Infrared Burner Lighting Instructions
1. Always remove the cover before lighting.
2. Keep your head and body at least 1 foot away when
lighting the burner. Do not lean over an open burner.
3.
Turn the burner on the “HIGH” position, and depress the
electronic ignitor until the burner lights.
4.
If the burner fails to light, turn control knob “OFF”, wait 5
minutes for gas to clear and try lighting again.
5.
If the ignitor doesn’t spark, check the gap between the
wire probe burner screen. It should be approximately
3/16 inches wide. If it is too small, the spark may be inef-
ficient. Gently readjust the wire probe as needed. If the
gap is normal, check the wire connections at the spark
module and ignitor probes, located underneath the con-
trol panel.
6.
If the ignitor still doesn’t work, try replacing the battery.
Remove the collar around the ignitor button by turning it
counter-clockwise. Replace the AAA battery,

side
down.

In the unlikely event these previous measures don’t
work, you can light the burner manually. Turn the burner
control knob to “OFF”. Remove the cooking grid from
above the burner and ignite a match. Place the match
directly on the burner screen, remove your hand from
above the burner and turn the burner control knob on
“HIGH”. Once the burner is lit, you can replace the cook-
ing grid.

Infrared Care and Maintenance
1. After each use, remove the cover and light the burner on
“HIGH” and burner for 5 minutes. This will burn off any food
drippings and enhance the burner performance and increase
the burner longevity.
2. Never use water or liquid chemicals to clean the ceramic burn-
er. Burner may be damaged.
Burner failure caused by im-
proper care and maintenance is not covered under war-
ranty.
3. If the burner develops ash over the surface, clean it gently with
a vacuum cleaner. Use a brush attachment so as not to dam-
age the burner.
4. If the burner should get wet, it is important to dry it out com-
pletely before attempting to use the burner.
IMPORTANT:
Replace Cover When Burner Is Not In Use.
5. Never let anything heavy, hard or sharp fall onto the burner.
The ceramic is very fragile and can easily be damaged.

Connecting LP Bottle
Use propane bottle with capacity of 14.1 oz.
1. Make sure the burner control valve is in the off position before
attaching propane bottle.
2. Attach the propane bottle to the infrared side grill by pushing the
bottle slightly while turning clockwise into the regulator. Turn
until a snug fit is obtained.
Check For Gas Leaks
1. Check the connection between the tank and the regulator for gas
leaks. Mix a couple of tablespoons of liquid detergent with an
equal amount of water.
2. Be sure to leave the control valve in the off position. Wet the con-
nection with the soap solution and watch for bubbles. If bubbles
form or if a bubble grows, there is a leak.
3. If there is a leak, check the fitting, make sure it is tight, recheck
connection for leaks.
4. Check for gas leaks each time you disconnect or connect the gas
supply.
