Proper Placement and Clearance of Grill

Never use your gas grill in a garage, porch, shed, breezeway or any other enclosed area. Your gas grill is to be used outdoors only, at least 24 inches from the back and side of any combustible surface. Your gas grill should not be placed under any surface that will burn. Do not obstruct the flow of ventilation

air around the gas grill housing.

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

WARNING

Failure to comply with these instructions could result in a fire or explosion that could cause serious bodily injury, death, or property damage.

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 an upright position.

Do not store (or use) gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this gas grill.

An LP gas tank that is not connected for use must not be stored in the vicinity of this or any other gas grill.

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 weIFventilated area. 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 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 unnecessary 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 for a Sears authorized replacement hose.

Never light your gas grill with the lid closed or before checking to insure 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.

WARNI NG

A strong gas smell, or the hissing sound of gas indicates a serious problem with your gas grill or the LP gas tank. Failure to immediately follow the steps listed below could result in a fire or explosion that could cause serious bodily injury, death, or prop- erty damage.

Shut off gas supply to the gas grill.

Turn the control knobs to OFF position.

Put out any flame with a fire extinguisher.

Open 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 extinquish, call your fire

department.

Do not

call

near

the LP

gas tank

because

your telephone

is an

electrical

device

and

could

create

a spark

resulting

 

in fire

and/or

explosion.

CAUTION: Spiders and small insects occa- sionally spin webs or make nests in the grill burner tubes during transit and

warehousing. These webs can lead to a gas flow obstruction which could result in a fire

in and around the burner tubes. This type of fire is known as a "FLASH-BACK" and can

cause serious damage to your grill and create an unsafe operating condition for the user.

Although an obstructed burner tube is not

the only cause of "FLASH-BACK", it is the most common cause.

To reduce the chance of "FLASH-BACK", you must clean the burner tubes before assembling your grill, and at least once a month in late summer or early fall when spiders are most active. Also perform this burner tube cleaning procedure if your grill has not been used for an extended period of time.
