SAFETY PRACTICES & PRECAUTIONS
For personal safety, wear proper apparel. Loose fitting garments or sleeves should never be worn while using
this appliance. Some synthetic fabrics are highly flammable and should not be worn while cooking. Only certain
types of glass, heat-proof glass ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for grill use. Use of
these types of materials may break with sudden temperature changes. Use only on low or medium heat settings
according to the manufacturer’s directions.
WARNING!
Spiders and insects can nest in the grill burners , causing gas not to flow through the burner. The gas will flow from
the front of the burner into the control panel. This is a very dangerous condition which can cause a fire to occur
behind the valve panel, thereby damaging the grill components and making it unsafe to operate.
WARNING!
Keep the area surrounding the grill free from combustible materials, trash, or combustible fluids and vapours such as
gasoline or charcoal lighter fluid. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
WARNING!
Never use the grill in windy conditions. If located in a consistently windy area (oceanfront, mountaintop, etc.) a wind
break will be required. Always adhere to the specified clearances as defined in the “INSTALLATION” section of this
manual.

and in some cases
can cause the
