WARNING

: Attempting to light the burner with the lid closed may cause an explosion. Make` sure there are no 

obstructions of airflow to the gas unit. Spiders and insects can nest and clog the burner/venturi tube at the orifice. A clogged 
burner tube can lead to a fire beneath the appliance. 

2.     All valves must be in the “OFF” position. 
3.    Open cylinder valve. 
4.    Ignite only the burners you wish to use, using the same method for each: Push desired burner valve knob and rotate slowly 

about 1/4 counterclockwise until a click is heard. (See diagram to right.)  

The burner should light. If the burner does not light, return the valve knob to the “OFF”  
position immediately. Wait five minutes for the gas to clear and repeat the procedure.  
After burner is lit, repeat the procedure with any other burner desired. 

5.  Adjust valve knob(s) to desired cooking temperature. 
 

Using the Lighting Stick to Light the Main Burners

 

1.    Insert a match into the end of lighting stick Light the match.

 

2.    Once lit, put the lighting stick through the hole on the grill body to reach 

 the burner ports (See diagram to right.)

fire.
