damage the valve and cause a leak. Leaking
propane may result in an explosion, fire, severe
personal injury or death.
W Do NOT block holes in sides or back of grill.
W Never keep an LP gas cylinder in a hot car
or trunk. Heat will cause the gas pressure to
increase, which may open the relief valve and
allow gas to escape.
W 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.

combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids.
W CAUTION: Do NOT obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
W CAUTION: Check and clean burner / venturi tubes for insects and insect
nests. A clogged tube can lead to a fire.
W CAUTION: Attempting to light the burner with the lid closed may cause an
explosion.
1. Open lid.
2. Check for obstructions of airflow to the burners. Spiders, insects and webs can
clog the burner/venturi tube. A clogged burner tube can lead to a fire.
3. All control knobs must be in the “ OFF” position (Figure 3).
4. Connect LP gas tank per “Installing LP Gas Tank” section.
5. Turn LP gas tank valve to “OPEN”.
6. Push and turn control knob to
(HIGH). the burner should light. Repeat up to three

Turning Off
1. Turn LP gas tank valve to “CLOSED”.
2. Turn all control knobs clockwise to the “ OFF” position.
NOTE: A “poof” sound is normal as the last of the LP gas is burned.
3. Disconnect LP gas tank per “Disconnecting LP Gas Tank” section.
Controlling Flare-ups
W CAUTION: Putting out grease fires by only closing the lid is not possible.
1. If a grease fire develops, turn control knobs to the “ OFF” position and LP gas
tank valve “CLOSED”. Do NOT use water on a grease fire. This can cause
the grease to splatter and could result in serious burns, bodily harm or other
damage.
2. Do NOT leave grill unattended while preheating or burning off food residue on
(HIGH). If grill has not been cleaned, a grease fire can occur.
W WARNING: When cooking, fire extinguishing materials should be readily
accessible. In the event of an oil / grease fire, use type BC dry chemical fire
extinguisher or smother with dirt, sand or baking soda. Do NOT attempt to
extinguish with water.
Flare-ups are a part of cooking meats on a grill and add to the unique flavor of grilling.
Excessive flare-ups can over-cook your food and be dangerous.
Important: Excessive flare-ups result from the build-up of grease in the bottom of your grill.
If a grease fire occurs, close the lid AND turn the control knob(s) to “ OFF” until the
grease burns out. Be careful when opening the lid as sudden flare-ups may occur.
If excessive flare-ups occur, do NOT pour water onto the flames.
Minimize Flare-ups:
1. Trim excess fat from meats prior to cooking.
2. Cook high fat content meats on
(LOW) setting or indirectly.
3. Ensure that your grill is on a hard, level, non-combustible surface and the grease is
allowed to drain into grease receptacle.
