Hook up to Natural gas and Leak Test
1. Use pipe wrench to connect certified ¹⁄₂" (1.3 cm) gas supply
pipe to inlet side of regulator from Natural gas supply
according to local codes requirements. Use pipe thread
sealant that is certified for use with LP gas at connections
where required. There must be a certified manual shutoff
valve in the gas supply line near the grill for easy access.
2. Turn on the gas supply to the grill.
3. Test all connections using an approved noncorrosive leak-
detection solution. Bubbles will show a leak. Correct any leak
found.
Record Conversion
1. The appliance nameplate is located inside the grill cabinet on
the right-hand cabinet side. With a permanent marker, check
the box next to “Natural gas” and mark through “LP -
Propane.”
In the last page of the Use and Care Guide, write “Converted to
Natural Gas.” Also record the conversion date and the
technician/company that performed the conversion.
NOTE: Place LP gas parts in plastic parts bag for future use and
keep with pack containing literature.
Check and Adjust the Burners
The burners are tested and factory-set for most efficient
operation. However, variations in gas supply and other conditions
may make minor adjustments to air shutter or low flame setting
necessary.
It is recommended that a qualified person make burner
adjustments.
NOTE: The rotisserie burner cannot be adjusted.
Checking and adjusting the grill burner flames requires removing
the grate and sear plates.
Burner Flame Characteristics
The flames of the grill burners and side burners (on some models)
should be blue and stable with no excessive noise or lifting (LP
gas flames will have a slightly yellow tip). A yellow flame indicates
not enough air. If flame is noisy or lifts away from the burner, there
is too much air. Some yellow tips on flames when the burner is
set to HI setting are acceptable as long as no carbon or soot
deposits appear.
Check that burners are not blocked by dirt, debris, insect nests,
etc. and clean as necessary. If they are clean, adjust air shutters
as needed.
IMPORTANT: Before adjusting air shutters, let burners cool
completely.
To Adjust:
1. Light grill using information in the “Outdoor Grill Use” section.
2. Observe flame to determine which burners need adjustment
and how the flame is acting.
3. Turn off the valve and wait until grill and burners cool
completely.
4. Remove grill grates and sear plates.
5. Remove the 2 screws that hold the burner in place. Remove
gas burner from the grill.
