Before you start grilling, make sure you complete a visual inspection of your grill tank to check if it is in working order.
Make sure your tank is not: • Dented, bulging or cracked • Rusty or pitted, particularly on the bottom • Bent on the tank’s foot ring, collar and valve cover; and there’s a working Overfill Prevention Device, or OPD
Also: • Your grill tank is good for the first 12 yrs, but then needs to be re-certified every 5 yrs • Check the connection points between the hose, regulator, and cylinder. Tighten if loose
SAFE GRILLING TIPS Don't forget the most important ingredient to any grill-out: safety. Review the tips below for some safety advice.
FOLLOW THE MANUFACTURER'S INSTRUCTIONS. Whether it's assembly, use, maintenance, cleaning, or storage, make your grill manufacturer's instructions your go-to resource for safe grilling. POSITION THE GRILL IN A SAFE LOCATION. Keep your grill outdoors and at least five feet from the house on a level surface that is clear of outdoor furniture, overhead trees, or other potential fire hazards.
CHECK FOR LEAKS. Use a soapy water solution to check connections for leaks. Expanding bubbles indicate a leak. If there is a leak, make sure you have your tank serviced by a professional. Follow this procedure every time you replace a cylinder. FOLLOW THE PROPER LIGHTING PROCEDURES. 
Follow the manufacturer's lighting instructions, and with all grill models, keep the lid open and do not lean over the grill when lighting it.
FOLLOW PROPER RELIGHTING PROCEDURES. 
If your flame goes out, turn off the gas and refer to your owner's manual. At a minimum, with all grill models, keep the lid open and wait at least 15 minutes before relighting. BE PRESENT.
 Stay close and never leave your grill unattended.
 MAKE SURE TO KEEP YOUR PETS A SAFE DISTANCE FROM YOUR GRILL Dogs especially can't resist the smell of a good barbecue, make sure they don't get too close to the grill and put themselves in danger.
