GAS HOOK-UP Instructions

CYLINDER CONNECTION: Ensure that the gas regulator hose is kink free. Remove the cap or plug from the cylinder fuel valve. Insert the black QCC1 regulator nipple onto the QCC1 fuel valve. Hand tighten clockwise. Do not use tools. Leak test all joints prior to using the barbecue. A leak test must be performed annually, and each time a cylinder is hooked up, or if a part of the gas system is replaced.

PROPANE CYLINDER INSTALLATION: Set cylinder into hole in bottom shelf.

IMPORTANT: The regulator must be attached so that no part of the hose touches the underside of the grill or drippan. A fire will result if these directions are ignored.

NATURAL GAS HOOK-UP:This natural gas grill is supplied with a 10ft supply hose (complete with a quick disconnect) designed for natural gas and certified for outdoor use. The gas grill is designed to operate at an inlet pressure of 7 inches water column. Piping and valves upstream of the quick disconnect are not supplied.

The quick disconnect must not be installed in an upward direction and a readily accessible manual shut-off valve must be installed upstream of, and as close to, the quick disconnect as is feasible. The flared end of the hose must be connected to the fitting on the end of the flex tube as illustrated in the Natural Gas Hose Attachment diagram. Tighten using two wrenches. (Do not use thread sealer/pipe dope.) These connections must be made by a licensed gas installer. Leak test all joints prior to using the gas grill.

LEAK TESTING INSTRUCTIONS

DO NOT USE A FLAME TO LEAK TEST.

LEAK TESTING: This must be done before initial use, annually and whenever any gas components are replaced or serviced. No smoking while performing this test, and remove all sources of ignition. See Leak Testing Diagram for areas to check.

1.Turn all burner controls to off. Turn supply valve on.

2.Brush a half and half solution of liquid soap and water onto all joints and connections of the regulator, hose, manifolds and valves.

3.Bubbles will indicate a gas leak. Either tighten the loose joint or replace the part with one recommended by the dealer.

4.If the leak cannot be stopped, shut off the gas supply, disconnect it and have the barbecue inspected by your gas supplier or dealer. Do not use the appliance until the leak has been corrected.

5.Turn off gas supply.
