The cylinder must also be equipped with:
A shut-off valve terminating in a Type 1 gas cylinder valve outlet.
A Type 1 valve that prevents gas flow until a positive seal is obtained.
An arrangement for vapor withdrawal.
A collar to protect the cylinder shut-off valve.
A safety relief device having direct communication with the vapor space of the cylinder.
A listed over-filling prevention device (OPD).
FILLING THE LP GAS CYLINDER (TANK):
WARNING
Allow only qualified licensed LP gas dealers to properly fill or repair your LP gas cylinder.
New tanks should be purged prior to filling; inform LP gas dealer if you are using a new tank.
DO NOT allow the cylinder to be filled beyond 80% capacity. Over-filled tanks can create a dangerous
condition. Over-filled tanks can build up pressure and cause the relief valve to expel propane gas vapors. The
vapor is combustible and if it comes in contact with a spark source or flame an explosion causing severe burns,
bodily harm, or death could occur.
Always use a protective cylinder cap when grill is not connected to cylinder.
If you exchange a cylinder with a qualified exchange program, the new cylinder must have a Type 1 valve and
an over-filling prevention device (OPD)
Inspect the propane tank valve rubber seal for cracks, wear or deterioration prior to use. A damaged rubber
seal can cause a gas leak, possibly resulting in an explosion, fire or severe bodily harm.
LP GAS CYLINDER (TANK) RUBBER SEAL INSPECTION:
Inspect the propane tank valve rubber seal for
cracks, wear or deterioration prior to use.
A damaged rubber seal can cause a gas leak, possibly

Inspection should be done each time the propane
tank is connected to the grill, has been refilled, exchanged
or has not been used for more than 60 days.
Do not use a propane tank with a damaged rubber
seal. Exchange the tank or have the rubber seal
replaced at a qualified propane filling station.
