This model has a 12’ hose with a male coupling plug that will allow you to attach your
barbecue to your residential gas line.
WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND CONTACTING A CERTIFIED GAS-TECHNICIAN TO
INSTALL YOUR NATURAL GAS UNIT.
Connecting to Gas Line
1. Pull back the outer sleeve located on the residential gas line (see illustration).
2. Insert the barbecue’s male coupling plug into the residential gas line’s coupling.
3. Push the male coupling plug in as far as possible, the outer sleeve will spring forward
locking the two together (see illustration).
Disconnecting From Gas Line
• Pull back the outer sleeve located on the residential gas line and pull the barbecue’s
male coupling plug out.
Warning: Failure to follow all safety procedures could result in fire and explosion causing
property damage, serious personal injury or even death.
Consult the rating label on the back of the barbecue to confirm that it is set up to burn nat-
ural gas. If the retracting sleeve on the residential gas line does not fit the barbecue’s male
coupling plug, the retracting sleeve can be replaced. All gas supply plumbing must be car-
ried out by a qualified service agency. Modifications must be carried out in accordance with
provincial authorities, and in accordance with CAN / CGA 1-B149.1 & 2 installation code
requirements. A shut-off valve must be installed on the main line. Use a 3/8 or 1/2” gas line
rated at least 75,000 BTUs.
Before lighting for the first time, lighting for the first time each season, and after making
any adjustments, do the following:
• Make sure all burner control knobs are in the “OFF” position.
• Always connect the barbecue’s gas line to the residential gas line before opening
the shut-off valve.
• Perform a “Leak Test”. This test must be performed outdoors, away from heat,
open flames and flammable liquids. Do not smoke while doing the test. Use only
a mixture of liquid soap and water. Use a spray bottle or brush to apply the
soapy solution to all the connection points. Check carefully for bubbles forming,
which is a sign of leaking gas. If you have a leaky connection, turn the gas off,
tighten the connections, turn the gas back on and retest. Do not use the barbecue
if any leaks cannot be stopped. If you can’t stop a leak, turn the gas off and get
assistance from a qualified service technician. Never use a match or open flame.
Natural Gas Supply Connection
Always disconnect the Grill and close its individual manual shutoff valve, when conducting
pressure tests of the gas supply piping system at pressures which exceed 1/2 psi (3.5kPa).
• Always isolate the Grill from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual
manual shutoff valve when conducting pressure tests of the gas supply piping system
at pressures which are equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5kPa).
