or unless you are wearing protective gear such as pot holders, protective gloves or mittens.
2. Do not alter the grill in any manner.
3. Clean and inspect the hose before each use. If there is evidence of abrasion, wear, cuts or leaks, the hose must
be replaced prior to operation. The replacement hose assembly should be in accordance with the
manufacturer’s specifications.

could open the relief valve and allow gas to escape.
