PGS A-40 Gas Grill User Manual

IF A PROFESSIONAL INSTALLER OR DEALER INSTALLS THE GRILL, BE SURE THAT HE SHOWS YOU WHERE
YOUR GAS SUPPLY SHUT OFF IS LOCATED. ALL GAS LINES MUST HAVE A SHUT OFF THAT IS READILY AND EASILY
ACCESSIBLE. IF YOU SMELL GAS, CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS IMMEDIATELY. CHECK ONLY WITH A SOAP AND WATER
SOLUTION. NEVER CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS WITH AN OPEN FLAME.
NEVER USE CHARCOAL, VOLCANIC ROCK, WOOD CHIP MATERIALS, OR NON-PGS BRIQUETTES IN YOUR GRILL.
KEEP THE OPTIONAL ROTISSERIE MOTOR AND ELECTRICAL SUPPLY CORD AWAY FROM HEATED CASTING,
COOKING GRIDS, OTHER HOT PARTS OR WATER. STORE ROTISSERIE MOTOR AND PARTS IN A DRY PLACE WHEN
NOT IS USE.
NEVER USE GRILL IN A WINDY AREA AND NEVER USE THE GRILL DURING AN EXTREMELY WINDY DAY.
CLIMATIC CONDITIONS WILL IMPACT THE PERFORMANCE OF THE GRILL. IN CONSISTENTLY WINDY CONDITIONS,
WE SUGGEST INSTALLING A SUITABLE WINDBREAK.
ALWAYS ADHERE TO THE REQUIRED CLEARANCES FROM COMBUSTIBLES. THE GRILL IS DESIGNED FOR USE
OUTDOORS ONLY; NEVER OPERATE IN GARAGE, BUILDINGS, SHED, BREEZEWAYS OR OTHER ENCLOSED AREAS.
STORE YOUR GRILL IN A WELL-VENTED AREA. REMOVE THE LP CYLINDER, IF EQUIPPED WITH ONE, AND
STORE IT OUTDOORS IN A WELL-VENTILATED AREA AWAY FROM HEAT AND WHERE CHILDREN MAY POSSIBLY
TAMPER WITH IT.
WHEN USING THE OPTIONAL SIDE BURNER KIT, USE POTS THAT HAVE FLAT BOTTOMS AND ARE LARGE
ENOUGH TO COVER THE ENTIRE BURNER. ADJUST THE FLAME SO THAT IT ONLY HEATS THE BOTTOM OF THE POT
OR PAN TO AVOID THE POSSIBLE LIGHTING OF CLOTHING. POSITION HANDLE IN A WAY THAT IT DOES NOT
CONFLICT WITH THE OPENING AND CLOSING OF GRILL LID. YOU CANNOT OPERATE YOUR SIDE BURNER KIT AND
ROTISSERIE MOTOR SIMULTANEOUSLY.
GREASE IS EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE. LET HOT GREASE COOL DOWN BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO HANDLE OR
DISPOSE. PLEASE CLEAN OUT YOUR GREASE TRAY OR GREASE CAN ON A REGULAR BASIS.
NEVER COVER COOKING GRID WITH A MATERIAL THAT WILL TRAP HEAT BENEATH COOKING GRIDS, SUCH AS
LARGE PANS OR ALUMINUM FOIL. HEAT REFLECTED BELOW MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO ROCK GRATES, BURNERS,
GAS VALVE ASSEMBLY AND POSSIBLY TO GAS TRAIN. YOU NEED ONLY TO “PRE-HEAT” YOUR GRILL FIVE TO
SEVEN MINUTES BEFORE COOKING. YOU DO NOT NEED TO “BURN-OFF” YOUR GAS GRILL FOR EXTENDED TIMES
AFTER USE.
SPIDERS AND OTHER SMALL INSECTS CAN BUILD NESTS OR WEBS IN THE BURNERS OF YOUR PGS GRILL,
WHICH WILL CAUSE GAS TO FLOW OUT FROM THE FRONT OF THE BURNER TUBES. THIS CAN CAUSE A FIRE TO
BURN BEHIND YOUR CONTROL PANEL, THEREBY DAMAGING YOUR GRILL AND MAKES THE GRILL UNSAFE TO
OPERATE. INSPECT YOUR GRILL TWICE A YEAR OR IMMEDIATELY WHEN SYMPTOMS APPEAR. SEE "FLASHBACK"
ON PAGE 22.
PLEASE REFER TO SPECIFIC SECTIONS OF THIS MANUAL (SEE TABLE OF CONTENTS) IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS
REGARDING DIFFERENT TYPES OF FUELS, LIGHTING, OR TROUBLE-SHOOTING. IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS THAT
ARE NOT ANSWERED IN THIS MANUAL PLEASE CALL YOUR LOCAL DEALER.
THE GRILL MUST BE LOCATED NO CLOSER THAN 30" FROM ANY COMBUSTIBLE SURFACE ABOVE, BEHIND OR
TO THE SIDES. THE GRILL SHOULD NOT BE LOCATED UNDER OVERHEAD-UNPROTECTED COMBUSTIBLE
MATERIALS.
KEEP THE AREA AROUND THE GRILL CLEAR OF COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS, FLAMMABLE VAPORS OR
LIQUIDS SUCH AS GASOLINE. THE GRILL SURFACES BECOME VERY HOT DURING USE. KEEP CHILDREN AND PETS
AWAY. USE HOT PADS OR OVEN MITTS,

long history of safe use when simple rules are
followed. If not, there is danger of fire or explosion.
