WARNING

LP GAS CYLINDER

Use only a 20 pound LP Gas Cylinder or smaller with a protective collar.

LP (propane) gas is colorless, tasteless, heavier than air, and is both flammable and explosive. Combustion of propane consumes oxygen and produces carbon monoxide, a poisonous gas. Therefore, never operate an outdoor cooker appliance inside a building or confined area where ventilation may be restricted. Make sure the LP cylinder and the cooker are placed in an open area. DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.

Never use a gas cylinder if it shows signs of dents, gouges, bulges, fire damage, erosion, leakage, excessive rust, or other forms of visible external damage. The cylinder may be hazardous and should be checked by a qualified liquid propane supplier.

Never attach a gas cylinder, move or alter fittings while cooker is hot or in operation.

Do not attempt to disconnect the regulator hose assembly while cooker is in operation.

When cooker use is complete, always turn the LP cylinder valve OFF first, then turn the regulator control valve OFF. Turning the cylinder OFF first allows remaining gas to flow out of the regulator hose assembly before the regulator control valve is turned OFF.

DO NOT use external electrical sources with this appliance.

Storage of this appliance indoors is permissible only if the cylinder is disconnected and removed from the appliance and left outdoors. Cylinders must be stored outdoors out of the reach of children and must not be stored in a building, garage or any other enclosed area.

The installation of this appliance must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Storage and Handling of Liquefied Petroleum Gases, ANSI/NFPA 58, Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1, Propane Storage and Handling, CSA B149.2, or the Standard for Recreational Vehciles, ANSI A119.2/NFPA 1192 and the Recreational Vehicle Code, CSA z240 RV Series.

Refer to section about LP Gas Cylinder Information on pages 10 - 11 in this manual.
