CONNECTING TO A GAS SUPPLY
GAS CYLINDER REQUIREMENTS
The griddle is set and tested with liquid propane gas only. When purchasing a gas cylinder for use with this unit, ensure it meets
the following requirements: 0.45 kg (1 lb) / 19.6 cm (7.75 in) capacity, only marked “PROPANE", constructed and marked in accordance
with Specifications for LP Gas Cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) or the National Standard of Canada, CAN\
CSA-B339, Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for Transportation of Dangerous Goods; and Commission, as applicable (see label for marking).
This griddle has been provided with a cylinder connection device that is compatible with the griddle’s regulator port.
CAUTION: It is important to inspect the cylinder connection device. Check the propane tank valve
rubber seal for cracks, wear or deterioration prior to use. A damaged rubber seal can cause a gas
leak, possibly resulting in an explosion, fire, or severe bodily harm. Do not use a propane tank with a
damaged rubber seal.
INSTALLING A GAS CYLINDER
1. Make sure burner control knob is turned OFF by pushing it in
and turning it clockwise to the OFF position.
2. While holding the lid handle side closest to propane cylinder
with one hand, push propane cylinder into regulator and turn
clockwise until tight.
3. For optimum performance, allow cylinder to hang vertically in
the Cylinder Wire Retainer where there is no danger of being
bumped or disturbed. Note proper positioning shown. The
cylinder angle to the horizontal plane should not be less than
20 degrees.
4. Gas cylinder is now installed.
The outdoor grill, when installed, must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes
with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70, or Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1.
1. Do not store a spare LP gas tank under or near this appliance.
2. The cylinder supply system must be arranged for vapor withdrawal.
3. If the information in 1) and 2) is not followed exactly a fire causing death or serious injury may occur.
DISCONNECTING A GAS CYLINDER
1. Ensure the control knob on the griddle is completely closed by turning to the OFF position. Turn LP gas tank valve to the
CLOSED position, and allow the regulator knob to pop out.
2. Turn the cylinder counter-clockwise (by hand) to disconnect from the regulator valve opening. Replace the protective caps
on the regulator valve opening and the top of the gas cylinder for storage (if not empty).
NOTE: If storing the griddle indoors, leave the gas cylinder outdoors.
WARNING: Do not transport griddle with gas cylinder attached. The cylinder may loosen off the valve, and
cause a gas leak, possibly resulting in an explosion, fire, or severe bodily harm. Disconnect gas cylinder
first before travel or storage.
