-- preferably 10 feet (3m) from your residence or any outbuildings.

• Always keep the area around your grill clear of any combustible materials, gasoline, or other flammable liquids.

• DO NOT operate this grill under overhead or unprotected construction.

• DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air to the grill.

• DO NOT use in garages, sheds, breezeways, or other enclosed areas.

• DO NOT store a spare L.P. (propane) cylinder under or near your grill.

• DO NOT leave your grill unattended while in operation.

• DO NOT allow children to operate or play near your grill.

ELECTRICAL CAUTION

• If any accessory installed on this grill requires an external

electrical power source, it must be electrically grounded in accordance with local laws or in the absence of local laws, with the Canadian Electrical Code CSA C22.1 or in the U.S., with the National Electrical Code ANSI-NFPA 70.

• The three-prong plug provides protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.

• Ensure all electrical supply cords and fuel supply hoses are kept well away from any heated surfaces.

L.P. GAS CYLINDER

Gas cylinders manufactured today have mechanisms to provide worry free grilling year round:

Q.C.C.1 or Type 1-Quick Connect Coupling Valve, ensure fast tank

hook-ups requiring only hand tightening. The redundant

valve system inhibits the flow of gas to the burner if the connection is not correct.

O.P.D. or Overfill Protection Device prevents accidental

gas leaks caused by cylinder ‘over-pressurization’, the leading cause of cylinder gas leaks. The float in the tank will automatically stop filling at 80% capacity, leaving a 20% area for the expansion of liquid. Without this safety feature, the relief valve may open and discharge propane, creating a potential safety hazard. An O.P.D. cylinder is easily distinguished by its triangular hand wheel valve.

• ALWAYS use the cylinder cap provided with your cylinder whenever the cylinder is not connected to your grill. (Figure 4)

• DO NOT store in a building, garage or any other enclosed area. Store in a well-ventilated area.

• DO NOT store near any gas burning apparatus or in any high-heat areas such as a closed car or trunk.

• Transport and store the cylinder in an upright position -- do not tip on its side.

• Store out of reach of children.

• DO NOT smoke while transporting a cylinder in your vehicle.

FILLING: FOR SAFETY REASONS, IF AN OPTIONAL L.P. GAS CYLINDER WAS SUPPLIED WITH YOUR GRILL, IT HAS BEEN SHIPPED EMPTY. THE CYLINDER MUST BE PURGED OF AIR AND FILLED PRIOR TO USING ON YOUR GRILL. WHEN GETTING YOUR CYLINDER FILLED:

• Allow only a qualified L.P. gas dealer to fill or repair your cylinder.

• DO NOT allow the cylinder to be filled beyond 80% full.

• Make sure the L.P. gas dealer checks the cylinder for leaks after filling.
