Lighting the Burner(s)
1. Make sure you have observed all safety warnings in this manual. Follow the instructions for
connecting the gas supply. NEVER turn on the grill without testing for leaks first. Keep all body
parts as far away from the grill as possible. Never smoke while lighting the grill.
2. Open the grill hood.
3. With all gas control (burner) knobs in the OFF position, open the gas supply.
4. For each burner you wish to operate, push the gas control (burner) knob in, and rotate
counterclockwise to the “High” position marking on the knob.
5. The Piezo-style ignition system will create a loud clicking noise as it produces a spark to ignite the
gas. You will be able to hear and see as the gas ignites; flames will become visible through the
cooking grates and ceramic briquette flame tamers.
6.
Close the lid and allow the burners to run on HIGH for about five minutes to burn off extra gas and
residue.
7. Open the lid and adjust the burner knobs to your desired cooking temperature.
If the burners fail to light:
1.
If the burner does not light on the first try, repeat immediately. On your second attempt, if the
burner does not light within five (5) seconds, turn the burner knob(s) completely off. Do not try
again for a minimum of five (5) minutes as the gas dissipates.
2.
After five (5) minutes, you may proceed to try to light the burner again using the procedures
outlined above.
3.
Once you successfully light the first burner, you may proceed to light the other burner(s), as
needed.
4. If, after a few rounds of trying to light the burner using the Piezo-style ignition, the burner still does
not light consider using the manual ignition method in the following section.
5.
Once you are done using the grill, push the burner knobs in, and rotate clockwise to the “Off”
position. You may hear a popping sound when the burners are turned off, which is normal.
6.
Immediately turn off your gas supply.
“Flashback” may occur in or around the burner tubes. Flashback is commonly recognized by a
“whooshing” sound. If this occurs, immediately turn off all burners and shut off the gas supply to the
grill. Allow grilling components to cool fully before handling them. Remove the burners and brush
them with a soapy water mixture to rid them of all foreign materials, dirt, debris, and food waste. Only
reinstall them after they have been thoroughly cleaned.
