Safety

PROPANE GAS FUEL (continued)

DANGER

Never install a freestanding outdoor propane Grill in an “island” configuration, (i.e. where it is enclosed in any type of construction), to prevent a fire or gas explosion.

a)Never store a spare LP - Gas Cylinder under or near this appliance

b)Never fill the cylinder beyond 80% full; and

c)Always comply with these warnings, to prevent a fire causing death or serious injury.

WARNING

Always confirm that all opening in the cylinder-compartmet of this Grill are free of any obstructions that would restrict the circulation of ventilation air. Good ventilation will prevent any leaked propane vapor (which is heavier than air) from pooling. Pooled propane vapor is a hazard, as it could explode if ignited.

Always handle propane cylinders with great care, as the contents are under high pressure.

After first closing the grill control knob on the grill console, always close the propane cylinder valve prompt- ly after each use of the Grill.

Always store propane cylinders outdoors, in an upright, secure position, out of direct sunlight, away from liv- ing quarters and in a well-ventilated, cool, dry area.

NEVER STORE A CYLINDER IN A BUILDING, GARAGE OR OTHER STRUCTURE OR ENCLOSED AREA.

Always keep cylinders out of reach of children.

Always confirm that a valve dust cap has been tightly installed and that the valve itself is fully closed, when- ever a propane cylinder has been disconnected.

Always transport a propane cylinder in an upright, secure position, after confirming that its valve is closed.

Always stabilize a cylinder so that it cannot move, when it is being transported in a car trunk.

Never transport a propane cylinder in the passenger compartment of a car or truck.

Never store a Gas Grill indoors, unless the propane cylinder has first been disconnected and removed from the Grill.

Never expose a propane cylinder to any heat source and never apply heat directly to a cylinder.

Never store a spare cylinder in the vicinity of this Grill.

Never paint a propane cylinder a dark color, as this can cause the cylinder and its contents to overheat.

Always install the LP cylinder in an upright position with the valve at the top, to facilitate vapor withdrawal, as shown in Figure 3.

NOTICE

Always have a certified propane gas supplier inspect and re-qualify your refillable propane gas cylinder prior to each refilling, in accordance with DOT or TC requirements for propane cylinders.
