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.
16
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.

gas leaks. Follow these three steps:
□ Make a soap solution by mixing one part liquid
detergent and one part water.
□ Turn the grill Control Knobs to the full OFF
position, then turn the gas ON at source.
□ Apply the soap solution to all gas connections
indicated by the arrows. See diagram. If
bubbles appear in the soap solution the
connections are not properly sealed. Check
each fitting and tighten or repair as necessary.
CAUTION; When the appliance is not in use the gas
must be turned off at the tank.
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 have a gas leak that cannot be repaired
by tightening, turn off the gas at the source,
disconnect fuel line from your grill and call
