WARNING: Do not lean over open barbecue while lighting.

6) Push igniter button until burner ignites.

CAUTION: Flame may be difficult to see on a bright day.

CAUTION: Your LP tank connection is equipped with an excess flow device. If it activates it reduces the flow of gas to the burner. If this should occur turn OFF the LP tank and turn the test valve OFF. Wait 5 minutes for the gas to clear. Then turn ON the LP tank and slowly turn the test valve ON and try to ignite again.

WARNING: If burner fails to ignite, turn tank valve handwheel OFF. Wait five minutes for gas to clear and follow Manual Lighting Instructions.

7)Turn gas supply OFF after charcoal has started to burn (approximately 3-5 min.).

Note - If you are cooking using the Indirect method, separate your Char-Baskets after turning gas supply OFF. Wear barbecue mitts and use long-handled tongs.

8)You can begin cooking when briquets have a light coating of grey ash (approx. 25-30 minutes).
