USE  AND  CARE  INSTRUCTIONS

NOTE about LP Gas Tank Exchange Programs

Many retailers who sell grills offer you the  option of
replacing your empty LP Gas tank through an exchange

service. Use only those reputable exchange compa-
nies that inspect, precision fill, test and certify their tanks.
Exchange your tank only for an OPD safety feature-

equipped tank as described in the LP Gas tank section
of this guide.

Leak test new and exchanged LP Gas tanks BEFORE
connecting one to your grill.

Always keep new and exchanged LP Gas tanks in an
upright position with cylinder valve turned off during use,
transit or storage.

Do not use, store or transport cylinder where it would
be exposed to high temperatures. Relief valve may open

allowing a large amount of flammable gas to escape.

Secure a  20lb  LP  Gas  Tank  to  Gas  Grill

NOTE:

 When using  Liquid Propane,  EXTREME  CAU-

TION  should  be  used  to  provide  ample  ventilation  of
vapor  from  the  enclosure.  LP  Gas  vapor  is  heavier
than  air

 

and  SERIOUS  INJURY  from a DANGEROUS

EXPLOSION  could  occur  if  LP  Gas  is  allowed  to
accumulate in an enclosure and then ignited. Both the
Barbecue  enclosure  and  LP  cylinder  enclosure  re-

quire  venting  that  must  be  provided  at  the  floor  level
of  the  enclosure  to  allow  any  leaking  LP  Gas  vapor
to  escape  (see  Fig.  1).

NOTE: 

When  installing  a barbecue  equipped  for liquid

propane(LP)  in  a  cabinet,  the  propane  tank  must  be
in  a  separate  enclosure  that  is  completely  isolated

from  the  barbecue.  It  must  be  cross-ventilated  in
accordance  with  the  current  standards.  The  propane
tank  MUST  NEVER  be  installed  directly  under  the

barbecue.

NOTE:

  The  total  of  the  upper  ventilation  openings

must  be  a  minimum  of  20  sq.  inches.  The  total  of

the  lower  ventilation  openings  must  be  a  minimum
of  10  sq.  inches.  Upper  and  lower  ventilation  open-
ings  MUST  BE  PROVIDED  on  both  sides  of  built-in

construction.  The  top  of the  upper ventilation openings
must  be  located  within  5"  from  the  top  of  the  island.
The  bottom  of  the  lower  ventilation  openings  must  be

at  least  1"  or  less  from  the  floor  of  the  island.  The
top  of  the  lower  ventilation  openings  cannot  be  more
than  5"  from  the  floor  of  the  island.  Every  ventilation

opening  must  be  a  minimum  of  1/8".  (See  Fig.  6  on
page 12).  Please ask  a  Grand  Hall associate  for  more
details.

How to Leak Test your LP Gas Tank

Use a clean paintbrush and a 50/50 mild soap and

water solution.

For your safety:

All leak tests must be repeated each time your LP Gas
tank is exchanged or refilled.

When checking for gas leaks do not smoke.

Do not use an open flame to check for gas leaks.

Your grill must be leak tested outdoors in a well-ven-
tilated area, away from ignition sources such as gas

fired or electrical appliances. During the leak test, keep
your grill away from open flames or sparks.

Do not use household cleaning agents. Damage to
gas assembly components can result.
