/ XWARNING
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
property 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 extinguish,
call your fire department.
Do not calt near the LP gas tank because
your telephone
is an electrical
device and
could create a spark resulting
in fire and/or
explosion.
NOTE: The normal flow of gas through
the
regulator and hose assembly
can create a
humming noise. A low volume of noise is
perfectly normal and will not interfere with
operation
of the grill. If humming
noise is
loud and excessive
you may need to purge
air from the gas line or reset the regulator
excess gas flow device. This purging proce-
dure should be done every time a new LP
gas tank is connected
to your grill. For help
with this procedure
refer to page 15, step 4,
or catl the Customer
Service Helpline for
assistance.

Checking
For LP Gas Leaks
Never test for leaks with a flame. Prior to first
use, at the beginning of each season, or every
time your LP gas tank is changed, you must
check for gas leaks. Follow these four steps:
1. Make a soap solution by mixing one part
liquid detergent and one part water.
2. Turn the grill Control Knobs to the full OFF
position, then turn the gas ON at source.
3. Apply the soap solution to all gas connec-
tions. If bubbles appear in the soap solution
the connections
are not properly sealed.
Check each fitting and tighten or repair as
necessary.
4. If you have a gas leak that you cannot
repair, turn off the gas at the source,
discon-
nect fuel line from your grill and call
1-800-4-MY-HOME ® or your gas supplier for
repair assistance.
