Pre-Cooking Checklist
Before FIRST use ensure that:
Before Each Use:
Once a Season
1. All packaging, and packing materials have been removed from the Grill and burners
2. You have a fuel supply connected.
3. All electrical parts are connected.
4. A licensed gas fitter has performed a leak test on all the fittings that supply the fuel to the side
burner.
5. If your side burner does not light in 4-5 seconds you may need to purge the line. (refer to
purging the line)
Aways make sure that:
1. You do not smell gas before you light the side burner. If you do smell gas, shut everything off
and have a licensed fitter check for leaks.
2. The cooking area is free and clear of any combustibles, that might ignite.
3. If you are using a refillable propane cylinder, it is securely connected and leak tested.
4. You know where the main gas supply shut-off is located.
5. Wind is not blowing too strongly or blowing on the back of side burner.
• At the start of each new grilling season remove the cooking racks and check the burners,
venturis, orifices and valves for obstructions.
• Spiders and insects often nest in these areas of the side burner and can disrupt air flow, causing
damage to the side burner and personal injury.
• Also, check all hoses and fittings for damage, abrasion, wear and tear.
WARNING
• Never attempt to light a burner if you smell gas.
• Always keep the lid open when lighting your side burner.
• Releasing fuel into a closed side burner before lighting will increase the risk of explosion,
property damage, personal injury or death.
• Keep your face and body as far from the side burner as possible when lighting. Any time a
burner doesn’t light within 5 seconds, turn off the control, wait 5 minutes for gas to dissipate,
and repeat the lighting procedure.
• NEVER LEAVE THE SIDE BURNER UNATTENDED WHILE COOKING.
