FOR YOUR SAFETY - WHILE OPERATING YOUR GRILL
For Safe Use of Your Grill and to Avoid
Serious Injury:
• Controls and gas source or tank OFF when not
in use.
• Do not let children operate or play near grill.
• Check burner flames regularly.
• Do not use charcoal or ceramic briquets in a gas
grill.
• 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.
• NEVER attempt to light or re-light burner with
lid closed. A buildup of non-ignited gas inside a
closed grill is hazardous.
• Never operate grill 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 oper-
ation position.
• If you see, smell or hear gas escaping, immediately
get away from the LP cylinder/appliance and call
your fire department.
• If during operation the flames go out (You smell
gas or cannot see the flame):
1. Turn the burner controls OFF.
2. Open lid.
3. Wait 5 minutes and repeat the lighting
procedure.
• If the burner goes out, gas will continue to flow
out of the burner and could accidently ignite with
risk of injury.
• Putting out grease fires by closing the lid is not
possible. Grills are well ventilated for safety
reasons.
• Do not use water on a grease fire. Personal injury
may result. If a grease fire develops, turn knobs
and LP cylinder off.
• Do not leave grill unattended while preheating or
burning off food residue on HI. If grill has not been
regularly cleaned, a grease fire can occur that may
damage the product.
• The best way to prevent grease fires is regular
cleaning of the grill following instructions on
General Grill Cleaning and Cleaning The Burner
Assembly.
WARNING
DANGER
CAUTION
Before each use of your Grill:
Checking the Fuel Gas Hose
• Before each use, check to see if hoses are cut or
worn or kinked. Replace damaged hoses before
using grill. Use only valve/hose/regulator specified
by manufacturer.
Perform a Valve Check
• Important: Make sure gas is off at LP cylin-
der before checking valves. Knobs lock in off
position. To check valves, first push in knobs and
release, knobs should spring back. If knobs do not
spring back, replace valve assembly before using
grill. Turn knobs to LOW position then turn back to
off position. Valves should turn smoothly.
Check the Ignitor
• Turn gas off at LP cylinder. Press and hold electronic
ignitor button. “Click” should be heard and spark
seen each time in each collector box or between
burner and electrode. See “Troubleshooting” if no
click or spark.
Burner Flame Check
• Remove cooking grates and heat tents. Light
burners, rotate knobs from HIGH to LOW. You should
see a smaller flame in LOW position than seen on
HIGH. Perform burner flame check on side burner,
also. Always check flame prior to each use. If only
low flame is seen refer to “Sudden drop or low
flame” in the Troubleshooting Section.
