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:
1. Open lid before lighting burner.
2. Make sure all control knobs are in the "OFF" position.
3. Push and hold down the IGNITION BURNER control knob and turn SLOWLY
(2 to 3 seconds) to "HIGH". You should hear the igniter click.
Note: Step 3 may need to be repeated 2-3 times to light grill.
4. 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.
5. To light other burner, push and turn control knob to "HIGH".
Follow Step 4.
6. If burner does not ignite using the 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.
MATCH LIGHTING THE MAIN BURNERS:
1. Open lid before lighting.
2. Turn the burner control knobs to "OFF".
3. Place a paper match in the end of the matchlighter. Strike the match
and place through lighting hole in the left hand side of the grill to
approximately 1/2" (1 to 2 cm) from the burner.
4. Turn on the FAR LEFT burner control knob 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 burner, push and turn control knob to "HIGH". Follow Step 5.
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.
