The L.P. gas cylinder must have a shut-off
valve terminating in a Type 1 L.P. gas-
cylinder-valve outlet. A Type 1 compatible
cylinder with a Type 1 cylinder valve has a
positive seating connection that does not
permit gas flow until a positive seal has been
obtained.
Have the gas dealer weigh the cylinder
after filling to ensure that the cylinder is not
overfilled.
DANGER:
a.) Do not store a spare L.P. gas cylinder
under or near this appliance.
b.) Never fill the gas cylinder beyond 80
percent full.
c.) If the information in (a.) and (b.) Is not
followed exactly, a fire causing serious
injury or death may occur.
The cylinder must be arranged for vapor
withdrawal. It must also include a collar to
protect the cylinder valve. A safety-relief
device having direct communication with the
vapor space of cylinder must be provided.
This will expel high-pressure gas if the
cylinder is overfilled or overheated.
All L.P. gas cylinders used with this
appliance shall be constructed and marked
in accordance with the specifications for L.P.
gas cylinders of the U.S. Department of
Transportation (DOT) or the National

Take These Instructions to the L.P. Gas Dealer
When using a cylinder exchange, be sure the
exchanged cylinder is a Type 1 cylinder; a 510
POL cylinder will not fit a Type 1 regulator.
The L.P. gas cylinder has a Type 1 cylinder
valve with a back-check module in its outlet
that will not permit gas to flow until an
evacuation device is installed. To purge the
L.P. gas cylinder, the back-check module must
be opened with an evacuation device.
FILLING AND PURGING
TYPE 1 L.P. GAS CYLINDERS
PURGING AND EVACUATION DEVICES
FOR L.P. GAS CYLINDER WITH TYPE 1
DANGER: Purging and filling of L.P. gas
cylinders must be performed by personnel who CYLINDER VALVES
have been thoroughly trained in accepted L.P.
gas industry procedures. Failure to follow this
instruction may result in explosion, fire, severe
personal injury or death.
A. Hose-end valve with a bleed port: Purging
can be accomplished using a hose-end valve
containing a bleed port, which also allows for
evacuation without the use of an adapter.
IMPORTANT: Purge new cylinders before
filling. This tank is easily filled with a standard
CGA 510 POL filling connection.
B. Hose-end valve without a bleed port:
When a hose-end valve does not have a bleed
port, a separate device must be used for
evacuation.
CGA-510 POL
C. Purging using a Type 1 connection: L.P.
gas cylinder evacuation can be accomplished
during each purging by using a Type 1
connection. The Type 1 valve outlet has 1-
5/16” external ACME right-hand thread that will
accept this connection.
CAUTION: After purging or filling an L.P. gas
cylinder, do not insert a POL plug into the
valve outlet. Insertion of this plug will prevent
the back-check from closing. Use ONLY the
provided cap and strap attached to the outlet.
Close the cylinder valve knob before returning
the cylinder to the customer.
Example A

Leak Testing
DANGER
Perform a leak test each time the gas
supply cylinder is connected to the regulator.
Leak test any time a part of the gas system
is replaced. Perform a leak test at least once
each year whether the L.P. gas supply
cylinder has been disconnected or not.
To prevent fire or explosion hazard:
· Do not smoke while performing a leak
test.
· Do not permit any sources of ignition
in the area when testing for leaks.
· Perform leak tests outdoors only.
· Never perform a leak test near a fire or
flame.
Have a dealer check the cylinder for
deterioration after 10 years, according to
DOT regulations. Immediately replace
cylinder if any is found.
How to Check the Fuel Supply System for
Gas Leaks
IMPORTANT! Inspect the gas supply hose
regularly. If there are cuts, excessive
abrasion or wear, replace the hose prior to
operating the appliance.
1. Mix a solution of equal parts mild
detergent or liquid soap and water.
2. Turn off the burner control knobs.
3. Turn the top knob of the fuel-supply
cylinder counterclockwise one rotation to
open.
Use only the hose replacement specified in
the parts list for your grill.
4. Apply the soap solution to all connections
of fuel-supply assembly.
If no soap bubbles appear, the grill is fine
for use.
If bubbles form at the connections, there is
a leak. In case of a leak, try tightening the
joint. If necessary, replace the faulty part with
a replacement part recommended by the
manufacturer.

Lighting Instructions
IGNITER LIGHTING SYSTEM
STEP 4. Go behind the grill and turn on the
fuel supply valve on the L.P. gas cylinder.
Open the valve only 1-1/2 turns.
The Igniter System consists of an igniter unit,
a gas-collector box, one ceramic electrode,
and lead wires. Gas is collected in the metal
collector box located at the burner. When the
igniter knob is turned, an electric spark is
created at the ceramic electrode. The gas is
then ignited by the spark.
To test: Make sure the L.P. gas cylinder is
shut off or disconnected. Watch the electrode
tip inside the gas collector while activating the
igniter. To avoid a possible shock, do not touch
the burner or metal parts on igniter system
while performing igniter test. A visible spark
should jump from the electrode. The spark gap
is set when the electrode is installed.
CAUTION: Do not stand with head or arms
over the grill.
STEP 5. To light using the igniter:
Push in and turn the left burner-control knob
counter-clockwise to the high (light) setting.
STEP 6. Immediately press the igniter button.
You will hear rapid clicks. Repeat if necessary.
The burner should light within 3-5 seconds.
STEP 7. If the burner fails to light properly,
turn the burner control knob off. Also turn off
the L.P. cylinder valve. Wait five minutes
before attempting to light the burner again.
This will allow time for released gas to
disperse.
If there isn't a spark, check the lead wires
and connections. The igniter wires should be
kept away from the grill bottom. Also check
that the ceramic electrode in the collector box
is not broken.
Sometimes dirt and rust at and around the
electrode can prevent an igniter spark. Clean
them with a degreaser or warm soapy water,
and dry. Remove rust from electrode tip and
metal surfaces by lightly sanding with an
emery cloth or fine-grain sandpaper.
HINT: If the burner does not light after trying
again, turn off burner-control knob, the L.P.
cylinder valve and try match lighting the grill
once the gas has cleared.
The igniter battery may be removed and
replaced by un-screwing the igniter button.

MATCH LIGHTING
CAUTION: Do not touch any hot grill parts.
The outside of the grill bottom becomes very
hot during use. It may be necessary to use
protective gloves.
IMPORTANT: The match lighting hole is
found under the front right corner of the grill
bottom. When match lighting the grill, use the
gas control knob on your RIGHT-HAND side
(closest to the match lighting hole).
HOW TO SHUT OFF THE GRILL
Repeat steps 1 to 4 of “Igniter Lighting
Instructions.”
STEP 1. Turn the burner-control knob(s) off.
The burner flame will go out.

counterclockwise to the high setting.
STEP 6. IMMEDIATELY strike a match and
position the burning match through match
lighting hole in the grill bottom. Extend the
flame near a burner port in the bottom edge of
the burner. The burner should light. (A match
holder is supplied in the hardware pack to hold
and extend the match into the burning
chamber.)
IMPORTANT: Always have the gas shut off at
the L.P. cylinder valve when the grill is not in
use. The L.P. cylinder has a leak detection
feature which will restrict the amount of gas
flow to the burner if the
tank shut-off valve
has not been
turned off
prior to the
next use.
To light the other side of the burner, press in
and turn the opposite control knob. The flame
will track around the burner. Allow grill to
preheat with the grill lid closed for five to ten
minutes before cooking.
