CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 - WARNING
The burning of gas cooking fuel generates toxic by-products, which are on the list of substances
which are known by the State of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm. California law
requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances. To minimize
exposure to these substances, always operate this unit according to the use and care manual,
ensuring you provide good ventilation when cooking with gas. This warning is issued pursuant to
California Health & Safety Code Sec. 25249.6.
PORTABLE LP GAS CYLINDERS
Use only a standard 20 lb. (9.1kg) liquid propane (LP) gas cylinder - 12.25” diam. X 18.25” H
(31cm X 47cm) which features an Overfill Protection Device. The cylinder must be installed in
the upright position. Do not use a dented or rusty LP cylinder as it may be hazardous and should
be checked by your LP supplier. Never use a cylinder with a damaged valve. Never move or alter
the gas fittings. Check the expiration date on the cylinder collar as well. Do not refill an expired
cylinder, it must be replaced. If you buy refilled (exchange) LP cylinders, check this date as well.
The LP gas cylinder must be constructed and marked in accordance with the specifications for
LP gas cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT). The cylinder must be provided
with a shut off valve terminating in an LP gas supply cylinder valve outlet specified, as applicable,
for connection type QCC1 in the standard for compressed gas cylinder valve outlet and inlet
connections ANSI/CGA-V-I.
Certain liquid propane dealers may fill LP cylinders for use in the grill beyond cylinder filling
capacity. This “overfilling” may create a dangerous condition due to a build-up of excess pressure.
As a safety device, there is a pressure relief valve which will vent propane gas vapor to relieve this
excess pressure. This vapor is combustible and therefore can be ignited. To reduce this danger,
you should take the following safety precautions:
1. When you have your cylinder filled, be sure you tell the supplier to fill it to no more than 80%
of its total capacity.
2. If you own or use a spare cylinder, you should NEVER store it near or under the grill/cart unit
or burner box, or near any other ignition or heat source (like a water heater or furnace).
IF THE INFORMATION IN 1 AND 2 ABOVE IS NOT FOLLOWED EXACTLY, A FIRE
CAUSING DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY MAY OCCUR.
3. The LP cylinder must be disconnected and stored OUTSIDE in a well-ventilated area, out of
the reach of children.
4. Do not store a full cylinder in direct sunlight.
LOCATING AND ASSEMBLING THE GRILL
When determining a suitable location for your grill, take into account concerns such as exposure
to wind, rain, sprinklers, proximity to traffic paths, and keeping any gas supply line runs as short
as possible.
Locate the grill only in a well-ventilated area. Never locate the grill in a building, garage,
breezeway, shed or other such enclosed areas without an approved ventilation system. Never
locate the grill over, under, or next to unprotected combustible construction.
During heavy use, the grill will produce a lot of heat and smoke. The grill is designed to take in
cool air at the front control panel area, and send the combustion products and smoke out the
exhaust gap at the rear of the hood. It is important to maintain this flow at all times. Using the
grill in windy areas can disrupt this proper flow and cause damage to your grill, or result in burn
hazards to the user. See Fig. 1 for details.
When installing a grill or other gas appliance into an enclosure (island), the enclosure must be
constructed with ventilation openings to avoid accumulation of gas should there be a leak. See
the INSTALLATION section of this manual for details.
Ensure all packaging, straps, etc. have been removed from the grill. Remove any tie-down wires
from the burners.
Your Hestan grill has provision for mounting onto a mobile cart if you choose to do so. Contact
your Hestan dealer for the appropriate cart for your grill. If your grill is mounted on a cart,
engage the brakes on the casters to prevent movement of the cart.
