 Do not put anything flammable in the storage area under the grill.
 Do not leave sealed containers of food on or near the grill.
 Keep the grill’s rear venlaon slots clear of obstrucons.
 It’s recommended that you regularly check your Memphis Grill for burn pot obstrucons to make sure
proper air flow is maintained. See PeriodicGrillMaintenancein this manual for correct procedures.
 Accessible parts of the grill are very hot. Keep young children away while in use.
 Exercise reasonable care when operang your grill. When children are present, adult supervision is recommended.
 Do not use lava rocks or charcoal in your grill.
 Never use gasoline, gasoline‐type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter fluid, or similar liquids to start or ‘freshen up’ a fire in this appliance.
Keep such liquids well away from the appliance when in use.
 Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a ght‐fing lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed on a non‐combusble
surface, well away from combusble materials, pending final disposal. When the ashes are disposed by burial in soil or otherwise locally
dispersed, they should be retained in the closed container unl all cinders have thoroughly cooled.
 To avoid the chance of serious burns, never lean over an open grill or place hands or fingers on the front edge of the cooking box.
 Do not use accessories not specified for use with this appliance.
 The grill should be plugged into a GFCI (Ground‐Fault Circuit Interrupt) outlet.
 When not in use the grill should be unplugged.
 The grill is to remain plugged into a GFCI during the cool down cycle.
 Use heat‐resistant barbeque mis or gloves when operang this unit.
 Do not move or clean your Memphis Wood Fire Grill while operang or while the grill is hot. Make sure the fire is completely out, and that the
grill is completely cooled before transporng or cleaning the grill.
 If the power cord becomes damaged, do not operate the grill.
 Do not use aerosols, liquids or damp‐materials on or near the grill while it is hot.
 Do not cover the enrety of the cooking surface when grill is hot. Leave at least 2 inches of clearance from the sides and back of the grill body.
 Any modificaons (holes, screws, sheet metal changes) to the grill will void warranty.
 Always operate the grill with the grill hood in the closed posion, unless the grill is in a direct flame mode.

Flame insert must be in place during operaon.
 Direct flame cooks should be performed with the hood in the open posion. A closed hood during direct flame cooks may result in an ER‐1 error
message. This error message means that the grill has reached too high of a temperature causing the grill to shut down avoiding any damage to
the unit.
 Never leave your grill unaended during a direct flame cook.
 Followtheguidelineslistedbelowtopreventcarbonmonoxidepoisoning.
 Know the symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning: headache, dizziness, weakness, nausea, voming, sleepiness, and confusion. Carbon
monoxide reduces the blood’s ability to carry oxygen. Low blood oxygen levels can result in loss of consciousness and even death.
 See a doctor if you or others develop cold or flu‐like symptoms while cooking or in the vicinity of this appliance. Carbon monoxide
poisoning, which can easily be mistaken for a cold or flu, is oen detected too late.
 Alcohol consumpon and drug use increase the effects of carbon monoxide poisoning.
 Carbon monoxide is especially toxic to mother and child during pregnancy, infants, the elderly, smokers, and people with blood or
circulatory system problems, such as anemia, or heart disease.
