WARNING!

 Follow these guidelines to prevent this colorless, odorless gas from poisoning 

you, your family or others:

•  Know the symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning: headache, dizziness, weakness, 

nausea, vomiting, sleepiness, and confusion. Carbon monoxide reduces the blood’s 

ability to carry oxygen. Low blood oxygen levels can result in loss of consciousness 

and death.

• 

See a doctor if you and others develop cold or flu-like symptoms while cooking or 

in the vicinity of this appliance. Carbon monoxide poisoning, which can easily be 

mistaken for cold or flu, is often detected too late.

• 

Alcohol consumption and drug use increase the effects of carbon monoxide poisoning. 

Carbon monoxide is especially toxic to mother and child during pregnancy, infants, the 

elderly, smokers, and people with blood or circulatory system problems, such as anemia, 

or heart disease.

WARNING!

 Do not use the barbecue in a confined and/or habitable space e.g. houses, 

tents, caravans, motor homes, boats. Danger of carbon monoxide poisoning fatality.

WARNING! 

If fire occurs:

• 

Keep away from the appliance and immediately call your local fire department.

• 

Do not try to move appliance, smother fire, or put water on the fire.

•  Keep the appliance clean – refer to the Care and Maintenance Instructions.

CAUTION! 

Never use gasoline, gasoline-type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or 

similar liquids to start or ‘freshen up’ a fire in this appliance. Keep all such liquids well away 

from the appliance when in use. 

WARNING!

•  Do not use heating grade pellets. Use only cooking grade pellets manufactured of 100% 

natural wood that is intended for pellet grill usage.

• 

We recommended using pellets with the following specifications: 8,000-8,500 BTU/LB 

with ash content less than 1%.

•  Do not use pellet fuel labeled as having additives.

•  Never put wood chips or chunks into the hopper.

•  Only use dry pellets. If the grill was stored with the hopper full, check the pellets to 

ensure that they are completely dry before use. Hardwood pellets can absorb moisture 

in wet or humid environments, causing them to expand and possibly obstruct or jam the 

auger system.

• 

Never allow the hopper to empty while the grill is in operation. Make sure to fill the pellet 

hopper with enough pellets before use or refill the pellet hopper as necessary.
