Lighting Infrared Burner 

1.  Open lid while lighting burner. 
2.  Make sure the control knob is locked in the OFF position. 
3. Open 

cylinder 

valve. 

4.  Push and turn control knob to HIGH setting. After lighting, please observe the ceramic plate on the surface of burner; it 

should feel warm after 5-10 seconds and the color of the ceramic plate should turn red in 2-3 minutes. 

5.  If burner does not light on the first try, turn the control knob to its OFF position and wait 5 minutes for gas to clear before 

trying again. If burner flame goes out during operation, immediately turn the gas OFF and open lid to let the gas clear for 
about 5 minutes. Attempt to re-light. 

6.  Clean your grill after each use, DO NOT use abrasive or flammable cleansers, as it will damage the parts of this product and 

may start a fire. Clean with warm soapy water. 

 
Observing the Heat and Color of the Infrared Ceramic Burner when lit 

      Flame of infrared burner might be visible in shaded area. 

      After burner is lit, it should feel warm in 5-10 seconds and color of the ceramic plate turns red in approximately 2-3 minutes. 

WARNING: 

Adjusting the air-shutter while the grill is on operation. If it still hot, please wear protective gear and be careful. Failure to follow 
this instruction could cause personal injury. 
 

Flare-ups 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Flare-ups” sometimes occur when food drippings fall onto the hot heat distribution plate 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 
necessary, however, in order to avoid burned or unevenly cooked foods and to prevent the possibility of accidental fire. 

WARNING: 

 
Always monitor the grill closely when cooking and turn the flame level down to LOW or OFF if flare-ups intensify. 
 
Shutting Off Burners 

1.  Always turn the valve knob(s) clockwise to the ‘’HIGH’’ position, and then press and turn it to ‘’OFF’’. Never force the knob

 

without pressing it. This could damage the valve.

 

2.  Promptly turn the gas supply to the “OFF” position at the propane cylinder.

 

3.  Close the lid of the grill.

 

Excess flow safety valve reset procedure 

● 

The new regulators are equipped with a safety device that restricts the gas flow in the event of a gas leek. However, 
unsafe practices of grill operation could activate the safety device without having a gas leak. 

● 

A sudden shut off of the gas flow typically occurs if you open the LP tank valve rapidly, or if one or more of the burner 
control knobs is in an open position when opening the LP tank valve. 

● 

This procedure effective with all LP Tank sizes as well as Natural Gas. When performing the procedure on a Natural Gas 
model, simply substitute "Natural Gas valve" for "LP Tank 

 

● 

To ensure the procedure is safely and successfully performed, please carefully follow these instructions:

 

1. 

Close the LP tank valve.

 

2. 

Turn all burner control knobs to the OFF position.

 

3. 

Disconnect the regulator from the LP tank.

 

4. 

Open the lid of the grill.

 

1.  Release the screw on venturi tube. 
2.  Adjust the flame by turning the collar on 

head of venturi tube from back side of the 
grill and do not take apart the venturi tube. 

3.  Tighten the screw and make certain it is 

secured. 

 

 

1.  Overlap 14 mm between

venturi tube and nozzle
when assembling. 

2.  Keep the center line of 

venturi tube and nozzle 
on one line. 

 

End edge should face towards upside.
