Propane Tank Valve
WARNING: Never open the Tank Valve unless the Grill is being prepared for use,
to prevent the pooling of propane vapor.
• Always open the Valve immediately before lighting the Grill, and always close it immediately
after cooking has completed.
Burner Control Valves
• Two valves independently control gas flow to each burner,
as indicated on the front of the Control Panel. ( See Fig. 6 ).
• The OFF position is indicated by the dot above each knob.
A full range of flame adjustment is available from
High to Low. ( by turning a knob counterclockwise ).
Ignition System
• When the igniter Button is pushed, you will hear a click as the igniter module generates an
ignition spark to the burner. The burner should light within four seconds.
Lighting the Main Burner
NOTE:
When lighting the Grill for the first time, burn both burners on HIGH for at least 30 minutes to
burn off any manufacturing residues
.
WARNING: Never stand with your head directly over the Grill when preparing to
light the main burners, to prevent possible bodily injury.
1. Always open the Hood completely and always inspect the Grill and burners to confirm that all
components are properly positioned before lighting main burners.
2. Always confirm that all of the burner control knobs are in the
OFF position before opening the gas supply.
3. Turn on the propane gas supply valve at the tank, 1 to 2 turns ( see Fig.7 ).
4. Turn the Left Burner Control Knob to the HIGH position by pushing.
down on the knob and turning it counterclockwise.
5. Immediately push ignitor Button. The selected burner should light within
four seconds.
WARNING: IF THE SELECTED BURNER DOES NOT LIGHT, or goes out during
operation, immediately turn the burner control knob to the OFF position, to
prevent gas buildup.
Wait five minutes for the gas to clear and then repeat the preceding starting
procedure.
If the burner will not light when the ignitor, follow the match lighting
instructions (see Page 15 ).
