Correct LP Gas Tank Use

LP gas grill models are designed for use with a standard 20 lb. Liquid Propane Gas (LP gas) tank,

not included in grill box. Never connect your gas grill to an LP gas tank that exceeds this capacity. A tank of approximately 12 inches in diameter by 18-1/2 inches high is the maximum size LP gas

tank to use. You must use an "OPD" gas tank which offers a listed Overfill Prevention Device.

This safety feature prevents tank from being overfilled which can cause malfunction of LP gas tank, regulator and/or grill.

The LP gas tank must be constructed and marked in accordance with the Specifications for LP-Gas

inders of the U.S. Department of Transportation O.T.) or the National Standard of Canada, CAN/ A-B339, Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for Trans-

portation of Dangerous Goods; and Commission, as applicable.

1.The LP gas tank has a shutoff valve, termi- nating in an LP gas supply tank valve outlet, that is compatible with a Type 1 tank con- nection device. The LP gas tank must also have a safety relief device that has a direct connection with the vapor space of the tank.

2.The tank supply system must be arranged for vapor withdrawal.

3.The LP gas tank used must have a collar to protect the tank valve.

Proper Placement and Clearance of Grill Never use your gas grill in a garage, porch, shed, breezeway or any other enclosed area. Your gas gdll is to be used outdoors only, at least 24 inches from the back and side of any combustible surface. Do not locate this appliance under overhead unprotected combustible surfaces. Do not obstruct the flow of

ventilation air around the gas gdll housing.

This outdoor gas grill is not intended to be installed in or on recreational vehicles and/or boats.

Never connect an unregulated LP gas tank to your gas grill. The gas regulator assembly supplied with your gas grill is adjusted to have an outlet pressure of 11" water column (W.C.) for connection to an LP gas tank.

Only use the regulator and hose assembly supplied with your gas grill. Replacement

regulators and hose assemblies must be those specified by Sears.

Have your LP gas tank filled by a reputable

propane gas dealer and visually inspected and re-qualified at each filling.

Never fill the gas tank beyond 80% full. Have your propane gas dealer check the

release valve after every filling to ensure that it remains free of defects.

Always keep LP gas tanks in upright position. Do not store (or use) gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this gas grill.

LP gas tanks not connected for use must NOT be stored on bottom shelf or in the vicinity of this or any other gas gdll.

Do not subject the LP gas tank to excessive heat.

Never store an LP gas tank indoors. If you

store your gas grill in the garage or other indoor location, always disconnect the LP gas tank first and store it safely outside.

LP gas tanks must be stored outdoors in a well-ventilated area and out of the reach of

children. Disconnected LP gas tanks must not be stored in a building, garage or any other enclosed area.

When your gas grill is not in use the gas must be turned off at the LP gas tank.

The regulator and hose assembly can be seen after opening the doors (if applicable), must be inspected before each use of the grill. If there is excessive abrasion or wear or if the hose is

cut, it must be replaced prior to the grill being used again.

Keep the gas regulator hose away from hot grill surfaces and dripping grease. Avoid unnec-

essary twisting of hose. Visually inspect hose prior to each use for cuts, cracks, excessive wear or other damage. If the hose appears

damaged do not use the gas grill. Call Sears at 1-800-4-MY-HOME (1-800-469-4663) for a

Sears authorized replacement hose.

Never light your gas grill with the lid closed or

before checking to ensure the burner tubes are fully seated over the gas valve orifices.

Never allow children to operate your grill. Do not allow children to play near your grill.

Z WARNING

If you smell gas:

Shut off gas supply to the gas grill.

Turn the Control Knobs to OFF position.

Extinguish any open flame such as candle, cigarette, lighter, etc., that could cause gas to ignite.

Open the Grill Lid.

Get away from the LP gas tank.

Do not try to fix the problem yourself.

If odor continues or you have a fire you cannot extinguish, call your fire department. Do not call near the LP gas tank because your telephone is an electri- cal device and could create a spark resulting in fire and/or explosion.

NOTE: The normal flow of gas through the regulator and hose assembly can create a humming noise. A tow volume of noise is perfectly normal and wilt not interfere with operation of the grill. If humming noise is loud and excessive you may need to purge air from the gas line or reset the regulator

excess gas flow device. This purging proce- dure should be done every time a new LP

gas tank is connected to your grill. For help call the Grill Information Center for

assistance, 8am - 8pro CST, Monday through Friday 1-888-317-7642.
