DANGER:
To prevent fire or explosion hazard when testing for a leak:
1.
Always perform the "leak test" before lighting the grill and each time the cylinder is connected for use.
2.
Do not smoke or allow other sources of ignition in the area while conducting a leak test.
3.
Conduct the leak test outdoors in a well-ventilated area.
4.
Do not use matches, lighters or a flame to check for leaks.
5.
Do not use grill until all leaks have been stopped. If you are unable to stop a leak, disconnect the propane supply, call
for gas appliance service or your local propane gas supplier.
Checking for Leaks
1.
Make 2-3 oz. of leak solution by mixing one part liquid dishwashing soap with three parts water.
2.
Make sure control knobs are in the "OFF" position.
3.
Spray some solution on the tank valve up to the regulator connection.
(See diagram to right.)
4.
Inspect the solution at the connections for bubbles. If no bubbles appear, the connection
is secure.
5.
If bubbles appear, you have a leak. Go to step 6.
6.
Disconnect the regulator from the tank and reconnect. Make sure the connection is tight and secured.
7.
Retest with solution.
8.
If you continue to see bubbles, replace the cylinder.
DANGER:
Failure to open lid while igniting the grill's burners or not waiting five minutes to allow gas to clear if the grill does not
light, may result in an explosion, which could cause serious bodily injury or death.
WARNING:
Never stand with your head directly over the grill when preparing to light the main burners, to prevent possible bodily
injury.
Lighting Main Burner
1. Open lid while lighting burners.
WARNING:
an explosion. Make sure there are no obstructions of airflow to the gas unit. Spiders
and insects can nest and clog the burner/venturi tube at the orifice. A clogged burner
tube can lead to a fire beneath the appliance.
2. All valves must be in the "OFF" position.
3. Open cylinder valve.
4. To ignite, push and turn desired knob slowly about1/4 turn counter clockwise until a click
is heard. (see diagram to right).The "click" is the igniter being activated. If the burner does
not light, repeat 2 or 3 times. If ignition does NOT occur in 5 second turn the burner controls
to OFF, wait 5 minutes, and repeat the lighting procedure.
5. Adjust valve knob(s) to desired cooking temperature.
Using the Lighting Stick to Light the Main Burners
1. Light a match by inserting it into the end of a lighting stick.
2. Once lit, place the flame through the hole on cooking grid to reach the burner ports.
(see diagram to right).
3. Press the valve knob and rotate it counter clockwise to the ''HIGH'' position. The
burner should light immediately.
4. Adjust burners to the desire cooking temperature.
