Correct LP Gas Tank Use
LP gas grill models are designed for use with a standard 20 lb. (9 kg) liquid propane gas tank, not included with the grill. Never
connect your gas grill to an LP gas tank that exceeds this capacity.
NOTICE
The normal flow of gas through the regulator and hose assembly can create a humming noise. A low volume of
noise is perfectly normal and will not interfere with operation of the grill. If the humming noise is loud and excessive you may
need to purge air from the gas line or reset the regulator excess gas flow device. This purging procedure should be done every
time a new LP gas tank is connected to your grill.
Visually check the burner flames prior to each use. The flames should look like this picture. If they do not, refer to
Troubleshooting in this manual.
Preventing Flashbacks
C AUTION
Beware of flashbacks.
Spiders and small insects occasionally spin webs or make nests in the grill burner tubes during transit and warehousing. These
webs can lead to gas flow obstruction, which could result in a fire in and around the burner tubes. This type of fire is known as a
"flashback" and can cause serious damage to your grill and create an unsafe operating condition for the user.
Although an obstructed burner tube is not the only cause of a flashback it is the most common cause.
To reduce the chance of a flashback, you must clean the burner tubes before assembling your grill, and at least once a month
in late summer or early fall when spiders are most active. Also perform this burner tube cleaning procedure if your grill has not
been used for an extended period of time. A clogged tube can lead to a fire beneath the grill.
