Safety Instruction continued
Do not heat unopened food containers. A
Use a covered hand when opening the grill lid.
Never lean over an open grill.
When lighting a burner, pay close attention to what you are doing. Make certain you are aware of which burner you are lighting, so your body and clothing remain clear of open flames.
When using the grill, do not touch the grill rack, burner grate or immediate surroundings as these areas become extremely hot and could cause burns. Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may cause steam burns. Do not use a towel or bulky cloth in place or potholders. Do not allow potholders to touch hot portions of the grill rack.
Grease is flammable. Let hot grease cool before attempting to handle it. Do not allow grease deposits to collect in the grease tray at the bottom of the grill’s firebox. Clean the grease tray often.
Do not use aluminum foil to line the grill racks or grill bottom. This can severely upset combustion air flow or trap excessive heat in the control area.
For proper lighting and performance of the burners keep the burner ports clean. It is necessary to clean them periodically for optimum performance. The burners will only operate in one position and must be mounted correctly for safe operation.
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 toxic fumes or can ignite if applied to a hot surface.
Turn off grill controls and make certain the grill is cool before using any type of aerosol cleaner on or around the grill. The chemical that produces the spraying action could, in the presence of heat, ignite or cause metal parts to corrode.
Do not use the grill to cook excessively fatty meats or other products which promote flare – ups.
Do not operate the grill under unprotected combustible constructions. Use only in well ventilated areas. Do not use in buildings, garages, sheds, breezeways or other such enclosed areas.
Keep the area surrounding the grill free from combustible materials including fluids, trash, and vapors such as gasoline or charcoal lighter fluid. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and air ventilation.
