WARNING

DO NOT move grill while it is lit.

Keep outdoor cooking gas appliance area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids.

WARNING

NEVER place more than 10 pounds on a side table. DO NOT lean on grill.

NEVER use charcoal briquettes or lighter fluid in a gas grill.

Grill is hot when in use; to avoid burns, DO NOT touch any hot grill surface. Keep children and pets away from hot grill.

NEVER leave the grill unattended while it is in use.

It is your responsibility to assemble, install, operate and care for your gas grill properly.

DO NOT vent propane vapor from the cylinder before taking it to be refilled.

DO NOT use gas grill indoors or store any propane cylinder(s) indoors, including in the garage, breezeways, sheds or enclosed areas.

Under some circumstances, propane may lose the distinctive odor that was added. Keep the service valve closed and plugged or capped (as recommended by the manufacturer) when the cylinder is not connected to the appliance, including “empty” cylinders. Other strong odors may hide or mask the odor of propane. Colds, allergies, sinus congestion, and the use of tobacco, alcohol or drugs may impair your ability to detect the odor of propane.

General Installation

Installation must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with either the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1, or Propane Storage and Handling Code, CSA B149.2, as applicable.

To check local codes, see your local L.P. gas dealer listed in the Yellow Pages for recommended installation procedures and regulations.

2.Never locate the grill under an unprotected combustible material or overhang.

3.Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air. Maintain a minimum clearance of 3 inches from the back of the grill and non- combustible construction such as a concrete or brick wall.

4.Keep the ventilation opening(s) of the cylinder enclosure free and clear from debris.

5.The grill should be level and not facing directly into the wind.

WARNING

Keep any electrical supply cord and the fuel supply hose away from any heated surfaces. During assembly of grill and when attaching or replacing the L.P. gas cylinder, insure that the gas supply hose is free of kinks and is at least 3 inches away from hot surfaces such as the grill housing.

WARNING

Electrical Grounding Instructions

This outdoor cooking gas appliance is equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug for your protection against shock hazard and must be plugged directly into a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) system. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.

Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords must be used with care. The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord must be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. Keep the connection to an extension cord away from water and off the ground. Arrange the cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.

Never clean any electrical product with water or cleaning fluids. Store electrical products indoors and out of reach of children when not in use. DO NOT allow cord to touch any hot surfaces which
