Connecting gas cylinder:
The propane gas supply cylinder to be used must be constructed and marked in accordance with the Specifications for propane gas Cylinders of the
U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT). Only cylinders with a listed overfilling prevention device (OPD) and marked "propane" may be used.
Cylinders with an OPD will have valve handles with three "lobes" (prongs). Only use 20-pound cylinders equipped with a cylinder connection device
compatible with the connection for outdoor cooking appliances. The cylinder must include a collar to protect the cylinder valve. The gas cylinder should
not be dropped or handled roughly! If the appliance is not in use, the gas cylinder must be disconnected. Storage of an appliance indoors is permissible
ONLY if the cylinder is disconnected and removed from the appliance. 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. Your cylinder must never be stored where temperatures can reach over 125°F! Before
connection, be sure that there is no debris caught in the head of the gas cylinder, head of the regulator valve or in the head of the burner and burner
ports. Connect regulator valve and hand-tighten firmly. Disconnect the propane cylinder from the regulator valve when the grill is not in use. DO NOT
obstruct the flow of combustion air and ventilation air to the grill. The propane cylinder must be arranged for vapor withdrawal and equipped with a listed
overfilling prevention device.
DANGER
Never store a spare propane cylinder under or near this grill.
A fire causing death or serious injury may occur if the above is not followed exactly.
Check for leaks. Make sure the regulator valve is securely fastened to the burner and the cylinder.
Make 2-3 oz. (0-90ml) of leak solution by mixing one part liquid dishwashing soap with three parts water.
Make sure control knobs are off.
Spoon several drops of solution at the tank valve to regulator connection.
Inspect the solution at the connection, looking for bubbles. If NO bubbles appear, the connection is secure.
If bubbles appear, you have a leak, recheck as :
Disconnect regulator from tank and reconnect, making sure the connection is secure.
Retest with solution. If you continue to see bubbles, replace the cylinder.
Danger: Failure to open lid while igniting the barbecue's burners or not waiting 5 minutes to allow the gas to clear if the barbecue does not
light, may result in an explosive flame-up which can cause serious bodily injury or death.
1.
Open lid during lighting burners.
Attempting to light the burner with the lid closed may cause an explosion! Make sure there are no obstructions of airflow to the gas unit. Spiders
and insects can nest within 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.
Ignite only the burners you desire to use, using the same method for each:
Push in desired burner valve knob fully and rotate slowly about 1/4 turn counter-clockwise
until a click is heard and this will light the burner. If the burner does not light, immediately return
the valve knob to OFF, wait five minutes for the gas to clear and repeat the procedure.
After burner ignites, repeat the same procedure with any other burner desired.
5.
Adjust valve knob(s) to desired cooking setting.
