OPERATING AND MAINTAINING YOUR GAS GRILL
BEFORE USING YOUR LP GAS GRILL
USING GAS
CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD
· This appliance can produce carbon monoxide which
has no odor. Using it in an enclosed space can kill you.
· Never use this appliance indoors, on recreational
vehicles, or boats.
SELECTING A LOCATION
To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury or death:
· Use only 1 pound propane cylinders in this grill.
· LP gas is not natural gas. Do not attempt to convert an
LP unit to natural gas or a natural gas unit to LP gas.
Any unspecified use or alteration of this unit could be
unsafe and will void your warranty.
· Always use a gas appliance outdoors in an open area
with good ventilation to avoid breathing toxic fumes
from leaking gas, explosion or fire. In addition, the
combustion products of such fuels, including liquified
petroleum (LP), contain chemicals known to the state of
California and other authorities to cause cancer, birth
defects and other reproductive harm.
To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury or death:
· Keep grill and accessory appliances clear and free
from combustible materials, gasoline and other
flammable vapors and liquids.
· Locate your LP gas grill in an open area with good
ventilation and at least 10 feet away from your house
or building. Do not use the grill in a garage, breezeway,
carport, porch, high traffic area or under any surface
that can catch fire.
· Minimum clearance from sides and back of grill to
adjacent combustible construction should be 36 inches
from sides and 36 inches from back. Minimum
horizontal clearance from sides and back of grill to
adjacent combustible construction extending above top
of unit should be 40 inches.
· Locate your LP gas grill on a level stable surface in an
area clear of combustible material. If surface is not
level, grill must be leveled by adjusting the legs. An
asphalt surface (blacktop) may not be acceptable for
this purpose.
· Do not use an LP gas grill indoors, on recreational
vehicles, or boats.
· Do not use gas grill as a space heater.
· Make sure legs are fully open before using the grill.
Before using your gas grill perform a leak test on the
Control Valves, Regulator/Hose connections and fittings.
