To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury or death:

· Use only propane gas in this LP gas grill.
· Do not attempt to convert an LP unit to natural gas.
· Any use or alteration of this unit not intended 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. As with all
conventional fuels, the burning process consumes
oxygen and produces toxic gases, including carbon
monoxide. In addition, the combustion products of
such fuels, including liquefied petroleum (LP), contain
chemicals known to the state of California and other
authorities to cause cancer, birth defects and other
reproductive harm.

vehicles, or boats.

dealer, make sure you get a safe and adequate O.P.D.
