1. Make gas connections.
A combination of pipe fittings must be
used to connect the grill to the existing
gas line.
• If local codes permit, use an outdoor
flexible stainless steel tubing gas
connector, design-certified by CSA
International, to connect the grill to the
rigid gas supply line. A 5/8" diameter
line is recommended. Using a wrench
to tighten, connect the gas supply to
the grill.
Use pipe-joint compound on all non-
flared male threads. Do not kink or
damage the flexible connector when
moving the grill.
• Pipe-joint compounds suitable for use
with Natural gas must be used. Do not
use TEFLON®† tape.
