CARE AND MAINTENANCE

WARNING: Please remember this is an outdoor gas grill. Many areas of the grill generate extreme heat. We have taken every precaution to protect you from the contact areas. However, it is impossible to isolate all high-temperature areas. Therefore, use good judgment and a certain degree of caution when grilling on this product. We suggest a covered, protected hand during operation of grill. Do not move your grill when it is in operation or hot to the touch. Wait until your unit is turned off and properly cooled down before moving it. Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury.

Post Heating

To keep the grates free of charred food remains, run the grill on “HIGH” for 15 minutes after cooking is complete and food has been removed.

CAUTION: Do not cover the grill during the post heating period.

After post heating your grill, turn the control knobs to the “OFF” position.

Propane Tank Shut-Off

After the rebox cool down, the propane tank valve should also be closed. If you do not want to wait for the rebox to cool, use a covered hand to turn off the propane tank valve.

WARNING: Do not attempt to turn off the LP tank valve without rst covering your hand

with a protective mitt or allowing the grill to cool down. Failure to follow this warning could result in a severe burn.

LP Gas Safety Requirement

For LP gas grills, the LP gas supply tank to be used must be:Constructed and marked in

accordance with the Specications for LP Gas Tanks of the U S. Department of

Transportation (DOT)or the National Standard of Canada,CAN/ CSA-B339 Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for Transportation of Dangerous Goods; and Commission, as applicable;

and Provided with a listed Overll Prevention Device (OPD).

The tank should be 12 in. in diameter and 18-1/2 in. tall and be equipped with a

Type-I tting.

The tank supply system must be arranged for vapor withdrawal. The tank used must include a collar to protect the cylinder valve. Do not operate the gas grill indoors or in any enclosed area. If the gas grill is not in use, the gas must be turned off at the supply tank. If the grill is to be stored indoors, disconnect the gas supply tank and store the tank in an upright position in a cool, well-ventilated outdoor location away from your grill or any other heat source.

When checking for gas leaks, do not use an open ame. Use a soapy water solution and apply it to the pipe joints and ttings with a brush and check for bubbles. Check exible hoses

for cuts and wear that may affect the safe operation of the grill. Only the factory supplied hose

and regulator must be used. Use only replacement regulator and hose assemblies specied

by manufacturer.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

LP tank should be securely locked by the gas cylinder safety stop at all times. An unlocked tank may fall or tilt which can cause injury or property damage. It is recommended to lock the tank all the time.

Refer to Fig. 26 and Fig. 27. After positioning the tank in the opening, safety stop to lock the tank. Use only a 20 lb. gas tank (see LP Gas Safety Requirements for Additional Information).

Handling the Liquid Propane Tank Safely

Remember to handle your portable liquid propane tank carefully when you take it to your

dealer for a rell. Avoid dropping it or bumping it against sharp objects. Liquid propane tanks

are sturdily constructed, but a series of hard jolts could damage the container.

When transporting the tank to your local propane gas dealer, make sure the valve is closed tightly and the protective cover is in place. Position the tank securely in an upright position so it will not roll around your vehicle.

If you plan to make stops for shopping or errands, have your liquid propane tank lled at the last stop before going home. Again, make certain the relled tank is secure and in an upright position. When you return home, remove the relled tank from your vehicle. Never leave a

portable liquid propane tank inside a vehicle that may become overheated by the sun. Your local liquid propane gas dealer will gladly offer you additional safety tips.

Storing the Liquid Propane Tank Safely

Whether you are between cross-country treks in your recreational vehicle or looking for a place to keep the liquid propane tank to provide fuel for your outdoor grill, keep in mind some basic safety rules about storing portable liquid propane tanks:

Do not store the tanks (whether full or empty) inside your home, the living area of an R.V., a garage, basement or workshop. It is unlikely that liquid propane will leak from the tanks. If it should leak, the fuel could be exposed to sparks from automobiles, power tools or other appliances. When storing or transporting your LP tank, it must remain in an upright position. Never lay your LP tank down on its side whether it is full or empty. Never store a spare tank under or near your grill.

CAUTION: Never transport or move your grill or grill tank without rst closing the

manual valve on your liquid propane gas tank.

The best place to store a liquid propane tank is in a shady or protected spot outdoors, behind your home or garage, or on a screened porch but where it is out of reach of children. Liquid propane will not evaporate. It is in a strong, closed container. It will not lose any of its clean-burning heat content, even if left outside year-round.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE WARNING: When not connected to your grill, the LP gas tank must be stored in an

upright position in a cool, shady, well-ventilated, outdoor location away from your grill or any other heat source. Failure to follow this warning could lead to tank valve

damage, re hazard and personal injury.

Relling a Propane Tank

It is extremely important that your LP tank be lled properly when you take it to be relled. Be sure to use a reputable LP dealer and observe how the tank is lled and at what capacity. An overlled LP tank can be dangerous.

The proper way to ll a tank is by weight. The empty tank should be placed on a scale.The

scale weights should be readjusted to a weight that would allow up to 80% of the total weight.

The lling operation must end once the tank is lled to 80% of its total capacity. If the tank is

not completely empty, the scale readjustment must be changed to consider the propane (LP) already in the tank.

WARNING: An LP (propane) tank is overlled if it contains moret han 80% of its total

capacity of propane (LP).

An incorrectly lled or an overlled LP (propane) tank can be dangerous. If a tank is overlled

and the weather causes the warming of the LP tank (a hot day, tank left in sun or stored indoors), internal pressure is created due to expansion of the propane which in turn may cause the LP gas to be released through the pressure relief valve on the tank.The pressure relief valve is a safety device required on 20 lb. propane tanks by the Department of Transportation or the National Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA-B339 Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for Transportation of Dangerous Goods; and Commission, as applicable, to prevent a catastrophic tank failure due to excessive pressure. LP gas released from the tank is

ammable and can be explosive.

IMPORTANT: When connecting or replacing gas pipe or ttings, all joints must be

sealed with approved leak-proof sealing compound or plumber’s tape. After making connections, check all joints for leaks using a soapy water solution and a brush.

WARNING: Never use an open ame to test for gas leaks. Use of an open ame could result in a re, explosion and bodily harm.

Stainless Steel

The control panel and lid handle of the gas grill is made of stainless steel. Stainless steel is nonrusting in certain conditions; therefore, a cover and stainless steel cleaner should be used when the grill is not in use. Wipe with stainless steel cleaner on all non-cooking surfaces once a month. Never clean the stainless steel when it is hot.

After initial grilling, certain areas of the grill (i.e. the vents, hood and rebox) may discolor.

This is a normal discoloration caused by the intense heat from the burners.
