Safety Precautions - GE JGGN24 Owner's Manual

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic
Enforcement Act requires the Governor of
California to publish a list of substances
known to the state to cause cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive harm, and
requires businesses to warn customers of
potential exposure to such substances.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

When using your grill, follow basic safety
precautions, including the following:
Be sure your grill is properly assembled and
grounded in accordance with the provided
Assembly Instructions. Failure to follow
these safety precautions may result in damage
or injury.
Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of
your cooking center unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual. All other servicing
should be referred to a GE Authorized
Service Center.
If you smell gas, the assembler has not done a
proper job of checking for leaks. You can have
a small leak and therefore a faint gas smell if
the connections are not completely tight.
Some leaks can only be found with the burner
control in the ON position and for your
protection it must be done in accordance
with leak test procedures. See the Leak testing
section. Never use an open flame to locate
a leak.
Check your local building codes for acceptable
outdoor grill locations. In the absence of
local codes, this unit should be located in
accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code
No. Z223.1, Latest Edition and the National
Electrical Code ANSI-NFPA No. 70,
Latest Edition.

Gas grills can cause minor exposure to four of
these substances, namely benzene, carbon
monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused
primarily by the incomplete combustion of
natural gas or LP fuels.
Properly adjusted burners, indicated by
a bluish rather than a yellow flame,
will minimize incomplete combustion.
Exposure to these substances is minimized
because this is an outdoor unit.
Do not try lighting this grill without reading the
lighting instructions in this manual.
Read this manual carefully and completely
before using your outdoor cooking center to
reduce the risk of fire, burn hazard or other
injury. Please retain this manual for future
reference.
This gas outdoor cooking center is not intended
to be located in or on recreational vehicles
and/or boats.
Never allow anyone to sit, stand or play on or
around the outdoor cooking center at any time.
When in use, portions of the outdoor cooking
center get hot enough to cause severe burns.
Do not store items of interest to children around
or below the grill.
Never allow children to crawl inside the cart.
Never let clothing, pot holders or other
flammable materials come in contact with or
too close to any grate, burner or hot surface
until it has cooled. Fabric may ignite and
result in personal injury.
