SAFETY PRACTICES & PRECAUTIONS
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE!
Certain Liquid Propane dealers may fill liquid propane cylinders for use in the grill beyond cylinder filling capacity.
This "Overfilling" may create a dangerous condition.
"Overfilled" tanks can build up excess pressure. As a safety device, the tank pressure relief valve will vent
propane gas vapor to relieve this excess pressure. This vapor is combustible and therefore can be ignited. To
reduce this danger, you should take the following safety precautions:
1. When you have your tank filled, be sure you tell the supplier to fill it to no more than 3/4 (75%) of its total
capacity.
2. If you own or use a spare tank, or have a disconnected tank, you should NEVER store
it near or under the grill/cart unit or heat box, or near any other ignition or heat
source. A metallic sticker with this warning is provided with the grill to remind you,
your family and all others who may use your grill of these safety
precautions. Install this sticker close to your barbeque grill.
3. Do not store a full tank in direct sunlight.
WARNING!
Do not try lighting this appliance without reading the "LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS"
section of this manual. This grill is for outdoor use only.
WARNING!
Push and hold the igniter button, turn the selected burner knob to "SEAR". If burner
does not light in 4 to 5 seconds turn knob "OFF" and wait 5 minutes before trying
again for any accumulated gas to dissipate.
WARNING: IMPORTANT!
Before each use, inspect the gas supply piping
or hose prior to turning the gas "on". If there is
evidence of cuts, wear, or abrasion, it must be
replaced prior to use.
Never leave the appliance unattended during use.
Begin by insuring proper installation and servic-
n
ing. Follow the installation instructions within
this manual. Have your grill installed by a quali-
fied installer. Have the installer show you where
the gas supply shut-off valve is located so that
you know where and how to shut off the gas to
the grill. If you smell gas, your installer has not
done a proper job of checking for leaks. If the
connections are not perfectly sealed, you can have a small leak and therefore a faint gas smell. Finding a leak is
not a "do-it-yourself " procedure. Some leaks can only be found with the burner control in the "ON" position and
this must be done by a qualified technician.
Children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where the grill is being used. Never allow them to sit,
n
stand or play on or around the grill at any time. When in use, portions of the grill get hot enough to cause severe
burns.
Do not store items of interest to children around or below the grill, in the cart or masonry enclosure. Never allow
n
children to crawl inside a cart or enclosure.
Never attach or disconnect an LP cylinder, or move or alter gas fittings when the grill is in operation or is hot.
n
Clean and perform general maintenance on the grill twice a year. Watch for corrosion, cracks, or insect activity.
n
Check the regulator, hoses, burner ports, air shutter, and venturi/valve section carefully. Always turn off gas at
the source (tank or supply line) prior to inspecting parts.
After a period of storage or non-use (such as over the winter), the gas grill should be checked for gas leaks, dete-
n
rioration, proper assembly, and burner obstructions before using.
• Always follow lighting instructions.
• Lid must be opened before lighting
the grill.
• Check for gas leaks before lighting.
• Never lean over an open grill when
lighting. Serious burns may result.
