•Do not let children operate or play near grill.

•Keep grill area clear and free from materials that burn.

•Do not block holes in bottom or back of grill.

•Check burner flames regularly.

•Use grill only in well-ventilated space. NEVER use in enclosed space such as carport, garage, porch, covered patio, or under an overhead structure of any kind.

•Do not use charcoal or ceramic briquets in a gas grill. (Unless briquets are supplied with your grill.)

•Use grill at least 3 ft. from any wall or surface. Maintain 10 ft. clearance to objects that can catch fire or sources of ignition such as pilot lights on water heaters, live electrical appliances, etc..

•Apartment Dwellers:

Check with management to learn the requirements and fire codes for using an LP gas grill in your apartment complex. If allowed, use outside on the ground floor with a three (3) foot clearance from walls or rails. Do not use on or under balconies.
