MAIN BURNER IGNITION & USAGE

MAIN BURNER IGNITION

Note: Summary lighting instructions are inside the left-hand cabinet door.

￿DANGER

Failure to open the lid while igniting the barbecue’s burners, or not waiting five minutes to allow the gas to clear if the barbecue does not light, may result in an explosive flare-up which can cause serious bodily injury or death.

A)Open the lid (1).

B)Make sure all burner control knobs are turned off (2). (Push control knob in and turn it clockwise to ensure that it is in the OFF position.)

￿WARNING: The burner control knobs must be in the OFF position before turning on the LP cylinder valve (3). If they are not in the OFF position, when you turn on the LP cylinder valve, the “excess gas flow control” feature will activate, limiting the flow of gas from the LP cylinder. If this should occur, turn OFF the LP cylinder valve and burner control knobs. Start over.

￿DANGER

When the “excess gas flow control” feature is activated, a small amount of gas is still flowing to the burners. After turning off the LP cylinder valve and burner control knobs, wait at least five minutes for the gas to clear before attempting to light the grill. Failure to do so may result in an explosive flare-up, which can cause serious bodily injury or death.

C)Turn the cylinder on by slowly turning the cylinder valve counterclockwise (3).

Electronic Ignition System

Each control knob operates an individual burner, and each burner ignites with an electronic igniter. The electronic ignition system ignites each burner individually with a spark from the igniter electrode inside the Gas Catcher™ ignition chamber. You generate the energy for the spark by pushing the electronic ignition button. You will hear it clicking.

D)Ignite the burners individually from left to right. Begin with the burner on the left; push control knob in and turn it to START/HI (4). Push and hold in the electronic ignition button (5). You will hear it clicking. Check that the left burner is lit by looking through the cooking grates. You should see a flame (6).

￿WARNING: Do not lean over the open barbecue.

E)Ignite center burner by pushing control knob in and turning it to START/HI (7). Then, push and hold in the electronic ignition button (5). You will hear it clicking. Check that the center burner is lit by looking through the cooking grates.

F)Ignite right burner by pushing control knob in and turning it to START/HI (8). Push and hold in the electronic ignition button (5). You will hear it clicking. Confirm that the right burner is lit by looking through the cooking grates.

￿WARNING: Each burner must be ignited individually by pushing the electronic ignition button. Failure to do so may cause a flare-up of gas which can cause serious bodily injury and damage to property.

￿WARNING: If any burner fails to ignite during lighting, within five seconds, stop, turn the burner control knob to OFF and wait five minutes to allow the gas to clear before you try again or light with a match.

TO EXTINGUISH

Push in and turn each burner control knob clockwise to the OFF position. Turn gas supply off at the source.
