Natural Gas Safety Instructions
Figure 1 (Natural gas model only)
IMPORTANT: your Kenmore Natural Gas Grill can*
not be converted to use LP Gas. Attempting to do
so is extremely hazardous and will also void the grill
warranty.
• Your natural gas grill is designed to operate on
natural gas only, at a pressure of 7" water column
(W.C.) (1/4 psi or 1.75 kpa), regulated at the
residential meter. Check with your gas utility
company for local gas pressure and with your
local municipality for building code requirements.
If your residential gas line pressure has not been
regulated to 7" W.C., contact your local gas utility
company for professional assistance.
•
It is recommended that a Shutoff Valve be installed
at the gas supply source outdoors. Install at a point
after the gas pipe exits the outside wall and before
the quick-disconnect hose, or install it at the point
before the gas line piping enters the ground.
See Fig. 1.
•
Pipe sealing compound or pipe thread tape resis
tant to the action of natural gas must be used on all
male pipe threads when making the connection.
•
Disconnect your gas grill from fuel source when
the gas supply is being tested at high pressures.
This gas grill and its individual shutoff valve must
be disconnected from the gas supply pipe system
during any pressure testing of that system at
pressure in excess of 1/2 psi (3.5kpa).
