STORAGE

To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury or death:

· Store your LP gas grill in a cool dry place. Do not

store an LP gas cylinder in a space greater than 125

degrees Fahrenheit. Do not store an LP gas cylinder

in a building ,garage or any enclosed area.

· Do not store an LP gas cylinder indoors (empty or

filled). Disconnect the LP gas cylinder from the gas

grill and store it outdoors out of the reach of children.

The gas grill may then be stored indoors.

· To avoid an explosion, do not leave an LP gas

cylinder inside a vehicle that can become overheated

by the sun.

· Even though your LP gas cylinder may appear to be

empty, gas may still be present and the cylinder

should be transported and stored accordingly.

· Do not store a spare LP gas cylinder under or near

the LP gas grill.

· Always turn off the gas cylinder at the LP cylinder

valve when the gas grill is not in use.

1) Disconnect LP gas cylinder from grill and store outside, in

a dry, well-ventilated area, away from any sources of heat

or ignition. Re-cap LP cylinder valve with the Safety Cap.

2) Remove Burners and wrap with aluminum foil to prevent

insects from entering the burner holes. Store wrapped

Burners on top of cooking grid.

3) You may wrap the Cooking Grid and Flame Diffuser in

aluminum foil and place inside the Hood or store inside

your dwelling.

4) Place a grill cover over the grill and store the gas grill

outdoors if possible. It may be stored indoors only if the

LP cylinder is disconnected from the gas grill.

5) Before next use, remove aluminum foil and reinstall

Burners, Flame Diffuser, and Cooking Grids.

6) Before using the grill after periods of storage or non-use

(i.e. over winter), check your LP gas grill for gas leaks,

deterioration, proper assembly, and burner obstructions.

7) Periodically check and tighten all nuts, bolts, and screws.

Problem:

Possible Cause:

Solution:

Burner will not light

using the ignitor

Burner is not connected to

Valve.
Not pausing long enough

before clicking the Ignitor

No spark

LP gas cylinder is empty
LP Coupling nut is not fully

connected to regulator

LP Excess flow valve tripped

in regulator

Obstructions in burner

Electrode and burner are wet

Wire is loose or disconnected

Wire is shorting (sparking

electrode)

Make sure burner tube is over the gas nozzle. See How to Clean

the Burners #6 page 20: Re-install after cleaning.
When lighting the Burner, push-in and turn control panel knob

counter-clockwise to the high position. Pause 4 seconds, then

Push in Ignitor button several times so that it clicks each time.
Gas collector tab is bent (making too large or small of a gap

between electrode and tab). By hand, bend gas collector tab back

within a maximum of 3/16” gap to electrode. (See page 16 for

illustration).

Take LP gas cylinder to licensed LP gas supplier to be refilled
Tighten coupling nut by hand about one-half to three quarters

additional turn. Do not use tools.
Turn control knobs to “off” position and turn LP gas cylinder handle

clockwise until it stops. Wait five minutes. Relight LP gas grill. If

flame remains to be low, turn off gas at cylinder and grill.

Disconnect the regulator from the LP gas cylinder. Reconnect the

regulator to the LP gas cylinder. Perform a leak test. Relight grill.

This will reset the excess flow valve.
