Completed Assembly

When purchasing or exchanging a cylinder for your gas grill, it must

be constructed and marked in accordance with the specifications

for LP gas cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT)

or the National Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA-B339 Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for Transportation of Dangerous Goods; and

Commission, as applicable; and provided with a listed over-filling prevention device (OPD), and provided with a cylinder connection

device compatible with the connection for outdoor cooking appliances.

The cylinder must also be equipped with:

• A shut-off valve terminating in a Type 1 gas cylinder valve outlet.

• A Type 1 valve that prevents gas flow until a positive seal is obtained.

• An arrangement for vapor withdrawal.

• A collar to protect the cylinder shut-off valve.

• A safety relief device having direct communication with the vapor space of the cylinder.

• A listed over-filling prevention device (OPD).

Turn off the cylinder valve when your grill is not in use.

• Handle the tank with care.

• Always secure the cylinder in an upright position.

• Never connect an unregulated LP gas cylinder to your grill.

• DO NOT expose LP gas cylinders to excessive heat or

ignition sources.

• DO NOT store a spare LP gas cylinder under or near your grill.

• Allow only qualified LP gas dealers to fill or repair your LP gas cylinder.

• DO NOT allow the cylinder to be filled beyond 80% capacity.

• Read and follow all warnings and instructions that are on the cylinder and that accompany this product.

Never store a spare LP gas cylinder under or near your grill. This could cause excess pressure to be expelled through the vapor relief valve resulting in fire, explosion, or severe personal injury including death.

Note: PROPANE GAS IS HEAVIER THAN AIR AND WILL

COLLECT IN LOW AREAS.PROPER VENTILATION

IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT.

FILLING THE LP GAS CYLINDER:

Allow only qualified LP gas dealers to properly fill or repair your LP gas cylinder.

New tanks should be purged prior to filling; inform LP gas dealer if you are using a new tank.

DO NOT allow the cylinder to be filled beyond 80%

capacity. Over-filled tanks can create a dangerous condition. Over-filled tanks can build-up pressure and

cause the relief valve to expel propane gas vapors. The vapor is combustible and if it comes in contact with a spark source or flame an explosion causing severe burns, bodily harm, or death could occur.

The 20 Ib LP cylinder used with this smoker must conform to the following requirements.

Diameter- 12" (30.5cm)

Height 18" (45.7cm) With a maximum capacity of 20 pounds. The gas cylinder used must include a collar to protect the cylinder valve. The cylinder supply system must be arranged for vapor withdrawal.

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.

If you exchange a cylinder with a qualified exchange program, be sure the cylinder has a Type 1 valve and an over-filling prevention device (OPD).

INSTALLING THE LP GAS CYLINDER

ONTO THE GRILL:

Check that the cylinder valve is closed by turning the knob

clockwise.

Place the cylinder into the tank holder in the bottom of

cabinet.

Orient the cylinder such that the valve opening faces the

side burner, and so that the hose is not kinked or damaged.

Attach or detach regulator to the LP gas cylinder only when cylinder is at rest in tank holder.

Keep the ventilation opening(s) of the LP gas cylinder enclosure free and clear from obstructions and debris.

DO NOT insert any foreign objects into the valve outlet. Damage to the back-check could result. A damaged back-check can cause a leak, possibly resulting in

explosion, fire, severe bodily harm, or death.
