Caution: Attempting to light the burner with the lid closed may cause an explosion.

1.Make sure all labels, packaging and protective films have been removed from the grill.

2.Open lid during lighing.

3.Make sure there are no obstructions of airflow to the gas unit. Spiders and insects can nest within and clog the burner / venturi tube at the orifice.

4.Connect LP gas tank per “Connect LP Gas Tank” instructions.

5.The regulator/control knob must be in the “OFF ” position. (Figure 2)

6.Turn the control knob to (HIGH).

7.Press the Igniter button repeatedly (3 to 4 times) to light burner.

8.If ignition does not occur in 5 seconds, turn regulator/control knob to “OFF ” position, wait 5 minutes and repeat lighting procedure.

9.If igniter does not light burner, use a lit match to light burner manually. Access the burner through the hole in bottom bowl as indicated. (Figure 6)

10.Turn the regulator/control knob to (LOW) and position the lit match near side of the burner.

11.After lighting, observe the burner flame. Make sure all burner ports are lit and flame height matches illustration. (Figure 7)

Caution: If burner flame goes out during operation, immediately turn the regulator/control knob “OFF ” and open lid to let the gas clear for 5 minutes before re-lighting.

Burner Connections

1.Make sure the regulator/control knob is securely fastened to the burner.

Note: The brass nut should be 1/4 to 1/2 turn past tight. The regulator will rotate 360º even when the brass nut is tightened.

If your unit was assembled for you, visually check the connection between the burner and regulator/ control knob. (Figure 4)

WARNING: Failure to inspect this connection or follow these instructions could cause a fire or an explosion which can cause death, serious bodily injury, or damage to property.

2.If the burner and regulator/control knob do not fit properly or if you have any questions please contact 1.800.762.1142 for assistance.

Tank/Gas Line Connection

1.Make 2-3 oz. of leak solution by mixing one part liquid dishwashing soap with three parts water.

2.Make sure regulator/control knob is in the “OFF ” position. (Figure 2)

3.Spoon several drops of solution, or use squirt bottle, at all “X” locations. (Figure 5)

a. If any bubbles appear remove the LP gas tank and reconnect, making sure the connection is secure.

b. If you continue to see bubbles after several attempts, remove the LP gas tank per “Disconnect LP Gas Tank” instructions, and contact 1.800.762.1142 for assistance.

c. If no bubbles appear after one minute, wipe away solution and proceed.

Cooking

Caution: Do not leave grill unattended while preheating or burning off food residue on (HIGH). If grill has not been cleaned, a grease fire can occur.

1.Open lid and ignite burner per “Lighting Instructions”.

2.Close lid and preheat grill on (HIGH).

3.Adjust regulator/control knob to desired temperature.

4.Wearing protective gloves lift lid by handle(s) and use long handle tongs to place food onto cooking grids above the lit burners.

5.With lid open or closed, cook until desired internal food temperatures are achieved.

6.Turn grill “OFF” by turning regulator/control knob to the “OFF ” position. Remove LP gas tank, per “Disconnect LP Gas Tank” instructions, and properly store tank.

Controlling Flare-ups

Caution: Putting out grease fires by closing the lid is not possible.

•Do not use water on a grease fire. This can cause the grease to splatter and could result in serious burns, bodily harm or other damage. If a grease fire develops, turn regulator/control knob “OFF ”.

•Do not leave grill unattended while preheating or burning off food

residue on (HIGH). If grill has not been cleaned, a grease fire can occur that may damage the product.

WARNING: When cooking, fire extinguishing materials shall be readily accessible. In the event of an oil/grease fire, do not attempt to extinguish with water. Use type BC dry chemical fire extinguisher or smother with dirt, sand or baking soda.

Flare-ups are a part of cooking meats on a grill, and adds to the unique flavor of grilling.

Excessive flare-ups can over cook your food and cause a dangerous situation for you and your grill.

Important: Excessive flare-ups result from the build-up of grease in the bottom of your grill.

If excessive flare-ups occur, DO NOT pour water onto the flames.

If grease fire occurs, close the lid AND turn the regulator/control knob to “OFF ”, until the grease burns out. Use caution when opening the lid as sudden flare-ups may occur.

2.Remove manufacturing oils before cooking on this grill for the first time by operating the

grill for at least 15 minutes on (HIGH) with the lid closed. This will “heat clean” the internal parts and dissipate odors.
