IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE!
Certain Liquid Propane dealers may fill liquid propane cylinders for use in the outdoor appliance beyond cylinder
filling capacity. This “Overfilling” may create a dangerous condition.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE!
Be sure to remove covers from grill, griddle or side burners before attempting to light or use.
“Overfilled” tanks can build up excess pressure. As a safety device, the tanks pressure relief valve will vent
propane gas vapor to relieve this excess pressure. This vapor is combustible and therefore can be ignited. To
reduce this danger, you should take the following safety precautions:
1.
When you have your tank filled, be sure you tell the supplier to fill it to no more than 3/4 (75%) of its total
capacity.
2
. If you own or use a spare tank, or have a disconnected tank, you should NEVER store
it near or under the outdoor appliance/cart unit or heat box, or near any other igni-
tion or heat source. A metallic sticker with this warning is provided with the grill
to remind you, your family and all others who may use your grill of these safety
precautions. Install this sticker close to your barbeque grill.
3. Do not store a full tank in direct sunlight.
WARNING!
Do not try lighting this appliance without reading the “LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS”
section of this manual. This outdoor appliance is for outdoor use only.
WARNING!
Push and hold the igniter button, turn the selected burner knob to “HI” or
“SEAR”. If burner does not light in 4 to 5 seconds turn knob “OFF” and wait 5
minutes for any accumulated gas to dissipate before trying again.
Begin by insuring proper installation and
servicing. Follow the installation instructions
within this manual. Have your outdoor appli-
ance installed by a qualified technician. Have
the installer show you where the gas supply
shut-off valve is located so that you know
where to shut off the gas to the outdoor ap-
pliance. If you smell gas, your installer has
not done a proper job of checking for leaks. If
the connections are not perfectly sealed, you
can have a small leak and therefore a faint gas
smell. Finding a leak is not a “do-it-yourself ”
procedure. Some leaks can only be found with
the burner control in the “ON” position and
this must be done by a qualified technician.
Children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where the outdoor appliance is being used. Never
allow them to sit, stand or play on or around the outdoor appliance at any time. When in use, portions of the
outdoor appliance can get hot enough to cause severe burns.
Do not store items of interest to children around or below the outdoor appliance, in the cart or masonry enclo-
sure. Never allow children to crawl inside a cart or enclosure.
SAFETY PRACTICES & PRECAUTIONS
• Always follow lighting instructions.
• Lid must be off before lighting
the grill or side burners.
• Check for gas leaks before lighting.
• Never lean over an open grill when

• Hot surfaces surrounding grill
grates could cause serious burns.
• Always leave at least 12" clearance

• Never store a spare LP cylinder
under or near this unit.
• Never fill the tank beyond 3/4 full. A
fire causing death or serious injury
may occur.
