10. Do not attempt to attach this grill to the self‐contained propane system of a camper, trailer, motor home or house.

11. Do not use charcoal or lighter fluid.

12. Do not use gasoline, kerosene or alcohol for lighting. The liquid propane (LP) gas supply cylinder must be constructed and

product under any overhead enclosure or near any unprotected combustible constructions.

17. Do not use in an explosive atmosphere. Keep grill area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other

flammable vapours and liquids.

18. Do not attempt to use or assemble with missing or damaged parts. Contact customer service for replacement parts.

CAUTION ‐ Prevention of Burns

1. To avoid burns, do not touch metal parts of the grill until they have completely cooled for a t least 45 minutes or unless you

2. Do not alter the grill in any manner.

3. Clean and inspect the hose before each use. If there is evidence of abrasion, wear, cuts or leaks, the hose must be

replaced prior to operation. The replacement hose assembly should be in accordance with the manufacturer’s
specifications.

4. Move gas hoses as far away as possible from hot surfaces and dripping hot grease.

5. Never keep a filled gas container in a hot car or car trunk. Heat will cause the gas pressure to increase, which could open

the relief valve and allow gas to escape.

WARNING

Do not use this appliance under overhead combustible surface or covered area (e.g., awnings, umbrellas, porches or gazeboes).

building or combustible materials or surface before lighting it, and that no gasoline or

other volatile substances are stored in the vicinity of this grill. (See diagram to right).
The temperature of a grease fire or of the radiated heat 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
astrongwind.
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.

heat‐generating appliance because of the danger of starting a fire.

local codes, with the the Canadian Standards Association's Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code CAN/CGA‐B149.1.
