Cooking Instructions
Initial Lighting : When lit for the first time, the gas grill emits a slight odor. This is a normal temporary
condition caused by the “burn-in” of internal paints and lubricants used in the manufacturing process and
does not occur again. Simply run the main burners on high for approximately one-half hour.
Main Burner Use : When searing foods, we recommend preheating the grill by operating all main burn -
ers in the high position with the lid closed for approximately 10 minutes. Food cooked for short periods
of time (fish, vegetables) can be grilled with the lid open. Cooking with the lid closed will ensure higher,
more even temperatures that can reduce cooking time and cook meat more evenly. Food that has a cook -
ing time longer than 30 minutes, such as roasts, can be cooked indirectly (with the burner lit opposite to
the food placement). When cooking very lean meats, such as chicken breasts or lean pork, the grids can
be oiled before pre-heating to reduce sticking. Cooking meat with a high degree of fat content can create
flare-ups. Either trim the fat or reduce temperatures to inhibit this. Should a flare-up occur, move food
away from the flames and reduce the heat. Leave the lid open. Learn more grilling techniques and deli -
cious recipes by acquiring Napoleon’s cookbooks.
Rear Burner Use (If Equipped): Remove the warming rack prior to use, the extreme heat will damage the
warming rack. Cooking grids should also be removed if they interfere with the rotisserie. The rear burner
is designed to be used in conjunction with the rotisserie kit available from your dealer. See the rotisserie
kit assembly instructions.
To use the counterbalance - remove the rotisserie motor from the gas grill. Place the spit with meat being
cooked across the hangers inside the grill. the meat will naturally hang with the heavy side down. tighten
the counterbalance arm and weight so the arm is facing up. Slide the counterweight in or out to balance
the load and tighten in place. Re-install the motor and begin cooking. Place a metal dish underneath the
meat to collect drippings for basting and naturally delicious gravy. Basting liquid may be added as required.
To seal in juices, first operate rear burner on high until brown, then reduce the heat to thoroughly cook
foods. Keep the lid closed for best results. Your roasts and fowl will brown perfectly on the outside and
stay moist and tender on the inside. For example, a 3-pound chicken on the rotisserie will be done in ap -
proximately 1½ hours on medium to high. Search Grill Master Recipes at https://www.napoleon.com/en/

ATTENTION!
Barbecue sauce and salt can be corrosive and will cause rapid deterioration of
the gas grill components unless cleaned regularly. When finished cooking disassemble rotisserie
components, wash thoroughly with warm soapy water and store indoors.
Di rect Cooking : Place food to be cooked on the grill directly over the heat. this method is generally used
for searing or for foods that do not require prolonged cooking times such as hamburgers, steaks, chicken
pieces, or vegetables. The food is first seared to trap-in the juices and flavor, and then the temperature is
lowered to finish cooking the food to your preference.
Indire ct Cooking : With one or more burners operating, place food to be cooked on the grill over a burner
that is not operating. The heat circulates around the food, cooking slowly and evenly. Cooking with this
method is much the same as cooking in your oven and is generally used for larger cuts of meats such
as roasts, chickens or turkeys, but can also be used for cooking foods that are prone to flare-ups or for
smoking foods. Lower temperatures and slower cooking times result in tender foods.
Smoker Burner : The smoker burner is designed to be used in conjunction with the smoker tray. Follow
the smoker burner lighting instructions and operate the smoker burner on high for 10 minutes, reducing
heat as required.
Open the smoker drawer and place a small amount of wood chips into the solid portion of the smoker tray.
As it is very easy to “over smoke” use small amounts on your first few attempts. To get a smoke flavour
all that is required is a wisp of smoke, smoke billowing out of the unit is not desired and will often leave
a sooty deposit on the food which doesn’t taste good. Soaking wood before use will slow burning and
increase smoke flavour.
Wood for smoking comes in various forms, chunks, chips, dust and pellets, it also comes in many varieties
(flavours) from apple to walnut, each transmitting a different taste. Use only wood that you know has not
been treated, or better still buy from your authorized Napoleon dealer.
!
Do not loc ate this gas grill in windy settings. High winds adversely affect the cooking performance of the
gas grill. In extreme circumstances when consistent high winds come from directly behind the unit, heat
can vent underneath the control panel. this may cause the control panel to become extremely hot to
touch and the knobs to deform.
Napoleon includes a wind deflector with your unit. It will help prevent the possibility of improper heat
build-up.
NOTE!
Napoleon is not responsible for: over firing, blow outs caused by environmental conditions
such as strong winds, or inadequate ventilation.
