MANUAL LIGHTING THE GRILL
1. Open the Hood.
2. Important: Make sure control knobs are turned “Off”.
(See FIG. 13A)
3. Turn the LP Gas Cylinder valve open counter
clockwise until it stops. (See FIG. 13B)
4. Insert a lit match through match-lighting hole
underneath the grill bowl on the right side. (FIG. 14A)
Hold the flame near the burner. (FIG. 14B)
5. Push in and turn the right main burner control knob
counterclockwise to the “High” position. (See FIG. 13C
& 13D)
6. From the “Off” position, push left control knob in and
turn counterclockwise to the High position. Your grill
has a crossover ignition system that allows the
burner to light each side successively. Make sure the
left side of burner is lit.
7. If either side of burner fails to light, repeat Step 4 & 5.
If any or all burners fail to light after three or four
attempts following Steps 4-5, turn all knobs to the
“Off” position and close the LP gas cylinder valve to
dissipate any accumulated gas. Wait five minutes;
then repeat the lighting procedures. NOTE: If the
burner still fails to light, refer to the Troubleshooting
Section.
8. After ignition, turn the control knobs to “High” for 3-5
minutes and close the Hood to preheat the grill.
Preheat the grill before every cooking session.
If a burner goes out during operation, turn all knobs to
the “Off” position and close the LP cylinder valve to
dissipate any accumulated gas. Open hood and wait
five minutes before attempting to relight the grill.
To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury or death:
· Open Hood before lighting the grill to prevent an
explosion from any gas accumulation.
· If lighting attempts fail, or the burners go out during
operation, turn all control knobs “Off” to dissipate any
accumulation of gas. Accidental ignition could occur.
Wait five minutes before repeating lighting procedure.
· Light both left and right sides of burner to prevent gas
from accumulating.
· When reaching under the grill, avoid contact with hot
surfaces.

CHECK YOUR FLAME
Yellow Tip
Primarily Blue
Flame
Your burners have been preset by the manufacturer for
optimal flame performance. A blue flame, possibly with a
small yellow tip, is the result of the optimal air and gas
mixture.
(FIG. 15)
FIG. 15
Check the flame before each cooking session and throughout
the grilling season. Always check especially after long periods
of storing the grill. If the flame is significantly yellow in color,
the amount of LP gas in the air/LP gas mixture is not correct.
This could be due to a blocked burner from grease drippings
or from insects building a nest inside the burner or burner
opening. See How to Clean the Burners.
Hold flame near Burner.

GRILL COOKING
To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury, death or grill
damage:
· Always make sure the Grease Cup is empty and
properly installed in the wire ring under the Bowl before
cooking to prevent a grease fire .
· Do not leave any utensils on a hot Cooking Grid or
cookware.
Cooking on the Grids: The burners heat up the Flame
Diffusers under the Cooking Grids, which in turn heat the food
on the grill. The natural food juices from cooking fall onto the
hot Flame Diffusers below and vaporize. Rising smoke bastes
the food, giving it that unique barbecued flavor.
CAUTION
·
Do not preheat grids over 5 minutes. The porcelain coating
could be damaged.
·
Use only long-handled heat resistant plastic or wooden
utensils to avoid scratching the porcelain coating.
