Liquid Propane (LP) Cylinder(s)
• The joint where the hose connects to the LP cylinder
must be leak tested each time the LP cylinder is
reconnected. For example, test each time the LP
cylinder is refilled.
• Be sure the regulator is mounted with the small vent
hole pointed downward so that it will not collect
water. This vent should be free of dirt, grease, bugs
etc.
• The LP cylinder and connections supplied with your
Vieluxe Gas Barbecue have been designed and
tested to meet government, American Gas
Association, and Underwriters Laboratories
requirements.
