whenever the cylinder is not in use.
Only install the type of dust cap on
cylinder valve outlet that is provided
with the cylinder valve. Other types of
caps or plugs may result in leakage of
propane.
To prevent fire or explosion hazard when testing for a leak
1. Always perform the "leak test" as described below before lighting the grill or
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 any and all leaks are corrected. If you are unable to
stop a leak, disconnect the propane supply. Call a gas appliance service
shop or your local propane gas supplier.
To Perform a Leak Test
Make 2-3 oz. (0-90ml.) of leak solution by mixing one part liquid dishwashing
soap with three parts water in a spray bottle.
Spray solution on 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.
Check the regulator connection as follows:
Disconnect regulator from the tank and reconnect, making sure the connection
is secure. Retest with solution. If you continue to see bubbles, replace the
cylinder.
Make sure control knobs are off.
Before starting the grill, check for
leaks. Make sure the regulator valve is
securely fastened to the valve
assembly tube and the cylinder.
Lighting Your Grill
Before cooking on this grill for the first time, operate the grill for about 15
minutes with the lid closed and the gas turned on "high." This will "heat clean"
the internal parts and dissipate odor from the manufacturing processes and
painted finish.
Failure to open lid while igniting the grill or not waiting 5 minutes to allow the
gas to clear if the grill does not light may result in an explosive flare-up which
can cause serious bodily injury or death.
Main burners
1. Read ALL instructions before lighting.
2. Open lid before lighting.
3. Open the LP-Gas Cylinder Valve.
4. Push in main burner control knob fully and rotate slowly about 1/4 turn
counterclockwise until a click is heard.
5. If ignition does not occur, repeat step 5 in rapid succession for no more than
5 seconds or until burner ignites. If ignition still does not occur, immediately
turn the burner control(s) off, wait 5 minutes for the gas to clear and repeat
the lighting procedure.
6. Follow same steps to light left and right main burners.
After lighting, observe the burner flame and make sure all burner ports are lit.
If burner flame goes out during operation, immediately turn the gas "off" on the
grill and at the gas cylinder and open lid to let the gas clear for about 5 minutes
before re-lighting. Clean your grill aftereach use, DO NOT use abrasive or
flammable cleaners, as it will damage the parts of this product and may start a
fire.
Side burner
1. Read ALL instructions before lighting.
2. Open lid during lighting. Lid must be open when burner is on.
