BRINKMAN Vertex Sear, Owner'S Manual

Page: 11 / 64

LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS:
Follow the instructions exactly.
1. OPEN THE GRILL LID before attempting to light a burner so that fumes do not accumulate inside
the grill. An explosion could occur if grill lid is down.
2. Check that all burner control knobs and the cylinder valve are turned to the "OFF" position.
3. Turn on the fuel supply by rotating the cylinder valve knob counter-clockwise to full open.
4. DO NOT stand with head, body, or arms over the grill when lighting.
Note: If burner does not light or flame is too low, you may have spider or other insect blockage in
burner, or the flow limiting device has been activated. See "Burner Assembly/Maintenance"
under Proper Care and Maintenance, or "Regulator Resetting Procedure" under Connecting LP
Cylinder and Hose/Regulator to Grill.
LIGHTING THE MAIN BURNERS: LARGE AND SMALL FIREBOXES:
1. Open lid before lighting burner.
2. Make sure all control knobs are in the "OFF" position.
3. Select the burner to be lit. Push and turn the control knob of that burner
to the "HIGH" position.
4. Press the electronic igniter and hold for 3 – 5 seconds to light burner.
5. If ignition does NOT occur in 5 seconds, turn control knob to "OFF",
wait 5 minutes to allow gas to dissipate and repeat lighting procedure.
6. Repeat steps 3 – 5 for lighting each burner. Always use electronic igniter for lighting
each burner. If burner does not ignite using the push-button igniter, wait 5 minutes, see "Match Lighting the
Main Burners" section.
7. To turn off, turn each control knob clockwise until it locks in the "OFF" position. This does not turn off the gas
flow from the cylinder.
Note: Vertex Sear Burner must be “OFF” to use the two lower burners. The two burners under the
Vertex Sear Burner will not turn ON when the Vertex Sear Burner is in the “ON” position.
WARNING ! Make sure all knobs are in the “OFF” position to prevent gas from flowing.
MATCH LIGHTING THE SMALL AND LARGE FIREBOXES:
1. Open lid before lighting.
2. Turn the burner control knobs to "OFF".
3. Place paper match in the end of the matchlighter. Strike the match
and place through cooking grill and under heat tent approximately
1/2" (1 to 2 cm) from the burner to be lit.
4. Push and turn the control knob of that burner to the "HIGH" position.
The burner should light within 5 seconds.
5. If the burner does not light, turn the control knob to "OFF" and wait
5 minutes for gas to dissipate and repeat lighting procedure.
6. To light other burners, repeat steps 3 – 5 for each burner.
7. If the burner does not light within the first few attempts of match lighting, there is a
problem with the gas supply. Turn off the gas at the burner and cylinder. DO NOT
attempt to operate the grill until the problem is found and corrected. See "Trouble
Shooting" section of this manual.
