WARNING

When grilling, grease from meat may drip into the charcoal and cause a grease fire. If this should happen close lid and turn off gas knobs to suffocate the flame. Do not use water to extinguish grease fires.

Use caution since flames can flare-up when fresh air suddenly comes in contact with fire. When opening the lid, keep hands, face and body a safe distance from hot steam and flame flare-ups.

Never place more than 15 pounds (6.8 kg) on side tables. Do not lean on the side tables. Always ensure side tables are properly seated.

Do not exceed a temperature of 400°F (205°C). Do not allow charcoal and/or wood to rest on the walls of grill. Doing so will greatly reduce the life of the metal and finish of your grill.

Use caution when assembling and operating your grill to avoid scrapes or cuts from sharp edges of metal parts. Use caution when reaching into or under grill.

When opening lid, make sure it is pushed all the way open. If lid is not fully open, it could fall back to a closed position and cause bodily injury.

In windy weather, place grill in an outdoor area that is protected from the wind.

Close lid and door to suffocate flame.

Never leave coals and ashes in grill unattended. Before grill can be left unattended, remaining coals and ashes must be removed from grill. Use caution to protect yourself and property. Carefully place remaining coals and ashes in a non-combustible metal container and saturate completely with water. Allow coals and water to remain in metal container 24 hours prior to disposing.

Extinguished coals and ashes should be placed a safe distance from all structures and combustible materials.

With a garden hose, completely wet the surface beneath and around grill to extinguish any ashes, coals or embers which may have fallen during the cooking or cleaning process.

After each use, clean the grill thoroughly and apply a light coat of vegetable oil to interior to prevent rusting. Cover the grill to protect it from excessive rusting.

Use caution when lifting or moving grill to prevent strains and back injuries.

We advise that a fire extinguisher be on hand. Refer to your local authority to determine proper size and type of fire extinguisher.
