SAFETY INFORMATION

IMPORTANT

We urge you to read this manual carefully and to follow the recommendations enclosed. This will help assure you of the most enjoyable and trouble-free operation of your new Ducane® Gas Grill. We also advise you to keep this manual for future reference.

WARNING: Your grill has been designed to operate using only the gas specified on the rating plate. Do not attempt to operate your grill on other gases. Failure to follow this warning could lead to a fire hazard and bodily harm, and will void your warranty.

CAUTION: FOR YOUR SAFETY- Do not store any flammable materials in any cabinets beneath the grill burner box or in the vicinity of your grill.

WARNING: Be sure to have your LP (propane) tank filled by a reputable propane dealer. An incorrectly filled or an overfilled LP tank can be dangerous. The overfilled condition combined with the warming of the LP tank (a hot summer day, tank left in the sun) can cause LP gas to be released by the pressure relief valve on the tank since the temperature increase causes the propane to expand. LP gas released from the tank is flammable and can be explosive. WARNING: (a) Do not store a spare gas supply cylinder under or near this appliance; (b) Never fill the cylinder beyond 80 percent full; and (c) If the information in “(a)” and “(b)” is not followed exactly, a fire causing death or serious injury may occur.

WARNING: Keep any electrical supply cord and the fuel supply hose away from any heated surfaces.

Do not build this model of grill in any built-in or slide in construction. Ignoring this Warning could cause a fire or an explosion that can damage property and cause serious bodily injury or death.
