The webs or nests can be very small, but they are very strong and can block the flow of gas. Clean burner prior to use after storing, at the beginning of grilling season or after a period of one month not being used

The Fuel System
Gas grills are used safely by millions of people when following simple safety precau ons. The items in the fuel system are designed for opera on with this grill. They must not be replaced with any other brand. (See parts list for replacement items.)

GAS BURNER:
The gas burner is constructed of tubular stainless steel and should not require maintenance other than inspec on for insects/nests inside the air intake slots.

BURNER VALVE/REGULATOR:
The burner control is actually a regulator/valve assembly. The regulator a aches directly to the end of the burner, which extends out of the right end of the grill by, a 1-pound propane cylinder threads into the regulator. Only a factory supplied gas valve/regulator must be used. (See parts list for replacement items.)

LP GAS REGULATOR CAUTION
The gas pressure regulator provided with this appliance must be used. This regulator is equipped with the required orifice and is set for the required outlet pressure for this appliance. This combina on of orifice size and pressure regula on specifica ons provides the cooking performance intended by ROVSUN Table Top Grill. Subs tu on of regulator by any other device or any other manufacturer is dangerous and could result in serious injury.

LP GAS REGULATOR
The gas pressure regulator is shipped loose and must be installed prior to opera ng your grill. This is a “slip-fit”~ requiring no tools. See assembly instruc ons on page 6 for proper install on. The regulator may be removed from the grill a er use. Turn the regulator control knob to the “OFF” posi on; disconnect the LP cylinder and allow the grill to cool for at least 30 minutes prior to removing regulator. Care should be taken to store the regulator in a clean, secure loca on when the grill is not in use. The threaded cylinder connec on area should be kept clean and free of dust, dirt, sand or any foreign materials. Clean both the regulator and LP cylinder threaded areas prior to connec ng cylinder to regulator.

PROPANE FUEL: Warning – propane is a flammable gas. Improper handling may result in an explosion and/or fire and serious accident or injury. Your grill is designed to operate with propane (LP) gas only and is equipped with the proper orifice for propane gas. Ca on: Do not connect this grill with any gas supply other than propane.Propane gas is heavier than air and se les in lower areas. Make certain adequate ven la on is available when using your grill. The gas cylinder may be stored outside in a well-ven lated area out of the reach of children when the grill is not in use.

LP GAS CYLINDER: This grill is designed and intended to be used with a disposable propane cylinder with a nominal fuel weight of 1 lb. Such a cylinder is approximately 4” in diameter and 7” long. The ROVSUN Table Top Grill does not include an LP gas cylinder. This must be purchased separately and be found at most hardware stores. The cylinder used must be constructed in accordance with the specifica ons for LP cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transporta on (DOT) DOT-39 NRC 232/290 Millie

The LP gas cylinder shall be used only outdoors in a well-ventilated space and not in a building, garage, or any other enclosed area. The ROVSUN Table Top Grill may be stored indoor if the LP gas cylinder is removed and stored outdoor. The LP gas cylinder (not included) is threaded for connection directly to the gas regulator supplied with this appliance. Care should be taken when threading the cylinder to the regulator to engage threads correctly to achieve the proper and intended connection. When disconnecting or connecting the gas cylinder, be careful that the regulator does not strike the grill, the ground, or any other surfaces. Replace the protective cap over the threaded cylinder connection when removed from grill. If any difficulty occurs when connecting or disconnecting the cylinder to the regulator assembly, contact your local gas supplier for assistance.

When re-connecting the LP gas cylinder to the regulator, be sure to hand- tighten until snug. This connection should be inspected for damage and leak tested after each re-connection.

To leak test, make a soap solution of one part liquid detergent and one part water. You will need a spray bottle, brush, or rag to apply the solution to the fitting. Bubbles indicate leaks.

OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

BURNER VALVE / REGULATOR

The burner control operates in the following positions indicated by the pointer at the top of the regulator as installed on the grill:

• OFF – This stops the flow of gas to the burner.
• PUSH TO TURN ON – Push “IN” on the knob to release the knob from the locked “OFF” position.
• HIGH – This position provides the highest gas flow and the hottest cooking temperatures.
• MED – This position provides cooking temperatures between HIGH and LOW.
• LOW – This position provides the lowest cooking temperatures.

COOKING TEMPERATURE SETTINGS

• HIGH – Approximately 450°F
• MED – Approximately 400°F LOW – Approximately 350°F

Note: A disposable 1 lb. propane cylinder “NEAR EMPTY” can significantly reduce internal pressure and may affect the regulator’s capability to accurately control gas flow. As the propane cylinder reaches empty, this may cause “hotter-than-normal” cooking temperatures during the final minutes of use.

Note: A disposable 1 lb. propane cylinder will provide approximately 4-6 hours of cooking time with the Grill.

LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Make sure the regulator is properly secured into the burner end.
