It operates at an economical low BTU rate. To preheat: after lighting, close lid and turn all burners to high (HH). Preheating to between 500° and 550° F (260° and 290° C) will take 10 to 15 minutes depending on conditions such as air temperature and wind.

WARNING: Check the bottom tray for grease build- up before each use. Remove excess grease to avoid a grease fire in the slide out bottom tray.
