Lighting Your Grill
DANGER:
Failure to open lid while igniting the grill’s burners or not waiting five minutes to allow gas to clear if the grill does not light, may
result in an explosion, which could cause serious bodily injury or death.
WARNING:
Never stand with your head directly over the grill when preparing to light the main burners, to prevent possible bodily injury.
Lighting Main Burner
1. Open
lid during lighting.
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. Make sure all control knobs are in OFF position.
3. Open natural gas valve.
4. Ignite only the burners you wish to use, using the same method for each:
Push and turn control knob slowly about 1/4 turn counter-clockwise until a click is heard.
(See diagram to right.) If ignition does not occur within 5 seconds, turn the burner control(s) off,
wait 5 minutes and repeat lighting instructions.

.
After burner is lit, repeat the procedure with any other burner desired.
6. 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 cooking grid and place the flame next to
the burner ports found along the sides of the desired burner (See diagram to right.)
3. Press the valve knob and rotate it counterclockwise to the ‘’HIGH’’
position. The burner should light immediately. If more than one burner
is desired, repeat the procedure 2-3 until all desired burners are lit.
4. Adjust
valve
knob(s)
to
the desired cooking temperature.
Precautions:
1. After lighting, observe the burner flame. Make sure all burner ports are lit.
2. If the burner flame goes out during operation, immediately turn the gas “OFF”. Open lid
to let the gas clear for at least 5 minutes before re-lighting.
3. Before cooking on the grill for the first time and operate the grill for approximately 15 minutes with the lid closed and the
gas turned on “HIGH”. This will “heat clean” the internal parts, dissipate odor from the manufacturing process and painted
finish.
4. Clean the grill after each use. DO NOT use abrasive or flammable cleaners. This may damage parts of the grill and cause
a fire.
Lighting Side Burner
1. Open lid before lighting side burner.
2. Make sure control knob is in OFF position.
3. Open natural gas valve.
Push the side burner valve knob and rotate slowly about 1/4 counterclockwise
until a click is heard. The burner should be lit.
If the burner does not light, repeat
2 or 3 more times.
If ignition does NOT occur in 5 seconds turn the burner controls to OFF,
wait 5 minutes, and repeat the lighting procedure.
4. Adjust valve knob to the desired cooking temperature.
