• Is nontoxic, odorless and colorless when produced. For Your
Safety, LP gas has been given an odor (similar to rotten
cabbage) so that it can be smelled.
For Safe Use of Your Grill and to Avoid Serious
Injury:
• LP gas is highly flammable and may ignite unexpectedly
when mixed with air.
• Do not let children operate or play near grill.
• Keep grill area clear and free from materials that burn (i.e.
gasoline, propane, or any other flammable liquid or gas).
Propane Cylinder Use (1 lb. Disposable)
• Use only cylinder marked “Propane Fuel”.
• Cylinder 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.
• Do not block holes in bottom or back of grill.
• Check burner flames regularly.
• Never use regulator from this grill with any other LP
appliance.
• When cooking, the appliance must be on a level surface in
an area clear of combustible material.
• Size should be 4” diameter, 8” height, or 3” diameter, 10”
height.
• Use grill only in well-ventilated space. NEVER use in
enclosed space such as carport, garage, porch, covered
patio, or under an overhead structure of any kind.
• Save cylinder cap and reinstall when not in use.
• Cylinder supply system must be arranged for vapor
withdrawal. Gas cylinder must be upright in use.
• Do not use charcoal or ceramic briquets in a gas grill.
(Unless briquets are supplied with your grill.)
• This appliance is not intended for and should never be used
as a heater.
• Use grill at least 3 ft. from any wall or surface. Maintain
10 ft. clearance to objects that can catch fire or sources of
ignition such as pilot lights on water heaters, live electrical
appliances, etc..
Leak Testing (1 lb. Disposable) IMPORTANT!
• During leak test, keep grill away from open flames or sparks
and do not smoke. Grill must be leak tested outdoors in a well
ventilated area.
A
3 ft. (1m) minimum
10 ft. recommended
• Leak test must be repeated each time gas cylinder is replaced
or after storage.
Materials needed include clean paint brush and 50/50 soap and
water solution. Use mild soap and water.
Do not use
household cleaning agents. Damage to components can
result.
1. Be sure control knob on regulator is in "OFF" position.
2. Brush soapy solution onto connection between gas cylinder
and regulator at (A).

CAUTION
NATURAL HAZARD • SPIDERS
CAUTION
• Putting out grease fires by closing the lid is not
possible. Grills are well ventilated for safety
reasons.
• Do not use water on a grease fire. Personal injury
may result. If a grease fire develops, turn knobs
and LP cylinder off.
• Do not leave grill unattended while preheating or
burning off food residue on HI. If grill has not been
regularly cleaned, a grease fire can occur that may
damage the product.
FACT:
Sometimes spiders and other small insects climb
into the burner tubes attached to the burners. The
spiders spin webs, build nests and lay eggs. The
webs or nests can be very small, but they
are very strong and can block the flow
of gas. Clean burners prior to use after
storing, at the beginning of grilling season
or after a period of one month not being used.
Spider guards are on the air intakes in an effort to
reduce this problem, but it will not eliminate it! An
obstruction can result in a "flashback" (a fire in the
burner tubes). The grill may still light, but the obstruction
does not allow full gas flow to the burners.
Burner Flame Check
Light burner. Make sure burner stays
lit while rotating the control knob
from HIGH to LOW. Always check
flame prior to each use.
IF YOU EXPERIENCE THE FOLLOWING:
1. Smell gas.
2. Burner(s) will not light.
Cleaning The Burner Assembly
3. A small yellow flame from burner (should be blue).
4. Fire coming from around or behind control knob.
STOP!
1. Turn gas off at control knobs and LP cylinder.
2. Remove cooking grids and vaporizer tents.
3. Remove pal nuts on burners. Unscrew electrode and move
to the side to remove burner. NOTE: Do not pull electrode
out.
4. Under grill remove grease tray. Clean with soap and water.
5. Wipe ceramic electrode with rubbing alcohol and cloth.
6. Clean burners exterior with soap and water. Lay burners on
flat surface, insert garden hose (preferably with nozzle), into
burner tubes forcing water through tubes. Make sure water
comes out of every porthole. Open clogged portholes with a
thin wire. Shake out excess water and examine porthole.
Due to normal wear and corrosion some portholes may
become enlarged, if so replace burner. If any horizontal
cracks appear from porthole to porthole or large holes (other
than portholes) are found replace burner.
7. If grill is to be stored, coat burners lightly with cooking oil.
Wrap in protective cover to keep insects out. If not storing
use following steps.
VERY IMPORTANT: Burner tubes must engage valve
openings as shown (A).
8. Reattach burners and electrodes.
9. Reposition cooking grids and vaporizer tents. Place clean
grease tray into grill bottom.
10. Before cooking again on grill,
Immediately turn off gas at LP cylinder!
SOLUTION:
Wait for grill to cool.
Follow the “Cleaning the Burner Assembly” instructions.
Clean burners often. Use a 12” pipe cleaner to clean out
the burner tubes. You may also force a stream of water
from a hose nozzle through burner tubes to clean them.
General GrillCleaning
• Do not mistake brown or black accumulation of grease and
smoke for paint. Interiors of gas grills are not painted at the
factory (and should never be painted). Apply a strong solution
of detergent and water or use a grill cleaner with scrub brush
on insides of grill lid and bottom. Rinse and allow to
completely air dry.Do not apply a caustic grill/oven cleaner
to painted surfaces.
• Side Shelves: Wash with warm soapy water and wipe dry.
Do not use citrisol, abrasive cleaners, degreasers or a
concentrated grill cleaner on plastic side shelves. Damage to
and failure of shelves can result.
perform a “Leak Test” and
“Burner Flame Check”.
A
• Non-Stick Cooking Surface: Turn grill off before cleaning.
While still warm, pour a cup of water over cooking surface to
loosen grease and food particles and to speed cool-down.
Wipe cooking surface with a paper towel or sponge. Once
completely cool, cooking surface can be removed and washed
with warm soapy water or placed in dishwasher.

Storing Your Grill
How To Tell If Meat Is Grilled Thoroughly
• Clean cooking surface and grease container.
• When LP cylinder is connected to grill, store outdoors in well-
ventilated space and out of reach of children.
•Meat and poultry cooked on a grill often browns very fast on the
outside. Use a meat thermometer to be sure food has reached
a safe internal temperature, and cut into food to check for
visual signs of doneness.
• Cover grill if stored outdoors.
• Store grill indoors ONLY if LP cylinder is turned off and
disconnected, removed from grill and stored outdoors in well-
ventilated space and out of reach of children.
