DANGER
• DO NOT insert any foreign objects into the valve outlet. You
may damage the valve. A damaged valve can cause a leak,
which could result in explosion, fire, severe personal injury
or death.
WARNING
• Cylinders must be stored outdoors out of the reach of
children and must not be stored in a building, garage or
any other enclosed area (Fig. 2).
Cylinder Specifications
• Any L.P. gas supply cylinder used with this grill must be
approximately 12 inches diameter and 18 inches high. The
maximum fuel capacity is 80% and is approximately 20 pounds
of propane.
• The maximum weight of a properly filled cylinder will be
approximately 38 pounds (47.7 lbs. nominal water capacity).
• The L.P. cylinder must have a shut-off valve terminating in a
Type 1 L.P. gas cylinder valve outlet (see item [F], Fig. 1).
• A Type 1 compatible cylinder with a Type 1 cylinder valve has a
back-check valve which does not permit gas flow, until a
positive seal has been obtained.
• The cylinder must be arranged in an upright position 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 over filled or overheated
which could result in fire or explosion.
• 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 Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA-B339,
Cylinders
, Spheres and
Tubes for Transportation of Dangerous
Goods; and Commission, as applicable; and shall be provided
with a listed overfilling prevention device, and a cylinder
connection device compatible with the connection for outdoor
cooking appliances.
• Read labels on the L.P. Gas Supply Cylinder.
• New cylinders are always shipped empty for safety.
• Allow only qualified L.P. gas dealers to fill or repair your L.P. gas
supply cylinder.
• Inform the gas dealer if it is a new or used cylinder to be filled.
• Caution the gas dealer not to overfill the cylinder.
• After filling, have the gas dealer check for leaks and to see that
the relief valve remains free to function.
CAUTION
Have the gas dealer weigh the cylinder after filling to ensure
that the cylinder is not over filled.
The pressure regulator and hose assembly with the Type 1 fitting
supplied with the appliance must be used. Do not use another
hose and regulator assembly other than the one supplied with the
grill or a Coleman® replacement pressure regulator assembly. The
pressure regulator and hose assembly provided is factory set at
an outlet pressure of 11 inches water column (1/2 psi).
• Keep the small vent hole in the regulator clean of dirt and debris
(see item [G], Fig. 1).
• Consult your L.P. gas dealer if you think the regulator is not
working properly.
WARNING
• DO NOT attempt to adjust the regulator as this could
create a situation causing personal injury or property
damage.
WARNING
During assembly of the grill and when attaching or replacing
the L.P. gas cylinder, insure that the gas supply hose is free
of kinks and/or damage and is at least 3 inches away from
hot surfaces such as the grill housing.

Transporting the Cylinder
• Transport only one cylinder at a time.
• Transport the cylinder in an upright and secure manner with a
control valve turned off and the cap in place.
• DO NOT transport the cylinder in the passenger compartment,
unless you have an open window ventilation.
• DO NOT leave the cylinder in direct sunlight or in a high heat area
such as a closed car trunk. High heat areas could cause the relief
valve to vent gas.
• Use a cylinder cap on the cylinder valve outlet during transport
and when the cylinder is not connected to the grill.
• Keep the cylinder valve closed when not in use.
• Take the cylinder directly home after it has been filled.
The Type 1 connection system has the following features:
1. The system will not allow gas to flow until a positive connection has
been made.
NOTE: The cylinder control valve must be turned off before any
connection is made or removed.
2. The system has a thermal element that will shut off the flow of gas
in the event of a fire.
3. The system has a flow limiting device which, when activated, will
limit the flow of gas to 10 cubic feet per hour.
4. NEVER use grill without leak testing this connection.
