•California Proposition 65 Warning: The burning of gas cooking fuel generates some by-products which are on the list of substances and are known by the State of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm. California law requires that businesses warn consumers of potential exposure to such substances. To minimize exposure to these substances, always operate this gas grill according to the use and care instructions found in this manual. Be certain to provide adequate ventilation when cooking.

•Do not modify original equipment. Your grill has been designed and engineered to operate safely as outlined in this manual. Only replace components with genuine PGS replacement parts, which are available from your local dealer and/or distributor. Use of non-genuine parts may result in inferior performance and/or safety hazards and will void the warranty.

•Children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where the grill is in operation. We suggest placement of your grill well away from areas where children play. Do not store items that may interest children in or around the grill, in the cart, or in the masonry enclosure. Never allow children to crawl or play inside a masonry enclosure.

Never allow loose clothing, potholders, synthetic materials, or other flammable materials to come in contact with the grill and/or its parts. Flammable materials could ignite and cause personal injury and/or property damage.

•Never move your gas grill when operating. Never move grill when HOT. Never cover grill when HOT.

•Do not heat up unopened food containers on the grill as a buildup of pressure may cause the container to burst.

•The LP cylinder that you use with your grill should be equipped with an overfill protection device (OPD). If you use a tank exchange system, be sure to exchange this tank for another tank with the same safety system.

•Use an insulated glove when opening and operating the grill. Open grill lid slowly to allow heat and smoke to escape before fully opening.
