Well ventilated space, NOT in a building, gar­age, or any other enclosed area. It must be out
of reach of children. A dust cap MUST be used
whenever the tank is disconnected from the
grill. When grill is not in use, close propane tank
cylinder valve.
When the propane tank is connected, the grill
must be stored outdoors in a well ventilated
space, not in a building, garage or any other
enclosed area. Always close the propane tank
before disconnecting it from the grill or when
the grill is not in use.
If the grill is going to be stored for winter or for
an extended period of time, we suggest you fol­low these steps:

-The burner should be cleaned and coated
lightly with cooking oil to prevent from rusting.

-The venture openings should be covered with
aluminum foil to prevent small insects from
entering the opening during storage and must
be removed before using.

pressure regulator is preset for an outlet pres­sure of 11 inches (27.9 cm) water column.
Therefore, this pressure regulator MUST be
used with your Scottsdale Grill. Before each
use of the grill inspect the hose for wear, crack­ing and examine for any cuts. If any these con­ditions exist, do not use, purchase a new hose
and regulator. If a replacement is needed, refer
to the parts list for the part number and contact
the dealer where your grill was purchased. Re­fer to “Connecting the Cylinder to the Grill”
for details of hooking up your regulator to the
LP gas cylinder. Make sure a leak test is per­formed every time you have your LP gas cylin­der refilled, and visibly inspect for excessive
wear and damage on a regular basis. Always
follow the directions for the “Leak Test”.

replacing the LP Valve with the appropriate Nat­ural Gas Valve. (Part #HHVLV32-SD). A con­version is only be made by an authorized

Phoenix Grill dealer or local gas utility in ac­cordance with all applicable codes. CAUTION:

grill is not in use.
