Included Cooking Components
Before using the EdgeStar gas side burner for the first time, be sure to thoroughly wash [by
hand] the included cooking griddle under hot water with soap.
Do not wash in your
dishwasher . Allow it to dry before reinstalling in the side burner.
Operation
For an optimal grilling experience, this EdgeStar series of gas side burners includes a
combination of infrared burners and cast burners
, referred to hereafter as “main burner(s).”
Additionally, this EdgeStar side burner series comes standard with a rotisserie burner.
Instructions for using these burners are in the following sections.
Checking the Igniter
With gas turned off at the source, and with each of the burner control knobs in
the “OFF”
position, you can check to see that the igniter is working properly. Push the burner knob in fully
and turn it counterclockwise a quarter turn to the “HIGH” position. You should see a blue spark
at the end of the igniter pin. If you have a two burner side burner, repeat for the other burner.
Once you confirm that the igniters work, turn the control knobs clockwise back to the “OFF”
position.
Important: You must always have the side burner lid removed when lighting the gas
side burner. Otherwise, you risk build-up of gas and possible fire or explosion.
Important: To avoid risk of injury, always keep your face and body as far away as
possible from the side burner when lighting. As you proceed to operate the side burner,
note that surfaces may be hot and pose a burn hazard. Take care around the side
burner and make sure to never leave it unattended. Children should not operate the
side burner.
Important
: Once the burner(s) are lit, leave them on the “HIGH” setting for five minutes
before cooking anything. This will allow the side burner to preheat and burn off any
foreign matters or food objects left on the side burner.
