Following is a list of Warnings and Important Safeguards to guide you through the grilling process for a successful
and safe barbecue. It is important to remember, anytime you work with fire, there is a chance of getting burned; so
take precautions! Common sense and planning will prevent injuries. These tips are not intended to be an exhaus-
tive treatment of the subject, and should not be interpreted as precluding other procedures which would enhance
safe barbecue grill operations.
To reduce the risk of death, serious bodily injury or property damage:
· ALWAYS read the Owner’s Manual before using your grill and follow specific usage, assembly, and safety
procedures. Contact grill manufacturer if you have specific questions about the operation of your grill.
· NEVER use a barbecue grill unless all parts of the unit are firmly in place and the grill is stable.
· DO NOT alter grill in any manner.
· NEVER use gasoline, kerosene, alcohol or other volatile fluids as a starter. They can explode or flash resulting
in serious burns and/or property damage.
· DO NOT use charcoal grill as a space heater.
· DO NOT use aerosols or store flammable liquids or materials near this charcoal grill. Cap Lighter Fluid
immediately and place a safe distance from the grill.
· Instant light briquettes already have the starter blended in, DO NOT use lighter fluid, an electric starter,
solid or metal chimney starters.
· DO NOT add more instant light briquettes once the fire has been lit. To avoid flame-ups,
unpleasant fumes and odors, add regular charcoal briquettes if needed.
· Once the barbecue grill has been lit, DO NOT touch the charcoal briquettes/wood chunks to see if they are hot.
· NEVER add lighter fluid to already hot or warm coals.
· DO NOT close hood on flaming charcoal. If closed and re-opened, the flames could leap out and burn.
· DO NOT wear loose clothing (example: hanging shirt tails, clothing with frills, etc.) around a charcoal grill
while in use or hot.
· DO NOT lean your body over the charcoal grill when lighting it, while it is hot or is in use.
· DO NOT touch hot surfaces. Use heat resistant gloves, long-handled tongs, or barbecue mitts at all times
since the grill will become very hot.
· Keep all electrical cords away from a hot grill.
· Remove all tripping hazards from grill and grill area before lighting and using your grill.
· DO NOT move a charcoal grill when in use or hot.
· DO NOT allow children to operate or play near a charcoal grill. Keep animals and bystanders out of the grill area.
· DO NOT leave grill unattended.
· NEVER cover entire cooking grid with aluminum foil.
· ALWAYS use a meat thermometer to ensure food is cooked to a safe temperature.
· ALWAYS allow grill to cool before handling parts or cleaning.
· To avoid a fire, allow coals to burn out completely and let the ashes cool for 48 hours before disposing of them.
· DO NOT attempt to extinguish a grease fire with water or other liquids. Have an ABC fire extinguisher nearby.
· ALWAYS have an ABC fire extinguisher, baking soda, a bucket of sand or a garden hose ready
in case of an uncontrolled fire.
· DO NOT use appliance for other than its intended use.
