2) Make sure all burner control knobs are turned to OFF. (Push control knob down and
turn clockwise to ensure that it is in the OFF position.)
WARNING: The burner control knobs must be in the OFF
position before turning on the liquid propane cylinder tank

this should occur, turn off the LP cylinder valve and burner

a small amount of gas is still fl owing to the burners. After
turning OFF the cylinder valve, wait at least 5 minutes for the
gas to clear before attempting to light the barbecue. Failure
to do so may result in an explosive fl ame-up, which can
cause serious bodily injury or death.

the cylinder is not in use. Only install the type of dust cap
on the cylinder valve outlet that is provided with the cylinder
valve. Other types of caps or plugs may result in leakage of
propane.
