WARNING
Failure to comply with these instructions
could result in a fire or explosion
that
could cause serious bodily injury, death,
or property
damage.
Never connect
an unregulated LP gas tank to
your gas grill. The gas regulator
assembly
supplied with your gas grill is adjusted to have
an outlet pressure of 11" water column (W.C.)
for connection
to an LP gas tank.
Only use the regulator
and hose assembly
supplied with your gas grill. Replacement
regulators
and hose assemblies
must be those
specified
by Sears.
Have your LP gas tank filled by a reputable
propane gas dealer and visually
inspected and
re-qualified at each filling.
Never fill the gas tank beyond 80% full.
Have your propane gas dealer check the
release valve after every filling to ensure that it
remains free of defects.
Always keep LP gas tanks in an upright
position.
Do not store (or use) gasoline orother flammable
vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this gas grill.
An LP gas tank that is not connected for use must
not be stored in the vicinity of this or any other gas
grill.
Do not subject the LP gas tank to excessive heat.
Never store an LP gas tank indoors. If you
store your gas gdll in the garage or other indoor
location, always disconnect
the LP gas tank
first and store it safely outside.
LP gas tanks must be stored outdoors
in a
well-ventilated
area. Disconnected
LP gas tanks
must not be stored in a building,
garage or
any other enclosed area.
When
your gas grill is not in use the gas
must be turned off at the LP gas tank.
The regulator
and hose assembly must be
inspected before each use of the grill. If there
is excessive
abrasion or wear or if the hose is
cut, it must be replaced
prior to the grill being
used again.
Keep the gas regulator
hose away from
hot grill surfaces and dripping grease.
Avoid unnecessary
twisting of hose. Visually
inspect hose prior to each use for cuts,
cracks, excessive
wear or other damage.
If the hose appears damaged
do not use the
gas grill. Call Sears at 1-8O0-4-MY-HOME
for
a Sears authorized replacement hose.
• Never light your gas grill with the lid closed
or before checking to insure the burner tubes
are fully seated over the gas valve orifices.
• Never allow children to operate your gdll. Do
not allow children to play near your grill
AkWARNING
A strong gas smell, or the hissing sound of
gas indicates
a serious problem
with your
gas grill or the LP gas tank. Failure to
immediately
follow the steps listed below
could result in a fire or explosion
that could
cause serious bodily injury, death, or
prop-
erty damage.
• Shut off gas supply to the gas grill.
• Turn the control knobs to OFF position.
• Put out any flame with a fire extinguisher.
• Open grill lid.
• Get away from the LP gas tank.
• Do not try to fix the problem
yourself.
• If odor continues
or you have a fire you
cannot extinquish,
call your fire department.
Do not call near the LP gas tank because
your telephone
is an electrical
device
and
could create a spark resulting
in fire and/or
explosion.

CAUTION:
Spiders and small insects occa-
sionally
spin webs or make nests in the
grill burner tubes during transit and ware-
housing. These webs can lead to a gas flow
obstruction which could result in a fire in
and around the burner tubes, This type of
fire is known as a "FLASH-BACK" and can
cause serious damage to your grill and
create an unsafe operating condition for the
user.
Although
an obstructed burner tube is not
the only cause of "FLASH-BACK",
it is the
most common cause.
To reduce the chance of "FLASH-BACK",
you must clean the burner tubes before
assembling
your gdll, and at least once a
month in late summer
or early fall when
spiders are most active. Also perform this
burner tube cleaning procedure
if your grill
has not been used for an extended
period
of time.
