Using Gas

!DA N G E R

Carbon Monoxide Hazard

This appliance can produce carbon monoxide which has no odor. Using it in an enclosed space can kill you.

Never use this appliance indoors, on recreational vehicles, or boats.

!WARNING

To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury or death from fire or explosion:

Use only propane gas with this LP gas grill.

Do not attempt to convert an LP unit to natural gas.

Always use a gas appliance outdoors in an open area with good ventilation to avoid breathing toxic fumes from leaking gas, explosion, or fire. As with all conventional fuels, the burning process consumes oxygen and produces toxic gases, including carbon monoxide. In addition, the combustion products of such fuels, including liquefied pe- troleum (LP), contain chemicals known to the state of California and other authorities to cause cancer, birth defects, and other reproductive harm.

Any use or alteration of this unit not intended could be unsafe and will void your warranty.
