Your burners have been preset by the manufacturer for
optimal flame performance. A blue flame, possibly with a
small yellow tip, is the result of the optimal air and LP gas
mixture. (See diagram below)
The flame should be checked before the initial cooking ses-
sion and periodically throughout the grilling season, espe-
cially after storing the grill over a long period of time. If the
flame is significantly yellow in color, then you are not getting
the appropriate amount of LP gas in the air/LP gas mixture.
This could be a result of a blocked burner from grease drip-
pings or from insects building a nest inside the burner or
burner opening. You should follow the Burner Maintenance
section of this manual for cleaning the burners.
The cast iron burners heat up the Ceramic Briquettes
underneath the grill, which in turn heats the food on the grill.
The natural food juices produced during cooking fall onto
the hot Ceramic Briquettes below and vaporize. The subse-
quent rising smoke bastes the food as it travels upwards,
giving it that unique barbecued flavor.
Closing the Grill hood forms an ‘oven’ for roasting food,
such as roasts of meat, whole chickens, etc. When closed,
a large amount of heat is trapped inside the grill. Thus, it is
IMPORTANT to make sure that all the burners are turned
to the “low” position to prevent burning of the food. Avoid
lifting the hood unnecessarily as heat is lost every time the
hood is opened. Use the temperature gauge to check the
approximate temperature inside the grill.
After each cooking session, close the hood and turn the
grill burners to the “high” position and burn for five minutes.
This procedure will burn off cooking residue, thus making
cleaning easier.
The grill must be completely cooled before placing
a Grill Cover on the grill.
How to turn off your LP gas grill
1) When you have finished using your grill, turn the grill
Control Knobs clockwise to the “Off” position.
2) Turn off the gas at the LP cylinder valve by turning it
clockwise completely until it stops.
3) Wait until the grill is cool before closing the hood.
4) After the LP gas grill has cooled, a Grill Cover can
be placed on the grill.
WARNING! Never store an LP gas cylinder indoors
(empty or filled). If storing the gas grill indoors,
disconnect LP gas cylinder and store it outdoors
out of the reach of children.
· Always turn off the LP gas cylinder, at the LP
cylinder valve, when not in use. Allow the grill to
cool before handling parts or cleaning.
· Do not move an LP gas grill when in use or hot.
· Never touch hot surfaces. Use heat resistant
gloves, long-handled tongs, or cooking mitts at all
times since grill will become very hot.
· Do not wear loose clothing (for example: hanging
shirt tails, clothing with frills, etc.) around a LP gas
grill while in use or hot.
· Never lean your body over the LP gas grill when
lighting it or while it is in use or hot.
· Never douse the grill with water when its surfaces
are hot because it may cause grease to splatter or
the porcelain cooking grids to break.
