DANGER
To prevent fire or explosion hazard when testing for a leak:
1. Always perform the “leak test “on page 15 before lighting the grill and each time the cylinder is connected for use.
2. Do not smoke or allow other sources of ignition in the area while conducting a leak test.
3. Conduct the leak test outdoors in a well-ventilated area.
4. Do not use matches, lighters or a flame to check for leaks.
5. Do not use grill until all leaks have been sopped, if you are unable to stop a leak, disconnect the natural gas supply valve, and call
for gas appliance service or your local natural gas supplier.
Checking for Leaks
1. Make a 2-3 oz. of leak solution by mixing one part liquid dishwashing soap with three parts water.
2. Make sure control knobs are in the “OFF” position.
3. Spray some solution on the connection points of the natural gas hose.
4. Inspect the solution at the connections, looking for bubbles. If no bubbles appear, the connection is secure.
.
5. If bubbles appear, you have a leak. Go to step 6.
6. Disconnect natural gas hose from gas supply and side burner valve connection and reconnect, make sure the connection is
secure.
7. Retest with solution.
8. If you continue to see bubbles, replace the quick release connector or/and natural gas hose.
Lighting Your Grill
Danger:
Failure to open lid while igniting the barbecue’s burners or not waiting 5 minutes to allow gas to clear if the barbecue
does not light ,may result in an explosion, which could cause serious bodily injury or death.
WARNING
: Never stand with your head directly over the grill when preparing to light the main burners, to prevent possible
bodily injury.
Main Burner
1. Open lid while lighting burners.
WARNING
: Attempting to light the burner with the lid closed may cause an explosion. Make sure there are no obstructions of
airflow to the gas unit. Spiders and insects can nest and clog the burner/venturi tube at the orifice. A clogged burner tube can
lead to a fire beneath the appliance.
2.
All valves must be in the “OFF” position.
3. Open cylinder valve.
4. Ignite only the burners you wish to use, using the same method for each:
Push desired burner valve knob and rotate slowly about 1/4 counter-clockwise until a click is heard. The burner should light.
If the burner does not light, return the valve knob to the “OFF” position immediately. Wait five minutes for the gas to clear and
repeat the procedure. After burner is lit, repeat the procedure with any other burner desired.
5. Adjust valve knob(s) to desired cooking temperature.
