LP GAS CYLINDER (TANK) RUBBER SEAL INSPECTION:
•
Inspect the propane tank valve rubber seal for cracks, wear
or deterioration prior to use. A damaged rubber seal can
cause a gas leak, possibly resulting in an explosion, fire or
severe bodily harm.
•
Inspection should be done each time the propane tank is
connected to the grill, has been refilled, exchanged or has
not been used for more than 60 days.
•
Do not use a propane tank with a damaged rubber seal.
Exchange the tank or have the rubber seal replaced at a
qualified propane filling station.
INSTALLING THE LP GAS CYLINDER (TANK) ONTO THE GRILL:
1. Check that the cylinder valve is closed by turning the knob clockwise. Inspect cylinder valve rubber seal for
cracks or deterioration. Do not use propane tank with damaged seal as a gas leak may occur.
2. Place the cylinder into the tank holder in the bottom of cabinet.
3. Orient the cylinder such that the valve opening faces the left side of the grill, and the hose is not kinked or
damaged.
4. Fully tighten the tank retention screw on the side of tank holder to secure tank.
