•Keep ventilation openings in cylinder enclosure (grill cart) free and clear of debris.

•Do not store objects or materials inside the grill cart enclosure that would block the flow of combustion air to the underside of either the control panel or the firebox bowl.

•The regulator may make a humming or whistling noise during operation. This will not affect safety or use of grill.

For Safe Use of Your Grill and to Avoid Serious Injury:

•Do not let children operate or play near grill.

•Keep grill area clear and free from materials that burn.

•Do not block holes in sides or back of grill.

•Check burner flames regularly.

•Use grill only in well-ventilated space. NEVER use in enclosed space such as carport, garage, porch, covered patio, or under an overhead structure of any kind.

•Do not use charcoal or ceramic briquets in a gas grill.

•Do not cover grates with aluminum foil or any other material. This will block burner ventilation and create a potentially dangerous condition resulting in property damage and/or personal injury.
