5.
Inspect the valve connection port and regulator assembly.
Look for damage or debris. Remove any debris. Inspect
hose for damage. Never use damaged or plugged equip-
ment.
6.
When connecting the hose and regulator assembly to the
tank valve, hand tighten nut clockwise to a full stop. Do
not use a wrench to tighten because it could damage the
Quick Coupling Nut and result in a hazardous condition.

Open the tank valve fully (counterclockwise). Use a
soapy water solution to check all connections for leaks
before attempting to light your grill. See ”Checking for
Gas Leaks” on page 14. If a leak is found, turn the tank
valve off and do not use your grill until the leak is
repaired.

WARNING
A strong gas smell, or the hissing sound of gas indicates a
serious problem with your gas grill or the LP gas tank.
Failure to immediately follow the steps listed below could
result in a fire or explosion that could cause serious bodily
injury, death, or property damage.
Shut off gas supply to the grill.
Turn the Control Knobs to the
OFF
position.
Open grill lid.
Get away from the LP gas tank.
Do not try to fix the problem yourself..
If odor continues or you have a fire you cannot extin-
guish, call your fire department.
Do not call near the LP gas tank because your telephone is
an electrical device and could create a spark resulting in
fire and/or explosion.
NOTE:
The normal flow of gas through the regulator and
hose assembly can create a humming noise. A low volume
of noise is perfectly normal and will not interfere with opera-
tion of the grill. If humming noise is loud and excessive you
may need to purge air from the gas line or reset the regula-
tor excess gas flow device. This purging procedure should
be done every time a new LP gas tank is connected to your
grill. For help call the Customer Service Helpline for assis-
tance.
