SIDE BURNER ACCESSORY CARE & USE/INSTALLATION

LP GAS
Accessories set up for LP gas come equipped with an LP
hose/ regulator assembly for connection to a standard 20 lb.
LP cylinder. (Type 1).
All fittings necessary to attach the assembly to the accessory
are included.
Permanently plumbed LP connections, such as those in line
with a bulk cylinder, require a 4/11 regulator.
When using the 4/11 regulator you must ensure that it is
set for the proper fuel type. This is done by removing the
regulator cap and gasket and looking at the bottom of the
plunger to see what fuel type is visible. This is the regulator
fuel setting. NAT is for natural gas and LP is for propane
gas. The LP setting can be further identified by the large
diameter disk on the bottom of the plunger. To change from
one gas to the other simply push the plunger to the side
to snap it out of the cap, turn the plunger so it reads the
desired gas type on the bottom, and push the plunger until
it snaps back into place in the cap then replace the cap into
the regulator.
Never connect an unregulated gas line to the grill.
When exchanging your cylinder for a refill, exchange only
for a Type 1 20lb cylinder with an over-fill protection device.
Never use a cylinder with a damaged valve.
A dented or rusty LP cylinder may be hazardous and should
be avoided. If in doubt, have it checked by your LP supplier.
Always check for leaks after every LP cylinder change. (See
INDEX: “Leak Testing” for further details.)
Always shut off the LP-gas supply at the cylinder when the
accessory is not in use.
Cylinders must be stored outdoors in a well-ventilated
area out of the reach of children. If your accessory is stored
indoors, the LP cylinder must be stored outside.
LP CONNECTIONS
Make sure the LP cylinder valve is fully closed. It is possible
for the valve to be open without releasing gas but, as soon
as you start connecting the regulator, gas will leak from the
connection.
Insert the regulator inlet into the cylinder valve and turn the
black coupler clockwise until the coupler is hand tight. Do not
over-tighten this connection.
To disconnect the coupler, first make sure the main cylinder
valve is turned off. Grasp the coupler and turn counter
clockwise. Always leak-test the connection after refilling or
exchanging LP cylinders. (See INDEX: “Leak Testing” for
further details.)
GAS CONVERSION KITS
Gas conversion kits are available from to allow the grill to
operate on either Natural Gas or LPG. These kits should be
installed by a qualified technician.
These kits come with complete installation instructions and
should be read completely and fully understood before
installing the conversion kit.
