USE AND CARE
DANGER
• NEVER store a spare LP cylinder under or near the
appliance or in an enclosed area.
• Never fill a cylinder beyond 80% full.
• An over filled or improperly stored cylinder is a hazard
due to possible gas release from the safety relief valve.
This could cause an intense fire with risk of property
damage, serious injury or death.
• If you see, smell or hear gas escaping, immediately get
away from the LP cylinder/appliance and call your fire
department.
LP Cylinder Removal, Transport and Storage
• Turn OFF the control knob and LP cylinder valve. Turn coupling
nut counterclockwise by hand only - do not use tools to
disconnect. Install safety cap onto LP cylinder valve. Always
use cap and strap supplied with valve. Failure to use safety
cap as directed may result in serious personal injury
and/or property damage.
LP Cylinder
•The LP cylinder used with your grill must
meet the following requirements:
• Use LP cylinders only with these required measurements: 12"
(30.5cm) (diameter) x 18" (45.7 cm) (tall) with 20 lb. (9 kg.)
capacity maximum.
• LP cylinders must be constructed and marked in accordance
with specifications for LP cylinders of the U.S. Department of
Transportation (DOT) or for Canada, CAN/CSA-B339,

•Always keep new and exchanged LP cylinders in upright
position during use, transit or storage.
• Leak test new and exchanged LP cylinders
BEFORE connecting to the appliance.
