Gas Grill is manufactured for outdoor use only! Any grill, charcoal
or gas, produces carbon monoxide while in operation and the gas should not be
allowed to accumulate in a confi ned area. Never operate this grill inside your home
or recreational vehicle or any enclosed area.
When locating your grill, choose a safe outdoor location away from fl ammable or
combustible surfaces and out of traffi c paths. Ducane
®
strongly recommends a 24”
clearance to combustible surfaces.
Consult your local codes for possible additional restrictions on location or operation
of your grill.
As your grill uses gas, it requires air to burn properly. Do not locate your grill in
such manner or as to obstruct the fl ow of combustion and ventilation air around the
grill.
When possible, adjust your grills’ position to reduce the likelihood of wind blowing
onto it.
ƽ CAUTION: Never operate your grill under any overhead
combustible construction.

Assembly
Make sure your grill is assembled properly. Detailed assembly instructions are packed
with each grill giving specifi c assembly procedures for each model. Follow these
instructions carefully to ensure the correct and safe assembly of the grill.
ƽ CAUTION: Although we take every effort to ensure that the

ƽ WARNING: Your grill has been designed to operate using
only the gas specified on the rating plate. Do not attempt
to operate your grill on other gases. Failure to follow this
warning could lead to a fire hazard and bodily harm, and will
void your warranty.
ƽ CAUTION: FOR YOUR SAFETY Do not store any flammable
materials in any cabinets beneath the grill burner box or in
the vicinity of your grill.
ƽ WARNING: Be sure to have your LP (propane) tank filled
by a reputable propane dealer. An incorrectly filled or an
overfilled LP tank can be dangerous. The overfilled condition
combined with the warming of the LP tank (a hot summer
day, tank left in the sun) can cause LP gas to be released by
the pressure relief valve on the tank since the temperature
increase causes the propane to expand. LP gas released
from the tank is flammable and can be explosive.
ƽ WARNING: Do not store a spare LP-gas cylinder under or
near this appliance; Never fill the cylinder beyond 80 percent
full; If this information is not followed exactly, a fire causing
death or serious injury may occur.
CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65
ƽ WARNING: The burning of gas cooking fuel generates some
by-products which are on the list of substances known
by the State of California to cause cancer or reproductive
harm. California law requires businesses to warn customers
of potential exposure to such substances. To minimize
exposure to these substances always operate this unit
according to the use and care manual, ensuring you provide
good ventilation when cooking with gas.
