PRECAUTIONS
When using the grill, do not touch the grill rack,
burner grate or immediate surroundings as these
areas become extremely hot and could cause
burns. Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp
potholders on hot surfaces may cause burns from
steam. Do not use a towel or bulky cloth in place or
potholders. Do not let potholders touch hot portions
of the grill rack.
Grease is flammable. Let hot grease cool before
attempting to handle it. Avoid letting excess grease
deposits collect in the grease tray at the bottom of
the grill’s firebox. Clean often.
DO NOT USE ALUMINUM FOIL TO LINE THE
GRILL RACKS OR GRILL BOTTOM
. This can
severely upset combustion air flow or trap
excessive heat in the control area.
For proper lighting and performance of the burners
keep the burner ports clean. It is necessary to clean
them periodically for optimum performance. The
burners will only operate in one position and must
be mounted correctly for safe operation.
Clean the grill with caution. Avoid steam burns; do
not use a wet sponge or cloth to clean the grill while
it is hot. Some cleaners produce noxious fumes or
can ignite if applied to a hot surface.
INSECT WARNING!!! Spiders and insects can
nest in the burners of this and any other grill,
and cause the gas to flow improperly. This is a
very dangerous condition which can cause a
fire to occur behind the value panel, thereby
damaging the grill and making it unsafe to
operate. Inspect the grill twice a year.
Be sure all grill controls are turned off and the grill is
cool before using any type of aerosol cleaner on or
around the grill. The chemical that produces the
spraying action could, in the presence of heat,
ignite or cause metal parts to corrode.
Do not use the grill for cooking excessively fatty
meats or products, which promote flare-ups. Do not
operate the grill under unprotected combustible
construction. Use only in well ventilated areas. Do
not use in buildings, garages, sheds, breezeways or
other such enclosed areas.
THIS UNIT IS FOR
OUTDOOR USE ONLY.
Keep the area surrounding the grill free from
combustible materials, trash, or combustible fluids
and vapors such as gasoline or charcoal lighter
fluid. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and
ventilation air. If the unit is stored indoors ensure
that it is cool. If propane is used, the cylinder must
be unhooked and the propane cylinder stored
outside in a well ventilated area, out of the reach of
children.
DO NOT USE BRIQUETTES OF ANY KIND IN
THE GRILL.
The Chateau Grill is designed for optimum
performance without the use of briquettes. Do not
place briquettes on the radiant as this will block off
the area for the grill burners to vent. Adding
briquettes can damage ignition components and
knobs, and void the warranty.
Keep the back of the cart free and clear from
debris. Keep any electrical supply cord, or the
rotisserie motor cord away from the heated areas of
the grill.
Never use the grill in extremely windy conditions. If
located in a consistently windy area (oceanfront,
mountaintop, etc.) a windbreak will be required (see
below). Always adhere to the specified clearance.
NEVER USE A DENTED OR RUSTY PROPANE
TANK
CLEARANCE
To Non-Combustible Construction
A minimum of 3” clearance from the back of the grill
to non-combustible construction is required for the

proximity to traffic paths and keeping any gas
supply lines as short as possible. Locate the grill
only in a well-ventilated area. Never locate the grill
in a building, garage, breezeway, shed or other
such enclosed areas without an approved
ventilation system. During heavy use, the grill will
produce a lot of smoke. Lock the wheels after the
grill is placed in a suitable position according to the
sticker located beneath the right door.
