Gas Requirements and Connection
IMPORTANT: Cal Flame™ grills are manufactured to operate on either liquid propane (LP) or natural gas
(NG) and cannot be converted. To verify the grill’s operating fuel, check the serial number label in the back of
the chassis as you are looking at the grill from the front. Either LP or NG will be marked on the operating tab,
indicating the proper operating fuel. Attempting to convert Cal Flame™ grills from one fuel to another may
result in serious injury and will void the warranty coverage.
Always check the rating plate to make sure the gas supply you are hooking up to is the gas type the grill is
manufactured for.
If you do not have an updated ller valve on your existing propane tank, you will need to purchase one at your
local hardware store. Without it you will not be able to attach your tank to your Cal Flame™ grill or rell the
tank at your local propane rell station.
Leak Testing Procedure
Perform a leak test at least once a year whether the
gas supply cylinder has been disconnected or not. In
addition, whenever the gas cylinder is connected to
the regulator or whenever any part of the gas system
is disconnected or replaced, perform a leak test.
As a safety precaution, remember to always leak test
your grill outdoors in a well-ventilated area. Never
smoke or permit sources of ignition in the area while
doing a leak test. Do not use a ame, such as a
lighted match to test for leaks. Use a solution of soapy
water.
Prepare a leak testing solution of soapy water by
mixing in a spray bottle one part liquid soap to
one part water.
Make sure all the control knobs are in the OFF
position.
Turn on the gas.
On natural gas systems, turn the main feed
valve to the grill.
On LP systems, turn the cylinder valve knob
counter clockwise one turn to open.

Apply the leak-testing solution by spraying it
on joints of the gas delivery system. Blowing
bubbles in the soap solution indicates that a leak
is present.
Stop a leak by tightening the loose joint or by
replacing the faulty part with a replacement
part recommended by the manufacturer. Do
not attempt to repair the cylinder valve if it is
damaged. The cylinder must be replaced.
Turn all control knobs back to the full OFF
position.
If you are unable to stop a leak:
Turn all control knobs back to the full OFF
position.
Shut off the gas supply to the grill and release
pressure in the hose and manifold by pushing in
and turning any of the control valves one quarter
turn counter-clockwise.
On LP systems, remove the cylinder from the
grill.
Call an authorized gas appliance service
technician or an LP gas dealer.
Do not use the appliance until the leak is corrected.
