CORRECT

LP GAS TANK

USE
• Use of alcohol or drugs may impair the ability
to assemble and operate the appliance.
• Keep a fire extinguisher
readily accessible. In
the event of an oil or grease fire, do not attempt
to extinguish
with water. Use a Type B extinguisher
or smother with dirt, sand, or baking soda.
• In the event of rain, cover the grill and turn off
the burner and gas supply.
• Use your grill on a level, stable surface and ensure
the locking casters are locked before use.
• Do not leave the grill unattended
when in use.
• Do not move the appliance when in use.
• Allow the grill to cool before moving or storing.
• Do not use your grill as a heater.
This grill is not intended to be installed in or on
recreational
vehicles and/or
boats.

• LP gas grill models are designed for use with a
standard 20lb. (9.1kg) Liquid Propane Gas (LP Gas)
tank, which is not included with the grill. Never
connect your gas grill to an LP gas tank that exceeds
this capacity, A tank of approximately
12" (305mm)
in diameter by 18-1/2"
(472mm)
high is the
maximum
size LP gas tank to use. You must use an
"OPD" gas tank which offers a listed Overfill
Prevention Device. This safety feature prevents
tanks from being overfilled which can cause
malfunction
of the LP gas tank, regulator and grill.
• The LP gas tank must be constructed
and marked in
accordance with the Specifications
for LP-Gas
Cylinders of the U,S. Department
of Transportation
(D.O, T.) or the National Standard of Canada,
CAN/CSA-B339,
Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for
Transportation
of Dangerous Goods; and
Commission,
as applicable.
• The LP gas tank must have a shutoff valve terminating
in a LP gas supply tank valve outlet that is compatible
with a Type 1 tank connection device. The LP gas tank
must also have a safety relief device that has a direct
connection with the vapor space of the tank.
• The tank supply system must have a means for
vapor withdrawal,
• The LP gas tank used must have a collar to protect
the tank valve.
• Never connect an unregulated
LP gas tank to your
gas grill. The gas regulator assembly supplied with
your gas grill is adjusted to have an outlet pressure
of ll"water
column (W.C.) for connection to an LP
gas tank. Only use the regulator and hose assembly
supplied with your gas grill. Replacement
regulators
and hose assemblies
must be those
specified
by Sears. See the Parts List.
Have your LP Gas dealer check the release valve
after every filling to ensure it remains free of
defects. Always keep the LP gas tank in an upright
position, Do not subject the LP gas tank to excessive
heat,
• Never store an LP gas tank indoors. If you store your
gas grill indoors, always disconnect the LP gas tank first
and store it safely outside.
• LP gas tanks must be stored outdoors in a
well-ventilated
area and out of the reach of children.
• Disconnected
LP gas tanks must not be stored in a
building, garage, or any other enclosed area.
• The regulator and hose assembly can be seen after
opening the door and must be inspected before each
use of the grill. If there is excessive abrasion or wear
or if the hose is cut, it must be replaced prior to using
the grill again.
• Never light your gas grill with the lid closed or
before checking to ensure the burner tubes are fully
seated over the gas valve orifices.
• Never allow children to operate your grill. Do not
allow children or pets to play near your grill.

A.
B.
C.

Do not store a spare LP gas tank under or
near this appliance.
Never fill the tank beyond 80 percent full;
If the information
in "(a)"and
"(b)" is not
followed exactly, a fire causing death or
serious injury may occur.

Use your grill at least 3 feet away from
any wall or surface.
Use your grill at least 3
feet from combustible objects that can melt or
catch fire (such as vinyl or wood siding, fences
and overhangs) or sources of ignition including
pilot lights on water heaters and live electrical
appliances,
Never use your gas grill in a building, garage,
porch, shed, breezeway, or any other enclosec
area,
Never obstruct the flow of ventilation
around your gas grill housing.

Notes

about

LP Gas Tank

Exchange

Regulator

Programs

• Many retailers that sell grills offer you the option of
replacing your empty LP gas tank through an
exchange service. Use only those reputable
exchange companies that inspect, precision fill, test
and certify their tanks. Exchange your tank only for
an OPD safety feature equipped tank as described
in the LP gas tank section of this manual.

Regulator:
Your regulator is equipped with a Q.C.C. Type 1
quick connect system. It will not allow gas to flow
until a positive seal has been made, It has a
thermal element that will shut off the gas flow if
the temperature
reaches 240 degrees F (115
degrees C), It also has a flow-limiting
device that
will restrict the flow of gas to 10 cubic feet per
hour (0.28 cubic meters per hour).

• Leak test new and exchanged LP gas tanks BEFORE
connecting one to your grill.
to Leak Test your

LP Gas Tank

Limiting

Valves

on LP Gas Tanks

Check all connections
for LP Gas Leaks
Never test for leaks with a flame. Prior to

Your LP gas tank is equipped with a flow limiting valve
that will restrict the flow of gas due to a sudden change
in pressure. This can often activate without your
knowledge.
You will notice among other things that
your grill does not get as hot as it should, will take
longer to heat up, or you may not be able to light all
burners. If you notice any of the above, then you
should reset the valve and clear your gas line.

first use, at the beginning of each season
or every time your LP Gas tank is changed
you must check for gas leaks. Follow
these three steps:
Make a soap solution by mixing one part
liquid detergent
and one part water
Turn the burner control knobs to the OFF position.
Then turn the gas ON at the source.
Apply the soap solution to all gas connections
indicated by the arrows. See diagram. If
bubbles appear in the soap solution the
connections
are not properly sealed. Check
each fitting and tighten or repair as
necessary.

To do this
1, Ensure the LP gas tank valve is OFR
2. Disconnect the regulator from the LP gas tank.
3. Open all burner control knobs including the side
burner to Hi at the same time.
4. Close all burner control knobs to OFF.
5. Let the LP gas tank stand for at least i0
minutes.
6. Reconnect the regulator assembly to the LP gas
tank.
7. Slowly, meaning about 1/4 turn at a time, turn
on the LP gas valve.
8. Follow the burner lighting procedures to light
the burner farthest away from the gas source.
9. The flow limiting valve should now be reset.

Gas Valve Manifold

This flow limiting valve is triggered
by sudden changes
in pressure. This can be caused by a leak, faulty
connection of the regulator to the LP gas tank, turning
on the LP gas tank valve too quickly, or turning the
burners off by turning the LP gas tank valve off before
turning the burner control knobs to off. Note: always
turn off your burners using the burner control knobs
first before turning the LP gas tank valve off.

warm water solution. Use a vegetable brush to
remove stubborn burnt-on cooking residue. Dry the
heat diffusers thoroughly
before you reinstall them
into the firebox.
Cleaning the Grease Tray and Pan
To reduce the chance of fire, the grease tray and
grease pan should be visually inspected before each
grill use. Remove any grease and wash both with a
mild soap and warm water solution.
Cleaning the Znside of the Grill Lid
Grease can have a tendency to build up on the inside
of the grill lid and could drip onto the deck or patio
when the lid is opened. Visually inspect the inside of
the grill lid before each grill use. Remove any grease
and wash with a mild soap and warm water solution.
Annual Cleaning
of the Grill Interior
Burning-off
excess food after every cookout will
keep it ready for instant use. We recommend

Regardless of the burner cleaning procedure you use,
we recommend
you also complete the following steps
to help prolong burner life.
1. Use a fiber pad or nylon brush to clean the entire
outer surface of each burner until free of food
residue and dirt.
2. Clean any clogged ports with a stiff wire, such as
an open paper clip.
3. Inspect each burner for damage (cracks or holes)
and if such damage is found, order and install a
new burner. After installation,
check to ensure that
the gas valve orifices are correctly placed inside
the ends of the burner tubes. Also check the
position of your electrodes.
4. Never enlarge the burner ports during cleaning.

To reduce the chance of FLASHBACK
FIRE you must
clean the burner tubes as follows periodically in
summer and fall, wherever spiders are active in your
area, and if your grill has not been used for an
extended period of time.
1. Turn all burner control knobs to the "OFF"
position.
2. Turn the LP gas tank valve to the "OFF" position.
3. Disconnect the LP gas regulator assembly from
the LP gas tank.
4. Remove the cooking grates, heat tents, grease
cup, and grease tray from the grill.
5. Remove the screw from the rear of each burner
using a Phillips head screwdriver.
6. Carefully lift each burner up and away from the
gas valve orifice.
7. Check and clean burner tubes for insects and
insect nests. A dogged tube can lead to a fire
beneath the grill.
8. Refer to FIGURE1 and use one of these three
cleaning methods:
METHOD 1: Bend a stiff wire or wire coat
hanger into a small hook as shown and run the
hook through the burner tube and inside the
burner several times to remove debris.

For safe operation ensure the gas valve assembly
orifice is inside the burner tube before using your
grill. See figure. If the orifice is not inside the
burner tube, lighting the burner may cause
explosion and /or fire resulting in serious bodily
injury _nrl /nr nrnn_rtv d_m,_n_

METHOD 2: Use a bottle brush with a flexible
handle and run the brush through the burner
tube and inside the burner several times to
remove any debris.
METHOD 3: Use an air hose to force air
through each burner tube. The forced air
should pass debris or obstructions
through the
burner and out the ports. Always wear eye
protection if using this method.

BURNER FLAMES
Always inspect the burner flame after lighting. A
good flame should be primarily blue with a yellow
tip and have a minimum amount of noise. Some
yellow tips are OK if under one inch. New burners
sometimes have oil residue, which will cause yellow
flame when burning off. Variations in gas supply,
altitude, weather, and other factors can all impact
burner performance.
Older grills can also show
more yellow flame as food deposits, oils, and fats
can build up.

Ports

Small insects, such as spiders, are able to access the
burner tubes. Sometimes they will build nests or
spin webs. In either case, this can block or reduce
the amount of gas flowing through the burner. You
will usually see a smaller flame, or a flame that is
mostly yellow rather than blue, coming from the
burner when this happens. Other signs include the
gill not heating evenly, not reaching temperature,
or
burners not igniting. In cases with severe blockage,
this can cause the flame to burn backwards,
and
outside of the burner tubes, which can cause
damage to your grill and/or personal injury.

Burn-Off

Do not place the food directly over a burner to use
this method. Instead, the food should be placed on
the left or right side of your grill with the burner lit
on the opposite side or in the center with the
center burners off. Indirect cooking must be done
with the lid down.

Some of the new parts of your grill could have
residual oils. We recommend you ignite the burners,
turn to "Hi", and lower the lid for 3 to 5 minutes to
burn any oils off before grilling for the first time.
CAUTION:
Operating your grill on the "Hi" setting
for longer than five minutes may damage certain
parts of your grill.
Preheating
To preheat, light your grill on "Hi", lower the lid, and
follow this timetable:
for high temperature
cooking,
preheat grill 3 to 5 minutes; for low temperature
cooking, preheat grill 3 minutes. Preheating is not
necessary to slow cook.
Cooking Temperature
High Setting" The "Hi" control knob setting should
only be used to sear some meats, pre-heat your
grill the first 3-Sminutes
and for burning food
residue off the grill for 3-5 minutes after cooking is
complete.
Never use the "Hi" setting for extended
cooking.
Medium
to Low Settings:
Most recipes specify
medium to low settings, including all smoking and
rotisserie cooking, lean cuts of meat, chicken, and
fish.

Prepare
Cooking Grates for Grilling
Greasing the cooking surface will help keep foods
from sticking and reduce the amount of cleanup
required. Use a brush to apply a thin layer of
cooking oil or vegetable shortening
onto each
cooking grate. We do not suggest spray type oils
unless they are specified for high-temperature
cooking. Be sure to coat the entire cooking surface
including edges and any areas with chipped
porcelain.
Flare-Ups
The fats and juices dripping from grilled food can
cause flare-ups.
Flare-ups work to color and flavor
your foods, so some flare-ups are preferred. Too
many can work against you though. Reduce
flare-ups by trimming
away excess fat, using the
indirect method of grilling, and grilling using lower
temperatures.
Using the Back Burner (If Equipped)
The back burner is used when cooking with a
rotisserie, wh:.ch _sscld sep__r__te!y. Please follow
the points below when using the back burner.
1. Always remove the warming rack.
2. Do not use the main burners when the back
burner is in use.

An Important
Note About Cooking Temperature
The outside grilling area is not the controlled
environment
that your indoor kitchen is. Many
variables can impact the cooking performance
of
your grill, including outside air temperature,
wind,
humidity, and altitude. Allow more cooking time for
cold, wind, and higher altitudes. We recommend you
place the grill in an area protected from wind.
Monitor your grill closely and rotate foods as needed
to prevent overcooking
and ensure the most
delicious results every time. Experimenting
makes
grilling more fun and interesting!
The middle and back primary cooking areas offer the
highest heat for searing and grilling.
The warming rack offers medium heat for preparing
breads and firm vegetables
like potatoes and corn
and keeping food warm.
The front primary cooking area offers less heat and
is ideal for preparing delicate foods and also for
keeping cooked foods warm.
Direct Cooking
The direct cooking method is used when food is
placed directly over the lit grill burners. This method
is ideal for searing, grilling, deep frying and
whenever you want foods to have an open-flame
barbecued taste. The lid can be open or closed
depending on your preference.
Indirect
Cooking
The indirect cooking method is used for most foods.

Use an aluminum
foil pan to catch the juices
that drip down from the food.
Allowing grease to gather in the bottom of the
firebox could create a grease fire the next
time the main burners are used.

Never

line the bottom

of the firebox

with

aluminum foil, sand or any substance that will
restrict the flow of grease into the grease tray
or cup.
Before each use, pull out the grease tray and
remove all grease and food debris to prevent a
grease fire hazard.
Your grill will get very hot. Always wear a
flame retardant BBQ Mitt when cooking on your
grill. Never lean over cooking areas while using
grill. Do not touch cooking surfaces, lid, grill
housing or other parts while grill is in operation,
or until the grill has cooled down after use.

Place the spit into the motor. Be sure the bushing
on the other end of the spit rests on the firebox
side wall. Note that you will need to remove the
warming rack and possibly the grates depending
on the size of the food you are cooking.

Plug in the rotisserie motor, and turn "On". Ensure
the spit is rotating freely and evenly. Adjust the
meat and counterweight
as necessary. Turn "Off"
once balanced.

Place a pan under the food to catch the drippings
from rotisserie cooking. Do not allow the drippings
to fall down into the firebox. Again, it may be
necessary to remove the cooking grates.

Question:
can I convert my gas grill from one fuel type
to another,
such as LP to NG (natural
gas)
or vice versa?

Answer:
No, your gas grill is manufactured
to specific
standards developed
by CSA and ANSI for your
safety and is certified for one type of gas only.

Question:
sometimes
I hear a humming
sound coming
from my regulator.
What causes this?
Answer:
The humming
sound is gas flowing through the
regulator. This is more likely to occur in periods
of high gas flow. A low volume of sound is
normal and will not interfere with the operation
of your grill.

Answer:
Check these possibilities:
1. The gas supply is turned off at the LP tank.
Turn on the gas at the LP tank.
2. Your LP tank is out of propane.
3. The regulator is not properly seated in the
tank valve. Remove and reattach. Hand
tighten only.
4. Crimped fuel supply hose. Inspect and
straighten.
5. Regulator failure or damaged hose assembly.
Inspect and order a replacement
part. Do not
use your grill if you find a damaged hose
assembly.
6. Gas not getting to the burners. Inspect the
burners under the control panel to be sure
they are aligned with the valve orifices.
7. Blockage in the gas system. Inspect burners
and valve orifices for blockages, such as
spider webs, insects, etc. Clean as necessary.

Question:

the electronic igniter button properly.
Be sure the wires are all attached to the
electronic ignition assembly behind the
control panel and the individual electrodes.
Inspect the electrodes to be sure they are
not coated with grease or dirt. If so, clean
with rubbing alcohol.

Question:
My grill has a low flame on some burners,
or some burners will not light at all. What
can cause this?
Answer
This can be caused by the flow limiting device,
which is generally triggered by a sudden change
in pressure.
Opening the tank valve too fast or
shutting the burners off using the tank valve can
cause this. To reset:
1. Close the LP tank valve and disconnect
the regulator assembly from the tank.
2. Let the LP tank sit for 10 minutes.
3. Open all burner control knobs, including
the side burner, to "Hi" at the same time.
4. Close all burner control knobs.
5. Reconnect the gas regulator to the LP
tank.
6. Follow the burner lighting procedures
and light the burner farthest from the LP
tank.

Listen to hear the electronic igniter clicking. If not,
check these possibilities:
1. Replace the AA battery. Ensure the "+" end is

2. Ensure the battery is centered and fits into

Question:
Where do I use my grill
and better performance?

for safer

Question:
can I clean parts of my grill, such as the
cooking grates and heat tents, in a
self-cleaning
oven?
Answer:
No. You should not clean any part of your grill in
a self-cleaning
oven.

operation

Answer:
Strong winds and low temperatures
can affect
the heating and performance
of your gas grill so
factor in these elements when positioning your
grill outdoors for cooking.

Question:

Use your grill at least 3 feet away from
or surface.

What
from

any wall

keep

cast

iron

grates

Answer:
Cast iron grates do require special care. We
recommend
you first season new grates. Wash
new grates with dishwashing liquid, rinse, and dry
completely with a soft cloth. Never wash them in a
dishwasher. We recommend
you use a solid
vegetable shortening
over the grates to season
them the first time. Spread a thin coating with a
paper towel over the entire surface, corners, and
edges. Preheat your grill to 500 degrees. Turn half
your burners to "LOW" and half "OFF", and place
grates in the firebox for about an hour. Shut off all
burners and allow the grates to cool. We
recommend
you coat the grates with a liquid
vegetable oil before each use. We do not suggest
spray type oils unless they are specified for high
temperature
cooking.

Use your grill at least 3 feet away from
combustible
objects that can melt or catch fire
(such as vinyl or wood siding, fence and
overhangs)
or sources of ignition including pilot
lights on water heaters and live electrical
appliances.
Never use your gas grill in a garage, porch, shed,
breezeway or any other enclosed area.
Never obstruct the flow of ventilation
your gas grill housing.

Question:
The Regulator
and Hose supplied with my
gas grill does not fit the older LP Gas Tank
I've used for years. Why not?
Answer:
The U.S. Government
regulates gas appliances
and LP gas tanks. When regulations are changed
the LP gas tank fittings are altered to insure
compliance.
If your LP gas tank does not fit the
regulator and hose assembly supplied with your
new grill, then the tank is outdated and must be
replaced. Note: Effective April 1, 2002 all LP gas
tanks sold must include an "OPD" Overfill
Prevention Device. The OPD tanks are identified
by their triangular-shaped
valve wheel. This
internal device prevents the LP gas tank from
being overfilled. Tanks without an OPD valve can
no longer be refilled.

Question:
Is it safe to clean my porcelain
coated
cooking grates in the dishwasher?
Answer:
No. You should not clean any grill parts in your
Dishwasher. We recommend you clean all parts of
your grill, including the cooking grates, by hand.
