LP Gas Cylinder Specification 
Any LP gas supply cylinder used with this grill must be approximately 12 inches in diameter and 18 inches 
high.  The maximum fuel capacity is 20 lbs. of propane, or 5 gallons.  Full cylinder weight should be

Transporting and Storing the LP Gas Supply Cylinder 
Transport only one cylinder at a time. Ensure the cylinder is secured in an upright position with the control 
valve turned off and the dust cap in place. Store cylinders outdoors and out of reach of children. Do not store 
cylinders in a building, garage, or any other enclosed area. 
Natural Gas Requirements and Connection 
Requirements 
Always check the rating plate to make sure the gas supply you are hooking up to is the gas type the grill 
is manufactured for. 
IMPORTANT: All Cal Flame grills are manufactured with the highest regard to safety. For this reason, Cal 
Flame™ grills are either manufactured to operate on either liquid propane (LP) or natural gas (NG) and cannot 
be converted. To verify the grill’s operating fuel check the serial number label on the left. Either LP or NG will 
be marked on the operating tab, indicating the proper operating fuel. Attempting to convert Cal Flame™ grills 
from one fuel to another may result in serious injury and void the warranty coverage. 
IMPORTANT: Never connect the grill to an unregulated gas supply. 
The installation of this appliance must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, to the  
national fuel gas code, ANSI Z223.1a-1998. Installation in Canada must be in accordance with the standard 
CAN/CGA-B149.2, Propane Installation Code. 
A licensed contractor or local gas company representative must perform all natural gas connections. 
Ensure that the service supplying the grill is fitted with a shut off valve conveniently positioned near the grill 
and giving ease of access.
