Burn-Off

[] Before cooking on your gas grill for the first time, you should "burn off" the grill to eliminate any odor or foreign matter. Ignite the burners, lower the Lid, and operate grill on HIGH setting for 3 to 5 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 when in use.

Preheating

[] To preheat, light your grill on HIGH, lower the Lid and follow this 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: The HIGH Control Knob setting should only be used to pre-heat your grill the first 3-5 minutes and for burning food residue off the grill for 3-5 minut- es 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, rotisserie cooking and cooking lean cuts such as fish.

An Important Note About Cooking Temperatures

[] Unlike the controlled environment inside your kitchen,

variables like outside temperatures, direction

and conditions of wind, as well as grill location will affect your grill's heat distribution. Because these conditions vary, no two cooking situations are alike.

For this reason, we recommend you monitor your grill closely so you can adjust heat settings and rotate

foods as needed to prevent overcooking and ensure the most delicious results every time.

The middle and back primary cooking areas offer the highest heat for searing and grilling.

The Secondary Cooking Rack offers medium heat for

preparing breads and firm vegetables like potatoes and corn.

The front primary cooking area offers less heat and is

ideal for preparing delicate foods and for keeping cooked foods warm.

DirectCooking

[] 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 searing, grilling, deep frying and whenever you want foods 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 and light the outer grill Burners. Either way, indirect cooking must be done with the Lid down.

Prepare Cooking Grids for Grilling

[] Greasing the cooking surface will help keep foods from sticking during the cookout and reduces the amount of cleanup required. Use a brush to apply a thin layer of cooking oil or vegetable shortening onto each Cooking Grid before each cookout. We do not suggest spray type oils unless they are specified for

high-temperature cooking. Be sure to coat the entire cooking surface including edges and any areas with chipped porcelain.

Flare-Up

[] 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. To minimize flare-ups use a drip pan under foods that produce a lot of grease, like ribs.

Failure to comply with these instructions could

result in a fire or explosion that could cause serious bodily injury, death or property damage.

Never line the bottom of the grill housing or

Savor Plates ® with aluminum foil, sand or any

substance that will restrict the flow of grease into the Grease Draining Tray and Receptacle.

Before each use of your grill: Pull out the Grease Tray and remove all grease and food debris to prevent grease fire hazard.

Use your grill at least 3 feet away from any

wall or surface. Use your grill at least 3 feet

away from combustible objects that can melt or catch fire (such as vinyl or wood siding, fences

and overhangs) or sources of ignition including pilot lights on water heaters and live electrical appliances.

Never use your gas grill in a garage, porch, shed, breezeway or any other enclosed area.

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.
