MAIN BURNER IGNITION & USAGE

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).

D)Ignite the burners individually from left to right. Begin with the burner on the left. Put match in the match holder and strike match.

WARNING: Do not lean over the open barbecue.

E)Ignite center burner by putting match in the match holder and striking match. Then, insert match holder with lit match down through cooking grates, past the Flavorizer® bars and adjacent to the center burner. Push control knob in (7) and turn it to START/HI to ignite the center burner. Check that the center burner is lit by looking through the cooking grates.

F)Ignite right burner by putting match in the match holder and striking match.Then, insert match holder with lit match down through cooking grates, past the Flavorizer® bars and adjacent to the right burner. Push control knob in (8) and turn it to START/ HI to ignite the right burner. Check that the right burner is lit by looking through the cooking grates.

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. ◆
