OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
General Use of the Grill
Each main burner is rated at 13,500 BTU/Hr. The main grill burners encompass the entire cooking area
and are side ported to minimize blockage from falling grease and debris. Above the burners are flame
tamers. The igniter knobs are located on the center portion of the valve panel. Each rotary igniter is
labeled on the control panel.
Using the Grill
Grilling requires high heat for searing and proper browning. Most foods are cooked at a
“
HI
”
heat setting
for their entire cooking time. However, when grilling large pieces of meat or poultry, it may be necessary
to turn the heat to a lower setting after the initial browning. This method cooks the food thoroughly without
burning the outside.
Food cooked for a long time or basted with a sugar-based marinade may need a lower heat setting near
the end of its cooking time.
To begin:
1. Make sure the grill has been leak tested and is properly placed. (See page 18.)
2. Remove any remaining packing materials.
3. Light the grill burners using the Lighting Instructions on next page.
4. Turn the control knob(s) to the
“
IGNITE / HI
”
setting, and preheat the grill for 15 minutes. The grill lid
should be closed during the pre-heat period.
5. Place the food on the grill and cook to the desired degree of preparation. If necessary, adjust the heat
setting. The control knob may be positioned at any setting between
“
HI
”
and
“
LO
”
.
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
Before Lighting
Inspect the gas supply hose prior to turning on the gas. If there is evidence of cuts, wear, or abrasion, it
must be replaced prior to use.
Screw the regulator (type QCC1) onto the cylinder, and leak check the hose and regulator connections
before operating the grill (see the
“
Leak Testing
”
instructions on page 18).
Only the pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied with the unit should be used. Never substitute
regulators. If a replacement is necessary, contact customer service for proper replacement.
