CONNECTING GAS - LP CYLINDER CONNECTION
Use the pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied with your Evo cooktop.
Recommended LP propane cylinder is a standard 5 gallon, 20 Lb., with a shutoff valve terminating in a cylinder valve outlet specifi ed and an (OPD) overfl ow
prevention device valve, compliant to current DOT specifi cations. If the cylinder is fi tted with a Type I Cylinder Connection Device, a protective dust cap must be installed on the valve outlet.

right) to a full stop.
4. Hold the supplied regulator in one hand and position the plastic coupling nut on the cylinder valve outlet threads using care to engage the center of the coupling nut to the center of the cylinder valve outlet. When completing this procedure, take care to not cross-thread the connection.
5. Observe the direction in Figure 1 and Figure 2 for installing the regulator threads to the cylinder valve. For a Standard POL Regulator turn the coupling nut counterclockwise (right to left) and tighten to a full stop. For the Quick Disconnect Regulator turn the coupling nut clockwise (left to right) and tighten to a full stop.
In the connection process, the regulator will seal on the back-check feature in the cylinder valve resulting in a slight resistance. The connection requires about a 1/2 to 3/4 additional turn to complete the connection. Tighten by hand only - do not use tools. If you cannot make the connection, disconnect the regulator and repeat steps 4 and 5.
If the unit is not in use, gas must be turned off at the supply cylinder. Inspect hoses before each use of the unit. If it is evident there is excessive abrasion or wear, or the hose is cut, it must be replaced prior to the unit being put into operation. Regulator and hose assembly can be purchased from Evo by calling 866-626-1802 or from a local gas supply company.
Specifi cations for these parts are:
• LP Regulator: 90 degree w/ 3/8” Female SAE Inlet
• LP Hose: 60” Type #1 Low Pressure

STORAGE, REMOVAL and TRANSPORTATION OF LP CYLINDER
STORAGE & REMOVAL OF LP GAS CYLINDER:
Never store LP gas cylinder indoors. When cooktop is stored indoors, shut cylinder valve off and disconnect cylinder from grill and remove to an outdoor location. Cylinder must be stored outdoors in well-ventilated area, away from and out of the reach of children. Cylinder should not be allowed to remain in a high heat area such as a closed car, trunk, or in direct sunlight.
Loosen coupling nut located on regulator and cylinder valve by turning counterclockwise using hands only - do not use tools. Next loosen thumb screws securing cylinder to lower rack and remove tank. Install safety cap over cylinder valve coupling.
TRANSPORTATION OF LP CYLINDER:
Never remove or alter cylinder labeling. Labels contain critical information on the safe handling of gas products. The DOT requires that proper labeling must be in place before the products can be offered for transportation.
Transporting cylinders in cars, vans, or in any enclosed vehicle is extremely dangerous, and should be avoided. Never transport fl ammable gases in the trunk or passenger compartment of a vehicle.
Always install the protective cap on the cylinders when they are being transported, or any time they are not in use. If the cylinders were not designed to accept a protective cap over the valve, special care must be taken to prevent the valve from damage or opening during transportation.
Secure your cylinders. The Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations require that all compressed gas cylinders be secured from movement during transportation. Cylinders that can move can open accidentally, or roll off the vehicle into the path of oncoming traffi c.
Handling, storage and transportation of all gas cylinders must be in accordance with ANSI/
NFPA 58, Storage and Handling of Liquid Petroleum Gases, or CSA B149.1, Natural Gas and
Propane Installation Code.
WARNING
Do not store spare LP gas cylinder under or near this appliance. Never fi ll cylinder beyond 80% full. Cylinder must be constructed and marked in accordance with the specifi cations for propane cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), or
CAN/CSA B339. If the above information is not followed exactly, a fi re causing death or serious injury may occur.

Inner Burner and Inner Control Knob - The Inner Burner is a 10” diameter gas fi red burner operating at 24,000BTU’s. This burner is controlled by the Inner or center-most control knob. Temperatures are adjustable from 225F° to 700F°. Starting at the Off position, the Inner Control Knob rotates 180-degrees counterclockwise through three positions.
Outer Burner and Outer Control Knob - The Outer Burner is a 20” diameter gas fi red burner operating at 24,000BTU’s. This burner is controlled by the Outer or outer-most control knob. Temperatures are adjustable from 225°F to 700°F. Starting at the Off position, the Outer Control Knob rotates 180-degrees counterclockwise through three positions.
Either the Inner or the Outer burners may be used independently to support a wide range of cooking techniques. Operating only the Inner burner provides direct temperature under the center of the cook surface, with indirect heat at the outside edge that is useful for holding pre and post cooking processes.
Conversely only the Outer burner can be used for cooking foods that may be displayed around the outside radius of the grill. Finally, both burners can be used together for maximum surface temperature and cooking versatility.
Because the burners are enclosed within a circular chassis and all heat is directed upward at the cook surface, cook surface temperature recovery is nearly immediate, providing a wide range of surface temperature adjustment and control.

COOK SURFACE MAINTENANCE
Regular cleaning and care for your Evo Affi nity 30G cooktop will keep it looking and functioning its best.
The cook surface is designed to hold a fi ne layer of cooking oil creating a ‘seasoning’ on its surface. This seasoning promotes a non-stick cooking surface and is easily maintained.
Caring for Evo’s cook surface is much like maintaining cast iron cookware. When the surface requires cleaning, there are a few basic cleaning techniques to use. For quick and routine cleaning between preparations, a metal spatula or scraper works for removing the majority of surface debris. For tougher areas or where sugars glaze the cook surface, pour a small amount of warm water on the soiled surface while the grill is warm and scrape the debris away with a spatula. Heat the cook surface to a high temperature and allow the sticky debris to become brittle. Once the debris is brittle, use the spatula or scraper to remove it. Afterwards wipe the cook surface with vegetable oil again before cooking.
To condition the Evo cook surface you should use the grill cleaning kit supplied with your grill. The grill cleaning kit contains a blue grill pad handle, grill cleaning screens, and grill grey polishing pads. Use the polishing pad after the grill cleaning pads to achieve a smooth cooking surface for the most delicate foods and applications.
To use a grill cleaning screen: With a warm cook surface, place one gray polishing pad between the grill handle base and the grill screen, so the grill screen makes direct contact with the cooking surface. Pour a small amount of vegetable oil on the cook surface and scrub the surface in a circular motion. The gray polishing pad allows excess oil to be absorbed and scours the cooking surface of carbonized debris. When fi nished scrubbing, wipe the surface down with a paper towel or cotton terry cloth.
The drip pan located just below the cook surface is designed to catch food debris and drippings from the cook surface. We recommend cleaning the drip pan after your grill has cooled to prevent the possibility of touching hot adjoining surfaces. The drip pan is easy to wipe out with soap and water using a kitchen sponge. For added convenience, two removable stainless ninth-pans are mounted inside retractable drawers at right and left side of the front control panel for collecting drip pan debris and spill overs. These spillover trays can be easily washed by hand or in a dishwasher. Be sure to empty the spillover trays after every use, and at a minimum, whenever they appear half full.
All the stainless steel components on your grill can be easily polished using a stainless steel cleaner/polish.
Stainless steel cleaner can be purchased from the Evo web site along with replacement grill cleaning and polishing pads. The Evo web site address is: www.evoamerica.com.
