YOU MUST CONTACT YOUR LOCAL HOME ASSOCIATION, BUILDING OR FIRE OFFICIALS, OR AUTHORITY HAVING
JURISDICTION, TO OBTAIN THE NECESSARY PERMITS, MISSION OR INFORMATION ON ANY INSTALLATION RESTRICTIONS,
SUCH AS ANY GRILL BEING INSTALLED ON A COMBUSTIBLE SURFACE, INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS OR EVEN ABILITY TO
USE, IN YOUR AREA.
1. A minimum clearance of 457 mm (17.9 inches) from combustible constructions to the sides of the grill, and 457 mm (17.9 inches) from the
back of the grill to combustible constructions must be maintained. Do not install appliance on combustible floors, or floors protected with
combustible surfaces unless proper permits and permissions are obtained by authorities having jurisdiction. Do not use this appliance indoors
or in an enclosed, unventilated area. This appliance must not be placed under overhead combustible ceiling or overhang. Keep your grill in an
area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids.
SHOULD A GREASE FIRE OCCUR, TURN THE GRILL OFF AND LEAVE THE LID CLOSED UNTIL THE FIRE IS OUT. UNPLUG
THE POWER CORD FROM THE CONNECTED OUTLET. DO NOT THROW WATER ON THE UNIT. DO NOT TRY TO SMOTHER
THE FIRE. IT IS IMPORTANT TO HAVE ON-SITE USE OF AN ALL-CLASS (CLASS ABC) APPROVED FIRE EXTINGUISHER. IF AN
UNCONTROLLED FIRE DOES OCCUR, CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
OVERFIRING WARNING! IF FOR ANY REASON YOUR ELECTRIC IGNITER FAILS OR YOUR GRILLS FLAME DIES OUT DURING
A COOK, CHECK THE GRILL'S BURN AREA TO ENSURE THERE ARE NO UNBURNED PELLETS IN THE BURN GRATE BEFORE
RESTARTING. STARTING THE GRILL WITH PELLETS IN THE BURN AREA CAN CAUSE OVERFIRING AND POSSIBLY AN
UNCONTROLLED FLAME.
2. Keep electrical supply cords and the fuel away from heated surfaces. Do not use your grill in the rain or around any water source.
3. After a period of storage, or non-use, check the burn grate for obstructions, the hopper for foreign objects, and any air blockage around the fan
intake, chimney, or rear barrel exhaust holes. Clean before use. Regular care and maintenance is required to prolong the lifespan of your unit.
If the grill is stored outside during the rainy season or seasons of high humidity, care should be taken to insure that water does not get into the
hopper. When wet or exposed to high humidity, wood pellets will expand greatly, decompose, and may jam the feed system. Always disconnect
the power, before performing any service or maintenance.
DO NOT MOVE YOUR GRILL WHILE IN USE OR WHILE THE GRILL IS HOT. ENSURE THE FIRE IS COMPLETELY OUT AND THAT
THE GRILL IS COMPLETELY COOL TO THE TOUCH BEFORE MOVING.

this appliance. Do not put a barbecue cover or anything flammable in the storage space area under the barbecue.
5. To prevent fingers, clothing or other objects from coming in contact with the auger feed system, the appliance is equipped with a metal safety
screen, mounted to the interior of the hopper. This screen must not be removed unless directed by Customer Service or an authorized dealer.
