WARNING
For Safe Use of Your Barbecue and to Avoid Serious
Injury:
• Do not let children operate or play near barbecue.
• Keep barbecue area clear and free from materials that burn.
• Do not block holes in sides or back of barbecue.
• Check burner flames regularly.
• Use barbecue only in well-ventilated space. NEVER use in
enclosed space such as carport, garage, porch, covered
patio, or under an overhead structure of any kind.
• Do not use charcoal or ceramic briquets in a gas barbecue.
• Do not cover grates with aluminum foil or any other
material. This will block burner ventilation and create a
potentially dangerous condition resulting in property
damage and/or personal injury.
• Use barbecue at least 3 ft. from any wall or surface.
Maintain 10 ft. clearance to objects that can catch fire or
sources of ignition such as pilot lights on water heaters, live
electrical appliances, etc.
• NEVER attempt to light or re-light burner with lid
closed. A buildup of non-ignited gas inside a closed
barbecue is hazardous.
• Never operate barbecue with LP cylinder out of correct
position specified in assembly instructions.
• Always close LP cylinder valve and remove coupling nut
before moving LP cylinder from specified operation
position.
• Apartment Dwellers:
Check with management to learn the requirements and fire
codes for using an LP gas barbecue in your apartment
complex. If allowed, use outside on the ground floor with a
three (3) foot clearance from walls or rails. Do not use on
or under balconies.

Safety Tips

• Before opening LP cylinder valve, check the coupling nut for
tightness.
• When barbecue is not in use, turn off all control knobs and LP
cylinder valve.
• Never move barbecue while in operation or still hot.
• Some surfaces will be hot during use. Use long-handled
barbecue utensils and oven mitts to avoid burns and splatters.
• Maximum load for sideburner and side shelf is 10 lbs.
• The grease tray or cup must be installed during use and
emptied after each use. Do not remove grease tray or cup
until barbecue has completely cooled.
• Clean barbecue often, preferably after each cookout. If a bristle
brush is used to clean any of the barbecue cooking surfaces,
ensure no loose bristles remain on cooking surfaces prior to
barbecuing. It is not recommended to clean cooking surfaces
while barbecue is hot.
• If you notice grease or other hot material dripping from
barbecue onto valve, hose or regulator, turn off gas supply at
once. Determine the cause, correct it, then clean and inspect
valve, hose and regulator before continuing. Perform a leak
test.
• Keep ventilation openings in cylinder enclosure (barbecue cart)
free and clear of debris.
• Do not store objects or materials inside the barbecue cart
enclosure that would block the flow of combustion air to the
underside of either the control panel or the firebox bowl.
• The regulator may make a humming or whistling noise during
operation. This will not affect safety or use of barbecue.
• If you have a barbecue problem see the "Troubleshooting"
Section.
• If the regulator frosts, turn off barbecue and LP cylinder valve
immediately. This indicates a problem with the cylinder and it
should not be used on any product. Return to supplier!
