USING THE GRILL: 

Grilling require

s high heat for searing and proper browning. Most foods are cooked at the “HI” heat 

setting for the entire cooking time. However, when grilling large pieces of meat or poultry, it may be 
necessary to turn the heat to a lower setting after the initial browning. This cooks the food through without 
burning the outside. Foods cooked for a long time or basted with a sugary marinade may need a lower 
heat setting near the end of the cooking time. 
 
Make sure the grill has been leak tested and is properly located. 
Remove any packing material. 
Light the grill burners using the instructions in this manual. 
Turn the control knob to “HI” and preheat the grill for 8 minutes.   

Notice:

 

The grill lid is to be closed during the appliance preheat period. 

Place  the  food  on  the  grill  and  cook  to  the  desired  doneness.  Adjust  heat  setting,  if  necessary.  The 
control knob may be set to any position between “HI” and “LO”. 
 

NOTE: 

The grill is designed to grill efficiently without the use of lava rocks or briquettes of any kind. Heat 

is radiated by the stainless steel flame tamers under the stainless steel cooking grids. 
 

NOTE:

  The  hot  grill  sears  the  food,  sealing  in  the  juices.  The  longer  the  preheat,  the  faster  the  meat 

browns.

Electrical Grounding Instructions 

1.  This  grill  is  equipped  with  a  three-prong  (grounding)  plug  for  your  protection 

against  shock  hazard  and  should  be  plugged  directly  into  a  properly  grounded 
three-prong receptacle. 

2.  Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug. 
3.  Keep any electrical supply cord and the fuel supply hose away from any heated 

surfaces. Remove and store the motor in a dry place when not use. 

 

 

USING ROTISSERIE KIT

 

1.  Take off the rotisserie kit from the grill. 
2.  Slide off the left fork. 
3.  Load the meat or poultry onto the rod. 
4.  Restore the left fork, put two forks into the meat or poultry as far as possible. Make sure the meat or 

poultry is located in the middle of the rod. Screw the wing nuts of the fork as tight as possible. 

5.  Wrap the food with 

butcher’s string (never use nylon or plastic string) to secure any loose portions, if 

necessary. 

6.  Restore the rotisserie kit into the motor. 
 

 

TIPS OF ROTISSERIE KIT

 

To place the meat or poultry on the spit, slide one of the forks onto the spit and secure the set screw. 
Then, insert the spit rod in the center of the meat or poultry, lengthwise. The food should then be centered 
on the spit rod and the remaining fork and secure the set screw. Place the spit rod in the grill and let the 
heavy side fall to the bottom, set the counter balance to the top and fasten in place. Periodically check the 
meat to ensure the spit rod is turning smoothly while cooking. Adjust the counter balance if necessary. 
 
The  only  accurate  way  to  tell  when  the  meat  is  done  is  to  use  a  meat  thermometer.  Insert  the 
thermometer into the center of the meat. Do not allow the thermometer to touch a bone as this will not 
give an accurate reading on the meat thermometer. 
 
Place a drip pan on top of the upper flavor shields and position the pan directly beneath the food on the 
spit rod. Depending on the flavor you desire, place liquid in the pan such as, water, juices or wine, chop 
up onions or add garlic, As the juices fall from the meat they will mix with the liquid and evaporate directly 
into the meat, this will prevent you from basting as this is a self-basting system

. Do not let the drip tray 

dry out.
