tent or any other enclosed area. Cookers shall not be used on or under apartment or condominium
balcony or deck. Do not install or use in or on recreational vehicles and/or boats.
• When cooking, the cooker must be on a level, stable, noncombustible surface in an area clear of
combustible material. An asphalt surface (blacktop) may not be acceptable for this purpose.
• Do not use on combustible flooring or surfaces.
• Do not operate appliance any closer than 10 feet from any combustible materials including walls or
railings or under overhead construction as these materials could ignite should grease fire occur.
• This appliance is not for frying turkeys. The maximum size cooking vessel/pot for frying with this
appliance using grease or oil is 10 quarts.
• Smoking oil is an indication that the oil is too hot and may ignite. Oil ignites at varying temperatures;
therefore, never allow the oil to exceed 400°F (204°C) and NEVER LEAVE HEATING OIL UNATTENDED.
• Carefully monitor the temperature of the oil with a fryer thermometer and regulate the temperature so
that it does not exceed 400°F (204°C) on the thermometer. If necessary, turn the gas OFF to
the appliance to allow the oil to cool.
• When cooking with oil or grease, a fryer thermometer MUST be used. Follow all manufacturer's
warnings and instructions regarding the use of their product.
• Test the thermometer before each use by inserting it into a cooking vessel of boiling water and ensure
that it registers approximately 212°F +/- 20˚F (100°C +/- 10˚C). If the thermometer does not function
properly, a replacement thermometer must be obtained before using this cooker. A fryer thermometer
can be obtained by contacting The Brinkmann Corporation at 1-800-527-0717.
• If the temperature exceeds 400°F (204°C) or if oil begins to smoke, immediately turn the burner or gas
supply OFF and wait for the temperature to decrease to less than 350°F (175°C) before relighting burner.
(See instructions on page 24 for relighting.) If there is a lid (cover), do not remove the lid as oxygen will
feed a fire.

when operating this product.

cooking vessel more than 12.5 inches (31.75 cm.) in diameter.

• Avoid bumping of or impact with the appliance to prevent spillage or splashing of hot cooking liquid.
• Never drop food or accessories into hot cooking liquid. Lower food and accessories slowly into the
cooking liquid in order to prevent splashing or overflow. When removing food from the appliance care
shall be taken to avoid burns from hot cooking liquids.
• In the event of rain, snow, hail, sleet or other forms of precipitation while cooking with oil/grease, cover
the cooking vessel immediately and turn off the appliance burner and gas supply. Do not attempt to
move the appliance or cooking vessel.
• Introduction of water or ice from any source into the oil/grease may cause overflow and severe burns
from hot oil and water splatter. When frying with oil/grease, all food products MUST be completely
thawed and towel dried before being immersed in the cooker.
