11. Inspect LP gas supply hose prior to each use of the appliance . The hose must be kept away
from heated areas of the appliance. If there is evidence of excessive abrasion or wear, or the
hose is cut, it must be replaced before using the appliance. The hose and LP regulator are
supplied as a complete assembly and must be replaced together. Do not attempt to repair or
replace the hose itself. Contact your Hestan dealer for genuine replacement P/N 014309. If
you have a appliance connected to an external stationary supply with a 10ft. hose, the same
inspection must be done on a regular basis. See details on pg. 13 “GAS CONNECTION TO A
STATIONARY SUPPLY”.
12. Keep any electrical supply cord away from the heated areas of the appliance. The cord is
provided with a 3-prong grounding plug which should not be removed or altered. Do not use
this appliance with an ungrounded, 2-prong adapter. The cord must be plugged into a properly
grounded GFCI-protected outlet. See INSTALLATION section of this manual.
13. Spiders and insects like to nest in the burners, venturis, valves, and orifices of the grill and side
burner, disrupting the gas flow in the burner. This very dangerous condition can cause a fire
behind the control panel, damaging the appliance and risking personal injury. If your appliance
has been unused for a long time, inspect and clean the burners, venturis, valves, and orifices. It
is recommended you inspect your appliance at least twice a year. See BURNER ADJUSTMENT
section of this manual for details.
14. Keep the areas surrounding the appliance free from combustible materials, trash, or
combustible fluids and vapors such as gasoline or charcoal lighter fluid. Do not obstruct the
flow of combustion gases (rear) and ventilation airways (front).
15. If your appliance is mounted on a cart, keep the rear area free and clear of debris, extra LP
cylinders, etc. Do not block the ventilation louvers of the cart.
16. If your appliance is mounted on a cart and stored indoors, ensure that it is cool before moving.
If propane is used, the LP cylinder must be disconnected and stored OUTSIDE in a well-
ventilated area, out of the reach of children. A appliance cover is recommended, even when
stored indoors.
17. Never move the appliance when hot. When in use, portions of the grill and side burner are hot
enough to cause severe burns.
18. Always have an “ABC” type fire extinguisher accessible – never attempt to extinguish a grease
fire with water or other liquids.
19. Avoid wearing loose-fitting garments or long sleeves while using the appliance. They could
ignite. For personal safety, wear proper apparel while grilling/cooking. Some synthetic fabrics
are highly flammable and should not be worn while grilling/cooking.
20. Never let pot holders, grill covers, or other flammable materials come in contact with or too
close to any cooking grate, burner, or hot surface until it has cooled down sufficiently. Fabrics
may ignite and result in personal injury. Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders
on hot surfaces may cause burns from steam. Do not use a towel or bulky cloth in place of
potholders. Do not let potholders touch hot portions of the cooking grates or warming racks.
21. Never touch the cooking grates, hood, or immediate surrounding metal surfaces with your bare
hands while grilling/cooking, as these areas become extremely hot and could cause burns. Use
only the handles and knobs provided for operation of the appliance.
22. Protect your hand when opening a hot grill hood. Use an insulated glove or mitt when
operating the grill. Always open the hood slowly to allow heat and smoke to escape before
fully opening. Keep your face and body as far away as possible when opening the hood. Never
lean over an open hot grill.
23. The grill hood must be fully opened while lighting the grill. Opening the gas valves on a closed
grill before lighting will not make it light sooner or more efficiently. It will only risk explosion
and personal injury, or death. Never lean over a hot grill surface, or look directly into the grill
when attempting to light. See the LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS section of this manual.
