Question: Can I convert my Kenmore gas grill from
one fuel type to another?
Answer: Your Kenmore gas grill is manufactured to
exact specifications and is approved bythe Canadian
Standards Association (CSA). For your own safety,
conversion kits are not available and any attempt to
convert your grill from one gas type to another will void
your product warranty.
Question: Why doesn't the hose and regulator assem-
bly supplied with my new Kenmore gdll fit the older LP
gas tank I've used for years?
Answer: The U.S. Government regulates gas appliances
and LP gas tanks. Whenever new regulations are passed
the LP gas tank fittings are altered. If your tank does not
fit the hose and regulator supplied with your new gdll, the
tank is outdated and must be replaced.
Question: What can cause grill parts to rust and what
affect does it have on the grill matedals.
Answer: Rusting is a natural oxidation process and may
appear on cast-iron and steel parts. Rust will not affect
the short term performance of your gall or affect the taste
of your foods.
Stainless steel grill parts will not rust. However, weather-
ing and extreme heat can cause stainless steel Lid
surfaces to turn tan color. This is discoloration, not rust.
Question: How can I minimize the Ask of rust or
stainless steel discoloration?
Answer: To protect against the natural rusting process,
the GAll Bowl and Burners have a porcelain finish.
However, dropping, scraping or scratching these items
will da'nage the porcelain finish and allow rusting. We
recommend you "season" these items before and after
each use. Consistent seasoning will help deter rusting
and will create an easy to clean cooking surface.
Weathering and extreme heat can cause exterior
stainless steel surfaces to turn tan in color - which is
not to be confused with rust. Machine oils used in the
manufactudng process of stainless steel can also
cause this tanning color. After removing the protective
PVC film from your Grill Lid use a Stainless Steel
Cleaner to polish the inside and outside of your grill
Lid. Never use abrasive cleaners or scrubbers. Follow
the easy "Cleaning Extedor Stainless Steel Surfaces"
procedures found in this Owner's Manual.
Question: Sometimes my grill does not light when I
push the Ignition Button. Why?
Answer:
Refer to the Lighting Instructions in this
Owner's Manual. Also check these common causes:
• Ignition AA battery may need replacing.
• Ignition wires may be loose. Remove the AA battery,
inspect the Ignitor Junction Box found behind the
Control Panel, and connect any loose wires.
Question: What is the best way to protect my new
Kenmore gas grill from the weather?
Answer: A good quality gall cover should be used to
protect your grill when not in use. Sears offers a cover
that is made to fit this particular grill model. Also, follow
the cleaning and maintenance instructions in this
Owner's Manual on a timely basis, and your new grill will
give you years of enjoyment.
Question:
Where can I buy replacement parts?
Answer:
For the repair or replacement parts you need
call 6 am - 11 pm CST, 7 days a week 1-800-366-PART
(1-800-366-7278). Use only Sears authorized parts.
The use of any part that is not Sears authorized can be
dangerous and will also void your product warranty. You
will need your model number and serial number to
order parts.
Question: Are the sedat and model numbers of my gall
listed somewhere for future reference?
Answer: This information is listed on a silver label found
on the right side of your Grill Head under the Side Shelf.
Question: Sometimes I heara humming sound
coming from my regulator. What causes this?
Answer: The humming noise is actually the gas
flowing through the regulator. A low volume of noise is
perfectly normal and will not interfere with the opera-
tions of the grill. If humming noise is loud and exces-
sive you may need to purge air from the gas line or
reset the regulator excess gas flow device. Note: This
purging procedure should be done everytime a new LP
gas tank is connected to your grill. For help with this
procedure refer to page 17, step 4, or call the
Customer Service Helpline at the number shown
below.
Question: Why doesn't the Fuel Gauge Display show
the tank level after "CHECK" button pressing?
Answer: Make sure the Wire Plug "A" from Fuel Gauge
Display is connected with the Wire Plug "B" from rear of
Tank Pull-Out Tray. Take out the tank from Tank Pull-
Out Tray and follow the Calibration Procedure in page
13. After calibration, put the tank back onto Tank Pull-
Out Tray and press the "CHECK" button for tank level
measurement.
Another reason might be that 20 seconds have not
elapsed from the first time that you pressed "Check"
and therefore your second pressing of "Check" has manu-
ally turned the fuel gauge to "off". Simply repress "Check"
to manually turn the fuel gauge to "on".
