WARNINGS!
This grill is for outdoor use only. DO NOT use it in any enclosed area.
DO NOT store or use combustible materials or liquids near this appliance.
Keep children away while it is in use.
Maintain a safe distance between your grill and any combustible materials.
DO NOT move your grill while operating or while it is hot. Wait until the grill is
completely cold.
If a grease fire occurs, turn “off”and leave lid closed until the fire is extinguished. DO
NOT unplug the power cord. DO NOT throw water on it. DO NOT try to smother the
fire.
Clean and maintain your grill after each use.
We suggest that you use Z GRILLS BBQ WOOD PELLETS, which are specifically
made to work in our grills.
DO NOT use your grill on rainy days.
DO NOT touch any part of your grill while it is hot. Serious bodily injury could result.
We suggest the use of heat-resistant gloves when operating this grill.
We suggest that you should wrap the Grease Drain Pan with heavy-duty aluminum
foil before using because it is easy to clean.
For convenient and safe assembly, use at least two people to assemble the grill.
Make sure the power cord is disconnected before performing any service or
maintenance.
Always keep the Pellet Hopper dry, the wood pellets will expand greatly, break apart
and even jam the feed system if the pellets get wet or are exposed to high humidity.
DO NOT place anything heavy on top of hopper lid. It is not a shelf and is a tip hazard.
