- If you are using a charcoal grill, keep charcoal fluid away from heat sources and out of reach of pets and children.
- Both propane and charcoal BBQ grills should ONLY BE USED OUTDOORS. Trust us, don't bring the grills inside.
- Make sure the grill is away from the home, deck railings and out from under eaves and overhanging branches. The fireworks you want at your family BBQ are the ones you watch under the stars, not around your grill.
- Make sure to keep your grill clean and free from grease or fat buildup from the grills and in trays below the grill.
- NEVER leave the grill unattended to.
- If you are using a propane grill, check the gas tank hose for leaks before the first grill of the season.
- If you smell gas while cooking, move away from the grill and call the local fire department immediately, don't try moving the grill.
