OPERATING AND MAINTAINING YOUR GAS GRILL

BEFORE USING YOUR LP GAS GRILL

USING GAS

CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD

·This appliance can produce carbon monoxide which has no odor. Using it in an enclosed space can kill you.

·Never use this appliance indoors, on recreational vehicles, or boats.

To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury or death:

·Use only 1 pound propane cylinders in this grill.

·LP gas is not natural gas. Do not attempt to convert an LP unit to natural gas or a natural gas unit to LP gas. Any unspecified use or alteration of this unit could be unsafe and will void your warranty.

·Always use a gas appliance outdoors in an open area with good ventilation to avoid breathing toxic fumes from leaking gas, explosion or fire. In addition, the combustion products of such fuels, including liquified petroleum (LP), contain chemicals known to the state of California and other authorities to cause cancer, birth defects and other reproductive harm.

SELECTING A LOCATION

To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury or death:

·Keep grill and accessory appliances clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids.

·Locate your LP gas grill in an open area with good ventilation and at least 10 feet away from your house or building. Do not use the grill in a garage, breezeway, carport, porch, high traffic area or under any surface that can catch fire.

·Minimum clearance from sides and back of grill to adjacent combustible construction should be 36 inches from sides and 36 inches from back. Minimum horizontal clearance from sides and back of grill to adjacent combustible construction extending above top of unit should be 40 inches.

·Locate your LP gas grill on a level stable surface in an area clear of combustible material. If surface is not level, grill must be leveled by adjusting the legs. An asphalt surface (blacktop) may not be acceptable for this purpose.

·Do not use an LP gas grill indoors, on recreational vehicles, or boats.

·Do not use gas grill as a space heater.

·Make sure legs are fully open before using the grill.

Before using your gas grill perform a leak test on the Control Valves, Regulator/Hose connections and fittings. (following page)
