CARE AND MAINTENANCE
This unit must be kept in an area free from combustible materials, gasoline and
other flammable vapors and liquids.
Make sure all openings into the grill body are free of blockages or debris and there
are no objects or materials blocking the flow of combustion or ventilation. Make
sure the legs are in the up position when using the grill.
Check burner air inlet openings (behind the inlet guard on the right end of the grill
body) for insect nests or blockages. Make sure the slots in the burner tube are clear.
When the grill is not in use, turn the control knob to the "OFF" position and remove
the propane cylinder from the regulator. Remove the regulator from the burner.
For outdoor use only. If stored indoors, detach propane cylinder and store outdoors.
Propane cylinders must be stored out of reach of children.
IMPORTANT
First-time use: It is important that the grill be lit and allowed to heat up for at least
30 minutes before any food is placed on the cooking grid. It is normal for some
smoke to appear during the initial operation of the grill. After initial heating, the
grill is ready for use. A cooking spray can be used on the cooking grids to allow easier
clean up.
THIS COOKING APPLIANCE IS FOR OUTDOOR USE ONLY AND SHALL NOT BE USED
IN A BUILDING, GARAGE OR ANY OTHER ENCLOSED AREA.
