WARNING
2
• Propane is heavier than air and can accumulate in low places. Keep propane tank, at all times, in a well ventilated area. If you
smell gas – leave the area immediately and call for help.
• Fully extend hose between propane tank and cooker to protect hose from contact with hot surfaces which could create a leak.
Never use a hose that shows signs of cracking or damage. Replace hose every two years.
• Do not use or store cooker near gasoline or other flammable liquids, gases or where flammable vapors may be present.
• Never store propane tank in an enclosed area (house, garage, etc.). Store outdoors in a well ventilated, shaded area, away from
any heat source or open flame and away from children’s reach.
• Turn the cooker "ON" and "OFF" with the propane tank valve; use the regulator control valve ONLY to adjust the flame. Read all
warnings on or accompanying propane tank.
• Disconnect the propane tank from the cooker when not in use. A safety plug should be placed in the propane tank valve.
7. Keep hands, face and hair away from burner. Use long matches or long-nosed lighter to light the burner. Do not wear loose
clothing or allow long hair to hang freely while lighting or using cooker.
8. Only use flat bottom metal cookware and center evenly over burner. Never put an empty pan over an open flame; the bottom of the
pan could melt. Do not use plastic, ceramic or glassware. Any pan larger than the retaining ring will rest on top of the ring. Use
caution to avoid knocking pan from retaining ring.
9. Do not fill cookware beyond one-half full with liquid to allow room for the addition of food and to avoid boil-over of hot liquid. In
some cases, depending on the weight or size of food, even less liquid will be required. If spill-over/boil-over occurs, check to make
sure flame was not extinguished by liquid. Gas could accumulate causing a highly flammable, very dangerous situation. Allow gas
to dissipate prior to relighting cooker.
10. Do not walk between cooker and propane tank as this creates a trip hazard. Tripping over the hose could overturn the cooker or
knock pan of hot liquid from cooker causing severe burns.
11. In case of grease fire, do not use water to extinguish flame. Turn gas OFF at propane tank and use fire extinguisher approved for
use with gas appliances or other appropriate means to extinguish flame.
12. Do not use this cooker on recreational vehicle or boat.
13. Do not use this cooker for other than its intended purpose.
14. Only use replacement/accessory parts manufactured by The Brinkmann Corporation. Repairs should be performed by The
Brinkmann Corporation.
15. Properly dispose of all packaging materials.
USE CAUTION AND COMMON SENSE WHEN OPERATING YOUR COOKER.
