tank valve.
NOTE : If flow limiting device activates, your grill may not light. If
your grill does light, the flames will be low and will not heat
properly.

seconds.
2. After shutting off the tank, very slowly open the tank valve
and wait 5 seconds before lighting.
3.
Light the burners one at a time. See “Lighting the Grill and
side burner” section.

Gas pressure is affected by size and length of the gas line from
the house to the grill. Contact a qualified gas technician to
provide the Natural gas supply to the selected grill location in
accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI
Z223.1/NFPA54 - latest edition and local codes.
