Important

Note: Keep this manual with the grill for future reference.

RECORD YOUR SERIAL #: (see the silver ETL label on the grill base)

WARNING

• Failure to comply with these instructions could result in a fire or explosion that could cause serious bodily injury,
death, or property damage.

• Whether this grill was assembled by you or someone else, you must read this entire manual before using your grill to
ensure the grill is properly assembled, installed, and maintained.

• Use your grill at least three feet away from any wall or surface. Use your grill at least three feet away from combustible
objects that can melt or catch fire such as vinyl or wood siding, fences and overhangs, or sources of ignition, including
pilot lights on water heaters and live electrical appliances.

• THIS GAS ACCESSORY IS DESIGNED FOR OUTDOOR USE ONLY.

• 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.

• If an electrical accessory is used with the grill, this appliance must be electrically grounded in accordance with local
codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, or the Canadian Electrical
Code, CSA C22.1.
Electrical accessories must be equipped with a three-prong plug and be connected to a properly grounded wall outlet.
Do not expose electrical accessories to water and avoid use in wet weather as it may present a shock hazard. Keep
electrical cords away from all heated surfaces.

• Keep any electrical supply cord and the fuel supply hose away from any heated surfaces.

• Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable liquids or vapors in the vicinity of this or any other appliances.

• A propane tank not connected for use must not be stored in the vicinity of the grill or any other appliance.

• Liquid propane gas 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.

• Keep the gas regulator hose away from hot grill surfaces and dripping grease. Avoid unnecessary twisting of the hose.
Visually inspect the hose prior to each use for cuts, cracks, excessive wear, or other damage. If the hose appears
damaged, do not use the gas grill. Contact the Customer Service Helpline for a certified replacement hose.

• State of California Proposition 65

• Never use charcoal or lighter fluid in this gas grill. Failure to comply with these instructions could result in a grease
fire or explosion that could cause serious bodily injury, death, or property damage.

• Before each use of your grill, inspect the grease tray, flame tamers, and the inside of the grill bowl to be sure there is
no excessive grease and debris buildup. Clean the grease tray, flame tamers, and inside of the grill bowl frequently to
eliminate grease/debris buildup and to prevent grease fires. Failure to comply with these instructions could result in
a grease fire and even a subsequent explosion that could cause serious bodily injury, death, or property damage.

TYTUS 4-Burner Gas Grill & 4-Burner Island Gas Grill

• NEVER cover slots, holes, or passages in the grill bowl or cover an entire rack with material such as aluminum foil.
Doing so blocks air flow through the grill and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may trap
heat, causing a fire hazard. If the instructions above are not followed exactly, a fire may cause death or serious injury.

• Your grill will get very hot. Never lean over the cooking area while using your grill. Do not touch cooking surfaces, grill
housing, grill lid, or any other grill parts while the grill is in operation, or until the grill has cooled after use. Failure to
comply with these instructions may result in serious bodily injury.

• Never store flammable liquids or materials in the cabinet. Failure to comply with these instructions could result in a
fire or explosion that could cause serious bodily injury, death, or property damage.

CAUTION

• Failure to comply with these instructions may result in a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in
injury.

• Spiders and small insects can spin webs and nest in the grill burner tubes during transit and warehousing which can
lead to a gas flow obstruction, resulting in a fire in and around the burner tubes. This type of "FLASHBACK FIRE" can
cause serious grill damage and create an unsafe operating condition for the user.

• To reduce the chance of FLASHBACK FIRE you must clean the burner tubes before initial use, at least once a month
in the summer and fall (whenever spiders are active in your area), and if your grill has not been used for an extended
period of time. See “

• Never cover or wrap the cooking grids, bottom of the grill bowl, or grease tray with aluminum foil or any other material
that will absorb grease.

Burner Tubes and Burner Ports” (page 45) for instructions.

CORRECT PROPANE GAS TANK USE

• Propane gas grill models are designed for use with a standard 20 lb. Liquid Propane Gas (LP Gas) tank (sold
separately). Never connect your gas grill to a propane gas tank that exceeds this capacity. A tank of approximately 12
inches in diameter by 18-1/2 inches high is the maximum size propane gas tank to use. You must use an "OPD" gas
tank which offers a listed Overfill Prevention Device. This safety feature prevents the tank from being overfilled which
can cause a malfunction of the LP Gas tank.

• The propane gas tank must be constructed and marked in accordance with the Specifications for LP-Gas Cylinders of
the U.S. Department of Transportation (D.O.T.) or the National Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA-B339, Cylinders,
Spheres and Tubes for Transportation of Dangerous Goods; and Commission, as applicable.

• The propane gas tank must have a shutoff valve, terminating in an propane gas supply tank valve outlet, that is
compatible with a Type 1 tank connection device. The propane gas tank must also have a safety relief device that has
a direct connection with the vapor space of the tank.

• The tank supply system must be arranged for vapor withdrawal.

• The propane gas tank must have a collar to protect the tank valve.

• Never connect an unregulated propane gas tank to your gas grill. The gas regulator assembly supplied with your gas
grill is adjusted to have an outlet pressure of 11" water column (W.C.) for connection to an propane gas tank. Only use
the regulator and hose assembly supplied with your gas grill. Any replacement hose and regulator assembly must be
identical to those listed in the parts list of this User Manual as specified by the manufacturer.

• Have your propane gas dealer check the release valve after every filling to ensure it remains free of defects.

• Always keep the propane gas tank in the upright position.

• Do not subject the propane gas tank to excessive heat.

• Never store an propane gas tank indoors. If you store your gas grill in the garage, always disconnect the propane gas
tank first and store it safely outside.

• Propane gas tanks must be stored outdoors in a well-ventilated area and out of the reach of children.

• Disconnected propane gas tanks must not be stored in a building, garage, or any other enclosed area.

• The regulator and hose assembly can be seen after opening the right cabinet door and must be inspected before
each use of the grill. If there is excessive abrasion or wear or if the hose is cut, it must be replaced prior to using the
grill again.

• Any attempt to convert the grill from one fuel type to another is extremely hazardous and must be performed by a
qualified gas technician only, using a natural gas conversion kit purchased from TYTUS. Contact TYTUS Customer
Support for more information.

• Never light your gas grill with the lid closed or before checking to ensure the burner tubes are fully seated over the
gas valve orifices.

• Never allow children to operate your grill. Do not allow children or pets to play near your grill. Always supervise
children and pets if they are in the vicinity of the unit.

• Use of alcohol, prescription, or non-prescription drugs can impair your ability to properly assemble and safely operate
your grill.

• Keep a fire extinguisher readily accessible. In the event of an oil/grease fire, do not attempt to extinguish with water.
Use a type B extinguisher or smother with dirt, sand, or baking soda.

• In the event of rain, turn off the burners and gas supply. Wait for the grill to cool, and then place a cover on it.

• Do not leave the grill unattended when in use. Do not move the appliance when in use.

• Allow the grill to cool before moving or storing.

• Do not use your grill as a heater.

• This grill is not intended to be installed in or on recreational vehicles and/or boats.

• This grill is not intended for commercial use.

• Never use charcoal or lighter fluid in this grill. Never use lava rocks or wood chips.

• Please protect your grill with a grill cover when not in use. Only use the cover when the grill is in cold conditions and
when the grill is not hot.

WARNING

A) Do not store a spare propane gas tank under or near this appliance.
B) Never fill the tank beyond 80 percent full.
C) If the information in "(A)" and "(B)" are not followed exactly, a fire causing death or serious injury may occur.

WARNING

• Use your grill at least three feet away from any wall or surface.

• Use your grill three feet away from any combustible objects that can melt or catch fire such as vinyl or wood siding,
fences, overhangs (see diagram below), or any other sources of ignition, including pilot lights and live electrical
appliances.

• Do not use your grill under any combustible overhead construction.

• Never use your gas grill in a garage, porch, shed, breezeway, or any other enclosed area.

• In windy conditions, always position the front of the grill to face oncoming wind to reduce heat and smoke blowing in
your face and to prevent potential hazards to yourself and the grill.

NOTE ABOUT PROPANE GAS TANK EXCHANGE PROGRAMS

• Many retailers who sell grills offer you the option of replacing your empty propane gas 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 propane gas tank section of this
manual.

• Always keep new and exchanged propane gas tanks in an upright position during use, transit, or storage.

• Leak test new and exchanged propane gas tanks BEFORE connecting one to your grill. See “

(page 30) for instructions.
