GENERAL WARNINGS WARNING • Never use natural gas in a unit designed for liquid propane gas. • Never use charcoal briquets or lighter fluid in a gas grill. • Leak test all connections before first use, even if grill was purchased fully assembled and after each tank refill. • Never check for leaks using a match or open flame. CAUTION! Strong odors, colds, sinus congestion, etc. may prevent the detection of propane. Use caution and common sense when testing for leaks.
WARNING • FOR OUTDOOR USE ONLY. DO NOT operate indoors or in an enclosed area such as a garage, shed or breezeway. • Use your grill OUTDOORS in a well ventilated space away from dwellings or other buildings to prevent dangers associated with gas accumulation and toxic vapors. We recommend your grill be situated at least 10 feet (3.1 m) from buildings. • Maintain a minimum clearance of 36 inches (91 cm) between all sides of grill and walls or other combustible material.
CYLINDER SPECIFICATIONS: When purchasing or exchanging a cylinder for your gas grill, it must be constructed and marked in accordance with the specifications for LP gas cylinders of the U.S.
WARNING FILLING THE LP GAS CYLINDER: • Allow only qualified LP gas dealers to properly fill or repair your LP gas cylinder. • New tanks should be purged prior to filling; inform LP gas dealer if you are using a new tank. • DO NOT allow the cylinder to be filled beyond 80% capacity. Over-filled tanks can create a dangerous condition. Over-filled tanks can build-up pressure and cause the relief valve to expel propane gas vapors.
WARNING • Never use your grill without leak testing all gas connections and hoses. See the section on "Leak Testing" in this manual for proper procedures. WARNING The pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied with your gas grill must be used. • DO NOT attempt to connect it to any other fuel supply source such as a natural gas line. • DO NOT use any other pressure regulator/hose assembly other than the one supplied with your grill.
DANGER LEAK TESTING: To prevent fire or explosion hazard: • DO NOT smoke or permit ignition sources in the area while conducting a leak test. • Perform test OUTDOORS only in a well ventilated area. • Never perform a leak test with a match or open flame. • Never perform a leak test while the grill is in use or while grill is still hot. WARNING WHEN TO PERFORM A LEAK TEST: • After assembling your grill and before lighting for the first time, even if purchased fully assembled.

BREAKING IN YOUR GRILL: • In manufacturing and preserving the components of your grill, oil residue may be present on the burner and cooking surfaces of your grill. • Before cooking on your grill for the first time you should preheat it for 15 minutes on "HIGH" to burn off these residual oils.
ROTISSERIE COOKING: • Your grill was pre-drilled from factory to include mounting holes for a rotisserie (sold separately). Do not use a rotisserie not specifically manufactured for this grill. • Read and follow all instructions provided with the rotisserie. Save instructions for future reference. • Do not use the side burner when using a rotisserie.
GRILL COOKING TIPS CLEANLINESS • Always wash hands thoroughly with soap and hot water prior to handling food and after handling raw meat, uncooked poultry or seafood. • When using a platter to carry raw meat, uncooked poultry or seafood to the grill, make sure to wash the platter thoroughly with soap and hot water before placing cooked foods back on the platter or use different platters for raw and cooked foods.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE: • Keep the appliance free and clear of combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids. • • Keep the ventilation openings of the cylinder enclosure free and clear of debris. Visually check burner flames for proper operation (see pictorial in "Burner Assembly/Maintenance" under Proper Care and Maintenance). Spiders or other insects can nest in the burner causing gas blockage.
COOKING GRILLS • Clean with mild soap detergent and water. A brass bristled brush or a nylon cleaning pad can be used to remove residue from the stainless steel surfaces. Do not use steel wire bristles to clean the cooking grills. Steel can cause the finish to chip or crack. DO NOT use a commercial oven cleaner. HEAT DISTRIBUTION PLATES • Periodically, it may be necessary to inspect and clean the heat distribution plate to prevent excess grease build-up. When the grill is cold, remove the cooking grill.
