LP Tank Exchange
• Many retailers that sell grills offer you the option of
replacing your empty LP tank through an exchange
service. Use only those reputable exchange companies
that inspect, precision fill, test and certify their tanks.
Exchange your tank only for an OPD safety
feature-equipped tank as described in the "LP Tank"
section of this manual.
• Always keep new and exchanged LP tanks in upright
position during use, transit or storage.
• Leak test new and exchanged LP tanks BEFORE
connecting to grill.
• 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.
