Z WARNING

Your grill will get very hot. Always wear a flame retardant BBQ Mitt when cooking on your grill. Never lean over cooking areas while using grill. Do not touch cooking surfaces, Lid, grill housing or other parts while grill is in operation,

or until the grill has cooled down after use. Failure to comply with these instructions

may result in serious bodily injury.

Burn-Off

Before cooking on your gas grill for the first time, you will want to "bum off' the grill to eliminate any odor or foreign matter. Just ignite the burners, lower the Lid,

and operate grill on the HIGH setting for three to five minutes.

CAUTION:

Operating your grill on the HIGH setting for longer than five minutes may damage certain parts of your grill. Do not leave your grill unattended.

Preheating

To preheat, light your grill on HIGH, lower the Lid and followthis timetable:

For high temperature cooking, preheat grill 3 to 5 minutes.

For low temperature cooking, preheat grill 3 minutes.

To slow cook, preheating is not necessary.

Cooking Temperatures

High setting: Only use this setting for fast warm-up, searing steaks or chops and for burning food residue off the grill after cooking is complete. Never use the HIGH setting for extended cooking.

Medium to Low Settings: Most recipes specify medium to low settings, including all smoking, rotis- serie cooking and for cooking lean cuts such as fish.

NOTE: Temperature settings will vary with the temperature and the amount of wind outside your home.

Direct Cooking

The direct cooking method can be used with the supplied Cooking Grids and food placed directly over the lit grill Burners. Direct Cooking requires the Grill Lid to be open. This method is ideal for many recipes including deep frying, searing and whenever you want meat, poultry or fish to have an open-flame barbecued taste.

Indirect Cooking

The indirect cooking method can also be used with the supplied Cooking Grids. To cook indirectly, the food should be placed on the left or right side of your grill with the Burner lit on the opposite side. Or place your food on the Secondary Cooking Rack mounted inside your grill bowl and light the 2 outer grill Burners.

Either way, indirect cooking must be done with the Lid down.

Seasoning Cooking Grids

Before and after each cookout, apply a thin layer of cooking oil, spray or vegetable shortening to each

Cooking Grid. Be sure to coat the entire surface includ- ing edges and any areas with chipped porcelain. Insert the Cooking Grids into your warm grill for 2 to 3 minutes.

Flare-Ups

The fats and juices dripping from grilled food can

cause flare-ups. Since flare-ups impart a favorably, distinctive taste and color to food cooked over an

open flame, they should be accepted up to a point.

Nevertheless, uncontrolled flaring can result in a ruined meal.

Z WARN I NG

Do not line the bottom of the grill housing with aluminum foil, sand or any substance that will restrict the flow of grease into the Grease Draining Tray and Receptacle.

Failure to comply with these instructions could result in a fire or explosion which could cause serious bodily injury, death, or property damage.

FOR YOUR SAFETY

Before the first use and at the beginning of each season:

1.Read all safety, lighting and operating instructions.

2.Check gas valve orifices, burner tubes and burner ports for any obstructions.

3.Perform gas leak check.

Before each use of your grill:

1.Pull out the Grease Tray and remove all grease and food debris to prevent grease fire hazard.

2.Be sure the grill is positioned outdoors at least

24 inches from the back and side of any combus- tible surface.
