Using

We recommend you wash your entire grill with soap and water prior to lighting it for the first time. Oils are used during the manufacturing process and some residual oil may still be on the stainless steel parts of your grill. Washing will reduce the possibility of discoloration. We also recommend you keep your grill covered when not in use. This will minimize the amount of dust and dirt that accumulates on your grill and extend the life of your grill.

Remember to use your Cal Flame grill safely by following these reminders:

It is dangerous to use barbecue grills and side burners in any manner other than for what it is designed for.

Do not use charcoal in a gas grill or side burner.

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.

Do not heat sealed containers such as cans or jars on grills or side burners. Explosion may result resulting in injury or death. Any sealed container, such as a pressure cooker, must have a properly operating pressure relieve valve to minimize explosion hazard.

Never put combustible material such as paper, cloth, or flammable liquids on your grill at any time. Do not use grill, side shelves, cabinets, or any area around grill to store flammable materials.

Never operate main burners and rear infrared convection burners at the same time. Excessive grill temperatures will result.

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.

Warning

NEVER cover the entire cooking or grill surface with griddles or pans. Overheating will occur and burners will not perform properly when combustion heat is trapped below the cooking surface.

CAUTION: NEVER spray water on a hot gas unit. This may damage porcelain or cast iron components.
