1.  Become familiar with safety guidelines at front of manual. DO NOT SMOKE WHILE LIGHTING GRILL OR 

CHECKING GAS SUPPLY CONNECTIONSI 

2.  If your grill fuel source is a LP gas cylinder, check to see that cylinder is filled. 
3.  Check the end of each burner tube to make sure it is properly located over each valve orifice. 
4.  Make sure all gas connections are securely tightened. TEST FOR LEAKS WITH A SOAP SOLUTION, NEVER WITH A 

FLAME. (Gas Leak Check instructions are on page 2). 

5.  Always open lid before lighting. 
6.  Set ALL BBQ Grill control knobs to “OFF” and open gas supply, LP cylinder or Natural Gas Valve. 
7.  Ignite only the burners you intend to use, using the same method for each: Push in control knob fully and rotate 

slowly (3 to 4 seconds) about 1/4 turn to the left (counter clockwise) until a click is heard. The 3 to 4 second 
duration should provide enough gas to light the burner. If the burner does not light, immediately return the control 
knob to “OFF”, wait several minutes for the gas to disperse, and repeat the process. After burner ignites, repeat 
procedure with any other burner needed. 

8.

 

Adjust control knob(s) to desired cooking temperature. 

 

NOTE: If for some reason, igniters fail to produce a spark at the electrode tip, burners can be lit with a match. 
 
NOTE: To light gas grill with a match, follow steps 1 through 6 above. Remove cooking grid and flame tamer from burner you 
wish to light. Insert lighted fireplace-type match or long-necked butane lighter placing flame near to burner ports. Press in control 
knob and rotate left to “HI” setting to release gas. Burner should light immediately. If more than one burner is needed, repeat 
procedure with each burner. Replace flame tamer and cooking grid. Turn off burners not needed, and adjust other burners to 
desired cooking temperature. 

 

Lighting Rotisserie Burner (if equipped): 
The rear infrared rotisserie burner allows for slow rotisserie cooking of meats and poultry. Infrared burners radiate heat onto the 
outer surface of the food. This allows cooking without the grease drippings burning on the flame tamers. 

 

To light Rotisserie Burner,  
1.  Always open lid before lighting. 
2.

 

Set ALL BBQ Grill control knobs to “OFF” and open gas supply, LP cylinder or Natural Gas Valve. 

3.

 

The Control knob is located at the middle of the Control Panel. Push in control knob fully and rotate slowly (3 to 4 seconds) 
about 1/4 turn to the left (counter clockwise) until a click is heard. The 3 to 4 second duration should provide enough gas to 
light the burner. If the burner does not light, immediately return the control knob to “OFF”, wait several minutes for any 
accumulated gas to clear out of the grill. Keep lid closed and operate burner at the “ON” position when using the rotisserie. 

 

WARNING:          Never operate Rotisserie Burner with main (other) burner(s) ON   

              Warming Rack must be removed when Rotisserie Burner is ON

 

Do not attempt to regulate the rotisserie burner by using the control knob. This control has a fixed setting and is not 

adjustable. 
NOTE
: Initially, the Ceramic Panel will have a blue flame that, after some time, will change to an orange flame and the Ceramic 
Panel will glow an orange color. This may not be evident in bright daylight. 
To light Rotisserie Burner with a match
, Follow steps 1 through 2 above. Insert lighted fireplace-type match or long-necked 
butane lighter placing flame near to the Ceramic Panel. Press in control knob and rotate left (counter clockwise) to “HI” or “ON” 
setting to release gas. Burner should light immediately.

OPERATING PROCEDURE 

 
Burn-off: 
Before cooking on your gas grill for the first time, burn the grill to get rid of any odors or foreign matter by igniting the 
burners, closing the lid, and operating at “HI” setting for about five minutes. You may then either set the controls to “OFF” or cook 
on your grill immediately by turning the control knobs to a lower setting.
