Canada, CAN/CSA-B339, Cylinder, Spheres and Tubes for the transportation of dangerous
goods. Carefully read and follow the instruction and warning marking
on the LP Cylinders.
•Fill the LP cylinders with propane gas at reputable propane dealer. Never fill the cylinder
beyond 80 percent full. If this instruction is not followed exactly, a fire causing death or
serious injury may occur.

must be replaced prior to the outdoor cooking gas appliance being put into operation.
The replacement hose assembly shall be that specified by the manufacturer.
•Check the proper mounting of the LP cylinders. See section under `LP CYLINDERS`.
•Perform the mandatory leak test, see section under `LEAK TEST`, before the first use of
the grill, after storing the grill for a long time, after transporting the grill and after filling the
LP tanks.

LIGHTING PROCEDURES
If the burner flame goes out while the grill is operating, always turn gas control knobs
to the `OFF` position by turning clockwise until a positive stop is felt and wait 5
minutes before attempting to re-light the grill.
Read the safety instructions in previous sections before lighting.
•Turn both control knobs to the `OFF` position by turning clockwise until a positive stop is
felt. See the picture representation below.
•Turn one LP tank gas valve completely counter-clockwise to open gas supply to one side
of the grill.
•Light one side of the grill at a time.
•Immediately place a lighted match through one lighting hole underneath the center of the
grill. There are two lighting holes. Make sure to place the match at right hole, nearest the
control in use.
•If burner fails to light, turn control knob to `OFF` position by turning clockwise until a
positive stop is felt and wait 5 minutes for unburned gases to clear before attempting to
light grill again.
Forcing control knobs will damage valves.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
•Inspect the grill regularly to make sure that all parts are functioning properly.

PROCEDURES’. If the flames are not steady with blue body and yellow tips and
continuous along both sides of each burner, TURN OFF at the LP-gas tank and consult a
gas engineer.
•Replace all broken or worn parts.

must be replaced immediately. The replacement hose assembly must be that specified
by the manufacturer. Refer to the last page of this manual.
•Light the appliance, after reading the LIGHTING PROCEDURES section of these
instructions. The burners should light immediately, and be viewed from both sides to
exhibit blue flames with occasional yellow tips. These should extend along the full length
of the single burner in each fire box.
•Replacement parts are available from the manufacturer, through your distributor. Refer to
the contact details on the last page if experiencing difficulty.
STORAGE
