FILLING THE LP GAS CYLINDER:
•
Allow only qualified LP gas dealers to properly fill or repair your LP gas cylinder.
•
New tanks should be purged prior to filling; inform LP gas dealer if you are using a new tank.
•
DO NOT allow the cylinder to be filled beyond 80% capacity. Over-filled tanks can create a
dangerous condition. Over-filled tanks can build-up pressure and cause the relief valve to expel
propane gas vapors. The vapor is combustible and if it comes in contact with a spark source or
flame an explosion causing severe burns, bodily harm, or death could occur.
•
Place dust cap on cylinder valve outlet whenever the cylinder is not in use. Only install the type
of dust cap on the cylinder valve outlet that is provided with the cylinder valve, other types of
caps or plugs may result in leakage of propane.
•
If you exchange a cylinder with a qualified exchange program, be sure the cylinder has
a Type 1 valve and an over-filling prevention device (OPD).
INSTALLING THE LP GAS CYLINDER ONTO THE GRILL:
1. Check that the cylinder valve is closed by turning the knob
clockwise.
2. Open the right side door of your grill cabinet. Place the
cylinder into the tank holder in the bottom of cabinet.
3. Orient the cylinder such that the valve opening faces the
side burner, and so that the hose is not kinked or
damaged.
4. Fully tighten the tank retention screw on the back side of
grill to secure tank.
5. Attach or detach regulator to the LP gas cylinder only
when cylinder is at rest in tank holder.
HOSE AND REGULATOR:
Your grill is equipped with a Type 1 connection device with
the following features:
1. The system will not allow gas flow from the cylinder until
a positive connection to the valve has been made.
Note:
The cylinder valve must be turned off before any
connection is made or removed.
2. A thermal device that will shut off the gas flow if the device is
subject to temperatures above 240°F to 300°F (115°C to
150°C). If this should happen, remove the entire regulator
assembly and dispose of properly. A replacement regulator
assembly can be purchased by contacting customer service
at 800-527-0717. The cause of the excessive heat should be
determined and corrected before using your grill again.
3. A regulator flow limiting device, when activated, restricts the
flow of gas to 10 cubic feet per hour. If the flow limiting device
is activated, perform Regulator Resetting Procedure.
WARNING
REGULATOR RESETTING PROCEDURE:
1. Make sure that all burners are off. The red indicator light above the ON/OFF switch for the burners should
not be lit, turn off the cylinder valve and disconnect regulator from LP gas tank. Wait approximately
two minutes.
2. Reattach regulator and slowly turn cylinder valve back on. The flow limiting device will now be reset.
