BEFORE USING YOUR LP GAS GRILL

STEP 1. Set up grill at the location where you will be using it.

Selecting a Location

·Do not use an LP gas grill indoors, on recreational vehicles, or on a boat.

·This LP gas grill is for outdoor use only and should be placed on firm, level surface. The grill should be placed in an open area with good ventilation, away from high traffic areas and combustible materials.

·Combustible or flammable materials should never be used or stored within 36 inches of the back or sides of your LP gas grill.

·Locate your LP gas grill at least 10 feet away from your house or any building. Do not use the grill in a garage, breezeway, carport, porch, or under a surface that can catch fire.

STEP 2. Perform a leak test.

Leak Testing

·Always perform a leak test before each use.

·Leak test must be performed in a well ventilated area.

·Never perform a leak test on a grill while in use or hot.

·If you detect a gas leak that cannot be corrected by using the leak test procedures below, do not use the LP gas grill.

·Never smoke or have an open flame near the grill.

Supplies Needed for a Leak Test

Clean paint brush, water, and dishwashing liquid.

How to perform a leak test: See leak test diagrams next page.)

WARNING! Never use an open flame to test for gas leaks.

1)Mix 1-cup of water with one cup of dishwashing liquid.

2)Make sure all Control Knobs are in the “Off” position.

3)Remove the two Cooking Surfaces.

4)Pull the Control Knobs off the valve stems. Remove the 5-screws securing the Grid Insert Guide, Control Panel and Chain and Match Holder. Lay parts aside. (See page 11 FIG. 22A)

5)If LP Cylinders are not already connected, attach them according to above instructions for Attaching LP Gas Cylinder to Regulator.

6)(For 1lb. Disposable Cylinders) Check for leaks by brushing the soap solution around the connections between the gas cylinder and the regulator (FIG. 17A), the hose connection to the contol valve (FIG. 17B), and the Control valve nozzle. (FIG. 17C) Make sure you generously brush the locations with the soap solution, completely surrounding the connections and fittings. (For 20 lb. LP Cylinders) Open the cylinder valve by turning the LP gas cylinder handle counter-clock wise. Check for leaks by brushing the soap solution around the connection between the gas regulator and hose (FIG. 18A) and the hose connection to the LP cylinder valve (FIG. 18B)

7)If “growing” bubbles appear on any of the connection points, then you have detected a gas leak. Immediately disconnect the LP cylinder from the regulator.
