leaking gas and cause a fire or explosion which

could result in property damage, personal injury or

death.

surfaces and dripping grease. Avoid unneces-

sary twisting of hose. Visually inspect hose

prior to each use for cuts, cracks, excessive wear or other damage. If the hose appears

damaged do not use the gas grill. Call Sears
