LP Tank
The LP tank used with your grill must meet the following
requirements:
Use LP tanks only with these required measurements:
12” (30.5cm) (diameter) x 18” (45.7cm) (tall) with 20
lb. (9kg.) capacity maximum.
LP tanks must be constructed and marked in
accordance with specifications for LP tanks of the
U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) or for
Canada, CAN/CSA-B339, tanks, spheres and tubes
for transportation of dangerous goods. Transport
Canada (TC). See LP tank collar for marking.
LP tank valve must have
o Type 1 outlet compatible
with regulator or grill.
o Safety relief valve.
o UL listed Overfill Protection
Device (OPD). This OPD
Safety feature is identified by a unique
triangular hand wheel. Use only LP tanks
equipped with this type of valve.
LP tank must be arranged for vapor withdrawal and
include collar to protect LP tank valve. Always keep
LP tanks in upright position during use, transit, or
storage.
LP tank in upright position for vapor withdrawal
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 Tank Filling
Use only licensed and experienced dealers.
LP dealer must purge new tank before filling.
Dealer should NEVER fill LP tank more than 80% of
LP tank volume. Volume of propane in tank will vary
by temperature.
A frosty regulator indicates gas overfill. Immediately
close LP tank 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 tank, 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 Tank Exchange
If “growing” bubbles appear, do not use or move the
LP tank. Contact an LP gas supplier or your fire
department!
The regulator must enter the
cylinder valve in a straight line.
Center this nipple of the regulator
into the cylinder valve.
The pressure regulator and hose assembly
provided with this gas grill must be used. This
regulator is set for an outlet pressure of 11 inches
water column. Replacement pressure regulators
and hose assemblies must be those specified in
the parts list.
Many retailers that sell grills offer you the option of
replacing your empty LP tank through an exchange
service. Use only those reputable exchange
companies that inspect, precision fill, test and certify
their tanks. Exchange your tank only for an OPD
safety feature-equipped tank as described in the “LP
Tank” section of this manual.
Always keep new and exchanged LP tanks in an
upright position during use, transit or storage.
Leak test new and exchanged LP tanks BEFORE
connecting to the 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 Tank Leak Test
For your safety
A leak test must be repeated each time the LP tank is
exchanged or refilled.
Do not smoke during a leak test.
Do not use an open flame to check for gas leaks.
The grill must be leak tested outdoors in a well-
ventilated area, away from ignition sources such as
gas fired or electrical appliances. During the leak
test, keep the grill away from open flames or sparks.
Use a clean paintbrush and a 50/50 mild soap and
water solution. Brush soapy solution onto areas
indicated by arrows in the figure below. Leaks are
indicated by growing bubbles.
Connecting Regulator To The LP Tank
1. LP tank must be properly secured onto the grill.
(Refer to assembly section.)
2. Turn all control knobs to the OFF position.
3. Turn LP tank OFF by turning the OPD hand wheel
clockwise to a full stop.
4. Remove the protective cap from LP tank valve.
Always use cap and strap supplied with valve.
5. Hold regulator and insert nipple into the LP tank
valve. Hand-tighten the coupling nut, holding
regulator in a straight line with LP tank valve so as
not to cross-thread the connection.
6. Turn the coupling nut clockwise and tighten to a full
stop. The regulator will seal on the back-check
feature in the LP tank 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.
▲ Do not use household cleaning agents. Damage to
gas valve/hose/regulator components can result.
5
NOTE:
If you cannot complete the connection, disconnect the
regulator and repeat steps 5 and 6. If you are still unable
to complete the connection, do not use this regulator.
Call 1-800-4-MY-HOME® for identical replacement
parts.
Do not insert any tool or foreign objects 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.
If a leak is detected at any time, STOP and
call the fire department.
If you cannot stop a gas leak, immediately
close the LP tank valve and call a LP gas
supplier or your fire department!
Never attempt to attach this grill to the self-
contained LP gas system of a camper trailer
or motor home or to any unregulated source
of propane.
Do not use this grill until leak tested.
For Safe Use of Your Grill and to Avoid Serious
Injury:
Do not let children operate or play near your
grill. Keep pets away from your grill.
Keep grill area clear and free from materials
that burn.
Do not block holes in sides or back of grill.
Check burner flames regularly.
Use grill only in well-ventilated space. NEVER use

porch, covered patio, or under an overhead
structure of any kind.
Do not use charcoal or ceramic briquets in this
gas grill.
Use grill at least 36 inches (914mm) from any
wall or surface. Maintain 10 ft. clearance to
objects that can catch fire, or sources of ignition
such as pilot lights on water heaters, live
electrical appliances, etc.
NEVER attempt to light burner with lid closed. A
buildup of non-ignited gas inside a closed grill is
hazardous.
Never operate grill with LP cylinder out of correct
position specified in assembly instructions.
Always close LP cylinder valve and remove
coupling nut before moving LP cylinder from
specified operation position.

Apartment and Condominium Dwellers
Check with management to learn the requirements and
fire codes for using an LP gas grill in your complex. If
allowed, use outside on the ground floor with a three (3)
foot clearance from walls or rails. Do not use on or under
balconies.
Safety Tips
Do not preheat the grill on HIGH with the lid
closed for longer than 15 minutes. Preheating
the grill with the lid closed beyond this point
can result in excessive cooking temperatures
and risk of injury.
Putting out grease fires by closing the lid is
not possible. Grills are well ventilated for
safety reasons.
Do not use water on a grease fire. Personal
injury may result. If a grease fire develops,
turn knobs and LP cylinder off.
Do not leave grill unattended while
preheating or burning off food residue on
HIGH. If grill has not been regularly
cleaned, a grease fire can occur that may
damage the product.
Main Burners
Electronic Ignition Button
▲ Before opening LP cylinder valve, check the coupling
nut for tightness.
▲ Before each use, check the gas hose for excessive
abrasion or wear, or cuts. Replace a hose assembly
showing those signs with the hose assembly specified
in the parts list before using the grill. Inspect the hose
assembly by following it from the LP tank connection
to the gas manifold assembly.
▲ Ensure your grill is located on a level surface and use
the adjustable feet (if equipped) as necessary to
stabilize.
▲ Ensure any locking casters are locked (if equipped).
▲ Keep any electrical supply cord and the fuel supply
hose away from any heated surfaces and water.
▲ Do not lean over the grill or touch the edges of the
firebox or lid when in use.
▲ When grill is not in use, turn off all control knobs and
LP cylinder valve.
▲ Never move grill while in operation or still hot.
▲ Use long-handled barbecue utensils and oven mitts to
avoid burns and splatters.
▲ Maximum load for side burner and side shelf is 10
lbs.
▲ The grease tray must be inserted into grill and
emptied after each use. Do not remove grease tray
until grill has completely cooled.
▲ Clean grill often, preferable after each cookout. If a
bristle brush is used to clean any of the grill cooking
surfaces, ensure no loose bristles remain on cooking
surfaces prior to grilling.
▲ If you notice grease or other hot material dripping
from grill onto a valve, hose, or regulator, turn off
gas supply at once. Determine the cause, correct, and
then clean and inspect valve, hose and regulator
before continuing. Perform a leak test.
▲ Keep ventilation openings in cylinder enclosure (grill
cart or cabinet) free and clear of debris.
▲ Do not store objects or materials inside the grill cart
or cabinet enclosure that would block the flow of
combustion air to the underside of either the control
panel or the firebox bowl, such as a cover.
▲ The regulator may make a humming or whistling
noise during operation. This will not affect safety or
use of the grill.
▲ If you have a grill problem, see the “Troubleshooting
Section”.
▲ If the regulator frosts, turn off grill and LP cylinder
valve immediately. This indicates a problem with the
cylinder and it should not be used on any product.

Match-Lighting
▲ Do not lean over grill while lighting.
▲ Open lid. Turn on gas at LP cylinder slowly.
▲ Light burners one at a time.
Match Lighting the Main Burners
1. Place match into match holder (hanging from right
side of the firebox).
2. Strike the match and position lit match through the
grates and hold next to the burner.
3. Push in and turn burner control knob to Hi.
Continue to press in on the control knob until the
burner ignites or up to 5 seconds.
4. If ignition does NOT occur in 5 seconds, turn the
burner control knob OFF, wait 5 minutes for gas to
clear away, and repeat the lighting procedure.
Burner Flame Check
Remove cooking grates and heat diffusers. Light
burners, and rotate knobs from Hi to Low. You should
see a smaller flame on Low than you see on Hi.
Perform a burner flame check on the side burner as
well (if equipped). Always check flame prior to each
use. If only low flame is seen, then refer to “Sudden
flame drop or low flame” in the Troubleshooting
Section.
Turning Grill Off
Turn all knobs to OFF. Turn LP cylinder OFF by
turning the hand-wheel clockwise to a full stop.
Igniter Check
Turn gas off at LP cylinder. Press and hold electronic
ignitor button. A “clicking” sound should be heard
and spark seen between the electrode and burner.
See “Troubleshooting” if no click or spark.
Batteries
Batteries will deteriorate over time, especially in
outdoor conditions. This can cause their casings to
leak. Check the condition of the battery periodically
before use. Remove the battery from the electronic
ignition before storing your grill.
Valve Check
Important: Make sure gas if off at LP cylinder before
checking valves. Knobs lock in OFF position. To check
valves, first push in knobs and release. Knobs should
spring back. If knobs do not spring back, replace
valve assembly before using grill. Turn knobs to Low
position and then turn back to OFF position. The
valves should turn smoothly.
Hose Check
Before each use, check to see if hoses are cut or
worn. Replace damaged hoses before using grill. Use
only identical replacement part valve / hose /
regulator as specified in the Parts List of this Use and
Care Guide.
General Grill Cleaning
Hood Interior: Use a strong solution of detergent and
water or a grill cleaner with scrub brush. Rinse and
allow to air dry. Do not apply a caustic grill / oven
cleaner to painted surfaces.
Plastic Parts: Wash with warm soapy water and
wipe dry.
▲ Do not use citrisol, abrasive cleaners, degreasers
or a concentrated grill cleaner on plastic parts.
Damage to and failure of parts can result.
Porcelain Surfaces: Because of glass-like
composition, most residue can be wiped away with
baking soda / water solution or specially formulated
cleaner. Use nonabrasive scouring powder for
stubborn stains.
Painted Surfaces: Wash with mild detergent or
nonabrasive cleaner and warm soapy water. Wipe
dry with a soft nonabrasive cloth.
8
Stainless Steel Surfaces: To maintain your grill’s high
Spider Alert
If you notice that your grill is getting hard to light or
that the flame isn’t as strong as it should be, take the
time to check and clean the burner tubes.
Spiders or small insects have been known to create
“flashback” problems. The spiders spin their webs,
build nests, and lay eggs in the grill’s burner tube(s)
obstructing the flow of gas to the burner. The backedup gas can ignite in the burner tube behind the control
panel. This is known as a flashback and it can damage
your grill and even cause injury.
To prevent flashbacks and ensure good performance,
the burner and burner tube assembly should be
removed from the grill and cleaned before use
whenever the grill has been idle for an extended period.
Gas Valve Assembly

Burner Tube
quality appearance, wash with mild detergent and
warm soapy water and wipe dry with a soft cloth
after each use. Baked on grease deposits may require
the use of an abrasive plastic cleaning pad. Use only
in direction of brushed finish to avoid damage. Do
not use abrasive pad on areas with graphics.
o Do not allow dirt and grease to accumulate on
stainless steel.
o Do not use steel wool as it will scratch the
surface.
o Many products and naturally occurring
substances in the outdoors will damage all
stainless steel finishes. Use caution so they do not
come in contact with your grill. These include, but
are not limited to, pool chemicals (chlorine and
bromine), lawn fertilizer, ice melting salts, sea
and salt water, urine, bird droppings, and tree
sap.
o Store your grill 50 to 100 feet away from a pool
as many pool chemicals will cause rust.
Cooking Surfaces: Clean cooking surfaces with a soft
bristle brush. Make sure that no loose bristles remain
on cooking surfaces prior to grilling. It is not
recommended to clean cooking surface while grill is
hot.
9
Cleaning the Burner Assembly
Follow these instructions to clean and / or replace parts
of the burner assembly or if you have trouble igniting the
grill.
1. Turn gas off at control knobs and LP tank.
2. Remove the cooking grates and heat diffusers.
3. Remove the Phillips head screws located at the back
end of each burner.
4. Lift each burner up and out. Unplug the electronic
igniter wire from the electrode.
We suggest three ways to clean the burner tubes. Use the
one easiest for you.
(A) Bend a stiff wire (a lightweight coat hanger works
well) into a small hook. Run the hook through each burner
tube several times.
(B) Use a narrow bottle brush with a flexible handle (do
not use a brass wire brush). Run the brush through each
burner tube several times.
(C) Wear eye protection. Use an air hose to force air into
the burner tube and out the burner ports. Check each port
to make sure air comes out each hole.
5. Use a wire brush along the entire outer surface of
burner to remove food residue and dirt.
6. Clean any blocked ports with a stiff wire such as an
open paper clip.
7. Check burner for damage. Due to normal wear and
corrosion, some holes may become enlarged. Replace
the burner if any large cracks or holes are found.
VERY IMPORTANT: Burner tubes must re-engage valve
openings (orifices). See illustration below.
8. Plug the electronic igniter wires into the burner
electrodes.
9. Carefully replace burner tubes ensuring that the tube
end seats over the gas valve as shown in the figure
above.
10. Secure burners to back of firebox with Phillips head
bolts.
11. Perform a leak test described earlier in this guide
before using your grill.

and out of reach of children.
Storage of a gas grill indoors is permissible ONLY if
LP cylinder is turned off, disconnected, and removed
from grill. The LP cylinder must remain outdoors.
Cover your grill. Choose from a variety of grill
covers offered by manufacturers.
When removing grill from storage, follow “Cleaning
the Burner Assembly” instructions before starting the
grill.
Food Safety
Food safety is a very important part of enjoying the
outdoor cooking experience. To keep food safe from
harmful bacteria, follow these four basic steps:
Clean: Wash hands, utensils, and surfaces with hot soapy
water before and after handling raw meat and poultry.
Separate: Separate raw meats and poultry from readyto-eat foods to avoid cross contamination. Use a clean
platter and utensils when removing cooked foods.
Cook: Cook meat and poultry thoroughly to kill bacteria.
Use a thermometer to ensure proper internal food
temperatures.
Chill: Refrigerate prepared foods and leftovers promptly.
For more information call: USDA Meat and Poultry
Hotline at 1-800-535-4555 (10:00 am – 4:00 pm EST).
How To Tell If Meat Is Grilled Thoroughly
Meat and poultry cooked on a grill often browns very
fast on the outside. Use a meat thermometer to be
sure food has reached a safe internal temperature.
NEVER partially grill meat or poultry and finish
cooking later. Cook food completely.
WARNING: To ensure that it is safe to eat, food must
be cooked to the minimum internal temperatures
listed in the table below.
* United States Department of Agriculture
**Allow meat to rest three minutes before carving or
consuming.
Grilling Tips and Tricks
Food cooked on the grill is either done using direct or
indirect cooking. Direct cooking is when the food is
cooked directly over lit burners. Food is placed inbetween the lit burners for indirect cooking.
Direct: Use direct cooking to sear meats. This helps to
keep food moist by locking in juices. Some food, such as
steak, is first seared using direct cooking, and then
finished cooking using the indirect method. This is
generally used for quicker cooking foods. Remain vigilant
when grilling using this method, as it’s easy to overcook.
Indirect: Is used for foods that take longer to cook,
including large cuts of meat such as roasts. It’s also used
for cooking more delicate food that can dry out quickly
such as fish and poultry, for fattier foods to reduce flareups, and when grilling using a roasting pan or aluminum
foil. Turn burners to medium or low depending on the
temperature you want to maintain. Do not place the food
directly over any burner when using this grilling method.
You can also grill indirectly by turning one or more
burners off and placing the food over those burners that
are not being used.
Always “Preheat” your grill before cooking. Turn
burner control knobs to Hi and close the lid for 5 to
10 minutes. Then adjust the burner controls to the
proper temperature. This heats the grates to help
prevent food from sticking.
The thermometer measures the temperature high on
the lid. The temperature down by the cooking grates
is warmer.
Mother Nature can impact your grilling times. Allow
more cooking time for cold, wind, and higher
altitudes. We recommend you place your grill in an
area protected from much wind.
Trim away any excess fat from meat to reduce flare-
ups.
Keep similar size portions together so that they cook
more evenly.
Larger pieces of meat generally require more cooking
time per pound than smaller pieces.
If a major flare-up or too many flare-ups occur, turn
off the gas, and move the food away from the flare-
up. Restart the grill once the flare-up has died down.
Use a lower temperature to reduce flare-ups.
Turn foods infrequently. Use tongs rather than a fork
when turning food on the grill.
Know your sauce and when to apply. Oil and vinegar
based sauces can be brushed on any time. Sugar
based sauces like barbecue sauce should be applied
during the last few minutes of cooking.
Use a small amount of cooking oil on the cooking
grates before heating to reduce foods sticking on the
grates.
