GENERAL WARNINGS:

WARNING

• Leak test all connections before first use, even if grill was purchased fully assembled and after each tank refill.

• Always check the grill and propane tank prior to each use as indicated in the “Checking for Leaks” & “Pre-Start Check List” sections of this manual.

• Never use natural gas in a unit designed for liquid propane gas.

• Never use charcoal, lava rocks or wood briquets in a gas grill. Flavoring chips must be contained in a metal smoking box to contain ash and prevent fires.

• Ensure flames come out of all burner ports at each use. Spiders and insects like to build nests in burner tubes. Blocked burner tubes can prevent gas flow to the burners and could result in a burner tube fire or fire beneath the grill.

• Never check for leaks using a match or open flame.

• Never use or store petrol, lighter fluid, paint thinner, or other flammable vapors and liquids or combustible materials in or near your grill.

• DO NOT block ventilation areas in sides, back or cart compartment of grill.

• DO NOT cover cooking grates or other components with aluminum foil, as this blocks ventilation and damage to grill or personal injury may occur.

• Never place more than 6.8 kilograms on the side tables. DO NOT lean on the side tables. DO NOT lift grill using side tables.

• Keep children and pets away from hot grill. DO NOT allow children to use or play near this grill.

• DO NOT leave the grill unattended while ON or in use.

• DO NOT allow the gas hose to come in contact with hot surfaces. Redirect the gas hose if necessary.

• DO NOT allow fat or hot drippings to fall on hose and regulator assembly. If this occurs, turn gas supply OFF at once. Empty fat tray/cup and clean the hose and regulator assembly and inspect for damage before use.

• Never cook on the grill without the fat cup/tray in position.

• Keep any electrical supply cords away from water or heated surfaces.

• DO NOT use water on a fat fire. Closing the lid to extinguish a fat fire is not possible. Use type BC dry chemical fire extinguisher or smother with dirt, sand or baking soda.

• DO NOT use while under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

• FOR OUTDOOR USE ONLY. DO NOT operate indoors or in an enclosed area such as a garage, shed or breezeway.

• Position your grill outdoors on a non-combustible level surface in a well ventilated location, a safe distance 3.1 meters from combustible materials, buildings and overhangs.

• Apartment dwellers: Check with management and follow the requirements and fire codes for using an gas grill in your apartment complex. Only use outside on the ground (not on a balcony, patio, garage, etc) with a 4.6 meters minimum clearance on all sides from any wall, structure or combustible material.

• Maintain a minimum clearance of 0.91 meters between all sides of grill, deck railings, walls or other combustible material. Not adhering to these clearances may prevent proper ventilation and can increase the risk of a fire and/or property damage, which could also result in personal injury. DO NOT use grill under overhead unprotected combustible construction.

• DO NOT use or install this grill in or on a recreational vehicle and/or boat.

• DO NOT build this model grill in any built-in or slide in construction.

• If a bristle brush is used to clean any of the cooking surfaces, ensure no loose bristles remain on the cooking surfaces prior to grilling as loose bristles may attach to food.

• DO NOT store items in cart that can catch fire or damage your grill (such as swimming pool supplies/chemicals, table cloth, wood chips).

• Grill is hot when in use. To avoid burns:

• DO NOT attempt to move the grill.

• Block the wheels so the unit does not accidentally move.

• Wear protective gloves or oven mitts.

• DO NOT touch any hot grill surfaces.

• DO NOT wear loose clothing or allow hair to come in contact with grill.

• Not for commercial use. DO NOT use this grill for anything other than its intended purpose.

GAS CYLINDER (TANK) SPECIFICATIONS AND INSTALLATION:

WARNING

• DO NOT connect to a cylinder that uses any other type of valve connection device.

• Turn off the regulator valve when your grill is not in use.

• Handle the tank with care.

• Always secure the cylinder in an upright position.

• Never connect an unregulated gas cylinder to your grill.

• DO NOT expose gas cylinders to excessive heat or ignition sources.

• DO NOT store a spare gas cylinder under or near your grill.

• Read and follow all warnings and instructions that are on the cylinder and that accompany this product.

• Whenever used outdoors, the “snap on compact” should be suitable protected against rain.

• Never use a flame to look for leaks, do it using a soap solution.

• In case of any difficulties or problems, close the gas supply immediately and contact your dealer.

• Never move or displace the gas cylinder when it is on.

DANGER

• DO NOT store a spare gas cylinder (full or empty) under or near your grill. This could cause excess pressure to be expelled resulting in fire, explosion, or severe personal injury, including death.

• Propane gas is heavier than air and will collect in low areas. Proper ventilation is extremely important. Keep the ventilation opening(s) of the gas cylinder enclosure free and clear from obstructions and debris.

• Always keep cylinder (tank) in upright position during use, transit or storage.

PLACEMENT OF THE GAS CYLINDER (TANK):

1. Place the cylinder beside the grill on a level surface.

2. Orient the cylinder such that the hose is not kinked or damaged.

This grill is supplied with a 27 mm clip on propane regulator suitable for use with propane patio gas cylinders. This appliance can also be used with low-pressure butane when fitted with the appropriate low-pressure regulator via a flexible hose (not supplied). If you wish to use butane, use a suitable 28 mbar butane regulator certified to BS EN 12864. Please consult your LPG dealer for information regarding a suitable regulator for the gas cylinder.

HOSE & REGULATOR SPECIFICATION AND INSTALLATION:

WARNING

• DO NOT use any other pressure regulator/hose assembly other than the one supplied with your grill.

• DO NOT attempt to adjust or repair a regulator.

• Ensure the regulator valve is CLOSED prior to connecting the gas cylinder to your grill. Read and follow all instructions and warnings on the supply hose safety tags. Read and follow all warnings in this manual concerning the safe use of gas cylinders and the hose and regulator before connecting cylinder to grill. Read and follow all warnings on the cylinder.
