L.P. GAS INSTALLATION Frigidaire Gas Grills that are set to operate with L.P. gas come with a high capacity hose and regulator assembly. (Note: Only use the pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied with the grill or a replacement pressure regulator and hose assemblies specified by Frigidaire). This assembly is designed to connect directly to a standard 20 lb.
Pre Operation Leak Testing GENERAL INFORMATION Although all gas connections on the grill are leak tested prior to shipment, a complete gas tightness check must be performed at the installation site due to possible shifting during shipment, installation or excessive pressure unknowingly being applied to the unit.

2. If you have already attempted to light the burner with the igniter, allow 5 minutes for any accumulated gas to dissipate. Keep your face and hands as far away from the grill as possible. Insert a lit extended match or lighter through the cooking grids to the burner.
5. Allow grill to cool down, wipe off any splatters or grease and clean the drip tray as needed. 6. Do not put a cover on the grill while it is still hot as it could start a fire. Keep any electrical supply cords and the fuel supply hose away from any heated surfaces.
Important: Do not leave the grill outside during inclement weather unless it is covered (cover sold separately). Rain water can collect inside the grill, the grill cart or the drip tray if left uncovered. If the drip tray is not cleaned after use and the grill is left uncovered, the drip tray will fill with water causing grease and water to spill into the grill cart.
SPIDER AND INSECT WARNING Spider and insects can nest in the burners of this or any other grill and cause the gas to flow from the front of the burner. This is very dangerous condition which can cause a fire to occur behind the valve panel, thereby damaging the grill and making it unsafe to operate.
