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.
•
Always use a protective cylinder cap when grill is not connected to cylinder.
•
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
c l o c k w i s e .
2 . Place the cylinder into the tank holder in the bottom
of cabinet.
3 . Orient the cylinder such that the valve opening faces the
s i d e b u r n e r, and so that the hose i s n o t kinked or damaged.
4 . Fully tighten the cylinder clamp underneath tank holder 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.
N O T E : 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.
