Question: What is the best way to protect my new Kenmore gas grill from the weather?

Answer: A good quality grill cover should be used to protect your gdJJwhen not in use. Kenmore Grill Cover

#15811 is made to fit this particular grill model. Also,

follow the cleaning and maintenance instructions in this Owner'sManual on a timely basis, and your new grill will give you years of enjoyment.

Question: Where can I buy replacement parts?

Answer: For the repair or replacement parts you need call 6 am - 11 pm CST, 7 days a week 1-800-366- PART (1-800-366-7278). Use only Sears authorized parts. The use of any part that is not Sears authorized can be dangerous and will also void your product warranty. You will need your model number and serial number to order parts.

Question: Are the serial and model numbers of my grill listed somewhere for future reference?

Answer: This information is listed on a silver label found on the right side of your Grill Head under the Side Shelf.

Question: Sometimes I hear a humming sound coming from my regulator. What causes this?

Answer: The humming noise is actually the gas flowing through the regulator. A low volume of noise is perfectly normal and will not interfere with the opera- tions of the grill. If humming noise is loud and exces- sive you may need to purge air from the gas line or reset the regulator excess gas flow device. Note: This purging procedure should be done every time a new LP gas tank is connected to your grill. For help with this procedure refer to page 17, step 4, or call the
