If Converting to LP Gas
WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Use a new CSA International approved “outdoor”
gas supply line.
Securely tighten all gas connections.
If connected to LP, have a qualified person make sure
gas pressure does not exceed 11” (28 cm) water
column.
Examples of a qualified person include:
licensed heating personnel,
authorized gas company personnel, and
authorized service personnel.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
IMPORTANT: A 20 lb LP gas fuel tank must be purchased
separately.
IMPORTANT: The gas pressure regulator/hose assembly
supplied with the conversion kit must be used. Replacement gas
pressure regulator/hose assembly specific to your model, is
available from your outdoor grill dealer.
To Install the 20 lb LP Gas Fuel Tank:
1. Install the 20 lb LP gas fuel tank into the compartment below
the grill.
2. Screw the gas pressure regulator/hose assembly to the
20 lb LP gas fuel tank as shown.

3. Turn on the gas supply. Wait a few minutes for gas to move
through the gas line.
4. Test all connections by brushing on an approved
noncorrosive leak-detection solution. Bubbles will show a
leak. Correct any leak found.
5. Go to “Check and Adjust the Burners” section.
Check and Adjust the Burners
The burners are tested and factory-set for most efficient
operation. However, variations in gas supply and other conditions
may make minor adjustments to air shutter or low flame setting
necessary.
It is recommended that a qualified person make burner
adjustments.
NOTE: The rotisserie burner cannot be adjusted.
Checking and adjusting the grill burner flames requires removing
the grate and sear plates.
Burner Flame Characteristics
The flames of the grill burners and side burners (on some models)
should be blue and stable with no excessive noise or lifting (LP
gas flames will have a slightly yellow tip). A yellow flame indicates
not enough air. If flame is noisy or lifts away from the burner, there
is too much air. Some yellow tips on flames when the burner is
set to HI setting are acceptable as long as no carbon or soot
deposits appear.
Check that burners are not blocked by dirt, debris, insect nests,
etc. and clean as necessary. If they are clean, adjust air shutters
as needed.
IMPORTANT: Before adjusting air shutters, let burners cool
completely.
To Adjust:
1. Light grill using information in the “Outdoor Grill Use” section.
2. Observe flame to determine which burners need adjustment
and how the flame is acting.
3. Turn off the valve and wait until grill and burners cool
completely.
4. Remove grill grates and sear plates.
