Correct LP Gas Tank Use LP gas grill models are designed for use with a standard 20 lb. Liquid Propane Gas (LP gas) tank, not included in grill box. Never connect your gas grill to an LP gas tank that exceeds this capacity. A tank of approximately 12 inches in diameter by 18-1/2 inches high is the maximum size LP gas tank to use. You must use an "OPD" gas tank which offers a listed Overfill Prevention Device.
Figure 1 (Natural gas model only) IMPORTANT: your Kenmore Natural Gas Grill cannot be converted to use LP Gas. Attempting to do so is extremely hazardous and will also void the grill warranty. GAS WALL OUTSIDE WALL Your natural gas grill is designed to operate on natural gas only, at a pressure of 7" water column (W.C.) (1/4 psi or 1.75 kpa), regulated at the residential meter. Check with your gas utility company for local gas pressure and with your local municipality for building code requirements.

Indirect Cooking The indirect cooking method can also be used with the supplied Cooking Grids. To cook indirectly, the food should be placed on the left or right side of your grill with the Burner lit on the opposite side. Or place your food on the Secondary Cooking Rack mounted inside your grill bowl and light the 2 outer grill Burners. Either way, indirect cooking must be done with the Lid down.
