Warning
: Burner valves are pre-tested at the factory to operate on natural gas. If you wish to convert or change it, be sure to
contact your grill distributor or dealer FIRST!
DANGER
To prevent fire or explosion hazard when testing for a leak
1. Always perform the “leak test“ as below before lighting the grill and each time the natural gas hose is connected for use.
2. Do not smoke or allow other sources of ignition in the area while conducting a leak test.
3. Conduct the leak test outdoors in a well-ventilated area.
4. Do not use matches, lighters or a flame to check for leaks.
5. Do not use grill until all leaks have been stopped. If you are unable to stop a leak, disconnect the natural gas supply, call for
gas appliance service or your local natural gas supplier.
Checking for Leaks
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 in the “OFF” position.
3. Spray some solution on the connection points of the natural gas hose.
4. Inspect the solution at the connections for bubbles. If no bubbles appear, the connection is secure.
5. If bubbles appear, you have a leak. Proceed to step 6.
6. Disconnect the natural gas hose from the valve and reconnect. Make sure the connection is secured.
7. Retest with solution.
8. If you continue to see bubbles, replace the quick release connector or/and natural gas hose.
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.
