BE SURE all control knobs are in the OFF position and barbecue is cool prior to using any aerosol cleaner on
or around the barbecue. The chemical that produces the spraying action could, in the presence of heat, ignite
or cause metal part to corrode.
ALWAYS use dry potholders: moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may cause steam burns.
Do not use a towel or bulky cloth in place of potholders.
DO NOT let potholders touch hot portions of the barbecue rack or burner.
DO NOT use the barbecue to cook excessively fatty meats or products that promote flare-ups.
NEVER use the barbecue without the drip tray in place and pushed all the way to the back of the barbecue.
Grease could leak downward and produce a fire or explosion hazard.
DO NOT operate the barbecue under unprotected combustible construction. Use only in a well
ventilated area. DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
KEEP ALL electrical cords away from the heated areas of the barbecue.
BEGIN by ensuring proper installation and servicing. Follow the installation instructions provided
with this product. Have your barbecue installed by a qualified installer. Have the installer show you
where the gas supply shut off valve is located so you know where to shut off the gas to the barbecue in
an emergency. The installer must test for satisfactory operation of the appliance following installation.
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. This must be done only by a qualified technician.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE REGARDING LPG BOTTLES
Only use 9kg approved LPG bottles. Certain liquid propane dealers may fill liquid propane cylinders
for use in the barbecue beyond cylinder filling capacity. This overfilling may create a dangerous condition.
Overfilled tanks can build up excess pressure. As a safety device, the tank’s 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 ¾ (75%) of its
total filling capacity.
2. If you own or use an extra tank, or have a disconnected tank, you should never store it near or under
the barbecue unit or heat box, or near any other ignition or heat source.
• NEVER store a spare LPG cylinder under or near the unit.
• NEVER fill the tank beyond ¾ full. A fire causing death or serious injury may occur.
• NEVER use a dented or rusty LPG tank.
SAFETY PRACTICES AND PRECAUTIONS
DO NOT use the barbecue in buildings, garages, sheds, breezeway or other
such as enclosed areas, without an approved ventilation system.
