might otherwise be sufficient to ignite nearby combustible or volatile substances.
Always locate this grill where there will be ample combustion and ventilation air,
but never position it in the direct path of a strong wind.
Never allow the grill to operate while unattended to prevent uncontrolled grease fires
from erupting.

Never attempt to move this grill while it is in operation or while it is still hot to prevent possible personal injury.
