Final Grill Assembly Step

When you have finished assembling your grill be sure that all screws are tightened for safe operation of your grill.

Failure to read and follow the Use and Care Instructions could result in a fire or explosion

that could cause serious bodily injury, death or

property damage.

LP Gas Tank Installation

CORRECT LP GAS TANK USE

□ LP Gas grill models are designed for use with a

standard 20 lb. Liquid Propane Gas (LP Gas) tank, not included with grill. 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 LPGas Cylin ders of the U.S. Department of Transportation (D.O.T.)

National Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA-B339,

or the Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for Transportation of Dangerous Goods; and Commission, as applicable.

□ The LP Gas tank must have a shutoff valve, terminat

ing in an LP Gas supply tank valve outlet, that is compatible with a Type 1 tank connection device. The LP Gas tank must also have a safety relief device that has a direct connection with the vapor space of the tank.

□ The tank supply system must be arranged for vapor

withdrawal.

□ The LP Gas tank used must have a collar

to protect the tank valve.

□ 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.

and hose assemblies must be those specified by Kenmore. See Parts List.

□ Have your LP Gas dealer check the release valve

after every filling to ensure it remains free of defects. □ Always keep LP Gas tank in upright position. □ 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 always disconnect the

LP Gas tank first and store it safely outside. □ 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. □ The regulator and hose assembly can be seen after

opening the doors (if applicable) and 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 using the grill again.

Replacement regulators

□ Use of alcohol, prescription or non-prescription

drugs can impair your ability to properly assemble and safely operate your grill.

□ Keep fire extinguisher readily accessible. In the

event of a oil/grease fire, do not attempt to extinguish with water. Use type B extinguisher or smother with dirt, sand or baking soda.

□ In the event of rain, cover the grill and turn off

the burner and gas supply.

□ Use your grill on a level, stable surface in an

area clear of combustible materials. □ Do not leave grill unattended when in use. □ Do not move the appliance when in use. □ Allow the grill to cool before moving or storing. □ Do not use your grill as a heater. □ This grill is not intended to be installed in or on

recreational vehicles and/or boats.

A Do not store a spare LP-Gas tank under or near

this appliance. B. Never fill the tank beyond 80 percent full; and C. If the information in "(a)” and "(b)" is not followed

exactly, a fire causing death or serious injury may

occur.

Use your grill at least 3 feet away from any

wall or surface. Use your grill at least 3 feet away from combustible objects that can melt

or catch fire such as vinyl or wood siding, fences and overhangs or sources of ignition

including pilot lights on water heaters and live

electrical appliances.

Outdoor cooking gas appliance shall not be used under overhead combustible construction.

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.

In windy conditions, always position the front of

grill to face oncoming wind to reduce smoke and

heat blowing in your face and prevent potential hazards to self and grill.

□ 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 or pets to play near your grill.

NOTE about LP Gas Tank Exchange Programs

• Many retailers that sell grills offer you the option of replacing your empty LP Gas tank through an ex

change 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 Gas tank section of this manuai.

• Aiways keep new and exchanged LP Gas tanks in

an upright position during use, transit or storage.

• Leak test new and exchanged LP Gas tanks BEFORE

connecting one to your grill.

How to Leak Test your LP Gas Tank For your safety:

• All leak tests must be repeated each time your LP Gas tank is exchanged or refilled.

• When checking for gas leaks do not smoke.

• Do not use an open flame to check for gas leaks.

• Your grill must be leak tested outdoors in a wellventilated area, away from ignition sources such as gas fired or electrical appliances. During the leak test,

keep your grill away from open flames or sparks.
