Turn all Burner Valves to the OFF position.
Inspeot the valve eonneetion port and regulator
assembly for damage or debris. Remove any
debris. Never use damaged or plugged equip­
ment.
Connect the regulator assembly to the tank valve
and HAND TIGHTEN nut clockwise to a full stop.
DO NOT use a wrench to tighten because it could
damage the Quick Coupling Nut and result in a
hazardous condition.
Open the tank valve 1/4 to 1/2 of a turn (coun­
terclockwise) and use a soapy water solution to
check all connections for leaks before attempting
to light your grill. See
"Checking for LP Gas
Leaks". If a leak is found, turn the tank valve off
and do not use your grill until the leak is repaired.
Check all connections for LP Gas Leaks
Never test for leaks with a flame. Prior to first use,
at the beginning of each season, or every time
your LP Gas tank is changed, you must check for
gas leaks. Follow these three steps:
□ Make a soap solution by mixing one part liquid
detergent and one part water.
□ Turn the grill Control Knobs to the full OFF
position, then turn the gas ON at source.
□ Apply the soap solution to all gas connections
indicated by the arrows. See diagram. If
bubbles appear in the soap solution the
connections are not properly sealed. Check
each fitting and tighten or repair as necessary.
CAUTION; When the appliance is not in use the gas
must be turned off at the tank.
Place dust cap on cylinder valve outlet whenever the
cylinder is not in use. Only install the type of dust
cap on the cylinder valve outlet that is provided with
the cylinder valve. Other types of caps or plugs may
result in leakage of propane.
If you have a gas leak that cannot be repaired
by tightening, turn off the gas at the source,
disconnect fuel line from your grill and call
1-800-4-MY-HOIVIE® or your gas supplier for repair
assistance.
