Before lighting the grill
WARNING: IMPORTANT!
Inspect the gas supply piping or hose prior to turning the gas on. If there is evidence of cuts, wear or abrasion, it must be replaced prior to use. Any replacement pressure regulators or hose assembly must be the type specified by the manufacturer.
For LP use, the pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied with the unit must be used.
This LP tank is equipped with overfill protection. When you refill or trade in your tank, make sure the one you receive also has overfill protection.
If the grill uses LP gas, connect the regulator to the LP tank and check the hose and regulator connections for leaks with a soap and water solution before operating the grill.
Keep a spray bottle of soapy water near the gas supply valve and check the connections for gas leaks before each use.
Turn all knobs to OFF then turn on the gas supply.
Do not use the grill if the odor of gas is present.
To light the grill
Always keep your face and body as far away from the grill as possible when lighting.
Open the lid, push and turn the grill control knob to the LITE position and immediately turn the rotary igniter knob of the spark igniter next to the grill control knob. You’ll hear a snapping sound. At the same time a spark will be provided at the grill burner.
It may be necessary to turn the rotary igniter knob several times until the burner is lit.
If the burner does not light in 4 seconds, turn both knobs to OFF and wait 5 minutes, for any accumulated gas to dissipate, before trying again.
If the burner will not light after several attempts the burner can be match lit. Remove the grill rack over the burner(s) you wish to light. If you’ve just attempted to light the burner with the igniter, allow 5 minutes for any accumulated gas to dissipate. Keep your face as far away from the grill as possible and pass a lit, long stem match through the lava radiant and position it near the burner ports. Make sure that the match is adjacent to the burner ports. Push and turn the control knob, which is centered on the burner you wish to light, to LITE. If the burner does not light in 4 seconds turn the knob OFF. Wait 5 minutes and try again. If the burner will not light after several attempts, see the Problem Solver in the back of this guide.
NOTE:
•Do not attempt to light the grill if the odor of gas is present. Call for service.
•Always wait 5 minutes before relighting a hot grill.
