OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL USE OF THE GRILL AND
ROTISSERIE
Each main burner is rated at 12,000
Btu/hr. The main grill burners encompass
the entire cooking area and are side
ported to minimize blockage from falling
grease and debris. Above the burners are
stainless steel radiant (flame tamer). The
igniter knobs are located on the lower
center portion of the valve panel. Each
rotary igniter is labeled on the control
panel.
USING THE GRILL
Grilling requires high heat for searing and
proper browning. Most foods are cooked
at the “HI” heat setting for the entire
cooking time. However, when grilling large
pieces of meat or poultry, it may be
necessary to turn the heat to a lower
setting after the initial browning. This
cooks the food through without burning
the outside. Foods cooked for a long time
or foods basted with a sugary marinade
may need a lower heat setting near the
end of the cooking time.
NOTE: This stainless steel grill is
designed to grill efficiently without the use
of lava rocks or briquettes of any kind.
Heat is radiated by the stainless steel
flame tamers positioned above each
burner.
NOTE: The hot grill sears the food,
sealing in the juices. The longer the
preheat, the faster the meat browns and
the darker the grill marks.
DO NOT LEAVE THE GRILL
UNATTENDED WHILE COOKING.
WARNING: IMPORTANT!
USING THE SIDE BURNER:
Inspect the gas supply hose prior to
turning the gas “ON”. If there is evidence
of cuts, wear or abrasion, it must be
replaced prior to use. Do not use the side
burner if the odor of gas is present.

USING ROTIS BURNER
Your grill is capable of performing back
burner rotisserie cooking. Light the rear
burner as described in the lighting
instructions, see page 19. Once lit, the
rotisserie burner will reach cooking
temperatures in about 1 minute.
The motor slides onto the stainless steel
motor mount. The rotisserie motor must be
electrically grounded in accordance with
local codes or, in the absence of local
codes, with the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70-1990.
The skewer for the rotisserie is assembled
into the motor assembly by placing the
pointed end into the motor, and then sliding
the grooved bushing into the slot at the
opposite side of the grill. The thumbscrew
for the grooved bushing should be inside
the grill body. To load the skewer, begin
with the bushing screwed on the skewer
rod at the opposite end from the point.
Then slide the counter balance apparatus
and tighten on the skewer rod
approximately 2~4”(5-10cm) from the
bushing. Slide the first meat fork onto the
skewer rod prongs toward the food. Center
the product to be cooked on the skewer
