GAS INSTRUCTIONS
Fill liquid propane cylinder
Note - The liquid propane cylinder manufacturer is respon-
sible for the materials, workmanship and performance of
the cylinder. If the cylinder has a defect, malfunctions, or
you have a question regarding the cylinder, call the cylin-
der manufacturer’s customer service center. The phone
number is on the warning decal, which is permanently
attached to the cylinder. If the cylinder manufacturer has
not resolved the issue to your satisfaction, then contact the
Customer Service Representative in your region using the
contact information sheet provided with your manual.
To fi ll, take the liquid propane cylinder and fi ller adapter to
an RV center or look up gas-propane in the phone book for
other sources of liquid propane gas.
WARNING: We recommend that your liquid propane
cylinder be fi lled at an authorized liquid propane
gas dealer by a qualifi ed attendant, who fi lls the
tank by weight.
IMPROPER FILLING IS DANGEROUS.
Tell your liquid propane dealer that this is a new liquid
propane cylinder. The air must be removed from a new
liquid propane cylinder before the initial fi lling. Your liquid
propane cylinder dealer is equipped to do this.
The liquid propane cylinder must be installed, transported
and stored in an upright position, and should not be
dropped or handled roughly.
Never store or transport the liquid propane cylinder where
temperatures can reach 125° Fahrenheit (too hot to hold
by hand – for example: do not leave the liquid propane
cylinder in a car on a hot day).
For full instructions on safe handling of liquid propane
cylinders, see Section “Operating”.

supply system designed for vapor withdrawal.
WARNING: Only use this grill outdoors in a well-
ventilated area. Do not use in a garage, building,
breezeway or any other enclosed area.
The LP cylinder supplied with your barbecue is
equipped with an OPD (Overfi lling Prevention Device)
and a QCC1 or Type 1 (CGA810) cylinder connection.
The cylinder connection is compatible with the
barbecue connection.
This is a secondary device to prevent the overfi lling of your
LP cylinder. The proper fi lling methods for the fi lling of your
cylinder are by weight or volume, as described in NFPA 58.
Please make sure your fi lling station fi lls your LP cylinder by
weight or volume. Ask your fi lling station to read purging and
fi lling instructions on the LP cylinder before attempting to fi ll.
WARNING: Do not exchange the LP tank provided
with your barbecue, unless the exchange LP tank is
equipped with an OPD. Otherwise you will lose the OPD
(Overfi lling Prevention Device) feature. If there is not an
LP tank available for exchange equipped with an OPD,
we recommend that you have your LP tank fi lled at an
authorized LP gas dealer by a qualifi ed attendant.
