WARNING

For Safe Use of Your Grill and to Avoid Serious 
Injury:
•

Do not let children operate or play near grill. 

•

Keep grill area clear and free from materials that burn.

•

Do not block holes in sides or back of grill. 

•

Check burner flames regularly.

•

Use grill only in well-ventilated space. NEVER use in 
enclosed space such as carport, garage, porch, 
covered patio, or under an overhead structure of any 
kind.

•

Do not use charcoal or ceramic briquets in a gas grill. 
(

Unless

briquets are supplied with your grill.)

• Use grill at least 3 ft. from any wall or surface. 

Maintain 10 ft. clearance to objects that can catch fire 
or sources of ignition such as pilot lights on water 
heaters, live electrical appliances, etc.

• Apartment Dwellers:

Check with management to learn the requirements 
and fire codes for using an LP gas grill in your 
apartment complex. If allowed, use outside on the 
ground floor with a three (3) foot clearance from walls 
or rails. Do not use on or under balconies.

• NEVER attempt to light burner with lid closed. A 

buildup of non-ignited gas inside a closed grill is 
hazardous.

• Never operate grill with LP cylinder out of correct 

position specified in assembly instructions. 

• Always close LP cylinder valve and remove 

coupling nut before moving LP cylinder from 
specified operation position.

Before opening LP cylinder valve, check the coupling nut for 
tightness.

s

When grill is not in use, turn off all control knobs and LP 
cylinder valve.

Never move grill while in operation or still hot.

Use long-handled barbecue utensils and oven mitts to avoid 
burns and splatters.

s

The grease tray 

must 

be inserted into grill and emptied after 

each use. Do not remove grease tray until grill has 
completely cooled.

s

Clean grill often, preferably after each cookout. If a bristle

brush is used to clean any of the grill cooking surfaces,

ensure no loose bristles remain on cooking surfaces prior to
grilling. It is not recommended to clean cooking surfaces
while grill is hot.

s

If you notice grease or other hot material dripping from grill 
onto valve, hose or regulator, turn off gas supply at once. 
Determine the cause, correct it, then clean and inspect valve, 
hose and regulator before continuing. Perform a leak test.

s

Keep ventilation openings in cylinder enclosure (grill cart) free 
and clear of debris.

s

Do not store objects or materials inside the grill cart 
enclosure that would block the flow of combustion air to the 
underside of either the control panel or the firebox bowl.

s

The regulator may make a humming or whistling noise during 
operation. This will not affect safety or use of grill.

s

If you have a grill problem see the 

"Troubleshooting Section"

.

s

If the regulator frosts, turn off grill and LP cylinder valve 
immediately. This indicates a problem with the cylinder and it 
should not be used on any product. Return to supplier!

CAUTION
