3. Repeat “Lighting” steps 2 and 3. 

Turning Off 

1. Rotate gas control knob to “OFF” position. Note: Burner will likely make a slight popping 

sound when extinguished. 

2. Disconnect LP-gas tank after use. 
    Rotate LP-gas tank to horizontal position, unscrew it counterclockwise until it is loose.
