Gas Requirements GENERAL INFORMATION Never attach an unregulated gas line to the appliance. Connection to an unregulated gas line can cause excessive heat or fire. Verify the type of gas supply to be used, either Natural Gas (N.G.) or Liquid Propane (L.P.), and make sure the serial plate agrees with that of the supply. Conversion kits are available separately for an additional cost which will enable you to convert your grill from L.P. to N.G. or to convert your grill from N.G. to L.P.
Gas Requirements L.P. GAS INSTALLATION Amana™Gas Grills that are set to operate with L.P. gas come with a high capacity hose and regulator assembly. (Note: Only use the pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied with the grill or a replacement pressure regulator and hose assemblies specified by Amana™). This assembly is designed to connect directly to a standard 20 lb. L.P. cylinder. L.P. Cylinders are not included with the grill. L.P. Cylinders can be purchased separately at an independent dealer.
Pre Operation Leak Testing GENERAL INFORMATION Although all internal gas connections on the grill are leak tested prior to shipment, a complete gas tightness check must be performed at the installation site due to possible shifting during shipment, installation or excessive pressure unknowingly being applied to the unit. Periodically check the whole system for leaks and immediately check the system if the smell of gas is detected. BEFORE TESTING Do not smoke while leak testing.
BEFORE LIGHTING Lighting the Grill burner between the flavor grids. Position the match near the burner ports and push and turn the control knob counter clockwise to the “ HIGH” position. (See Fig. 50-51) Important! Before Lighting: • Check the gas supply line for cuts, wear or abrasion. Note: If the grill will not light after several attempts see the trouble-shooting section of this manual. Turn the control knobs to the OFF position when not in use.
GRILL LOCATION Using the Grill Do not use the grill in garages, breezeways, sheds or any enclosed area. Never operate the grill in enclosed areas as this could lead to a carbon monoxide buildup, which could result in injury or death. Place the grill on a level surface. Avoid moving the grill while it is operation. NOTE: The grill will operate best if it is not facing directly into the wind.
Accessory Lighting ROTISSERIE LIGHTING Open the lid. Push and turn the control knob for the rotisserie counter clockwise to the “ HIGH” position. Wait 5 seconds. Then press and hold the electronic igniter button. You’ ll hear a snapping sound. If the burner does not light in 4 seconds, turn the control knob to OFF and wait 5 minutes before trying again. Once lit, turn the control knob to the desired setting. (See Fig.

DRIP TRAY Care and Maintenance The drip tray located below the grill, inside the cart, should be cleaned periodically to prevent heavy buildup of debris. Note: Allow the drip tray to cool before attempting to clean. Important: Do not leave the grill outside during inclement weather unless it is covered (cover sold separately). Rain water can collect inside of the grill, the grill cart or the drip tray if left uncovered.
PROBLEM Troubleshooting Your Grill SOLUTION Grill will not light with a match or low heat with dial set to "High" position. • Is your gas supply fully turned on? • If this is an L.P. grill is there gas in your tank ? Check your gas level. • If this is an L.P. grill, shut off gas supply, disconnect gas line at tank, reconnect the line to the tank. • Make sure all the knobs are in the off position, then open the gas supply valve on the L.P.
