• Do not heat unopened food containers
as a buildup of pressure may cause
the container to burst.
• Use a pot holder when opening the hood.
Open the hood slowly to allow heat and steam
to escape.
• Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp pot
holders on hot surfaces may result in burns
from steam. Do not use a towel or other bulky
cloth in place of a pot holder. Do not let pot
holders touch hot portions of the grill grate
or burner grates.
• Never lean over an open grill.
• Pay close attention when lighting a burner.
Be certain you are rotating the igniter labeled
for the burner you intend to use.
• When using the grill, do not touch the grill
grate, burner grate or immediate surrounding
areas as these areas become extremely hot
and could cause burns. Keep children away!
• Grease is extremely flammable. Let hot
grease cool before attempting to handle
or dispose of it. Avoid letting grease deposits
collect in the drip tray. Clean the drip tray
often.
• Do not use aluminum foil to line drip
tray or grill grates. This can severely upset
combustion air flow or trap excessive heat
in the control area.
• When using the cooktop burners, always use
flat-bottomed pans which are large enough
to cover the burner. Adjust the flame so that
it heats only the bottom of the pan to avoid
ignition of clothing. Position handles away
from the grill to avoid burns associated with
spillovers and heat from the grill. Hold the
handle of the pan with a pot holder when
turning or stirring food.
• Do not use the grill for cooking excessively
fatty meats or products which promote
flare-ups.
• Never grill without the drip tray in place and
pushed all the way to the back of the grill.
Without it, hot grease could leak downward
and produce a fire or explosion hazard.
• Never rotisserie cook without the basting
pan in place and pushed all the way to
the back of the grill under the food being
cooked. Without it, hot grease could leak
downward and produce a fire or explosion
hazard.
• Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—
meat to at least an INTERNAL
160°F
and
poultry to at least an INTERNAL
180°F
.
Cooking to these temperatures usually
protects against foodborne illness.
• For proper lighting and performance of the
burners it is necessary to keep the ports clean.
• Clean the grill with caution. To avoid steam
burns, do not use a wet sponge or cloth to
clean the grill while it is hot. Some cleaners
produce noxious fumes or can ignite if applied
to a hot surface.
• Do not operate the grill or cooktop under
unprotected combustible construction.
Always adhere to the required clearances listed
in the Installation Instructions. Use only in
well-ventilated areas. Do not use in buildings,
garages, sheds, breezeways or other such
enclosed areas. This unit is for outdoor use only.
• Do not locate the grill where the grill exhaust
is directed at combustible materials, windows
(open or closed), doorways, etc. The grill vents
combustion gases and smoke to the back of
the appliance.
• Keep the area surrounding the grill free from
combustible materials, trash, or combustible
fluids and vapors such as gasoline or charcoal
lighter fluid. Do not obstruct the flow of
combustion and ventilation air.
• Allow 12" minimum clearance on both
sides and the back of the grill to adjacent
vertical combustible construction.
• At least once a year, the unit should be
inspected for the presence of spiders, spider
webs or other insects. The burner area is a
common and desired spider haven and can
present a dangerous condition which can
damage the grill or cooktop and render it
unsafe for use. The presence of spiders, spider
webs or other insects can cause the gas to
flow from the front of the burner. This is a very
dangerous condition which can cause a fire to
occur behind the valve panel. Check and clean
the burners immediately if any of the following
conditions exist:
1. The smell of gas in conjunction with extreme
yellow tipping of the burner flames.
2. The grill or cooktop burners do not reach
temperature.
3. The grill or cooktop burners heat unevenly.
4. The burners make popping noises.
