Use a covered hand when opening the grill lid. Never lean over an open grill.
WHEN LIGHTING A BURNER, ALWAYS PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO WHAT YOU ARE DOING. BE CERTAIN YOU ARE TURNING THE IGNITER LABELED FOR THE BURNER YOU INTEND ON USING.
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 burns from steam. Do not use a towel or bulky cloth in place of potholders. Do not let potholders touch hot portions of the grill rack.
Grease is flammable. Let hot grease cool before attempting to handle it. Avoid letting excess grease deposits collect in the grease tray at the bottom of the grill’s firebox. Clean 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. 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.
INSECT WARNING!!! Spiders and insects can nest in the burners of this and any other grill, and cause the gas to flow improperly. This is a very dangerous condition which can cause a fire to occur behind the valve panel, thereby damaging the grill and making it unsafe to operate. Inspect the grill twice a year.
Be sure all grill controls are turned off and 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.
