Important Safety Instructions

Stainless Steel Outdoor Cooking Center

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

• Use this appliance only for its intended use

 

as described in this guide.

 

• Children should not be left alone or

 

unattended in an area where the cooking

 

center is being used.

 

• Do not leave the cooking center unattended

 

while cooking.

 

• 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, heat-proof glass

 

ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed

 

utensils are suitable for grill use. Unsuitable

 

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 pot holder when opening the roll top

 

lid. Open the lid slowly to allow heat and

 

steam to escape.

 

• Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp pot

 

holders on hot surfaces may result in burns

 

from steam. Do not use a towel or other bulky

 

cloth in place of a pot holder. Do not let pot

 

holders touch hot portions of the grill rack or

 

burner grates.

 

• Never lean over an open grill.

 

• Pay close attention when lighting a burner.

 

Be certain you are rotating the igniter labeled

 

for the burner you intend on using.

 

• When using the grill, do not touch the grill

 

rack, burner grate or immediate surrounding

 

areas as these areas become extremely hot

 

and could cause burns. Keep children away!

 

• Grease is flammable. Let hot grease cool

 

before attempting to handle it. Avoid letting

 

grease deposits collect in the drip pans. Clean

 

the drip pans often. (On some models)

 

• Do not use aluminum foil to line drip

 

pans or grill racks. This can severely upset

 

combustion air flow or trap excessive heat in

 

the control area. The result of this can be

6

melted knobs or rotary igniters.

When using the range-top burners always use flat-bottomed pans which are large enough to cover the burner. Adjust the flame so that it heats only the bottom of the pan to avoid ignition of clothing. Position handles inward away from open edges of the unit to avoid burns associated with spillovers. Hold the handle of the pan with a pot holder when turning or stirring food.

Do not use the grill for cooking excessively fatty meats or products which promote flare-ups.

Never grill without the drip pan in place and pushed all the way to the back of the grill. Without it, hot grease could leak downward and produce a fire or explosion hazard.

Never rotisserie cook without the basting pan in place and pushed all the way to the back of the grill. Without it, hot grease could leak downward and produce a fire or explosion hazard.

For proper lighting and performance of the burners it is necessary to keep the ports clean.

Clean the grill with caution. To 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.

Do not operate the cooking center 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.

Do not locate the cooking center where the grill exhaust is directed at combustible materials, windows (open or closed), doorways, etc. The grill vents combustion gases and smoke to the back of the appliance.

Keep the area surrounding the cooking center 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.

Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an INTERNAL 160°F. and poultry to at least an INTERNAL 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against foodborne illness.
