9.
Place dust cap on cylinder valve outlet whenever the cylinder is not in use. Install only 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.
DANGER
To prevent fire or explosion hazard when testing for a leak:
1.
Always perform the "leak test" as below 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.
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. Proceed to step 6.
6.
Disconnect the regulator from the tank and reconnect. Make sure the connection is 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
WARNING:
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 and clog the burner/venturi tube at the orifice. A clogged burner tube can lead to a fire
beneath the appliance.
1. Open lid while lighting burners.
2. Make sure all control knobs are in the "OFF" position.
3. Turn on gas source or cylinder valve.
4.
Ignite only the burners you wish to use. Push and turn the knob to "HIGH" then press the igniter button immediately. The
burner should light. If the burner does not light, repeat pressing the lighter button 2 or 3 times.
5. If ignition does NOT occur in 5 seconds, turn the burner controls to OFF, wait 5 minutes, and repeat the lighting procedure.
6. To ignite remaining burners, repeat Steps 4 and 5 for each burner.
7. Adjust valve knob(s) to desired cooking temperature.
Using the Lighting Stick to Light the Main Burners
1. Insert a match into the end of lighting stick. Light the match.
2. Once lit, put the lighting stick through the hole on the grill body to reach the burner
ports (See diagram to right.)
