 DANGER: If the information in above is not followed exactly, a fire causing death
or serious injury may occur.
 The outdoor cooking gas appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system
by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas
supply system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 PSI (3.5 KPa).
 CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING: The burning of gas cooking fuel generates
some byproducts which are on the list of substances known by the State of California to
cause cancer, reproductive harm, or other birth defects. To reduce exposure to these
substances, always operate this unit according to the use and care manual, ensuring you
provide good ventilation when cooking with gas.
IMPORTANT: We urge you to read this manual carefully and follow
the recommendations enclosed. This will ensure you receive the
most enjoyable and trouble-free operation of your new gas grill. We
also advise you retain this manual for future reference.
WARNING: Your grill has been designed to operate using only the
gas specified by the manufacturer on the rating plate. Do not attempt to
operate your grill with other gases. Failure to follow this warning could
lead to a fire hazard and bodily harm and will void your warranty.
WARNING: Make certain your LP (propane) tank is filled by a reputable
propane dealer. An incorrectly filled or overfilled LP tank can be
dangerous. An overfilled tank combined with the warming of the LP tank
(a hot summer day, tank left in the sun, etc.) 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. Refer to your Owner's Manual for more
information concerning filling your LP tank.
The installer must hand the instructions to the consumer and the
consumer should retain them for future reference.
If the outdoor cooking gas appliance is not in use, the gas must be
turned off at the supply cylinder(s). Storage of an outdoor cooking
gas appliance indoors is permissible only if the cylinder(s) is (are)
disconnected and removed from the outdoor cooking gas appliance.
Cylinders must be stored outdoors out of the reach of children and
must not be stored in a building, garage, or any other enclosed area.
