Operation

Turning the Burners Off

1.Always turn the burner control knob(s) to the OFF position when cooking has been completed.

2.Promptly turn OFF the gas supply valve at the propane cylinder or at the main natural gas supply line.

3.Close the Hood of the Grill.

FLARE-UPS

“Flare-ups” sometimes occur when food drippings fall onto the hot sear plates or burners and ignite. Some flaring is normal and desirable, as it helps impart the unique flavors associated with grilled foods. Controlling the intensity of the flare-ups is also desirable, however, in order to avoid burned or unevenly cooked foods and to prevent the possibility of an accidental fire.

•WARNING: Always monitor the Grill carefully while cooking and turn the flame level down (LO), or OFF, if flare-ups intensify.

MATCH LIGHTING THE MAIN BURNERS:

1. Always open the Hood completely and inspect the Grill and burners to confirm that all components are properly positioned, before lighting the main burners.

WARNING: Never stand with your head directly over the Grill when preparing to light the main burners, to prevent possible bodily injury.

2. Always confirm that all of the burner control knobs are in the OFF position before opening the gas supply.

3. Always turn on the propane gas supply valve at the tank (1 to 2 turns) or turn on the main natural gas supply valve.

4. Insert a lit match or a butane lighter into the match lighting hole located on the left hand side of the base, (see Fig. 10).

5. Turn the left Burner Control Knob to the HI position
by pushing down on the knob and turning it	Fig. 10
