Propane Cylinder Specifications
WARNING!
If these instructions are not followed exactly, a fire causing death or serious injury
may occur.
WARNING!
Do not store a spare propane cylinder on the shelf beneath the barbecue.
If the gas grill is being supplied with propane from a portable cylinder, a regulator specified by the
manufacturer must be used. The regulator must supply a pressure of 11 inches water column (0.39 PSI) to
the gas grill and have a QCC1 type fitting. Cylinders to be used with this unit must be supplied with a QCC1
cylinder valve. A QCC1 cylinder has a positive seating connection, which will not allow gas flow until a
positive seal has been achieved. It is also equipped with an excess flow device. In order to attain full flow
to the grill, the valves must be in the off position when the cylinder valve is turned on.
A dented or rusty cylinder may be hazardous and should be checked by your propane supplier. Never use a
cylinder with a damaged valve. Use only a propane supply cylinder constructed and marked in accordance
with the specifications for LP-gas cylinders of the National Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA-b339, Cylinders,
Spheres and Tubes for Transportation of Dangerous Goods; and Commission, as applicable or the
Specifications for LP-Gas Cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportation (D.O.T.). Cart models have
been designed for use with a 20 lb (9.1 kg) size propane cylinder only (not supplied).
The propane cylinder must be provided with a cylinder connection device compatible with the connection
for outdoor cooking appliances. The propane cylinder must be provided with a shut-off valve terminating
in a propane cylinder valve type QCC1, and a safety relief device having direct communication with the
vapor space of the cylinder. The cylinder supply system must be arranged for vapor withdrawal and the
cylinder shall include a collar to protect the cylinder valve. The cylinder shall incorporate a listed OPD
(overfill protection device). Do not store a spare LP-gas cylinder under or near this appliance. Never fill
the cylinder beyond 80 percent full. If the preceding information is not followed exactly, a fire causing
death or serious injury may occur.

A fire will result if the gas supply hose makes contact with the underside of the grill or
