WARNING

FOR YOUR SAFETY

4. If odor continues, keep away from the appliance and immediately call your gas supplier or your fire department.

DANGER: Failure to follow the dangers, warning and cautions in this manual may result in serious bodily injury or death, or in a fire or an explosion causing damage

to property.

WARNING:

This grill is for outdoor use only, and shall not be used in a building, garage or any other

enclosed area. Do NOT operate, light or use this appliance within 8 feet of walls, structures or buildings. For residential use only. This grill is NOT for commercial use. This grill is safety certified for use in the United States and Canada only. Do not modify

for use in any other location. Modification will result in a safety hazard and will void

your warranty. This grill, from the factory, is for use with liquid propane (LP) gas. The natural gas

conversion kit model number VFK1000W-C may be used to convert your grill to natural

gas. The use of any other conversion kit is dangerous and will void your warranty. Installation and repairs should be done by a qualified service person. LP gas Characteristics:

a. LP gas is flammable and hazardous if handled improperly. Become aware of the

characteristics before using any LP gas product.

b. LP gas is explosive under pressure, heavier than air and settles and pools in low

areas.

c. LP gas in its natural state has no odor. For your safety, an odorant is added that

smells like rotten cabbage.

d. Contact with LP gas can cause freeze burns to skin.

Natural Gas ( NG) Characteristics:

a. NG is flammable and hazardous if handled improperly. Become aware of the

characteristics before using any NG product. b. NG is explosive under pressure, heavier than air and settles and pools in low areas. c. NG in its natural state has no odor. For your safety, an odorant is added that smells

like rotten cabbage. d. Contact with NG can cause freeze burns to skin.

Only LP tanks marked “propane” may be used. The LP gas supply tank must be constructed and marked in accordance with the

Specifications for LP gas Cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) or the National Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA-B339, Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for the Transportation of Dangerous Goods; and Commission.

LP gas tank must be arranged for vapor withdrawal. The LP gas tank must have a listed overfilling prevention device (OPD). Only use LP gas cylinders equipped with a cylinder connection device compatible with

the connection for outdoor cooking appliances. The LP gas tank must have a tank collar to protect the tank valve. Never use an LP gas tank with a damaged body, valve, collar or footing. Dented or rusted LP gas tanks may be hazardous and should be checked by your LP gas

supplier prior to use. The LP gas tank should not be dropped or handled roughly. Tanks must be stored outdoors out of the reach of children and must not be stored in

a building, garage or any other enclosed area. Your tank must never be stored where

temperatures can reach over 125°F. Do not insert any tool or foreign object into the valve outlet or safety relief valve. You

may damage the valve and cause a leak. Leaking propane may result in explosion, fire,

severe personal injury or death. Do not block holes in sides or back of grill. Never keep a filled LP gas tank in a hot car or car trunk. Heat will cause the gas

pressure to increase, which may open the relief valve and allow gas to escape. 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. Disconnect cylinder when not in use. Do not store a spare LP gas tank under or near this appliance. Never fill the tank beyond 80 percent full. A fire causing, serious injury or damage to property may occur if the above is not

followed exactly. Never attempt to attach this grill to the self-contained LP gas system of a camper trailer,

motor home or house. The use of alcohol, prescription or non-prescription drugs may impair the consumer’s

ability to properly assemble or safely operate the appliance. Strong odors, colds, sinus congestion, etc. may prevent the detection of propane. Use

caution and common sense when testing for leaks. Never use charcoal, lighter fluid, lava rocks, gasoline, kerosene or alcohol with this

product. Your grill has been checked at all factory connections for leaks. Recheck all

connections as described in the “Operating Instructions” section of the manual, as

movement in shipping can loosen connections. Check for leaks even if your unit was assembled for you by someone else. Do not operate if gas leak is present. Gas leaks may cause a fire or explosion. You must follow all leak-checking procedures before operating. To prevent fire or

explosion hazard when testing for a leak:

a. Always perform leak test before lighting the grill and each time the tank is

connected for use.

b. No smoking. Do not use or permit sources of ignition in the area while conducting a

leak test. c. Conduct the leak test outdoors in a well-ventilated area. d. Do not use matches, lighters, or a flame to check for leaks. e. Do not use grill until any and all leaks are corrected. LP: If you are unable to stop a leak, disconnect the LP gas supply. Call a gas appliance

serviceman or your local LP gas supplier. NG: If you are unable to stop a leak, turn off the main valve on the NG supply line. Call a gas appliance serviceman or your local NG supplier.
