tightness.
s When grill is not in use, turn off control knob and LP tank
valve.
s Never move grill while in operation or still hot.
s Use long-handled barbecue utensils and oven mitts to avoid
burns and splatters.
s The grease cup
must be attached to grease clip and emptied
after each use. Do not remove grease cup until grill has
completely cooled.
s If you notice grease or other hot material dripping from grill
onto valve, hose or regulator, turn off gas supply at once.
Determine the cause, correct it, then clean and inspect valve,
hose and regulator before continuing. Perform a leak test.
s The regulator may make a humming or whistling noise during
