Using Your Grill

Read all instructions before you operate your grill .

We recommend you wash your entire grill with soap 

and  water  prior  to  lighting  it  for  the  first  time.  Oils 

are used during the manufacturing process and some 

residual  oil  may  still  be  on  the  stainless  steel  parts 

of  your  grill.  Washing  will  reduce  the  possibility  of 

discoloration.  We  also  recommend  you  keep  your 

grill covered when not in use. This will minimize the 

amount of dust and dirt that accumulates on your grill 

and extend the life of your grill.
Remember  to  use  your  Cal  Flame  grill  safely  by 

following these reminders:
•  It  is  dangerous  to  use  barbecue  grills  and  side 

burners in any manner other than for what it is 

designed for.

•  Do not use charcoal in a gas grill or side burner.
•  Do not heat sealed containers such as cans or jars 

on  grills  or  side  burners.    Explosion  may  result 

resulting in injury or death.  Any sealed container, 

such as a pressure cooker, must have a properly 

operating  pressure  relief  valve  to  minimize 

explosion hazard.

•  Never  put  combustible  material  such  as  paper, 

cloth,  or  flammable  liquids  on  your  grill  at  any 

time.  Do not use grill, side shelves, cabinets, or 

any area around grill to store flammable materials.  

Basic Grill Operation

Before lighting, make sure all burner controls are off.  

Do  not  attempt  to  light  the  burners  if  the  smell  of 

gas is present. Check the connection with a soap and 

water solution after attaching the hose.  For LP units, 

make  sure  there  is  gas  in  the  tank  and  it  is  sitting 

upright. For natural gas units, make sure the shut off 

valve is on.
1.  Make sure the drip tray is in place.
2.  Light the grill burners using the instructions on the 

previous page.

3.  Turn  the  control  knob  to  HIGH  and  preheat  the 

grill for 15 minutes.  Close the top cover during 

the appliance preheat period.

4.  Place  the  food  on  the  grill  and  cook  to  desired 

completion. Adjust heat setting if necessary.  You 

may set the control knob to any position between 

HIGH and LOW.

5.  Allow the grill to cool and clean the drip tray after 

each use.

Do not leave the grill unattended while cooking.

Warning

NEVER

 cover the entire cooking or grill surface with griddles or pans. Overheating will occur and burners 

will not perform properly when combustion heat is trapped below the cooking surface.

CAUTION: 

NEVER spray water on a hot gas unit. This may damage porcelain or cast iron components.
