USE AND CARE

DANGER

• NEVER store a spare LP cylinder under or near the

appliance or in an enclosed area.

• Never fill a cylinder beyond 80% full.

• If the information in the two points above is not

followed exactly, a fire causing death or serious injury may occur.

• An over filled or improperly stored cylinder is a

hazard due to possible gas release from the safety relief valve. This could cause an intense fire with risk of property damage, serious injury or death.

• If you see, smell or hear gas escaping, immediately

get away from the LP cylinder and appliance and call your fire department.

LP Tank

• The LP Tank used with your grill must meet the following requirements:

• Use LP Tanks only with these required measurements: 12"

(30.5cm) (diameter) x 18" (45.7 cm) (tall) with 20 lb. (9 kg.) capacity maximum.

• LP Tanks must be constructed and marked in accordance with specifications for LP Tanks of the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) or for Canada, CAN/CSA-B339, tanks, spheres and tubes for transportation of dangerous goods. Transport Canada (TC). See LP Tank collar for marking.

• LP Tank valve must have:

• Type 1 outlet compatible with

regulator or grill.

• Safety relief valve.

• UL listed Overfill Protection

Device (OPD). This OPD safety feature is identified by a unique triangular hand wheel. Use

only LP Tanks equipped with this type of valve.

• LP Tank must be arranged for vapor withdrawal and include collar to protect LP Tank valve. Always keep LP Tanks in upright position during use, transit or storage.

• Do not store an LP tank in an area where children play.

4 • 464224010

LP (Liquefied Petroleum Gas)

• LP gas is nontoxic, odorless and colorless when produced. For Your Safety, LP gas has been given an odor (similar to rotten

cabbage) so that it can be smelled.

• LP gas is highly flammable and may ignite unexpectedly when mixed with air.

LP Tank Filling

• Use only licensed and experienced dealers.

• LP dealer must purge new tank before filling.

• Dealer should NEVER fill LP Tank more than 80% of LP Tank

volume. Volume of propane in tank will vary by temperature.

• A frosty regulator indicates gas overfill. Immediately close LP Tank valve and call local LP gas dealer for assistance.

• Do not release liquid propane (LP) gas into the atmosphere. This is a hazardous practice.

• To remove gas from LP Tank, contact an LP dealer or call a local fire department for assistance. Check the telephone directory under “Gas Companies” for nearest certified LP dealers.

LP Tank Exchange

Connecting Regulator To The LP Tank

• Many retailers that sell grills offer you the option of replacing your empty LP tank through an exchange 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 Tank" section of this manual.

• Always keep new and exchanged LP tanks in upright position

during use, transit or storage.

• Leak test new and exchanged LP tanks BEFORE

connecting to grill.

• 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.

Safety Tips

?Before opening LP cylinder valve, check the coupling nut for

tightness.

?When grill is not in use, turn off all control knobs and LP

cylinder valve.

?Never move grill while in operation or still hot. ?Use long-handled barbecue utensils and oven mitts to avoid

burns and splatters.

?Maximum load for sideburner and side shelf is 10 lbs. ?The grease tray must be inserted into grill and emptied after

each use. Do not remove grease tray until grill has completely cooled.

Clean grill often, preferably after each cookout. If a bristle

brush is used to clean any of the grill cooking surfaces,

ensure no loose bristles remain on cooking surfaces prior to grilling. It is not recommended to clean cooking surfaces while grill is hot.

?If you notice grease or other hot material dripping from grill

onto valve, hose or regulator, turn off gas supply at once. Determine the cause, correct it, then clean and inspect valve, hose and regulator before continuing. Perform a leak test.

?Keep ventilation openings in cylinder enclosure (grill cart) free

and clear of debris.

?Do not store objects or materials inside the grill cart

enclosure that would block the flow of combustion air to the underside of either the control panel or the firebox bowl.

?The regulator may make a humming or whistling noise during

operation. This will not affect safety or use of grill.

?If you have a grill problem see the "Troubleshooting Section". ?If the regulator frosts, turn off grill and LP cylinder valve

immediately. This indicates a problem with the cylinder and it should not be used on any product. Return to supplier!

• Apartment Dwellers:

Check with management to learn the requirements and fire codes for using an LP gas grill in your apartment complex. If allowed, use outside on the ground floor with a three (3) foot clearance from walls or rails. Do not use on or under balconies.

• NEVER attempt to light burner with lid closedA. buildup of non-ignited gas inside a closed grill is hazardous.

Hose Check

• Before each use, check to see if hoses are cut or worn.

Replace damaged hoses before using grill. Use only valve/hose/regulator specified by manufacturer.

General Grill Cleaning

• Do not mistake brown or black accumulation of grease and

smoke for paint. Interiors of gas grills are not painted at the factory (and should never be painted). Apply a strong solution of detergent and water or use a grill cleaner with scrub brush on insides of grill lid and bottom. Rinse and allow to completely air dry. Do not apply a caustic grill/oven cleaner to painted or glass surfaces.

• Plastic parts: Wash with warm soapy water and wipe dry.

? Do not use citrisol, abrasive cleaners, degreasers or a concentrated grill cleaner on plastic parts. Damage to and failure of parts can result.

• Porcelain surfaces: Because of glass-like composition, most

residue can be wiped away with baking soda/water solution or specially formulated cleaner. Use nonabrasive scouring powder for stubborn stains.

• Painted surfaces: Wash with mild detergent or nonabrasive

cleaner and warm soapy water. Wipe dry with a soft nonabrasive cloth.

• Stainless steel surfaces: To maintain your grill’s high quality

appearance, wash with mild detergent and warm soapy water and wipe dry with a soft cloth after each use. Baked-on grease deposits may require the use of an abrasive plastic cleaning pad. Use only in direction of brushed finish to avoid damage. Do not use abrasive pad on areas with graphics.

• Cooking surfaces: If a bristle brush is used to clean any of the grill cooking surfaces, ensure no loose bristles remain on cooking surfaces prior to grilling. It is not recommended to clean cooking surfaces while grill is hot.

CAUTION

Do not remove glass for cleaning.

Glass is not dishwasher safe.

CAUTION

SPIDER ALERT!

SPIDER AND WEBS INSIDE BURNER TUBE

If you notice that your grill is getting hard to light or that the flame isn’t as strong as it should be, take the time to check and clean the See section “Cleaning Burner burner tubes. Assemblies” next page.

VALVE

CONTROL PANEL

In some areas of the country, spiders or small insects have been known to create “flashback” problems. The spiders spin webs, build nests and lay eggs in the grill’s obstructing the flow of burner tube(s) gas to the burner. The backed-up gas can ignite in the burner tube behind the control panel. This is known as a flashback and it can damage your grill and even cause injury.

To prevent flashbacks and ensure good performance the burner and burner tube assembly should be removed from the grill and cleaned before use whenever the grill has been idle for an extended period.

into a small hook. Run the hook through each burner tube several times.

(B) Use a narrow bottle brush with a flexible handle (do not

use a brass wire brush), run the brush through each burner tube several times.

the burner tube and out the burner ports. Check each port to make sure air comes out each hole.

7. Wire brush entire outer surface of burner to remove food residue and dirt.

8. Clean any blocked ports with a stiff wire such as an open paper clip.

9. Check burner for damage, due to normal wear and corrosion some holes may become enlarged. If any large cracks or holes are found replace burner.

VERY IMPORTANT: Burner tubes must re-engage valve

openings. See illustrations at right.

10.

Carefully replace burners.

11.

Attach electrode to burner.

12. Attach burners to brackets on firebox.

Storing Your Grill

• Clean cooking grates.

• Store in dry location.

• When LP tank is connected to grill, store outdoors in wellventilated space and out of reach of children.

• Cover grill if stored outdoors.

• Store grill indoors ONLY if LP tank is turned off and disconnected, removed from grill and stored outdoors.

• When removing grill from storage follow "Cleaning Burner Assembly" instructions before starting grill.

Food Safety

Food safety is a very important part of enjoying the outdoor cooking experience. To keep food safe from harmful bacteria, follow these four basic steps: Clean: Wash hands, utensils, and surfaces with hot soapy water

before and after handling raw meat and poultry.

Separate: Separate raw meats and poultry from ready-to-eat

foods to avoid cross contamination. Use a clean platter and utensils when removing cooked foods.

Cook: Cook meat and poultry thoroughly to kill bacteria. Use a

food thermometer to ensure proper internal food temperatures.

Chill: Refrigerate prepared foods and leftovers promptly. For more information call: USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline at 1-800-535-4555 (In Washington, DC (202) 720-3333, 10:00 am4:00 pm EST).

How To Tell If Meat Is Grilled Thoroughly

• Meat and poultry cooked on a grill often browns very fast on the

outside. Use a meat thermometer to be sure food has reached a safe internal temperature, and cut into food to check for visual signs of doneness.

• Whole poultry should reach 165° F. Juices should run clear and flesh should not be pink.

• Hamburgers made of any ground meat or poultry should reach 160° F, and be brown in the middle with no pink juices. Beef, veal and lamb steaks, roasts and chops can be cooked to 145° F. All cuts of pork should reach 160° F.

• NEVER partially grill meat or poultry and finish cooking later. Cook food completely to destroy harmful bacteria.

• When reheating takeout foods or fully cooked meats like hot dogs, grill to 165° F, or until steaming hot.
