SAFETY PRACTICES & PRECAUTIONS

■When using the side burners always use flat bottomed pans which are large enough to cover the side burner. Adjust the flame so that it heats only the bottom of the pan to avoid ignition of clothing. Position handles inward away from open edges of the unit to avoid burns associated with unintentional spillovers. Hold the handle of the pan to prevent movement of it when turning or stirring food. For proper lighting and performance of the burners keep the ports clean. It is necessary to clean periodically for optimum performance.

■Clean the grill with caution. Avoid steam burns; do not use a wet sponge or cloth to clean the grill while it is hot. Some cleaners produce noxious fumes or can ignite if applied to a hot surface.

■Be sure all grill controls are turned off and the grill is cool before using any type of aerosol cleaner on or around the grill. The chemical that produces the spraying action could, in the presence of heat, ignite or cause metal parts to corrode.

■Do not use the grill for cooking excessively fatty meats or products which promote flare-ups.

■Never grill without the drip pan and grease tray in place and pushed all the way to the back of the grill. Without it hot grease could leak downward and produce a fire or explosion hazard.

■Do not operate the grill under unprotected combustible construction. Use only in well ventilated areas. Do not use in buildings, garages, sheds, breezeway, covered structure or other such enclosed areas. This unit is for outdoor use only.

■If a cart unit is stored indoors, ensure that it is cool, fold the side shelf down, then push, never pull, the grill and never push or pull on the side shelves. If LP, the cylinder must be unhooked and the LP cylinder stored outside in a well ventilated area, out of reach of children.

■Never use the grill in a windy area.

■Do not use charcoal or lighter fluid in the outdoor grill.

■Keep any electrical supply cord, or the rotisserie motor cord away from the heated areas of the grill and water (pools, fountains, puddles).

■Never use a dented or rusty LP tank. Keep the ventilation openings of the cylinder enclosure free and clear from debris.

■Use only dry potholders; moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may cause burns from steam. Do not use a towel or bulky cloth in place of potholders. Do not let potholders touch hot portions of the grill or burner grate.

■Have an ABC rated Fire Extinguisher accessible – never attempt to extinguish a grease fire with water or other liquids.

■To avoid burns when cooking, use long handled BBQ tools.

■Do not move the appliance during its use.

■This unit is for outdoor use only! Do not operate in enclosed areas. This could result in carbon monoxide build- up which would result in injury or death.

■When using a grill, be sure that all parts of the unit are firmly in place and that the grill is stable (can’t be tipped over).

■To put out flare-ups, adjust the controls to lower the temperature
