STORING PROPANE CYLINDERS:
1. 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.
2. Store all propane cylinders outdoors in a well-ventilated area.
3. Do not store cylinders in direct sunlight or near a source of heat or combustion.
4. Propane cylinders must be REMOVED from your grill; when the grill is to be stored indoors.
5. Keep all propane tanks out of reach of children.
6. If your grill is stored outside, the propane tank may be left connected to the grill. Turn off propane tank valve
when grill is not in use.
INSTALLING & CONNECTING A PROPANE CYLINDER TO THE GRILL:
1. Make sure tank valve is in its full off position (turn clockwise to stop).
2. Check tank valve to ensure that is equipped with external (male) threads (i.e. QCC-1 type connecter).
3. Make sure all burner knobs are in their off position.
4. Remove the protective dust cap from the cylinder valve. Always reuse dust cap when storing a cylinder.
5. Inspect valve connection port and regulator; look for any damage or debris. Inspect hose for damage. Never
attempt to use damaged or plugged cylinders. Contact your local propane gas dealer for repair.
6. Attach the Propane Hose and Regulator by hand-tightening the black plastic Quick Coupling Connecter (QCC)
nut clockwise to a positive stop. Do not use a wrench to tighten as this may damage the nut and cause leaks.
7. Open tank valve SLOWLY (counterclockwise) until fully open. Use a soapy water solution to check all
connections for leaks before lighting grill. If a leak is found DO NOT use the grill. Turn gas off and call a
professional gas fitter to repair the leak.
DISCONNECTING PROPANE CYLINDER:
1. Turn all the grill knobs to off.
2. Turn the tank valve off fully (turn clockwise to stop).
3. Detach the regulator from tank valve by turning the black (QCC) nut counterclockwise.
Install the protective cap back onto the threads of the propane cylinder valve.
4.
