Portable L.P. Gas Barbecue Cylinders

Liquefied Petroleum gas (abbreviated L.P. gas or propane), is highly flammable. It becomes liquid when stored under high pressure inside a cylinder and vaporizes when released. L.P. gas is heavier than air and tends to collect in low areas. It is important that there are no leaking connections on your gas grill that could cause a fire or explosion (see the section titled “LEAK TESTING”).
Portable LP gas grills require a fuel delivery system which is comprised of a valve [A], a regulator [B] with vent hole [C], an L.P. gas supply cylinder [D], (Fig. 1). Illustration in Fig. 1 is for description purposes only.

Cylinder Specifications

• All L.P. gas cylinders used with this appliance shall be constructed and marked in accordance with the Specifications for L.P. Gas Cylinders of the U. S. Department of Transportation (DOT) or the National Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA-B339, Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for Transportation of Dangerous Goods; and Commission, as applicable; and a cylinder connection device compatible with the connection for outdoor cooking appliances.
• Read labels on the L.P. Gas Supply Cylinder.

WARNING
Your new barbecue grill is equipped with a CGA # 600 regulator [B]. DO NOT attempt to connect this regulator to any other disposable L.P. cylinder not equipped with a mating CGA # 600 fitting [E]. This grill may only be used with the pressure regulator supplied with this unit, or pressure regulators specified by Coleman for use with this unit. Replacement regulators must only be those specified by Coleman. (Fig. 1)

DANGER
NEVER store a spare L.P. gas supply cylinder under the grill body or inside the grill enclosure or in the vicinity of any heat producing appliance. (Fig. 2)

DANGER

• TO PREVENT FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD: NO SMOKING. DO NOT use or permit sources of ignition in the area while doing a leak test.
• Perform leak tests outdoors only.
• NEVER perform a leak test with fire or flame.

How to Check for Leaks

1. Make a soapy solution of equal parts mild liquid dishwashing detergent and water.
2. Turn off all burner control knobs.
3. Apply a soap solution to the connections indicated with the arrows. (Fig. 27) If bubbles appear at these areas, a leak is indicated.

Fixing A Fuel Leak

If you detect a leak:

1. Stop a leak by tightening the loose joint, or by replacing the faulty part with a replacement part recommended by Coleman. DO NOT attempt to repair the cylinder if it should become damaged; the cylinder MUST be replaced.
2. If you are unable to stop a leak, remove the cylinder from the grill. DO NOT use the grill until the leak is corrected.

When to test for leaks:

1. Perform a leak test each time the gas supply cylinder is connected to the regulator. Leak test anytime a part of the gas system is replaced.

Start-Up Check List

WARNING
Failure to follow these safety steps before using the grill each time could result in a fire that could be hazardous to you, your appliance or property. It is especially important to observe these steps after the grill has been stored, moved or cleaned.

1. Regularly check the burner venturi tubes for blockage from an insect nest. Read “Cleaning the Venturi” in the section titled “Care, Maintenance, and Cleaning”, and also the section titled “Troubleshooting”.
2. Check that all the burner venturi [A] are set over the valve outlets [B] correctly. The valve orifice [C] must be inside the venturi. (Fig. 28)
3. Use only the gas specified.
4. Keep the grill on a level surface.
5. Keep the grease pan empty at start up.

CAUTION
DO NOT add charcoal or lighting fluid!

Lighting Instructions

WARNING
THE FOLLOWING RULES MUST ALWAYS BE FOLLOWED IN THIS ORDER (FIG. 29):

1. OPEN THE GRILL LID! Any attempt to light the grill with the lid down could cause an explosion.
2. Check that the burner control knobs are turned to “OFF”.
3. DO NOT stand with your head or arms over the grill.

Lighting The Burners

INSTASTART™ Electronic Ignition

1. Push and turn burner valve to HIGH/LIGHT then push igniter button repeatedly until burner lights. (Fig. 30 and 31)
2. If ignition does not occur in 5 seconds, turn burner control(s) off, wait 5 minutes, and repeat the lighting procedure.

Match Lighting

1. Strike and place the burning long wooden match (or use the match extension or a butane lighter with extension) through the spaces in the grill grates near the ports of the burner. (Fig. 32)
2. Push and turn the control knob counterclockwise to the “HIGH” position.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 to light the second burner.

CAUTION
Use a LONG wooden match or a butane lighter with an extension. Make sure all burner controls are off except for the burner being lighted. If a long-reach match or lighter is not accessible, use the match extension. Insert a match in the holder end of the extension, strike and place the burning match near the BURNER being operated.

Shutting Off the Grill

CAUTION
DO NOT touch hot grill parts with your bare hands!
You MUST use protective gloves.

• Turn all burner control knobs to off. (Fig. 33)

CAUTION
Be certain the disposable cylinder is disconnected when the grill is placed in storage.

General Use and Correct Burner Flames

WARNING

• Keep the grill area clean and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors, liquids, and spare L.P. cylinders.
• To avoid the possibility of tipping over the grill, NEVER place more than 20 pounds on the side table. A filled 4-quart aluminum pot weighs approximately 10 pounds.
• DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
• Keep the ventilation opening(s) of the L.P. cylinder enclosure free and clear of debris.
• A barbecue grill becomes hot during use. DO NOT touch grates, or cooking surfaces.
• Be sure to tighten all hardware (screws, nuts, bolts, etc.) at least once a year or before each grilling season.

Condition The Grill

• Before using the grill for the first time, or after storage, operate the grill 15 minutes on the high setting with the lid closed, to burn away oil.
• Once the oil has burned away, check the burner flame per the next step.

The Burner Flame

• Open the grill lid. The cooking grates should be in place.
• Keep your arms and face away from being directly above the cooking area. Look through the cooking grates and observe the burner’s flame below.
• Flames should appear similar to the good flame shown in Fig. 34 and as follows:
• A good flame should be blue with a yellow tip.
• Some yellow tips on flames up to 1 inch in length are acceptable as long as no carbon or soot deposits appear.
• If flames are excessively yellow and irregular, the oil residue may not be completely burned off, or the venturi may be clogged or may not be properly positioned over the orifices. Allow the grill to cool before repositioning the venturi over the valve and orifices.
• Grills that have been in use for a while sometimes begin to show more yellow flame. A build-up of food deposits, fats or cooking seasonings can cause yellowing flames. Clean the burner to remove residue and check for clogged burner holes or a blocked venturi. Refer to the section titled “Cleaning the Venturi”.
• Regular use of your grill will actually help keep it operating more smoothly.
• Each grill may heat differently. Some units will heat somewhat more to the center and back of the grill. The lavor of grilled food will improve the more you use the grill and as you become familiar with it.

Grilling Tips and Hints

Burner Control Setting Tips

• The high flame setting is too hot for direct cooking. The high flame setting is good for quick searing of meat, then finish cooking on medium or low flame settings.
• Use the high flame setting with the lid closed to preheat the grill for 5 minutes before cooking and with the lid closed for a maximum of 5 minutes after cooking to burn off grease drippings.
• Use a medium flame setting for direct cooking of steaks, pork chops, chicken and hamburgers.
• Use a low flame setting for roasts.
• Thick steaks will finish with a better texture and more juice if first seared on high flame setting and then cooked on a low flame setting.

Safe Grill Operation

• NEVER leave cooking food unattended. Continually observing the food will help in maintaining an even temperature, conserve fuel, improve the food’s flavor and lessen flare-ups.
• To open the grill lid, slowly lift the handle to avoid burning in case of a grease fire flare-up.
• DO NOT expose any part of your body directly above the cooking area.

Food Preparation Hints
Your grill can cook a variety of foods. For best results, follow these instructions:

• Trim excess fat from meat and poultry. Slash any remaining fat to stop curling, but take care not to cut the meat.
• Frozen meat and poultry should be thawed prior to cooking.
• Frozen fish and vegetables will cook without thawing.
• Salt food after cooking to help prevent drying out the food.
• Brush naturally lean meats with cooking oil or margarine.
• Cook small pieces of tender foods in foil or on special delicate-food cooking grates (see the section titled “Cooking Methods”).
• Apply barbecue, tomato or sugar-based sauces no sooner than the last 10 m inutes of cooking.
• Turn food with tongs or a spatula; piercing food (especially meat), tends to dry it out..

In Case of Grease Fire

Follow These Steps

1. Shut off the gas at the burner valve(s) and stay away!
2. Allow the fire to burn itself out.
3. Once the fire is out and the appliance has cooled, remove the disposable cylinder.
4. Clean all parts and inspect for damage. Parts to check for damage are the L.P. cylinder, regulator, burner valve(s) and burner(s).
5. If any of the above mentioned components are damaged, seek replacement from Coleman before operating the grill again. Locate your nearest service center by calling 1-800-835-3278.

Note:

• Some flare-up adds a smoky flavor and sears food. Excessive grease fires can cause a potentially hazardous situa- tion and damage the grill.
• Avoid excessive flare-ups by preheating the grill with the lid closed for 5 minutes on the high setting to burn off grease from previous cooking.
• Cook with the lid down and continually monitor cooking food to avoid grease fires and flare-ups.
• Trimming excess fat from meat will reduce grease fires and flare- ups. Cook fatty meat in smaller amounts over indirect heat on a low setting.
• Be sure to follow the instructions in the section titled “Care, Maintenance, and Cleaning”.

Cooking Methods

Direct method:

• The heat source is directly below the food.
• Use for browning meat or cooking hot dogs and hamburg- ers, but check food frequently.
• Use for skillet and stir-fry cooking, but limit the amount of oil and heat to be used.
• Cook roasts, turkey or duck on low heat. Place meat with water in a foil pan with a corrugated bottom. Replenish water as needed.

Indirect method:

• Light only one side of the burner and place food on the opposite side for cooking.
• Allow food to cook at a lower temperature which increases tenderness and reduces grease flare-ups.
• It is a good method for cooking foods that burn easily (vegetables, fish, etc.).
• Cook casseroles in ovenware or foil pans much like cooking in a conventional oven.
• Also try placing a pan of water above the lit burner side to help meat retain its juices. Replenish the water as needed.

Care, Maintenance and Cleaning

DRIP TRAY
The drip tray is located below the grill and should be cleaned periodically to prevent heavy buildup of debris. (Fig. 35)
Note: Allow the drip tray to cool before attempting to clean.
Important: Do not leave the grill outside during inclement weather unless it is covered (cover sold separately). Rain water can collect inside of the grill, or in 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. We recommend cleaning and storing the drip tray after every use.

COOKING GRATES
The cooking grates can be cleaned immediately after cooking is completed and after turning off the grill. Wear a barbecue mitt and scrub the cooking grates with a damp cloth. If the grill is allowed to cool down, cleaning the grates will be easier if removed from the grill and cleaned with a mild detergent.
CAUTION
All cleaning and maintenance should be done only when the grill is cool & with the fuel supply turned off at the cylinder. Disposable propane cylinders should be detached from the grill during cleaning.

Suggested Cleaning Materials:

• Mild dishwashing liquid detergent
• Hot water
• Wire brush
• Paperclip
• Nylon cleaning pad
• Soft brass-bristled brush
• Putty knife
• Scraper

Component Cleaning:

• BURNER: Wire-brush loose corrosion from the burner exterior. Clean clogged gas port holes with an opened paper clip. Replace corroded or damaged burners that would emit excess gas.
• COOKING GRATES: Clean cooking grates with mild soap and hot water. Remove stubborn residue with a mild cleanser or scrub brush. DO NOT use a commercial oven cleaner.
• GRILL INTERIOR: Remove grates. Scrape side with tools and remove excess grease and cooking residue.

Cleaning the Venturi

WARNING
Spider’s nests or wasp’s mud inside the venturi may cause fire at the valve. If a fire occurs, immediately turn off the gas supply at the control valve. (see representative illustration in Fig. 36)

Note:
Spiders and small insects can spin webs and build nests inside the venturi tubes. This especially occurs in late summer and fall before frost when spiders are most active. These nests can obstruct gas flow and cause a fire in and around the burner valves. Such a fire can cause operator injury and serious damage to the grill. To help prevent a blockage and ensure full heat output, clean and inspect the venturi tubes often (once or twice a month). NOTE: Water or air pressure will not normally clear a spider web.
Steps For Cleaning Venturi:

1. To remove the above obstructions, use an accessory flexible venturi brush or bend a small hook on one end of a 20-inch long flexible wire such as the one shown in Fig. 37.
2. Remove the cooking grates set aside. (Fig. 38)
3. Using a screwdriver, remove the screws holding the cooktop and set aside. (Fig. 39)
4. Using a screwdriver, remove the self-tapping screws holding the burner clamps and remove the burners. (Fig. 40)
5. Look inside lower end of venturi tubes for nests, webs or mud. If present, clean as noted in Step 1, Fig. 37.
6. Inspect and clean the burner if needed.
7. Replace the main burners and burner clamps, and position the burners in the operating position.
8. Make sure the orifice fittings are inside the venturi tubes, then tighten all self tapping screws. (Fig. 41)
9. Reinstall the cooktop and the cooking grates.

Moving and Storage

CAUTION
A collision with the grill, as with any metal object, could cause injury. Use care when moving a portable gas grill.
Moving the grill:

• DO NOT move the grill while it is lit or hot, or with objects on the cooking surface or side tables.
• Clean the grease tray before moving the grill to prevent spills.
• Collapse the grill before moving.
• Move the grill slowly. DO NOT run with the grill behind you; it could hit you from behind causing injury.

After moving the grill:

• Check all gas connections for leaks that could occur from the movement.
• Check the venturi tubes to be sure they are still over the orifices .

Steps to follow before storing grill:

• Clean the grill, including the grease tray.
• Coat the burner lightly with cooking oil to retard rusting.
• For outdoor use only. If the grill is stored indoors, detach the cylinder outdoors. If left outdoors, remove the cylinder and cover the grill for protection from the weather.
• Grill covers may be purchased from a grill dealer or manufacturer.
