Cal Flame G3000 owner manual Precautions Regarding Children, Other Common Sense Precautions

Read This First!

•Do not use the grill as a storage area for flammable or plastic items, which may ignite. Do not store any materials inside or near barbecue island. Do not store the liquid propane (LP) cylinder in the vicinity of this or any other appliance when it is not being used.

•Never line the grill or side burners with aluminum foil.

•When the unit is not in use, be sure to turn off the gas at the LP tank.

•Never locate this appliance in an enclosed room, under a sealed overhead structure, or in any type of enclosed area such as a garage, shed, or breezeway. Keep clear of trees and shrubs.

•Do not place this grill under or near windows or vents that can be opened into your home.

Precautions Regarding Children

•Never leave children unattended in the area where the grill is being used.

•Do not store items of interest to children around or below the grill or island.

•Never allow children to sit or stand on any part of the grill or island.

Other Common Sense Precautions

•Never leave the grill and side burners unattended while using high flame settings. Boil-overs cause smoking and greasy boil-overs may ignite.

•A lways use the proper size pan. Select utensils with flat bottoms large enough to cover the burner. The use of under-sized utensils exposes the sides of the utensils to direct contact with a portion of the flame. This can scorch utensils and hamper cleanup. Excessive flames on large stainless steel pots can result in permanent discoloration. For best results, we recommend commercial quality aluminum pans and utensils.

•Always position handles of utensils inward, so they do not extend over adjacent work areas or cook- ing areas. This reduces the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to acciden- tal contact with the utensils.

•Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a flaming pan. Turn the appliance off and smother the flaming pan with a tight-fitting lid, a cookie sheet or a flat tray. For flaming grease outside of the pan, smother it with baking soda or use a dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

•Never let clothing, potholders or other flammable materials come in contact with or close to any grate, burner or hot surface until it has cooled. Fabric may ignite and result in personal injury.

•When using the grill, do not touch the grill rack, burner grate, or immediate surroundings, as these areas become extremely hot and can cause burns.

•P roper apparel is a safety consideration. Never wear loose fitting or hanging garments while using your new grill.

•Only use dry potholders - do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of potholders. Moist or damp potholders used on hot surfaces can cause burns.

•Do not heat any unopened glass or metal container of food on the grill. Pressure may build up and cause the container to burst, possibly resulting in serious personal injury or damage to the grill.
