The burning of gas fuel generates some by­products, which are on the list of substances,
which are known by the State of California to
cause cancer or reproductive harm. California
law requires businesses to warn customers of
potential exposure to such substances. To
minimize exposure to these substances, always
operate this unit according to the use and care
manual, ensuring you provide good ventilation
when cooking with gas.

SAFETY PRACTICES TO AVOID
PERSONAL INJURY

When properly cared for, your stainless steel
grill will give safe, reliable service for many
years. However, extreme care must be used
since the grill produces intense heat and that
can increase accident potential. When using
this appliance basic safety practices must be
followed, including the following:

Read this Care and Use Manual carefully and
completely before using your grill to reduce the
risk of fire, burn hazard or other injury.

Do not repair or replace any part of the grill
unless specifically recommended in this manual.
All other service should be referred to a
qualified technician.

CHILDREN SHOULD NOT BE LEFT
ALONE OR UNATTENDED IN AN AREA
WHERE THE GRILL IS BEING USED.
NEVER ALLOW THEM TO SIT, STAND OR
PLAY ON OR AROUND THE GRILL AT
ANY TIME.

PRECAUTIONS

DO NOT STORE ITEMS THAT ATTRACT
CHILDEN AROUND OR BELOW THE
GRILL OR IN THE CART. NEVER ALLOW
CHILDREN TO CRAWL INSIDE OF THE
CART.

Never let clothing, pot holders or other
flammable materials come in contact with or
too close to any grate, burner or hot surface
until it has cooled. Fabric may ignite and
result in personal injury.

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. These types of
materials may break with sudden temperature
changes. Use only on low or medium heat
settings according to the manufacturer’s
directions.

Do not heat unopened food containers as a
build-up of pressure may cause the container
to burst.

Use a covered hand when opening the grill lid.
Never lean over an open grill.

WHEN LIGHTING A BURNER, ALWAYS
PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO WHAT YOU
ARE DOING. BE CERTAIN YOU ARE
TURNING THE IGNITER LABELED FOR
THE BURNER YOU INTEND ON USING.

When using the grill, do not touch the grill
rack, burner grate or immediate surroundings
as these areas become extremely hot and
could cause burns. Use only dry potholders.

Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may
cause burns from steam. Do not use a towel or
bulky cloth in place of potholders. Do not let
potholders touch hot portions of the grill rack.

Grease is flammable. Let hot grease cool before
attempting to handle it. Avoid letting excess
grease deposits collect in the grease tray at the
bottom of the grill’s firebox. Clean often.

DO NOT USE ALUMINUM FOIL TO LINE
THE GRILL RACKS OR GRILL BOTTOM.

This can severely upset combustion air flow or
trap excessive heat in the control area.

For proper lighting and performance of the
burners keep the burner ports clean. It is
necessary to clean them periodically for
optimum performance. The burners will only
operate in one position and must be mounted
correctly for safe operation.

Clean the grill with caution. Avoid steam burns;
do not use a wet sponge or cloth to clean the
grill while it is hot. Some cleaners produce
noxious fumes or can ignite if applied to a hot
surface.

INSECT WARNING!!! Spiders and insects can
nest in the burners of this and any other grill,
and cause the gas to flow improperly. This is a
very dangerous condition which can cause a
fire to occur behind the valve panel, thereby
damaging the grill and making it unsafe to
operate. Inspect the grill twice a year.

Be sure all grill controls are turned off and the
grill is cool before using any type of aerosol
cleaner on or around the grill. The chemical
that produces the spraying action could, in the
presence of heat, ignite or cause metal parts to
corrode.

PRECAUTIONS

Do not use the grill for cooking excessively
fatty meats or products which promote flare­ups. Do not operate the grill under unprotected
combustible construction. Use only in well
ventilated areas. Do not use in buildings,
garages, sheds, breezeways or other such
enclosed areas. THIS UNIT IS FOR

OUTDOOR USE ONLY.

Keep the area surrounding the grill free from
combustible materials, trash, or combustible
fluids and vapors such as gasoline or charcoal
lighter fluid. A minimum of 24” clearance
away from combustible material. Do not
obstruct the flow of combustion and
ventilation air. If the unit is stored indoors
ensure that it is cool. If propane is used, the
cylinder must be unhooked and the propane
cylinder stored outside in a well ventilated
area, out of the reach of children.

DO NOT USE BRIQUETTES OF ANY KIND
IN THE GRILL.

This stainless steel grill is designed for
optimum performance without the use of
briquettes. Do not place briquettes on the
radiant as this will block off the area for the
grill burners to vent. Adding briquettes can
damage ignition components and knobs, and
void the warranty.

Keep the back of the cart free and clear from
debris. Keep any electrical supply cord, or the
rotisserie motor cord away from the heated
areas of the grill.

Never use the grill in extremely windy
conditions. If located in a consistently windy
area (oceanfront, mountaintop, etc.) a
windbreak will be required (see below). Always
adhere to the specified clearance.

NEVER USE A DENTED OR RUSTY
PROPANE TANK.

PLACEMENT OF THE GRILL

CLEARANCE

To Non-Combustible Construction

A minimum of 3” clearance from the back of
the grill to non-combustible construction is
required for the lid to open fully.

DO NOT INSTALL THIS UNIT INTO
COMBUSTIBLE ENCLOSURES!

LOCATION

When determining a suitable location take
into account concerns such as exposure to
wind, proximity to traffic paths and keeping
any gas supply lines as short as possible.

Locate the grill only in a well-ventilated area. Never
locate the grill in a building, garage, breezeway,
shed or other such enclosed areas without an
approved ventilation system. During heavy use, the
grill will produce a lot of smoke. After the grill is
placed in a suitable position, lock the wheels
according to the sticker located beneath the right
door. Keep any electrical supply cord and the fuel
supply hose away from any heated surfaces.
Storage of an outdoor gas cooking appliance indoor
is permissible only if the cylinder is disconnected
and removed from the appliance.

This outdoor cooking gas appliance shall be used
only outdoors and shall not be used in a building,
garage or any other enclosed area. This appliance is
not intended to be installed on recreational vehicles
and/or boats.
