WARNING

1.This cooker is to be used Outdoors Only. Do not operate indoors (house, tent, garage) or in any unventilated or enclosed area. In windy weather, cooker should be located in an outdoor area that is protected from the wind.

2.Only use cooker on a level, noncombustible, stable surface (concrete, ground, etc.) Do not use on wooden or other surfaces that could burn. Do not place cooker within 10 feet of materials that could burn (house, fence, tall grass, etc.)

3.Do not use on apartment balconies, campers or patios.

4.Do not leave cooker unattended when hot or in use. Only adults are to operate this cooker; keep children and pets safely away. Carefully monitor all activity around cooker to avoid burns or other injuries.

5.Hot oil or water can cause severe burns and permanent disfigurement; use caution and common sense when operating this product.

Do not move cooker while in use or while pan contains hot liquid.

Use caution when walking or standing near cooker as splattered oil may have created a slick surface.

Avoid bumping into cooker or pan/pan handle to prevent hot liquid spills or overturning cooker.

Should oil spill-over/boil-over occur, be sure to check that flame was not extinguished by liquid. Gas could accumulate creating a highly flammable and very dangerous situation. Allow all gas to dissipate prior to relighting cooker.

Smoking oil is an indication that the oil is too hot and may ignite. Reduce flame immediately to avoid igniting oil. Never exceed 375° F.

Frozen food should be thawed before placing in hot oil to avoid burns from splattered oil.

Use extreme caution when lifting basket out of pan; lift slowly to ensure pan and basket are not stuck together and to allow oil to drain into pan. As contents may be heavy and oil may drip or splatter from basket, extra attention must be used during this process to avoid overturning pan of hot liquid.

Always hang basket directly over pan (see illustration on page 5).

Avoid touching hot surfaces, wear oven mitts to protect your hands and non-slick shoes.

6.Propane gas is extremely flammable, follow these instructions:

Use only LP gas cylinders marked "Propane" which are U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) certified.

Always use the gas pressure regulator supplied with this product which is regulated for an outlet pressure of 15 PSI; the use of other regulators or no regulator could result in dangerous gas leakage.

Check all gas connections by following directions in the "Gas Leak Testing" section on page 4 of this manual. Never test for gas leaks with a lighted match or open flame. Do not operate this cooker with a gas leak.
