Using Your Outdoor Grill
Inspect the 20 lb LP Gas Fuel Tank Supply Hose
Inspect the gas pressure regulator/hose assembly before each
use.
1. Open the right-hand drawer and slide 20 lb LP gas fuel tank
out.
2. Inspect the entire gas pressure regulator/hose assembly for
cuts, abrasions, or excessive wear.
3. If necessary, replace the gas pressure regulator/hose
assembly before using the grill.
Contact the dealer and use only replacement hoses specified for
use with the grill.
Check the Drip Tray Pans
Open the drip tray and check the drip pans for grease and other
liquids. Clean the drip tray and pans often to avoid grease and
other liquid buildup.
Water can build up in the drip tray and pans if the grill is not
covered when not in use.
See Drip Tray in the “General Cleaning” section for emptying and
cleaning the drip tray and pans.
The drip tray must be in place and pushed all of the way in when
using the grill.
Prepare the Gas Supply
1. Open the hood completely. Do not light burners with the hood
closed.
2. Make sure the control knobs are all turned to the OFF
position.
Turn the Gas Supply On
1. For freestanding outdoor grills using a 20 lb LP gas fuel tank:
Slowly open the 20 lb LP gas fuel tank valve.
NOTE: If flow limiting device activates, your grill may not
light. If your grill does light, the flames will be low and will not
heat properly. Turn 20 lb LP gas fuel tank valve and all control
knobs off and wait 30 seconds. After shutting off the 20 lb LP
gas fuel tank, very slowly open tank valve and wait 5 seconds
before lighting.
2. For outdoor grills using gas supply source other than 20 lb LP
gas fuel tank:
Open the manual shutoff valve in the gas supply line. The
valve is open when the handle is parallel to the gas pipe.
