USE AND CARE DANGER • NEVER store a spare LP cylinder under or near the appliance or in an enclosed area. • Never fill a cylinder beyond 80% full. • If the information in the two points above is not followed exactly, a fire causing death or serious injury may occur. • An overfilled or improperly stored cylinder is a hazard due to possible gas release from the safety relief valve. This could cause an intense fire with risk of property damage, serious injury or death.
LP Tank Exchange Connecting Regulator To The LP Tank • Many retailers that sell grills offer you the option of replacing your empty LP tank through an exchange service. Use only those reputable exchange companies that inspect, precision fill, test and certify their cylinders. Exchange your tank only for an OPD safety feature-equipped tank as described in the "LP Tank" section of this manual. • Always keep new and exchanged LP tanks in upright position during use, transit or storage.
Leak Testing Valves, Hose and Regulator 1.Turn all grill control knobs to OFF. 2.Be sure regulator is tightly connected to LP tank. 3.Completely open LP tank valve by turning OPD hand wheel counterclockwise. If you hear a rushing sound, turn gas off immediately. There is a major leak at the connection. Correct before proceeding by calling Sears for replacement parts at 1-800-4-MY-HOME®.

WARNING For Safe Use of Your Grill and to Avoid Serious Injury: • Do not let children operate or play near grill. • Keep grill area clear and free from materials that burn. • Do not block holes in sides or back of grill. • Use grill only in well-ventilated space. NEVER use in enclosed space such as carport, garage, porch, covered patio, or under an overhead structure of any kind. • Do not use charcoal or ceramic briquets in a gas grill. • Use grill at least 3 ft. from any wall or surface. Maintain 10 ft.
WARNING Turn controls and gas source or tank OFF when not in use. CAUTION If ignition does not occur in 5 seconds, turn the burner controls OFF, wait 5 minutes and repeat the lighting procedure. If the burner does not ignite with the valve open, gas will continue to flow out of the burner and could ignite with risk of injury. Match Lighting ▲Do not lean over grill while lighting. 1. Open lid during lighting. 2. Place match into match holder (hanging on right back leg).
Cleaning the Burner Assembly CAUTION WARNING SPIDER ALERT! SPIDER ALERT! IMPORTANT: Always ensure that the venturi burner tubes are clean. A venturi burner tube has a narrow area in which spiders tend to build nests. Follow these instructions to clean and/or replace parts of burner assembly or if you have trouble igniting grill. 1. Turn gas off at control knobs and LP cylinder. 2. Remove cooking grates and heat diffusers. 3. Remove cotter pin from rear of burners. 4.
Indirect Cooking Poultry and large cuts of meat cook slowly to perfection on the grill by indirect heat. Place food over unlit burner(s); the heat from lit burners circulates gently throughout the grill, cooking meat or poultry without the touch of a direct flame. This method greatly reduces flare-ups when cooking extra fatty cuts because there is no direct flame to ignite the fats and juices that drip during cooking. 1 Burner Cooking Cook with direct or indirect heat. Best for smaller meals or foods.
