Important LP Tank Safety Information
A liquid propane cylinder should never be overfilled beyond the cylinder filling capacity. Overfilling
may create a dangerous condition.
Overfilled tanks can build up excess pressure. The standard safety device on tanks is the safety relief
valve. This valve vents propane gas vapors to relieve excess pressure. These vapors are combustible
and can be ignited.
To avoid risk of fire or explosion, take the following safety precautions:
Never replace the liquid propane regulator
or hose with a different type than the model
supplied.
Never use a dented or rusty LP tank.
Never connect the grill to anything other than the
fuel source indicated on the serial plate. Factory
conversion kits are available for switching fuel
sources. Contact Kalamazoo Outdoor Gourmet
or an authorized dealer for details. Conversion
kit installation must be done by a qualified
technician.
The LP-gas cylinder must include a collar to
protect the cylinder valve from damage.
Ensure proper ventilation of the cylinder. The
cylinder supply system must be arranged for
vapor withdrawal.
The LP-gas supply cylinder to be used must be
constructed and marked in accordance with
the specifications for LP-gas cylinders, U.S.
Department of Transportation (DOT) or the
standard for Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for
the Transportation of Dangerous Goods, CAN/
CSA-B339.
DANGER:
Do not route the gas supply hose or locate
a propane cylinder in a way that may create
a tripping hazard. Tripping over, or getting
caught on, a gas supply hose may tip the grill
over or damage the hose, creating serious
risk of injury and fire.
6
When the grill is not in use, the gas must be
turned off at the supply cylinder.
The grill may be stored indoors, but only if the
cylinder is disconnected and removed from the
grill. An LP cylinder MUST NEVER BE STORED
INDOORS.
Cylinders must be stored outdoors out of the
reach of children and must not be stored in a
building, garage or any other enclosed area.
The pressure regulator and hose assembly
supplied with the grill must be used. Replacement
pressure regulators and hose assemblies must
be the type specified by Kalamazoo Outdoor
Gourmet. For replacement parts, contact
Kalamazoo Outdoor Gourmet customer service at
