• 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.
• Keep LP tank at a minimum distance of 24” (inches) away
from appliance at all times.

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,

goods. Transport Canada (TC). See LP cylinder collar for
marking.
•LP cylinder valve must have:
•Type 1 outlet compatible with

LP (Liquefied Petroleum Gas)
•LP gas is nontoxic, odorless and colorless when produced. For
Your Safety, LP gas has been given an odor (similar to rotten
cabbage) so that it can be smelled.
•LP gas is highly flammable and may ignite unexpectedly when
mixed with air.
LP Cylinder Filling
•Use only licensed and experienced dealers.
•LP dealer must purge new cylinder before filling.
•Dealer should NEVER fill LP cylinder more than 80% of LP
cylinder volume. Volume of propane in cylinder will vary by
temperature.
•A frosty regulator indicates gas overfill. Immediately close LP
cylinder valve and call local LP gas dealer for assistance.
•Do not release liquid propane (LP) gas into the atmosphere.
This is a hazardous practice.
•To remove gas from LP cylinder, contact an LP dealer or call a
local fire department for assistance. Check the telephone
directory under “Gas Companies” for nearest certified LP
dealers.
LP Cylinder Exchange
Connecting Regulator to the LP Cylinder
•Many retailers that sell grills offer you the option of replacing
your empty LP cylinder through an exchange service. Use only
those reputable exchange companies that inspect, precision fill,
test and certify their cylinders. Exchange your cylinder only
for an OPD safety feature-equipped cylinder as described
in the "LP Cylinder" section of this manual.
•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 grill.
•Place dust cap on cylinder valve outlet whenever the cylinder is
not in use. Only install the type of dust cap on the cylinder valve
outlet that is provided with the cylinder valve. Other types of caps
or plugs may result in leakage of propane.
LP Cylinder Leak Test

•Leak test must be repeated each time LP cylinder is exchanged
or refilled.
•Do not smoke during leak test.
•Do not use an open flame to check for gas leaks.
•Grill must be leak tested outdoors in a well-ventilated area,
away from ignition sources such as gas fired or electrical
appliances. During leak test, keep grill away from open flames
or sparks.
•Use a clean paintbrush and a 50/50 mild soap and water
solution.

1. Turn control knob to OFF.
Straight
Hold coupling nut and regulator
as shown for proper connection
to LP cylinder valve.
6. Turn the coupling nut clockwise and tighten to a full stop. The
regulator will seal on the back-check feature in the LP cylinder
valve, resulting in some resistance. An additional one-half to
three-quarters turn is required to complete the
connection. Tighten by hand only – do not use tools.
NOTE:
If you cannot complete the connection, disconnect regulator and
repeat steps 5 and 6. If you are still unable to complete the
connection, do not use this regulator!
2. Be sure regulator is tightly connected to LP cylinder.
3. Completely open LP cylinder valve by turning hand wheel
counterclockwise. If you hear a rushing sound, turn gas off
immediately. There is a major leak at the connection. Correct
before proceeding.
4. Brush soapy solution onto areas circled below.
DANGER
• Do not insert any tool or foreign object into the valve
outlet or safety relief valve. You may damage the valve
and cause a leak. Leaking propane may result in
explosion, fire, severe personal injury, or death.
