Additional Limited Warranty on Selected Grill Parts

IF YOU SMELL GAS:

1. Shut off gas to the appliance.

2 Extinguish any open flame.

3. Open lid.

4. If odor continues, keep away from

the appliance and immediately call your gas supplier or your fire department.

1. Do not store or use gasoline or

other flammable liquids in the vicin- ity of this or any other appliance.

2. Any LP cylinder not connected for

use shall not be stored in the vicinity of this or any other

appliance.

LPG grill models must be used with Liquid Propane Gas and the regulator assembly

supplied. Natural Gas models must be used with Natural Gas only. Any attempt to convert the grill from one fuel type to another is

extremely hazardous and will void the warranty.

Never use your gas grill in a garage, porch, shed,

breezeway or any other enclosed area.

Never obstruct the flow of ventilation air around

your gas grill housing.

Never disconnect the gas regulator or any gas fitting while your grill is lit. A lit grill can ignite

leaking gas and cause a fire or explosion which

could result in property damage, personal injury or

death.

Keep gas regulator hose away from hot grill

surfaces and dripping grease. Avoid unneces-

sary 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

Kenmore replacement hose.

Grill Installation Codes The installation must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with either the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Natural Gas and Propance installation Code, CSA B149.1, or Propane Storage and Handling Code, B149.2.

1. Remove the screw from the rear of each Burner using a Phillips Head Screwdriver.

2. Carefully lift each Burner up and away from the Gas Valve Orifice.

3. Check and clean Burner/Venturi Tubes for insects and insect nests. A clogged tube can lead to a fire

beneath the grill.

4. Refer to the figure below and perform one of

these 3 cleaning methods:

[] METHOD 1: Bend a stiff wire or wire coat

hanger into a small hook as shown and run the hook through the Burner Tube and inside the Burner several times to remove debris.

[] METHOD 2: Use a bottle brush with a

flexible handle and run the brush through the Burner Tube and inside the Burner

several times to remove any debris.

[] METHOD 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.

For safe operation ensure the Gas Valve Assem- bly Orifice is inside the Burner Tube before using your grill. See figure. If the Orifice is not inside the Burner Tube, lighting the Burner may cause explosion and/or fire resulting in serious bodily injury and/or property damage.

tions:

[] Tools Required for Assembly include:

• protective eyewear

• #2 & #3 Phillips Head Screwdriver

[]

You will need assistance from another person to handle the grill head and other large, heavy parts.

Open Lid of shipping carton and remove parts box and packing materials. Lay cardboard sheet on floor and use as a work surface to protect floor and grill parts from scratches.

You may slice the carton front corners with a utility knife to lay open the carton front panel. This allows you to raise the grill head Lid and remove the components packed inside, making it easier to lift. Use the sliced off carton front as a work surface to protect floor and grill parts from scratches.

Use the Hardware and Part Diagrams to ensure all items are included and free of damage.

Do not assemble or operate the grill if it appears damaged. For repair or replacement parts that you need call anytime day(_r night:
