CONTROLLING FLARE-UPS

CAUTION: Putting out grease fires by only closing the lid is not possible.
• If a grease fire develops, turn control knobs to the OFF position, LP gas tank valve CLOSED. Do NOT use water on
a grease fire. This can cause grease to splatter and could result in serious burns, bodily harm or other damage.
• Do NOT leave grill unattended while preheating or burning off food residue on HIGH. If grill has not been
cleaned, a grease fire can occur.
WARNING: When cooking, fire extinguishing materials should be readily accessible. In the event of an oil/
grease fire, use type BC dry chemical fire extinguisher or smother with dirt, sand or baking soda. Do NOT
attempt to extinguish with water.
• Flare-ups are a part of cooking meats on a grill and add to the unique flavor of grilling.
• Excessive flare-ups can over-cook your food and be dangerous.
• Important: Excessive flare-ups result from build-up of grease in the bottom of your grill.
• If a grease fire occurs, close the lid AND turn control knob(s) to OFF until grease burns out. Be careful when opening the
lid as a sudden flare-up may occur.
• If excessive flare-ups occur, do NOT pour water onto the flames.

MINIMIZE FLARE-UPS

1. Trim excess fat from meats prior to cooking.
2. Cook high fat content meats on LOW setting or indirectly.
3. Ensure that your grill is on a hard, level, non-combustible surface and the grease is allowed to drain into the grease receptacle.
