the “LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS” section of this
manual.

WARNING

TESTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANS
Z21.58a •CSA 1.6a-2006 STANDARD FOR
OUTDOOR COOKING GAS APPLIANCES.
THIS GRILL IS FOR OUTDOOR USE ONLY.

Grill Installation Codes

The installation must conform with local codes or,
in the absence of local codes, with either the
national fuel gas code, ANSI Z 223.1/NFPA
54,Natural gas and Propane installation code, CSA
B149.1, or Propane Storage and Handling Code,
B149.2, or the Standard for Recreational Vehicles,
ANSI A 119.2/NFPA 1192,and CSA Z240 RV
series Recreational Vehicle Code, as applicable.

If an external electrical source is utilized: The
outdoor cooking gas appliance, when installed,
must be electrically grounded in accordance with
local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with
the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, or the
Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1.

WARNING

Keep any electrical supply cord and the fuel supply
hose away from any heated surfaces.

CAUTION: Beware of Flashback

CAUTION: Spiders and small insects
occasionally spin webs or make nests in the
grill burner tubes during transit and
warehousing. These webs can lead to gas
flow obstruction, which could result in a fire
in and around burner tubes. This type of fire
is known as “FLASH-BACK” and can cause
serious damage to your grill and create an
unsafe operating condition for the user.

Although an obstructed burner tube is not
the only cause of “FLASH-BACK”, it is the
most common cause.

To reduce the chance of “FLASH-BACK”,
you must clean the burner tubes before
assembling your grill, and at least once a
month in late summer or early fall when
spiders are most active. Also perform this
burner tube cleaning procedure if your grill
has not been used for an extended period of
time. A clogged tube can be lead to a fire
beneath the grill.

Visually check the burner flames prior to each
use, the flames should look like this picture, if
they do not, refer to the burner main tenancy
part of this manual.

WARNING

Your grill will get very hot. Never lean over the
cooking area while using your grill. Do not touch
cooking surfaces, grill housing, Lid or any other grill
parts while the grill is in operation, or unit the gas
grill has cooked down after use.

Failure to comply with these instructions may
result in serious bodil

injury.

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 and beneath
the valve panel, thereby damaging the grill and
making it unsafe to operate. Inspect the grill twice a

ear.

INSPECT WARNING:

Keep a spray bottle of soapy water near the gas
supply valve and check the connections before
each use.

WARNING

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

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

DO NOT LEAVE THE GRILL UNATTENDED
WHILE COOKING.

PROPER PLACEMENT AND CLEARANCE
OF GRILL

• Never use your gas grill in a garage, porch, shed,
breezeway or any other enclosed area. Your gas grill is
to be used outdoors only. Minimum clearance from
sides and back of unit to combustible construction, 24
inches (61cm) from sides and 24 inches (61cm) from
back.

• DO NOT uses this appliance under overhead

combustible surfaces. This outdoor cooking gas
appliance is not intended to install in or on recreational
vehicles and/or boats.

• Do not obstruct the flow of ventilation air around the gas
grill housing. Only use the regulator and the hose
assembly supplied with your gas grill. Replacement
regulators and hose assemblies must be those specified

in this manual.

• The regulator and hose assembly must be inspected

before each use of the grill. If there is excessive
abrasion or wear or if the hose is cut, it must be
replaced prior to the grill being put into operation. Keep
the fuel supply hose away from any heated surfaces and
dripping grease.

• Avoid unnecessary twisting of hose. Visually inspect the
hose prior to each use for cuts, cracks, excessive wear
or other damage. If the hose appears damaged do not
use the gas grill.

• Never light your gas grill with the lid closed or before
checking to ensure the burner tubes are fully seated
over the gas valve orifices.

• Never allow children to operate your grill.

• DO NOT USE BRIQUETTES OF ANY KIND IN THE

GRILL.

• The 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.

• 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.

Warning

A statement that this outdoor cooking gas
appliance is not intended to be installed in
or on boats. For other than RV grills, a
statement that this appliance is not
intended to be installed in or on
recreational vehicles.

SAFETY PRACTICES TO AVOID
PERSONAL INJURY

When properly cared for, your 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:

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.

This outdoor cooking gas appliance is not
intended to install in or on recreational
vehicles and/or boats.

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.

DO NOT STORE ITEMS OF INTEREST TO
CHILDREN AROUND OR BELOW THE GRILL
OR IN THE ISLAND. NEVER ALLOW
CHILDREN TO CRAWL INSIDE OF THE
ISLAND.

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, heatproof 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.

PRECAUTIONS

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.

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.

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.
Do not use the grill for cooking excessively fatty
meats or products, which promote flare-ups. 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. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and
ventilation air.
