LPCylinder Installation - Some Models
,
For units that will use a LP cylinder, start by making
sure the tank shut-off valve is completely closed.
,
Place the tank into the final position within the cabinet
or cart.
WARNING
• The largest recommended LP cylinder size for the
rollout tank shelf on the cart is five gallons. A five
gallon portable liquid propane cylinder should be
approximately 12 inches (305mm) in diameter and
18 inches (457mm) high,. It must be constructed and
marked in accordance with the specification for liquid
propane (LP) gas cylinders of the U.S. Department
of Transportation (DOT) and designed for use with a
5LP-A quick disconnect systems only.
• Cylinders must be stored outdoors in a well vented
area out of the reach of children.
• On installations with a LP cylinder, when storing the
appliance indoors, you must disconnect and store the
LP cylinder outdoors.
• On models OB52 and OBS52 equipped for use with
a LP tank, use only a two stage regulator on the gas
supply line.
• For LP cylinder installations, the LP gas cylinder must
have its own certified high-pressure regulator (Either
Type I or No. 600 Connection).
• A dented or rusty LP tank may be hazardous and
should be checked by your LP supplier.
• Never use a cylinder with a damaged shut-off valve.
• Do not change the regulator/hose assembly with a
standard 510 POL tank/valve assembly.
• The cylinder must be provided with a shut-off valve
terminating in a liquid propane (LP) gas supply cylin-
der valve outlet specified, as applicable, for connec-
tion No. 5LP-A.
• The cylinder supply system must be arranged for
vapor withdrawal and provided with a listed overfilling
prevention device.

Power Connection - Cart Models
,
If the appliance is installed on a cart, connect a three-
prong extension cord (minimum 5 Amp. capacity)
designed for outdoor use to the power input on the
back of the cart. Connect the other end of the exten-
sion cord to a grounded, three-prong, electrical outlet
that meets local code for use with outdoor appliances.
,
With the tank shelf open, connect the power cord from
the outdoor grill and the warming oven (if equipped with
one) to the electrical outlet on the back panel inside the
cart.

cal outlet on the back side of the cart.
Electrical Outlet with Ground Fault Interrupter
Power Connection - Cabinet Installations
• Connect the appliance(s) to an electrical outlet
that meets the specifications in the Planning the
Installation section.
• The rotisserie motor should be plugged into the same
outlet or an alternate 120 Vac outlet on the same circuit
as the appliance.
Verifying Proper Operation
6. If the second or third attempt to ignite the burner is
not successful then turn all burner controls to the OFF
position.
,
If the grill or cooktop fails to operate properly, make
sure that power to the electrical outlet and gas supply
are turned on and that all installation steps have been
carefully followed. Check also for a tripped ground
fault interrupter on the electrical outlet. Push in on the
RESET button.
NOTE: If using an extension cord, the igniters will
not spark properly if the cord is not supplying a solid
ground.
If the grill still will not light, close the gas shut-off valve. Do
not attempt to repair the appliance yourself. Contact Dacor
Distinctive Service at (877) 337-3226. Have the model and
