Operating Your Barbecue

Basic Grill Operation

Before lighting, make sure all burner controls are off. Do not attempt to light the burners if the smell of gas is present. Check the connection with a soap and water solution after attaching the hose. For LP units, make sure there is gas in the tank and it is sitting upright. For natural gas units, make sure the shut off valve is on.

1.Make sure the drip tray is in place.

2.Light the grill burners using the instructions on the previous page.

3.Turn the control knob to HIGH and preheat the grill for 15 minutes. Close the top cover during the appliance preheat period.

4.Place the food on the grill and cook to desired completion. Adjust heat setting if necessary. You may set the control knob to any position between HIGH and LOW.

5.Allow the grill to cool and clean the drip tray after each use.

Do not leave the grill unattended while cooking.

Cooking with the Rotisserie

The rotisserie burner is an infrared type, which provides intense searing radiant heat. It is designed to cook items from the back using infrared heat. The location of the burner allows the placement of a rotisserie- basting pan (NOT included) beneath the food to collect juices and drippings for basting and gravy.

The rotisserie does not require and additional outlet as it is powered by a 12-volt input located on the side of the grill connected with a sainless steel sheathed power cable.

1.To load the rotisserie rod, hold the handle firmly while sliding one of the fork assemblies (prongs facing away from the handle) onto the rod. Push the rod through the center of the food, then slide the other holder (prongs toward the food) onto the rod. Center the meat on the rod and push the fork assemblies firmly together. Tighten the thumbscrews. To secure any loose portions of your meat, use butcher string (never use nylon or plastic string). Place a basting pan under the food to collect the drippings.

2.To use the rotisserie, first mount the motor on the left side of the grill. Place securely onto support bracket.

3.The rod of the rotisserie system is assembled into the motor by placing the pointed end into the motor and resting the threaded end on the support at the side of the grill. Once the rod is pushed as far as possible into the motor, the grooved end of the rod should rest on the right side bracket.

4.If necessary, to offset unbalanced loads, slide the counter weight on to the rod. With the counter weight loose, allow the loaded rod to rotate and come to a stop. Now rotate the counter weight above the rod in a vertical position and tighten the thumbscrew. You can slide the counter weight away from or closer to the rotisserie rod as needed for balanced operation. Once lit, the rotisserie burner will reach cooking temperature in about one minute. The orange/red glow will even out in about five minutes.
