PROPANE GAS SAFETY
• Your propane gas grill (models GRL****LP) is designed to operate on propane
gas only at a pressure regulated at 11 inches water column (WC) when equipped
with the correct propane orices on the valves and a propane regulator on the
supply line.
• EdgeStar LP grills are designed to be used with a standard 20 lb. (9.1kg)
Department of Transportation (DOT) approved LP cylinder. No tanks larger than
20 lbs. are to be used. The tank must be marked in accordance with the latest
DOT specication for LP gas tanks: Specications for LP gas Cylinders (DOT
CFR49).
• Burners must be inspected and cleaned before each use.
!
Beware of Spiders
Spiders and small insects occasionally spin webs or make nests
in the burners during warehousing, transit, and/or after long period
of not using the grill. These webs can lead to a gas ow obstruction, which
could result in a re in and around the burner tubes. This type of re is known
as “ashback” and can cause serious damage to your grill and create an unsafe
operating condition for the grill user. Although an obstructed burner tube is not the
only cause of “ashback,” it is the most common cause. Frequent inspection of the
burners is necessary.
!
WARNING:
• Do not store a spare LP gas cylinder under or near this appliance.
• Never ll the cylinder beyond 80 percent full.
• If the information above is not followed exactly, a re causing death or serious
injury may occur.
!
CAUTION:
• Never store an LP gas cylinder inside a building or in the vicinity of any gas-
burning appliance.
• Always keep LP gas cylinders fastened in an upright position.
• Never connect an unregulated LP gas cylinder to the grill.
• Do not subject LP gas cylinders to excessive heat.

Propane Gas Safety

Natural Gas Safety
NATURAL GAS SAFETY
• Your natural gas grill (models GRL****NG) is designed to operate on natural gas
only at a pressure regulated at 4 inches water column (WC) when equipped with
the correct natural gas orices on the valves and a natural gas regulator on the
supply line.
• Burners must be inspected and cleaned before each use.
!
Beware of Spiders
Spiders and small insects occasionally spin webs or make nests
in the burners during warehousing, transit, and/or after long period
of not using the grill. These webs can lead to a gas ow obstruction, which
could result in a re in and around the burner tubes. This type of re is known
as “ashback” and can cause serious damage to your grill and create an unsafe
operating condition for the grill user. Although an obstructed burner tube is not the
only cause of “ashback,” it is the most common cause. Frequent inspection of the
burners is necessary.
!
WARNING:
• Never connect the grill to an unregulated natural gas supply.
• Check with your gas company or with local building codes for instructions on
how to set up a proper gas supply line.
• Use a licensed and knowledgeable installer to connect the gas lines to your grill.
• Pipe sealing compound or pipe thread tape that is suitable for use with natural
gas must be used on all male pipe thread. Apply compound or tape to at least the
rst three threads when making the connection.
• The grill must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its
individual manual shuto󰀨 valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply
line at test pressures less than or equal to ½ PSI (3.5 kPa).
• Turn o󰀨 your gas grill when the gas supply is being tested at low pressures. This
appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its
individual valve.
