Choosing a Safe Location
for a Gas Barbecue Grill
Necessary Information to
Safely Use a Gas Grill
Heat and hot drippings from cooking food
could damage the fuel supply system.
Liquid Propane (abbreviated L.P.) gas is
stored under high pressure inside a cylinder
and will vaporize when released. It is
important that there are no leaky connections
on the grill fuel supply system. Refer to the
Leak Testing section of this manual.
An L.P. gas grill requires a fuel delivery
system made up of a L.P. gas supply
cylinder, a fuel regulator with hose and a
gas-control valve.
·
L.P. Gas
The L.P. Fuel Supply System
Do not store an L.P. cylinder in a building,
garage or any other enclosed area. Instead,
store the cylinder outdoors in a well
ventilated area, away from people and out of
the reach of children.
Place your barbecue grill in a location
away from children and pets.
Do not leave grill unattended when in use.
To avoid burns, do not touch any hot grill
surface. If necessary, use a protective glove
when operating control knobs, tank shut-off
valve, or lid handle.
Do not place combustible material, such
as cloth or plastic, on grill surface during
use.
Do not lean on side tables or place more
than 10 pounds of weight on a side table or
on the open side burner table.
·
·
·
·
·
9. Make sure the heat shield and grease
pan are in place under the grill bottom.
Do not use natural gas in an
appliance designed for L.P. gas. Use only
liquid propane (L.P.) gas in an appliance
designed for L.P. gas.
NEVER leave a grill
unattended when in use.
IMPORTANT:

Any L.P. gas-supply cylinder used with this
grill must be approximately 12 inches
diameter and 18 inches high.
L.P. GAS SUPPLY CYLINDER
L.P. GAS CYLINDER SPECIFICATIONS
The maximum
fuel capacity must be 20 pounds of propane.
Full-cylinder weight should be approximately
38 pounds (43.7 lbs. Nominal water
capacity).
FUEL REGULATOR AND HOSES
The fuel regulator supplied is equipped with
a Type 1 coupling nut. Do not attempt to
connect to any other L.P. cylinder not
equipped with a mating Type 1 cylinder
valve. This grill is not to be used with any
other cylinder connection device.
The fuel regulator and hose assembly with
the Type 1 fitting supplied must be used with
the appliance. Do not use a hose and
regulator assembly other than the one
supplied with the grill or a manufacturer’s
replacement fuel pressure regulator
assembly.
The Type 1 connection system has the
following features:
1. The system will not allow gas to flow until
a positive connection has been made.
2. The system has a thermal element that
will shut off the flow of gas between 240°F
and 300°F.
3. The system has a flow-limiting device
which, when activated, will limit the flow of
gas to 10 cubic feet per hour.
Any attempt to adjust the
regulator is dangerous and could create a
situation causing personal injury or property
damage. Consult your L.P. gas dealer if you
think the regulator is not working properly.

Have the gas dealer weigh the cylinder
after filling to ensure that the cylinder is not
overfilled.
TRANSPORTING A FULL CYLINDER
You should transport only one cylinder at a
time. Transport the cylinder in an upright and
secure manner with the control valve turned
off and the POL plug in place.
Do not transport a cylinder in the passenger
compartment of a vehicle.
Do not leave cylinder in direct sunlight or in
a high-heat area such as a closed car trunk.
High-heat areas could cause the relief valve
to vent gas.
Use a cylinder cap on the cylinder-valve
outlet during transport and when the cylinder
is not connected to the grill. Keep cylinder
valve closed when not in use.
The L.P. cylinder must have a shut-off valve
terminating in a Type 1 L.P. gas-cylinder-
valve outlet. A Type 1 compatible cylinder
with a Type 1 cylinder valve has a positive
seating connection that does not permit gas
flow until a positive seal has been obtained.
The cylinder must be arranged for vapor
withdrawal. It must also include a collar to
protect the cylinder valve. A safety-relief
device having direct communication with the
vapor space of cylinder must be provided.
This will expel high-pressure gas if the
cylinder is overfilled or overheated.
All L.P. gas cylinders used with this
appliance shall be constructed and marked
in accordance with the specifications for L.P.
gas cylinders of the U.S. Department of
Transportation (DOT) or the National
Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA-B339,
Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for
Transportation of Dangerous Goods; and
Commission, as applicable; and shall be
provided with a listed overfilling-prevention
device. Read labels on the L.P. gas-supply
cylinder.
Inform the gas dealer if it is a new or used
cylinder to be filled. Caution the gas dealer
not to overfill the fuel cylinder.
After filling, have the gas dealer check for
leaks and that the relief valve remains free to
function.
Allow only a qualified L.P. gas dealer to
fill or repair an L.P. gas-supply cylinder.
a.) Do not store a spare L.P. gas cylinder
under or near this appliance.
b.) Never fill the gas cylinder beyond 80

Filling a Type 1 Cylinder Valve
Example A: shows a CGA-510 POL fitting.
Example B: shows using a Type 1 POL fitting.
The L.P. gas cylinder has a Type 1 cylinder
valve with a back-check module in its outlet
that will not permit gas to flow until an
evacuation device is installed. To purge the
L.P. gas cylinder, the back-check module must
be opened with an evacuation device.
A. Hose-end valve with a bleed port: Purging
can be accomplished using a hose-end valve
containing a bleed port, which also allows for
evacuation without the use of an adapter.
B. Hose-end valve without a bleed port:
When a hose-end valve does not have a bleed
port, a separate device must be used for
evacuation.
C. Purging using a Type 1 connection: L.P.
gas cylinder evacuation can be accomplished
during each purging by using a Type 1
connection. The Type 1 valve outlet has 1-
5/16” external ACME right-hand thread that will
accept this connection.
After purging or filling an L.P. gas
cylinder, do not insert a POL plug into the
valve outlet. Insertion of this plug will prevent
the back-check from closing. Use ONLY the
provided cap and strap attached to the outlet.
Close the cylinder valve knob before returning
the cylinder to the customer.
For proper purging procedures in the USA,
refer to: Safety Bulletin NPGA # 133, “Purging
L.P. Gas Cylinders,” and Safety Bulletin NPGA
#130, “Recommended Procedures for Filling
Cylinders.”

2. Check that all the grill burner knobs are
turned off.
3. Remove the protective caps from the
cylinder valve and coupling nut, if present.
4. Hold the regulator in one hand and insert
the nipple into the valve outlet. Be sure the
nipple is centered in the valve outlet. The
coupling nut connects to the large outside
threads on the valve outlet. Use care not to
cross thread the connection.
5. Hand tighten the coupling nut clockwise
until it comes to a full stop. Tighten by hand
only. Do not use tools.
6. CAUTION: In the connection process,
the grill side of the connection will seal on
the back check in the valve, resulting in a
slight resistance. The connection requires
about one-half to three-quarters additional
turn to complete the connection.
20
Connecting the L.P. Gas Cylinder
NOTE: If you cannot complete the final
connection, disconnect the regulator and
repeat steps 4 through 6. If you are still
unable to complete the connection, do not
use this valve and regulator.
7. Make sure the hose has no kinks or
sharp bends and clears any areas that will
become hot during use. Never put strain on
the hose where it joins a fitting. The rubber
fuel supply hose must not touch the bottom
grill casting during use.
8. Before lighting grill, check all connections
for leaks using a mild soapy-water solution.
9. Make sure the grease pan is in place
before operating. If the grease pan is notin
place, hot grease and debris will fall on the
gas cylinder and may cause damage to the
fuel supply system.
Tank collar omitted for clarity
A quick-connect coupling sleeve with 3/8”
female end is provided. Install the connector
socket at the pipe end, after the shut-off valve.
This must be installed where the grill will be in
use.
It is important to observe the safety
guidelines for choosing a safe location. The
gas supply must be shut off prior to installation
of the quick connector socket. Use only a
matching factory authorized quick-connect
plug with the quick-connect socket.
Natural-gas units are equipped with a 12-
footlong quick-connect fuel hose in place of
the shorter hose/regulator attached to the
burner valve.
Prior to inserting, turn on gas supply and test
all connections with an ammonia-free soap
and water solution. Apply this solution to the
stem of the shut-off valve and opening of the
socket to detect leaks. (See Leak Testing
Natural Gas Connections on the following
page).
The valve-orifices and fuel supply hose
system necessary for use with natural gas is
different than the system required for L.P. gas.
Modification to the burner valve/orifices allow
the use of natural gas. An L.P. cylinder is not
needed.
The maximum inlet supply pressure is 11.0"
w.c. for propane gas and 7.0" w.c. for natural
gas.
The specified supply pressure is 11.0" w.c.
for propane gas and 7.0" wc. for natural gas.
The piping system should be installed by a
qualified service technician in accordance with
the National Fuel Gas Code (NFPA 54/ANSI
Z223.1) in the U.S.A., including:
1. The appliance and its individual shut-off
valve must be disconnected from the gas-
supply piping system during any pressure
testing of that system at test pressures in
excess of 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).
2. The appliance must be isolated from the
gas-supply piping system by closing its
individual manual shut-off valve during any
pressure testing of the gas supply piping
system at test pressures equal to or less than
1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).
INSTALLATION FOR NATURAL GAS
21
Natural Gas Grills - Connecting to Natural Gas
EXPLOSIVE AND FLAMMABLE!
If the appliance is for connection to natural
gas, the gas connections should be made by a
qualified installer or a licensed plumber. The
gas-supply line must not be installed by the
consumer.
Do not use liquid propane (L.P.)
gas in an appliance designed for natural gas.
Use only natural gas in an appliance designed
for natural gas.

5. Push the plug into the connector until the
sleeve snaps forward to lock the fitting in
place. Turn on the shut-off valve. The flow of
gas to the appliance will be restricted if the
plug is not connected properly.
6. Test for gas leaks using an ammonia-free
soap and water solution.
1. Pull connector sleeve back and pull plug
out of socket. This will automatically shut off
gas to the appliance.
2. Close the shut-off valve and install the dust
caps on the socket and plug. Always turn off
the fuel supply at the shut-off valve when the
grill is not in use.
Test all the fuel supply connections using an
ammonia-free soap and water solution equally
mixed. Never use fire to test for leaks.
1. Turn on the gas shut-off valve.
2. Coat all connections of the fuel supply
system, especially at the quick-connect.
3. Watch for bubbles to indicate a leak.
4. If there is a leak, shut off the gas supply

Leak Testing the
Fuel Supply System
Replacement Parts
Perform a leak test each time the gas
supply cylinder is connected to the regulator.
Leak test any time a part of the gas system
is replaced. Perform a leak test at least once
each year whether the L.P. gas supply
cylinder has been disconnected or not.
Have a dealer check the cylinder for
deterioration after 10 years, according to
DOT regulations. Immediately replace
cylinder if any is found.
IMPORTANT! Inspect the gas supply hose
regularly. If there are cuts, excessive
abrasion or wear, replace the hose prior to
operating the appliance.
Use only the hose replacement specified in
the parts list for your grill.
How to Check the Fuel Supply System for
Gas Leaks
1. Mix a solution of equal parts mild
detergent or liquid soap and water.
2. Turn off the burner control knobs.
3. Turn the top knob of the fuel-supply
cylinder counterclockwise one rotation to
open.
4. Apply the soap solution to all connections
of fuel-supply assembly.
If no soap bubbles appear, the grill is fine
for use.
If bubbles form at the connections, there is
a leak. In case of a leak, try tightening the
joint. If necessary, replace the faulty part with
a replacement part recommended by the
manufacturer.
5. Turn off the knob on fuel-supply cylinder.
6. Turn on the burner control knobs for a
moment to release pressure in hose, then
turn the control knobs back off.
7. Wash off soapy solution with cold water
and towel dry.
If you are unable to stop a leak, shut off the
gas supply at the cylinder valve. Remove the
cylinder from the grill. Call a gas appliance
serviceman or L.P. gas dealer. Do not use
appliance until the leak is fixed.

IGNITER LIGHTING SYSTEM
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
The Igniter System consists of an electronic
igniter unit, individual burner-mounted ceramic
electrodes, and lead wires. Gas is routed to
the electrodes at each burner. When the
igniter knob is pressed, an electric spark is
created at the ceramic electrode. The gas is
then ignited by the spark.
To test: Watch the electrode tip inside the gas
collector while activating the igniter. To avoid a
possible shock, do not touch the burner or
metal parts on igniter system while performing
igniter test. A visible spark should jump from
the electrode. The spark gap is set when the
electrode is installed.
If there isn't a spark, check the lead wires
and connections. The igniter wires should be
kept away from the grill bottom. Also check
that the ceramic electrode that is mounted
underneath the burner is not broken.
Sometimes dirt and rust at and around the
electrode can prevent an igniter spark. Clean
them with a degreaser or warm soapy water,
and dry. Remove rust from electrode tip and
metal surfaces by lightly sanding with an
emery cloth or fine-grain sandpaper.
(Read all the steps before beginning.)
STEP 1. Check the burner venturi tubes for
blockage from an insect nest (see,
“CLEANING THE BURNER VENTURI
TUBES”).
STEP 2. Ensure that all of the burner-control
knobs are in the OFF position.
STEP 3.
STEP 4. Turn on the fuel supply valve on the
L.P. gas cylinder. 1 to 1-1/2 counter-clockwise
turn is enough to open the valve.
25
CAUTION: Do not stand with head or arms
over the grill.
STEP 5. To light using the igniter:
Push in and turn the left-most burner-control
knob counter-clockwise to the high setting.
STEP 6. Immediately press in the igniter
button until you hear it clicking. Repeat 4 to 5
times if necessary.
The burner should light.
STEP 7. If the burner fails to light properly,
turn the burner control knob off. Also turn off
the L.P. cylinder knob. Wait five minutes before
attempting to light the burner again. This will
allow time for released gas to disperse.
HINT: If the burner does not light after trying
again, turn off burner-control knob, the L.P.
cylinder knob and try match lighting the grill
once the gas has cleared.
If your electronic igniter does not click, you
may need to replace the battery. Simply
unscrew the igniter button from the control
panel to access the battery.
Operating the Control Knobs
Use the LEFT-MOST burner gas control knob, PUSH
IN and rotate counter-clockwise.
PRESS THE IGNITER BUTTON - you will hear it
clicking.
Lighting Instructions
OPEN GRILL LID
WARNING: Attempting to light the grill with
the lid down could cause an explosion.

!
MATCH LIGHTING
Locating the Match Lighting Hole
Repeat steps 1 to 4 of “Igniter Lighting
Instructions.”
STEP 5. To match light: push down and turn the
burner control knob counterclockwise to the high
setting.
STEP 6. IMMEDIATELY strike a long wooden
match and position the burning match through
match lighting hole in the grill tub. Extend the
flame near a burner port in the burner. The burner
should light.
If a long-reach match or lighter is not accessible,
there is a match extension provided, attached
underneath the side burner table. Insert a match in
the holder end of the extension, strike the match,
and insert it through the match-lighting hole.
To light other burners, sequentially light one
adjacent burner at a time. DO NOT attempt to light
a burner that is not directly next to a lit burner
without using the igniter.
The match lighting holes are located beneath the
side tables in the sides of the grill tub.
26
Allow the grill to preheat with the grill lid closed
for five to ten minutes before cooking.
CAUTION: Do not touch any hot grill parts. The
outside of the grill bottom becomes very hot during
use. It may be necessary to use protective gloves.
STEP 1. Turn the burner-control knob(s) off. The
burner flame will go out.
STEP 2. Turn off the top L.P. cylinder valve by
turning the knob in a clockwise direction until it
stops.
IMPORTANT: Always have the gas shut off at the
L.P. cylinder valve when the grill is not in use. The
L.P. cylinder has a leak detection feature which will
restrict the amount of gas flow to the burner if the
tank shut-off valve has not been turned off prior to
the next use.
HOW TO SHUT OFF THE GRILL
Lighting Instructions
IMPORTANT: The match lighting holes are found
under the side tables, in the side of the grill tub.
When match lighting the grill, use the END gas
control knob on the side you are using (closest to
the match lighting hole).
To open the side burner, simply lift up and out
on the side burner lid. The lid can be used as
additional side table space.
To match light the side burner, follow steps 1

TO BREAK IN A NEW GRILL
BURNER'S FLAME
Before using it for the first time; operate the grill
with lid closed on a low setting for about 30to 45
minutes to “season” the grill. This will help burn
away oil and the smell of new paint. After the oil
has burned away, check the burner flame.
Keep the grill lid closed and the grids in place.
Inspect the burner's flame by carefully looking
below and through the air-supply openings in the
grill bottom.
A good flame should be blue with some yellow
tip coming from the burner holes. Some yellow
tips on flames up to 1" in length are acceptable
as long as no carbon or soot deposits appear.
If flames are excessively yellow and irregular,
the oil residue may not be completely burned off,
or the venturi may not be properly positioned
over the orifice(s). Allow grill to cool before
repositioning venturi over valve.
After a grill has been in use for a while it may
begin to have a more yellow flame. A build up of
food deposits, fats, or cooking seasonings can
cause yellowing of flames. Try cleaning the
burner to remove built-up residue. Check for
clogged burner holes or blocked venturi tubes.
Regular use of your grill will actually help keep
it operating more smoothly. It is not unusual for
similar units to heat a little differently.
28
Using Your Gas Grill
CONTROL SETTINGS
MULTIPLE BURNER COOKING SYSTEM
The high flame setting is for quick searing of
meat. Sear foods, then finish cooking on a lower
setting.
A medium setting works best for cooking
steaks, pork chops, and hamburgers.
The lowest setting works well for all roasts and
rotisserie foods. Even thick steaks, when seared
on a high setting first, will have a better texture
and be more juicy cooked on low.
The grill's burners may be operated to cook on
either side or both sides at once. This allows for
various styles of cooking.
1. Use a direct heat source when browning
meat or cooking hot dogs and hamburgers.
Check the food often.
2. Cook large-size foods (such as roasts,
turkey, or duck) on a low, direct heat. Place food
and water in foil pan with corrugated bottom,
adding water as needed.
CAUTION: Never use a glass dish of any kind
to either warm up or cook food on a grill.
Personal injury or damage may occur.
3. If doing skillet or stir-fry cooking, limit the
amount of oil and direct heat used.
4. Cook foods that burn easily over an indirect
heat. Light a burner on one side and place the
food on the other side for cooking. The food will
cook slower but should be more tender. This
method of cooking also reduces grease flare-up.
Add a small pan of water to help keep meat
moist, replace the water as needed.
5. Casseroles can be cooked in oven-proof or
foil pans using indirect heat.
6. Cook two foods at once using different
settings.
7. To add smoked flavor, try adding wood chips
in apple, mesquite, and hickory flavors.

CARING FOR YOUR GRILL
REGULAR CLEANING AND UPKEEP
Regular care of your grill will help keep it
operating properly. Cleaning or maintenance
may be done only when the grill is cool and with
the fuel supply turned off. Clean grill parts and
tighten loose hardware as needed.
Do not put grill parts in a self-cleaning oven as
the extreme heat could damage them. Do not
use a combustible or flammable cleanser on
grill. Do not use a commercial oven cleaner.
Always keep the grease pan beneath the grill
bottom to catch grease drippings during use.
CAUTION: The grease pan and grill bottom
become extremely hot during use. To avoid
burns empty grease pan only when the grill is
cool.
The small vent hole in the regulator must be
kept clean of dirt and debris. Keep the gas-
supply hose at least 3" away from any grill
surface that becomes hot during use.
After each cooking, shut the lid and turn control
knobs to highest setting for 5 minutes to burn off
grease drippings inside grill.
Use a brass bristle brush on the porcelain
coated cooking grids. Wash the cooking grids
with a mild soap, a scrub brush and hot water.
Use a mild soap and hot water to wash all other
grill parts.
To refinish the outside of the cast aluminum grill
end caps, clean and then lightly sand with a fine
sandpaper. Clean with a vinegar / water solution,
and rinse with water. When dry, paint with a high
temperature paint following directions on paint
can label.
COOKING TIPS
IN CASE OF A MAJOR GREASE FIRE
Prior to lighting the grill, coat the cooking grids
with cooking oil to prevent food from sticking.
Preheat the grill with the lid closed about five to
ten minutes before cooking. Cook with lid down
when possible. This will keep temperature even,
conserve fuel, improve food's flavor, and lessen
flare-ups.
Never leave cooking food unattended. Frozen
meat and poultry should be thawed before
cooking. Trim the excess fat. Frozen fish and
vegetables will cook without thawing. However,
placing frozen food onto very hot porcelain grids
can crack the porcelain finish.
Add salt to food after cooking to prevent it from
drying out. Brush naturally lean meat, poultry or
fish with cooking oil or margarine.
Cook small pieces of tender foods in foil. Apply
barbecue, tomato, or sugar-based sauces no
sooner than the last ten minutes of cooking.
Turn food with a long-handled spatula or tongs.
During operation, stand to side of grill when
opening the grill lid. Lift lid handle slowly in case
of a grease flare-up. Do not position any part of
your body directly above the cooking area.
Some flare-up is expected. It adds a smoky
flavor and sears food, but a major grease fire
can cause a potentially hazardous situation and
damage the grill.
,
follow these steps:
1. Turn the burner-control knob(s) to off.
2. Stay away from grill.
3. Allow the fire to burn itself out.
4. After the fire is out and the grill is cool, shut
off the fuel supply valve at the fuel source.
5. Clean all parts.
6. Check for damage to the gas-supply hose,
burner valve, and burner. On L.P. appliances
also check the L.P. cylinder, L.P. cylinder valve,
regulator and hose. If any of these parts are
damaged, replace them with factory authorized
parts before operating the appliance again.
29
Caring for Your Gas Grill
IMPORTANT: NEVER leave a grill unattended
when in use.
Inspect and clean the burners regularly. Remove
grill components from the grill bottom necessary to
get to the burner inside. Use a wire bristle brush to
clean the burner surface. A straightened paper clip is
useful to remove debris or rust from the small burner
ports.
Spiders and other insects are known to sometimes
build homes inside the burner tubes. This can
become a serious problem. A spider web or wasp
nest inside the burner tube can block gas flow and
can cause a fire at the gas control valve. Such a fire
can cause operator injury and do serious damage to
your grill. The burner tubes have fine screens to
discourage spiders and insects from building a nest
inside. However, some very small spiders may spin
webs inside the tubes.
Inspect the burner tubes if a blockage is suspected.
First, disconnect and remove the fuel source from
the grill.
Next detach and remove the burner from grill
bottom by lifting from the back, rotating and sliding
out the front of the tube. Make sure to disconnect
the igniter wire.
Insert a long pipe cleaner (about 20" long) inside
the burner tubes to loosen and remove blockages.
Use care so as not to damage the screens inside the
tubes. A high pressured stream of water may also be
used.
CLEARING THE BURNER TUBES
If a blockage occurs inside the gas-control valve,
located behind the control panel, it may be
necessary to clear the valve orifices. Unscrew the
orifices from rear of the gas-control valve. Wash the
orifices and blow air through the small end holes.
Replace the orifices into the valve ends when they
are dry.
Replace the burners into the grill bottom after
they are clean.
30
Cleaning and Maintenance
IMPORTANT! Make sure the valve orifices are
inside burner tubes. Secure burner to the grill
bottom, and reconnect the igniter wires. Replace all
other parts inside grill. Reconnect the fuel cylinder to
grill. Inspect the condition and position of the gas-
supply hose.
Portable grills can be stored indoors without the
cylinder. If leaving it outdoors, cover the grill for
protection from weather.
If owner-supplied electrical accessories are used
with grill (such as an electric rotisserie), follow
specification statements included with the accessory.
Do not allow cord to touch any hot surfaces that
could melt the insulation.
IMPORTANT: If using an external electrical source,
the installed appliance must be electrically grounded
according to local codes or, in the absence of local
codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA
70 or the Canadian Electrical Code CSA C22.1.
Grounding Instructions: Use an appliance equipped
with a three-prong grounding plug for your protection
against shock hazard. It should be plugged directly
into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle. Do
not remove the grounding prong from a three-prong
plug.
STORING AN L.P. GRILL
OPTIONAL ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIES
Long detachable power-supply cords or extension
cords can also be used with care. The marked
electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord
should be at least as great as the electrical rating of
the appliance. If the appliance is of the grounded
type, the extension cord should be a grounding-type
3 wire cord. Use outdoor extension cords with a
surface marked with suffix letters “W-A” and with a
tag stating “Suitable for Use with Outdoor
Appliances.”
Keep the connection to an extension cord away
from water and off the ground. Arrange the cord
so that it will not drape over the counter top or
tabletop where it can be pulled or tripped over.
Do not clean any electrical product with a water
spray or the like. Store electrical products
indoors out of reach of children when not in use.
