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 unnecessary 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 replacement hose.
