If “growing” bubbles appear do not use or move the LP
tank. Contact an LP gas supplier or your
re department!
LP Tank Exchange
• Many retailers that sell grills offer you the option of
replacing your empty LP tank through an exchange
service. Use only those reputable exchange companies
that inspect, precision ll, test and certify their tanks.
Exchange your tank only for an OPD safety
feature-equipped tank as described in the “LP Tank”
section of this manual.
• Always keep new and exchanged LP tanks in upright
position during use, transit or storage.
• Leak test new and exchanged LP tanks BEFORE
connecting to grill.
• Place dust cap on cylinder valve outlet whenever the
cylinder is not in use. Only install the type of dust cap on
the cylinder valve outlet that is provided with the cylinder
valve. Other types of caps or plugs may result in leakage
of propane.
LP Tank Leak Test
For your safety
• Leak test must be repeated each time LP tank is
exchanged or relled.
• Do not smoke during leak test.
• Do not use an open ame to check for gas leaks.
• Griddle must be leak tested outdoors in a
well-ventilated area, away from ignition sources such
as gas red or electrical appliances. During leak test,
keep griddle away from open ames or sparks.
• Use a clean paintbrush and a 50/50 mild soap and
water solution. Brush soapy solution onto areas
indicated by arrows in gure below. Leaks are
indicated by growing bubbles.
Connecting Regulator To The LP Tank
1. LP tank must be properly secured onto griddle.
(Refer to assembly section.)
2. Turn all control knobs to the OFF position.
3. Turn LP tank OFF by turning OPD hand wheel
clockwise to a full stop.
4. Remove the protective cap from LP tank valve.
Always use cap and strap supplied with valve.
Do not insert a POL transport
plug (plastic part with external
threads) into the Type 1 tank
valve outlet. It will defeat the
Safety Relief Valve feature.
5. Hold regulator and insert
nipple into LP tank valve.
Hand-tighten the coupling nut,
holding regulator in a straight line
with LP tank valve so as not to
cross thread the connection.
Do not use household cleaning agents.
