Make sure the regulator is properly connected to the LP
gas cylinder.
To open the cylinder valve: turn handwheel counterclock-
wise.
If you hear a rushing sound, immediately turn off the
cylinder valve. This sound means there is a major leak at
the connection. Correct the problem before proceeding.
Using a clean paint brush and a 50/50 mixture of mild
soap and water, brush soapy solution over all the con-
nections and fittings on the grill.
“Growing” bubbles indicate a leak. Close the cylinder
valve then retighten all connections.
NOTE: If leaks cannot be stopped, do not try to repair.
Call for replacement parts.
If you are not using the grill immediately after the leak test,
close the cylinder valve by turning the valve clockwise).
STEP 16: TESTING THE LP GAS CYLINDER
See Figure 25.
Turn the control knobs on the control panel off, turn off
the LP gas cylinder valve, and disconnect the regulator
from the cylinder.
Remove the LP gas cylinder from inside the cabinet.
Using a clean paint brush and a 50/50 mixture of mild
soapand water, brushsoapy solutionover areas indicated
by arrows.
“Growing” bubbles indicate a leak. Do not use or
move the gas cylinder. Contact a gas supplier or the fire
department!
If you see, smell, or hear the hiss of escaping gas from
the liquid propane cylinder:

recommended by the manufacturer of this grill. The use
of attachments or accessories not recommended can
result in serious personal injury.
SAFETY TIPS FOR USING THE GRILL
Before opening the LP gas cylinder valve, check the
coupling nut for tightness and perform a leak test.
Trim excess fat from meat to reduce flare ups from drip-
pings.
When grill is not in use, turn off all control knobs and the
cylinder valve.
Do not move grill during cooking or while the grill is hot.
To avoid burns and splatters while cooking and the grill
is hot, use long-handled utensils and oven mitts.
Do not use the grill if the grease tray and grease cup are
not clean and properly installed.
Once the grill has cooled, clean promptly.
Do not let grease or hot material drip from the grill onto
the valve, hose, or regulator. Correct the problem before
use.
If the regulator frosts, immediately turn off the grill and
cylinder valve. This indicates a problem with the LP gas
cylinder and it should not be used. Return the cylinder
to the supplier.
Do not leave the grill unattended while preheating
or burning off food residue. If the grill has not been
regularly cleaned as instructed, a grease fire can occur.
Never use water on a grease fire.
Perform a burner flame check before each use (see the
Maintenance section).

OPERATION
COOKING/GRILLING TIPS
The best oils to use when grilling meats are high-temper-
ature oils (i.e., peanut, canola, safflower, and cottonseed
oils).
Dry off meat prior to grilling. Dry meat browns; wet meat
steams.
Grill with the hood down.
Keep grates clean. A clean grate is less likely to be sticky
and will last longer.
Clean the hood and inside the firebox often. A grease
build-up is a fire hazard and adds unwanted flavors to
your fresh food.
Before lighting the burners, spray grates with non-stick
spray to prevent food from sticking.
Always preheat the grill 10–15 minutes prior to use.
Before you start grilling, organize the food by cooking
technique, required cooking time, and grilling area re-
quired.
Sauces containing sugars and fats can cause flare-ups
and burn your food. Apply these sauces only in the last
10 minutes of cooking.
Marinades and rubs enhance the flavor of food. A dry rub
or liquid marinade can be used prior to cooking.
FOOD SAFETY
Wash hands, utensils, and surfaces with hot soapy water
before and after handling raw meat.
Keep raw meat separate from ready-to-eat foods.
Use a clean platter and utensils when removing cooked
food from the grill.
Cook meat and poultry thoroughly to kill bacteria.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure proper internal tem-
perature of meat.
USDA Recommended Safe Minimum Internal Tempera-
tures of Food:
• 145°F for beef, veal, lamb, steaks, and roast
• 145°F for fish
• 160°F for ground pork, beef, veal, and lamb
• 160°F for pork
• 160°F for egg dishes
• 165°F for turkey, chicken, and duck (whole, pieces,
and ground)
Refrigerate prepared and leftover foods promptly.
