Grill Installation Codes
The installation must conform with local codes or, in

Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, or CAN/
CGA-B149.1, Natural Gas and Propane Installation
Code.
¡Sears, Roebuck and Co.
Correct LP Gas Tank Use
LP gas griii models are designed for use with a
standard 20 lb. Liquid Propane Gas (LP gas) tank,
not included in grifi box. Never connect your gas
grill to an LP gas tank that exceeds this capacity.
A tank of approximately 12 inches in diameter by
18-1/2 inches high is the maximum size LP gas
tank to use. You must use an "OPD" gas tank
which offers a listed Overfill Prevention Device.
This safety feature prevents tank from being overfilled
which can cause malfunction of LP gas tank,
regulator and/or grill.
The LP gas tank must be constructed and marked
in accordance with the Specifications for LP-Gas
Cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportation
(p.O.T.) or the National Standard of Canada, CAN/
CSA-B339, Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for Trans
portation of Dangerous Goods; and Commission, as
applicable.
1. The LP gas tank has a shutoff valve, termi
nating in an LP gas supply tank valve outlet,
that is compatible with a Type 1 tank con
nection device. The LP gas tank must also
have a safety relief device that has a direct
connection with the vapor space of the tank.
2. The tank supply system must be arranged
for vapor withdrawal.
3. The LP gas tank used must have a collar
to protect the tank valve.
LP gas tanks must be stored outdoors in a
well-ventilated area and out of the reach of
children. Disconnected LP gas tanks must not
be stored in a building, garage or any other
enclosed area.
When your gas grill is not in use the gas
must be turned off at the LP gas tank.
The regulator and hose assembly can be seen
after opening the doors (if applicable), must be
inspected before each use of the grill. If there
is excessive abrasion or wear or if the hose is
cut, it must be replaced prior to the grill being
used again.
Keep the gas regulator hose away from hot
grill surfaces and dripping grease. Avoid unnec
essary twisting of hose. Visually inspect hose
prior to each use for cuts, cracks, excessive
wear or other damage. If the hose appears
damaged do not use the gas grill. Call Sears
at 1-800-4-MY-HOME (1-800-469-4663) for a
Sears authorized replacement hose.
Never light your gas grill with the lid closed or
before checking to ensure the burner tubes are
fully seated over the gas valve orifices.
Never allow children to operate your grill. Do
not allow children to play near your grill.
Proper Placement and Clearance of Grill
Never use your gas grill in a garage, porch, shed,
breezeway or any other enclosed area. Your gas grill is
to be used outdoors only, at least 24 inches from the
back and side of any combustible surface. Do not
locate this appliance under overhead unprotected
combustible surfaces. Do not obstruct the flow of
ventilation air around the gas grill housing.
This outdoor gas grill is not intended to be installed in
or on recreational vehicles and/or boats.
• Never connect an unregulated LP gas tank to
your gas grill. The gas regulator assembly
supplied with your gas grill is adjusted to have
an outlet pressure of 11” water column (W.C.)
for connection to an LP gas tank.
• Only use the regulator and hose assembly
supplied with your gas grill. Replacement
regulators and hose assemblies must be those
specified by Sears.
• Have your LP gas tank filled by a reputable
propane gas dealer and visually Inspected and
re-qualified at each filling.
• Never fill the gas tank beyond 80% full.
Have your propane gas dealer check the
release valve after every filling to ensure that it
remains free of defects.
• Always keep LP gas tanks in upright position.
Do not store (or use) gasoline or other flammable
vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this gas grill.
• LP gas tanks not connected for use must NOT be
stored on bottom shelf or in the vicinity of this or
any other gas grill.
• Do not subject the LP gas tank to excessive heat.
• Never store an LP gas tank indoors. If you
store your gas grill in the garage or other indoor
location, always disconnect the LP gas tank
first and store it safely outside.
Awarning
If you smell gas:
• Shut off gas supply to the gas grill.
• Turn the Control Knobs to OFF position.
• Extinguish any open flame such as candle,
cigarette, lighter, etc., that could cause gas
to ignite.
• Open the Grill Lid.
• Get away from the LP gas tank.
• Do not try to fix the problem yourself.
• If odor continues or you have a fire you
cannot extinguish, call your fire
department. Do not call near the LP gas
tank because your telephone is an electri
cal device and could create a spark
resulting In fire and/or explosion.
NOTE: The normal flow of gas through the
regulator and hose assembly can create a
humming noise. A low volume of noise is
perfectly normal and will not interfere with
operation of the grill. If humming noise is
loud and excessive you may need to purge
air from the gas line or reset the regulator
excess gas flow device. This purging proce
dure should be done every time a new LP
gas tank is connected to your grill. For help
call the Grill Information Center for
assistance, Sam - 8pm CST, Monday
through Friday 1-888-317-7642.
CAUTION: BEWARE OF FLASHBACK
Flashback Prevention
CAUTION: Spiders and small insects occa
sionally spin webs or make nests in the grill
Burner Tubes during transit and warehousing.
These webs can lead to a gas flow obstruc
tion which could result in a fire in and around
the Burner Tubes. This type of fire is known
as a "FLASHBACK" and can cause serious
damage to your grill and create an unsafe
operating condition for the user.
To reduce the chance of "FLASHBACK", you
must clean the burner tubes before assem
bling your grill, and at least once a month in
late summer or early fall when spiders are
most active. Also perform this Burner Tube
cleaning procedure if your grill has not been
used for an extended period of time.
Figure 1
To reduce the chance of "FLASHBACK" (see
CAUTION at left) clean the Burner Tubes and
Burners before fully assembling your grill.
Remove the Cotter Pin from the rear underside
of each Burner using a pair of long nose pliers.
Carefully lift each Burner up and away from the
Gas Valve Orifice, then refer to Figure 1 and
perform one of these three cleaning methods:
1.
Bend a stiff wire, (a lightweight coat hanger
works well) into a small hook as shown
below. Run the hook through the Burner Tube
and inside the Burner several times to remove
any debris.
2.
Use a bottle brush with a flexible handle.
Run the brush through the Burner Tube and
inside the Burner several times, removing any
debris.
3.
Use an air hose to force air through each
Burner Tube. The forced air should pass
debris or obstructions through the Burner and
out the Ports.

Assembly Tips
Long nose pliers can be used to remove
Cotter Pin when cleaning the Burners

Ref. # P05515102K
Awarning
The location of the Burner Tube with re
spect to the Orifice is vital for safe
operation. Check to ensure the Orifice is
inside the Burner Tube before using your
gas griil. See Fig. 2. If the Orifice is not
inside the Burner Tube, lighting the Burner
may cause explosion and/or fire.
