and the tank.
Visually check the connection between the burner
venturi pipe and orifice. Make sure the burner
venturi pipe fits over the orifice.
W
WARNING: Failure to inspect this
connection or follow these instructions
could cause a fire or an explosion
which can cause death, serious bodily
injury or damage to property.
2. Please refer to diagram for proper installation
(Figures 1 and 2).
3. If the burner pipe does not rest flush to the orifice,
please contact 1.800.762.1142 for assistance.
Tank/Gas Line Connection
1. Make 2-3 oz. of leak solution by mixing one part
liquid dishwashing soap with three parts water.
2. Make sure control knobs are “ OFF” position
(Figure 3).
3. Connect LP gas tank per “Installing LP Gas Tank”
section.
4. Turn LP gas tank valve to “OPEN.”

Operating Main Burners
First Use
1. Make sure all labels, packaging and protective
films have been removed from the grill.
2. Remove manufacturing oils before cooking on this
grill for the first time by operating the grill for at
least 15 minutes on (HIGH) with the lid closed.
This will “heat clean” the internal parts and
dissipate odors.
Lighting Instructions
W
CAUTION: Keep outdoor gas cooking
appliance area clear and free from
combustible materials, gasoline and
other flammable vapors and liquids.
W
CAUTION: Do not obstruct the flow of
combustion and ventilation air.
W
CAUTION: Check and clean burner/
venturi tubes for insects and insect
nests. A clogged tube can lead to a fire
beneath the grill.
W
CAUTION: Attempting to light the
burner with the lid closed may cause
an explosion.
1. Open lid.
2. Make sure there are no obstructions of airflow to
the burners. Spiders and insects can nest within
and clog the burner/venturi tube at the orifice. A
clogged burner tube can lead to a fire beneath the
appliance.
3. All control knobs must be in the “ OFF” position
(Figure 3).
4. Connect LP gas tank per “Installing LP Gas Tank” section.
5. Turn LP gas tank valve to “OPEN.”
6. Select burner to light. Push and turn control knob to (HIGH). The burner should light.
Repeat up to three times.
7. If ignition does not occur in 5 seconds, turn burner control knob “ OFF,” wait 5 minutes,
and repeat lighting procedure.
8. If igniter does not light burner, use a lit match secured with the lighting rod provided to
light burners manually. Access the burners through the cooking grid and heat plates.
Position the lit match near side of the burner (Figure 5).
Important: Always use the lighting rod provided when lighting burners with a match.
9. After lighting, observe the burner flame, make sure all burner ports are lit and flame height
matches illustration (Figure 6).
Note
: Each burner lights independently - repeat steps 5-9 for the other burners.
W
CAUTION: If burner flame goes out during operation, immediately turn
the control knobs to the (OFF) position, turn the LP gas tank valve
to “CLOSED” and open lid to let the gas clear for 5 minutes before re-
lighting.
Turning Off
1. Turn LP gas tank valve to “CLOSED.”
2. Turn all control knobs clockwise to the “ OFF” position.
Note: A “poof” sound is normal as the last of the LP gas is burned.
3. Disconnect LP gas tank per “Disconnect LP Gas Tank” instructions.
Direct Cooking
W
Caution: Do not leave grill unattended while preheating, cooking or
burning off food residue on (HIGH). If grill has not been cleaned, a
grease fire can occur.
Cooking directly over lit burners is ideal for searing in juices and grilling food requiring less than
25 minutes of grilling time, such as steaks, hamburgers, hot dogs, chicken parts, vegetables
and fruit.
1. Open lid and ignite the desired burner(s) per “Lighting Instructions” section.
2. Close lid and preheat grill on (HIGH).
3. Wear protective gloves, and use long handle tongs to place food onto cooking grids above
the lit burners.
4. Adjust controls to desired flame height.
5. With lid open or closed, cook until desired internal food temperatures are achieved.
6. Turn grill OFF per “Turning Off” instructions.
For more tips on direct cooking please see “Tips for Better Cookouts and Longer Grill Life.”
Indirect Cooking
W
Caution: Do not leave grill unattended while preheating, cooking or
burning off food residue on (HIGH). If grill has not been cleaned, a
grease fire can occur.
Not cooking directly over lit burners is ideal for slow cooking and foods requiring more than 25
minutes such as most roasts, loins, chops, whole chickens, turkey, fish and baked goods.
1. Open lid and ignite the desired burner(s) per “Lighting Instructions” section.
2. Close lid and preheat grill on (HIGH).
3. Wear protective gloves, and use long handle tongs to place food onto cooking grids above
the un-lit burners.
4. Adjust controls to desired flame height.
5. With lid closed, cook until desired internal food temperatures are achieved.
6. Turn grill OFF per “Turning Off” instructions.
For more tips on indirect cooking please see “Tips for Better Cookouts and Longer Grill Life.”
Controlling Flare-ups
W
CAUTION: Putting out grease fires by closing the lid is not possible.
1. If a grease fire develops, turn knobs “ OFF” and LP gas tank valve
“CLOSED.” Do not use water on a grease fire. This can cause the
grease to splatter and could result in serious burns, bodily harm
or other damage.
2. Do not leave grill unattended while preheating or burning off food
residue on (HIGH). If grill has not been cleaned, a grease fire can
occur that may damage the product.
W
WARNING: When cooking, fire extinguishing materials shall be

, close the turn
AND
lid the control knob(s) to “ OFF,” until the grease
burns out. Use caution when opening the lid as sudden flare-ups may occur.
If excessive flare-ups occur,
DO NOT
pour water onto the flames.
Minimize Flare-ups:
1. Trim excess fat from meats prior to cooking.
2. Cook high fat contents meats on (LOW) setting or indirectly.
3. Ensure that your grill is on a hard, level, non-combustible surface and the grease is
allowed to drain into grease cup.

place on upper cooking levels (warming rack).
W
WARNING: Never cover entire cooking area with aluminum foil.
8. To avoid losing natural juices, use long-handled tongs or spatulas instead of forks and turn
foods over just once during cooking.
9. When direct cooking, adjust your burners to different levels so foods can be prepared to
different internal temperatures in the same time frame.
10. When indirect cooking roasts and larger cuts of meat, place meat onto a roasting rack
