from water and off the ground. Arrange the cord so that it will not
drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on
by children or tripped over unintentionally.
Never clean any electrical product with water or cleaning fluids.
Store electrical products indoors and out of reach of children
when not in use. DO NOT allow cord to touch any hot surfaces
which could melt insulation.
WARNING
Electrical Grounding instructions: An appliance
equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug is for
your protection against shock hazard and must be
plugged directly into a properly grounded three-prong
receptacle. DO NOT remove grounding prong from a
three-prong plug.
If the appliance is for connection to other than an L.P. cylinder
(consult the Assembly Instructions) the gas connections must be
made by a qualified installer or a licensed plumber. The gas
supply line must not be installed by the consumer.
The maximum inlet supply pressure is 13.0 inches w.c. for
propane gas. The specified supply pressure is 11.0 inches w.c. for
propane gas.
THE PIPING SYSTEM MUST BE INSTALLED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH NATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE IN THE USA, INCLUDING:
1. The appliance and its individual shut-off valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess
of 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).
2. The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping
system by closing its individual manual shut-off valve during
any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).
CAUTION
Liquefied Petroleum gas (abbreviated L.P. gas or propane), is
highly flammable. It becomes liquid when stored under high
pressure inside a cylinder and vaporizes when released. L.P. gas
is heavier than air and tends to collect in low areas. It is important
that there are no leaking connections on your gas grill that could
cause a fire or explosion (see the section titled “LEAK TESTING”).
Portable LP gas grills require a fuel delivery system which is
comprised of a valve [A], a hose [B], a regulator [C] with vent hole
[G], an L.P. gas supply cylinder [D], a Type 1 coupling nut [E] and
a Type 1 cylinder valve [F], (Fig. 1). Illustration in (Fig. 1) is for
description purposes only. The valve assembly for this grill is of a
different configuration.

WARNING
Handle a full cylinder with care. Gas is under high pressure.
DANGER
• NEVER store a spare L.P. gas supply cylinder under the grill
body or inside the grill enclosure or in the vicinity of any heat
producing appliance (Fig. 3).
• NEVER fill the cylinder beyond 80% full.
Failure to follow this information exactly could result in an
explosion and/or fire causing death or serious injury.
• When using cylinder exchange: If your grill is equipped with a
Type 1 cylinder, be sure the exchanged cylinder is a Type 1
cylinder, as a 510 POL cylinder will not fit Type 1 regulator.
• This tank is easily filled with a standard CGA 510 POL filling
connection (Fig. 4).
• New cylinders must be purged before filling. Tell your L.P. Gas
dealer if your cylinder is new and has not been previously filled.
The L.P. Gas cylinder has a Type 1 cylinder valve with a backcheck module in its outlet which will not permit gas to flow until
an evacuation device is installed. To purge the L.P. Gas cylinder,
the back-check module must be opened with an evacuation
device.
Take these instructions to the L.P. gas dealer.
DANGER
Purging and filling of L.P. Gas cylinders must be performed
by personnel who have been thoroughly trained in accepted
L.P. Gas industry procedures. Failure to follow this instruction
may result in explosion, fire, serious personal injury, or
death.
A. Hose end valve with a bleed port (Fig. 4):
Purging can be accomplished using a hose end valve
containing a bleed port which also allows for evacuation without
the use of an adapter.
B. Hose end valve without a bleed port:
When a hose end valve does not have a bleed port, a separate
device must be used for evacuation.
C. Purging using a Type 1 connection (Fig. 5):
L.P. Gas cylinder evacuation can be accomplished during each
purging by using a Type 1 connection. The Type 1 valve outlet
has an external 1 5/16" ACME right-hand thread which will
accept this connection.
TYPE 1
CAUTION
After purging or filling an L.P. Gas cylinder, DO NOT insert a
POL plug into the valve outlet. Insertion of the plug will
prevent the back-check from closing. Use ONLY the provided
cap and strap attached to the outlet. Close the cylinder valve
knob before returning the cylinder to the customer.
For proper purging procedures refer to:
In the US: Safety Bulletin NPGA# 133, “Purging L.P. Gas
Cylinders”, and Safety Bulletin NPGA #130, “Recommended
Procedures for Filling Cylinders”.
