LP GAS SAFETY AND CYLINDER CARE

LP Cylinder Removal, Transport and Storage

• NEVER store a spare LP cylinder under or near the appliance or in an enclosed area.

• Turn OFF all control knobs and LP cylinder valve. Turn coupling Nut counterclockwise by

hand only - do not use tools to disconnect. Loosen cylinder screw beneath bottom shelf or

disconnect other retention means, then lift LP cylinder up and out of cart. Install safety cap

onto LP cylinder valve. Always use cap and strap supplied with valve.

Failure to use Safety cap as directed may result in serious personal injury

and/or property damage.

• A disconnected LP cylinder in storage or being transported must have a safety cap installed

(as shown). Do not store an LP cylinder in enclosed spaces such as a carport, garage, porch,

covered patio or other building.

• Never leave an LP cylinder inside a vehicle which may become overheated by the sun.

• Do not store an LP cylinder in an area where children play.

LP Cylinder

The LP cylinder used with your grill must meet the following require-

ments:

Use LP cylinders only with these required measurements:

• 12” (30.5cm) (diameter) x 18” (45.7 cm) (tall) with 20 lb. (9 kg.) capacity maximum.

• LP cylinders must be constructed and marked in accordance with speciﬁcations for LP

cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) or for Canada, CAN/CSA-B339,

smelled.
