STORAGE

More people are discovering the pleasure of year round grilling. However, if you choose
to store your grill for the winter or any extended length of time, follow these steps: 

•  Clean the cooking grids, then oil lightly with cooking oil, wrap in paper and then 

store the cooking grids indoors. 

•  Follow the same cleaning method above for the burners and any warming racks. 
•  Cover the grill if it is left outdoors.
•  When the grill is not in use, the gas must be turned off at the L.P. cylinder 

valve or main shut off valve, and stored outdoors in a well-ventilated area.

1. With 

Propane

appliance you can store the grill inside, PROVIDED the cylinder is

removed from the grill and stored outdoors in a well-ventilated area, out of the reach
of children. When the cylinder is disconnected from the grill, ensure the cylinder
valve safety cap is firmly threaded through onto the valve.

2. With 

Natural Gas

appliance, the gas must be turned off at the individual gas 

shut off valve and the hose must be disconnected from the gas supply piping 
system before storing the grill indoors. Install plastic covers to quick connect fittings.

After a period of storage or non-use, a leak test should be performed and the burner
venturis cleaned prior to use.

LIGHTING

Prior to lighting your grill, visually check all
hoses before each use for nicks, cracking,
abrasions or cuts. If the hose is found to be
damaged in any way, 

DO NOT USE YOUR

GRILL.

A replacement hose and regulator is

required (see ‘

PARTS LIST

’ in Assembly

Brochure).

IMPORTANT

•  Always raise the grill lid before lighting. 
•  Do not lean over the grill when lighting

the burner.  

•  Visually check the flames every time 

you light your grill (Figure 10). If the 
flame is abnormally small or smokey

yellow -- shut off the grill and check the
venturi tubes for blockage (see Figure 8)
or refer to the Troubleshooting Guide.

On grills with dual controls, the right control knob operates the right burner and the left
knob operates the left burner. On grills with triple control knobs the far left knob operates
the rear rotisserie burner. The side burner control knob is located on the side shelf with
the side burner. (Figure 9)
