BURNER VALVE / REGULATOR

The burner control operates in the following positions indicated by the pointer at the top of the regulator as installed on the grill:

OFF - This stops the flow of gas to the burner.

PUSH TO TURN ON - Push "IN" on the knob to release the knob from the locked "OFF"

position.

HIGH - This position provides the highest gas flow and the hottest cooking temperatures.

MED - This position provides cooking temperatures between HIGH and LOW.

LOW - This position provides the lowest cooking temperatures.

COOKING TEMPERATURE SETTINGS

HIGH - Approximately 450F

MED - Approximately 400F

LOW - Approximately 350F

Note: A disposable 1 lb. propane cylinder "NEAR EMPTY" can significantly reduce internal pressure and may affect the regulator's capability to accurately control gas flow. As the propane cylinder reaches empty, this may cause "hotter-than-normal" cooking temperatures during the final minutes of use.

Note: A disposable 1 lb. propane cylinder will provide approximately 4-6 hours of cooking time with the Kenmore Table Top Grill.
