zNever operate this grill unattended. Keep children and pets away from grill at all
times.
zGrill is for outdoor use only. Grill should be operated on a flat, level
non-combustible surface. This grill is not intended to be installed in or on
recreational vehicles or boats.
zCarefully follow instructions in this manual for proper assembly and leak testing.
Do not use grill until leak test has been completed. If leak is detected at any
time, turn OFF gas supply and DO NOT use until leak source is corrected.
zLP bottle should be in upright position. Ensure proper LP bottle position prior to
lighting the grill.
zThe use of alcohol, prescription or non-prescription drugs may impair your ability
to properly assemble or safely operate the grill.
zGrill is not intended for commercial use.
zDo not operate this grill within 10’ (3m) of any other gas cylinder.
zDo not operate this grill within 25’ (7.5m) of any flammable liquids.
zIf a fire should occur, keep away from the grill and immediately call fire
department. Do not attempt to extinguish an oil or grease fire with water.
zDo not install or use grill within 36” (10 ft. recommended) of combustible
materials from back and sides of grill. Grill should not be operated in an
enclosed area. (carport, garage, porch, patio). We recommend your grill should
be situated at least 10 feet from buildings.
zCooking area should be kept clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline,
and other flammable vapors or liquids. Do not obstruct flow of combustion and
ventilation air.
zNever try to light grill with lid closed! Buildup of gases is very dangerous and
could cause an explosion.
Propane is highly volatile and even a 1lb cylinder contains enough gas to cause a
serious fire or explosion. To reduce chances of liquid or gas leak or explosion, always
follow these precautions when using propane.

Safety Precautions
zUse only 1lb (16.4oz) propane cylinders.
zThe LP gas cylinder used with the grill must be constructed and marked in
accordance with the specifications for LP gas cylinder of the U.S. Department of
Transportation (DOT) CFR 49, or the National Standard of Canada,
CAN/CSA-B339, cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for the Transportation of
Dangerous Goods.
zDo not attempt to refill any disposable propane cylinders.
zThe cylinder must be installed, transported and stored in an upright position and
should not be dropped or handled roughly.
zWhen the grill is to be stored indoors, the propane cylinder must be disconnected
from the grill.
zAlways attach or detach propane cylinder outdoor in a well-ventilated space.
zThe cylinder should never be transported or stored where temperature can reach
124°F ( 51°C).
If you smell gas:
1. Shut off gas to the grill.
2. Extinguish any open flame.
3. Open lid.
4. If odor continues, immediately call gas supplier or fire department.
Natural Hazards-Insects and Spiders
Aclogged tube can lead to a fire beneath the appliance. During shipment or storage, it
is possible that small insects and spiders could find
their way into the venturi tubes and make nests or
webs. This could block the flow of gas through the
venturi tube causing a smoky, yellowish flame, or
prevent a burner from lighting. It could even cause
the gas to burn outside the venturi tube, which could
seriously damage your grill. If this occurs, turn off the gas flow and wait for the grill to
cool. When the grill has cooled, remove the burner and clean out the venturi tube
with a brush or pipe cleaner. Re-install the burner and be sure that the venturi tube is

seated over the orifice located on the gas valves. Cleaning of the venturi tube should
be conducted periodically.
BEFORE USING PROPANE CYLINDER
1. Check cylinder and appliance seals. Never use with damaged or missing seals.
Discard cylinder if dust or rust particular are in valve area.
2. Turn control valve OFF before attaching cylinder. Attach only outdoors, in a well
ventilated area, away from flames, sparks or other sources of ignition.
BURNING PROPANE CAN MAKE CARBON MONOXIDE (CO), A COLORLESS,
ODORLESS GAS THAT CAN CAUSE DEATH. NEVER USE YOUR GRILL IN AN
ENCLOSED SPACE, SUCH ASATENT OR CAMPER. NEVER USE YOUR GRILL
AS A HEATER OR FOR ANY PURPOSE OTHER THAN GRILLING.
INSTALL CYLINDER
1. Remove cap from end of propane cylinder. Cap should be kept on cylinder when
not in use to prevent dirt and debris from entering regulator valve. Check end of
cylinder attachment for dirt and debris. Clean out if necessary.
2. Insert threaded end of cylinder into regulator / control valve and hand-tighten. Do
not use tools! Over-tightening can damage threads on regulator.
3. PERFORM ALEAK TEST. (Refer to page 5 for instructions on how to perform a
leak test).
Please note:
This table top propane grill has been designed to work effectively without the use of
lava rocks.
Leak Testing Regulator / Cylinder Connection – IMPORTANT!
During leak testing, keep grill away from open flames or sparks and do not smoke.
Grill must be leak tested outdoors in a well-ventilated area. Leak test must be
repeated each time propane cylinder is replaced or after storage.

HOW TO PERFORM LEAK TEST:
Use a clean paint brush and a 50/50 solution of mild soap and water. DO NOT USE
HOUSEHOLD CLEANING AGENTS.
1. Be sure control valve on regulator is in OFF position.
2. Brush soapy solution onto connection between cylinder and regulator.
If growing bubbles appear, there is a leak. Retighten connection and repeat
steps 1 and 2.
If you cannot stop a leak, remove cylinder from regulator and check for damaged
threads, dirt and debris on regulator and cylinder.
If threads are damaged on either regulator or cylinder, DO NOT use until
replaced. Also check to see if anything is obstructing the flow of gas at regulator
and cylinder openings. Remove any obstruction that may be found and repeat leak
test.
Before lighting – DO NOT use the grill if the odor of gas is present. The pressure
regulator supplied with the unit must be used. Never substitute regulators for those
supplied with the grill. If a replacement is necessary, contact the customer service
number provided to obtain a proper replacement. Screw the propane bottle firmly into
the regulator before operating the grill.
LID MUST BE OPEN WHEN LIGHTING GRILL BURNERS
TO LIGHT GRILL BURNERS:
zAlways keep your face and the body as far away from the grill as possible when
lighting.
zOpen the grill lid before lighting. Failure to open grill lid during the lighting
procedures could result in a fire or explosion that could cause serious bodily
injury, death, or property damage.

zInsert match or lighter through access hole next to the burner tube. Keep flame
next to burner while pushing and turning the control knob to the “HI” position on
regulator.
zIf the burner does not light in 4 seconds, turn knob to “OFF” and wait 5 minutes
before re-lighting, to allow any accumulated gas to dissipate. If the burner will not
light after several attempts, then it can be match lit.
zKeep your face as far away from the grill as possible and pass a lit, long stem
match through the grilling grid to the burner.
zPosition the match near the burner ports. Push and turn the control knob to “HI”.
If the burner does not light in 4 seconds turn the knob to “OFF”, wait 5 minutes
and re-lighting.
OPERATE GRILL BETWEEN “HI” AND “LO” SETTING ONLY. OPERATING GRILL
BELOW THE “LO” SETTING CAN RESULT IN A DANGEROUS FLAME-OUT AND
BUILD-UP OF GAS. IF FLAME-OUT OCCURS, TURN KNOB TO “OFF” FOR FIVE
MINUTES BEFORE RE-LIGHTING.
TO TURN OFF
zAfter cooking, turn the grill off by rotating the control knob to OFF. Control knob
should pop up in the OFF position. If control knob does not pop up, disconnect
cylinder to turn the grill off and replace the regulator.
zAllow grill to cool completely before handling.
TO STORE
Make sure the grill has completely cooled. Remove propane cylinder and replace
plastic cap on cylinder. Remove regulator from the grill to help keep dirt out of the
propane cylinder probe. To protect the regulator during storage and transport, the
regulator has been designed to be easily installed or removed from the grill. Before
use, screw the regulator assembly into the plate on the side of the grill. Tighten by
hand only – no tool required. When finished grilling, allow the grill to cool, then
disconnect propane cylinder from the regulator, and unscrew regulator assembly from
grill. Store regulator in a heavy plastic bag and place inside grill.
