modify for use in any other location. Modification will result in a safety hazard. This grill is for use with liquid propane (LP) gas only. The conversion to or attempted use

of natural gas in this LP gas grill is dangerous and will your warranty. 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

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

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

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:

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. If you are unable to stop a leak, disconnect the LP gas supply. Call a gas appliance
