Ignition System Power Supply

The ignition system utilizes a hot surface electronic ignition system with an AC power supply. 

Plugging in the Grill

A short, factory-supplied cord is connected to the grill’s electronic control box inside the main 
cabinet below the grill (see Figure 13:R). Run a customer-supplied, single-plug, grounded, outdoor-
rated extension cord into the grill cabinet through the opening in the floor pan that is protected by 
the rubber grommet. Connect the customer-supplied cord to the short, factory-supplied cord inside 
the cabinet. 

Be certain to connect the power to a GFI outlet. Check that the grill’s central system is receiving 
power by turning on the rotisserie motor (see Figure 15). 

 
      ELECTRICAL PRECAUTIONS:

1. 

To protect against electric shock, do not immerse cord or plugs in water or 
other liquid;

2. 

Unplug from the outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool 
before putting on or taking off parts;

3. 

Do not operate any outdoor cooking gas appliance with a damaged cord, 
plug, or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any 
manner.  Contact the manufacturer for repair;

4. 

Do not let the cord hang over the edge of a table or touch hot surfaces;

5. 

Do not use an outdoor cooking gas appliance for purposes other than 
intended;

6. 

When connecting, first connect plug to the outdoor cooking gas appliance 
then plug appliance into the outlet;

7. 

Use only a Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) protected circuit with this outdoor 
cooking gas appliance;

8. 

Never remove the grounding plug or use with an adapter of 2 prongs; and

9. 

Use only extension cords with a 3 prong grounding plug, rated for the power 
of the equipment, and approved for outdoor use with a W-A marking.
