Ducane 2020805 owner manual Normal Operation

NORMAL OPERATION

WARNING: Your Ducane® grill was not designed to operate with the Rotisserie Burner and the Main Burner(s) on at the same time. Failure to follow this warning will lead to an over- heating condition which would damage grill components and cause bodily harm.

WARNING: Keep any electrical supply cord and the fuel sup- ply hose away from any heated surfaces.

Plug in Accessory Power to Your Grill

Connect your grill to a convenient outdoor outlet. This appliance shall be grounded while in use to protect the operator from electrical shock. The appliance is equipped with a 3-conductor cord and a 3-prong grounding-type plug to fit the proper grounding-type receptacle. Plug into a GFCI protected outdoor receptacle, where available.

WARNING: Use only 3-wire extension cords that have

3-prong grounding-type plugs and 3-pole cord connectors that accept the plug from the appliance. Only extension cords identified by the marking with the suffix letters W-A, and tagged “Suitable for use with outdoor appliances” shall be used outdoors. Use only extension cords having an electrical rating not less than the rating of the appliance. Do not use damaged extension cords. Examine extension cord before using and replace if damaged. Do not abuse extension cord and do not tug on any cord to disconnect. Keep cord away from heat and sharp edges.

Lighting Your Grill

WARNING: Before each use of your grill it is important to inspect the full length of the gas line hose. Your hose can be accessed through the cabinet doors. If it is evident there is excessive abrasion or wear, or the hose is cut, the hose must be replaced with a manufacturer recommended part prior to the appliance being put into operation.

Check your parts list or your authorized dealer for the proper replacement hose as- sembly. It will be necessary to open the doors to fully inspect the hose.

DANGER: Make sure that the lid is in the full open postion any time you attempt to light your grill. Failure to open the lid could lead to delayed ignition which may result in serious bodily injury or death, or in a fire or an explosion causing damage to property.

WARNING: The burner control knobs must be in the OFF position before turning on the liquid propane cylinder tank valve. If they are not in the OFF position, when you turn on the LP cylinder valve, the “excess gas flow control” feature will activate, limiting the gas flow of gas from the LP cylin- der. If this should occur, turn off the LP cylinder valve and burner control knobs. Then start over.

DANGER: When the “excess gas flow control” feature is ac- tivated, a small amount of gas is still flowing to the burners. After turning OFF the cylinder valve, wait at least 5 minutes for the gas to clear before attempting to light the barbecue. Failure to do so may result in an explosive flame-up, which can cause serious bodily injury or death.

IMPORTANT

If an external electrical source is used it must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes and/or the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70, or the Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1
