SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNING: FAILURE TO READ AND FOLLOW THE SAFETY INFORMATION MAY CAUSE SERIOUS BODILY INJURY, DEATH, FIRE, OR AN EXPLOSION RESULTING IN DAMAGE TO PROPERTY.

IMPORTANT

This manual should be read thoroughly by the installer and anyone who will use or maintain the grill. The installer should leave this manual with the user. The user should retain this manual for future reference when using or cleaning the grill and to properly identify any repair parts that may be required.

WARNING

Improper installation, adjustment, service or maintenance can cause personal injury or property damage. Never modify the grill. Use only parts and accessories produced by Broilmaster. For repair service or replacement parts or accessories, contact your Broilmaster dealer. Refer- ence this manual for proper installation and maintenance instructions.

WARNING

Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors or liquids in the vicinity of this or any appliance as they may cause an explosion resulting in property damage.

CAUTION

Parts may have sharp edges. Wear leather work gloves and handle parts carefully during unpacking, assembly, and installation.

Assembly and Installation

1.Do not install this grill in or on recreational vehicles or boats.

2.Do not install or light this grill inside an enclosed area – such as a building, garage, screen porch, or gazebo.

3.Maintain proper clearance to combustibles (48” minimum on all sides). Check local codes and ordinances that may require where to place an outdoor cooking appliance from a structure.

4.Store grill outdoors in a well ventilated area.

Before Lighting

1.Place grill on a level non-combustible surface, away from combustibles such as buildings, vehicles, carports, awnings or overhangs.

2.Do not locate in windy settings. High wind can affect the cooking performance of the grill.

3.Clear the area around the grill of all combustibles such as dry leaves and bags – including the charcoal bag.

4.Empty the ash pan before each use to maintain proper air flow. The ash pan must be in place before lighting the grill.

5.Do not remove ashes from grill until charcoal is fully extin- guished and grill has completely cooled – usually 24 hours.

6.Store any coals and ashes removed from the grill in an ap-

proved non-combustible metal container with an air-tight lid to prevent re-ignition.

Lighting

1.Use only high-quality charcoal – either hardwood lump or briquettes.

Broilmaster Premium Natural Hardwood Lump Charcoal burns longer and hotter – with much better flavor.

2.Do not light with the lid closed.

3 Do not lean over grill when lighting or cooking.

4.Light the charcoal using a chimney starter, starter cubes, or an electric charcoal starter. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Never use lighter fluid in your Broilmaster grill – this will void your warranty. Do not use gasoline, kerosene or alcohol to light charcoal. The use of these or similar products could cause an explosion.

Cautions for a Hot Grill

1.Never leave a hot gill unattended.

2.Never try to move a hot grill.

3.Keep children, pets and combustibles away from a hot grill.

4.Use heat-resistant gloves (such as barbecue or oven mitts) while cooking, adjusting vents and opening doors. Avoid flammable and/or loose clothing such as long sleeves, neck- ties, scarves, and aprons. Keep hair tied back or under a hat.

5.While grilling use long-handled heat-resistant grill tools to place, turn and remove food. Keep hands and arms away from direct heat.

6.Always beware of fire hazards. Beware of dry leaves, trees, bushes, wood decking and other combustible materials in proximity of the grill while in use as they may present a fire hazard if any hot charcoal or sparks are allowed to come into contact.

7.Keep the lid closed while cooking. The Broilmaster grill per- forms best with the lid closed to control temperature, prevent flare-ups, and retain moisture.

8.Use extreme caution when opening the lid; the sudden rush of air can cause flare ups. Before fully opening the grill, lift the lid an inch a few times to allow fresh air to enter slowly.

This will control any flare ups.

9.Do not use water to control flare ups or extinguish coals.

Close the lid and adjust the air vents.

10.To extinguish coals, close lid and the top and bottom air vents completely. Allow to cool for 24 hours before removing ash and coals.

11.Always use your grill in accordance with any local codes.

CAUTION

The Broilmaster Charcoal Grill is safe when used as intended and in according to the safety guidelines. It is the user’s re- sponsibility to maintain safe operation of the grill and reason- able standards of care at all times. Always exercise extreme caution when lighting charcoal, cooking with hot charcoal, handling hot surfaces, and disposing of charcoal and ash.
