IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNINGS
•
When opening lid, make sure it is pushed all the way back so it rests against the lid support
brackets. Use extreme caution as hood could fall back to a closed position and cause bodily injury.
•
Close lid and all dampers to help suffocate flame.
•
Always hold an open lid from the handle to prevent it from closing unexpectedly.
•
Never leave coals and ashes unattended. Before grill can be left unattended, coals and ashes must
be removed. Use caution to protect yourself and property.
•
Carefully place remaining coals and ashes in a noncombustible metal container and saturate
completely with water. Allow coals and water to remain in a metal container for 24 hours prior
to disposing.
•
To protect against bacteria that could cause illness, keep all meats refrigerated and thaw in
refrigerator or microwave. Keep raw meats separate from other foods, and wash everything that
comes in contact with raw meat.
•
Cook meat thoroughly, and refrigerate leftovers immediately.
•
Use a calibrated food thermometer and the USDA guidelines to ensure that meat, poultry, seafood,
and other cooked foods reach a safe minimum internal temperature.
•
Always have a fire extinguisher near at all times. Maintain and check your fire extinguisher regularly.
