Z223.1/NFPA 54), and Natural Gas and Propane Storage and Handling Installation Code (CSA-B149.1).

This appliance and its individual shutoff valves must be disconnected from the gas-supply piping system when testing the system at pressures in excess of ½ psig.
This appliance must be isolated from the gas-supply piping system by closing its dedicated manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas-supply
system at pressures up to and including ½ psig.

This grill is designed for outdoor use only. DO NOT use this grill inside a building, garage, or enclosed area (see paragraph below). DO NOT use this grill
