LIGHTING THE GRILL
Each burner is rated at 20,000 BTUs. The grill burners encompass the entire cooking area and are top ported to maximize
heat efficiency while the stainless steel radiant covers assure burner protection from falling grease and debris. These stain-
less steel radiants are seated above the burners.
TO LIGHT THE GRILL:
Push in and turn the desired burner control knob(counter-clockwise) to the left (HI) posi-
tion. As you turn the knob you will hear a click of the igniter. If you do not see the burner ignite when turning the knob to
the HI position, tun the knob OFF and then turn to HI again until the burner has ignited.
NOTE that on first use or when an LP tank has been replaced that there may be air in the gas line that needs to be purged,
so the push and turn to HI may need to be repeated several time to purge the line of air.
PRE-LIGHTING CHECKLIST
»
Ensure that all internal packaging has been removed.
»
Make sure the burners have been leak tested and are properly located and held down via the bracket at the back of the
burner.
»
Check that the radiant trays and grill racks are properly seated on their front and rear mounting pins.
»
Inspect the gas supply piping or hose prior to turning the gas “ON”. If there is evidence of cuts, wear, or abrasion, it
must be replaced prior to use.
»
DO NOT use the grill if the odor of gas is present. The pressure regulator supplied with the grill must be used.
Substitutions will void the warranty and may make the grill dangerous to use, causing serious injury.
»
If a replacement regulator is required, please contact the dealer, or factory for replacement.
»
Screw the regulator (type QCC1) into the tank cylinder valve. Leak test the hose and regulator connections with a
soap and water based solution prior to operating the grill.
