never be worn while using
this appliance. Some synthetic fabrics are highly flammable and should not be worn while cooking. Only certain
types of glass, heat-proof glass ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for grill use. Use of
these types of materials may break with sudden temperature changes. Use only on low or medium heat settings
according to the manufacturer’s directions.
WARNING!
Spiders and insects can nest in the grill burners , causing gas not to flow through the burner. The gas will flow from
the front of the burner into the control panel. This is a very dangerous condition which can cause a fire to occur
behind the valve panel, thereby damaging the grill components and making it unsafe to operate.
WARNING!
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.
WARNING!
Never use the grill in windy conditions. If located in a consistently windy area (oceanfront, mountaintop, etc.) a wind
break will be required. Always adhere to the specified clearances as defined in the “INSTALLATION” section of this
manual.
GRILL PLACEMENT
■
After a period of storage or non-use (such as over the winter), the gas grill should be checked for gas leaks, dete-
rioration, proper assembly, and burner obstructions before using.
■
Never let clothing, pot holders or other flammable materials come in contact with or get too close to any grate,
burner or hot surface until it has cooled. Fabric may ignite and result in personal injury.
■
Do not heat unopened food containers as a build-up of pressure may cause the container to burst.
■
Always use a covered hand when opening the grill lid and only do so slowly to allow heat and steam to escape.
■
Never lean over an open grill. When lighting a burner, always pay close attention to what you are doing. Be cer-
tain you are pushing the ignition button when you attempt to light the grill.
■
After lighting burners, make sure burners are operating normally (see page 17).
■
When using the grill, do not touch the grill burner, grate, or immediate surrounding area as these areas become
extremely hot and could cause burns.
■
Grease is flammable. Never operate the grill without a grease tray. Let hot grease cool before attempting to
handle it. Avoid letting grease deposits collect in the drip pan. Clean often.
■
Do not use aluminum foil to line drip pans or grill grates or radiants. This can severely upset combustion air flow
or trap excessive heat in the control area. The result of this can be melted knobs or damaged ignition compo-
nents.
■
Do not operate with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any
manner. Contact the manufacturer for repair.
■
Do not let the cord hang over the edge of a table or touch hot surfaces.
■
Do not use an outdoor cooking appliance for purposes other than intended.
