Operating the Grill
Page 8
Each Grill burner is rated at 27,500
BTU. The grill burners encompass the
entire cooking area and are protected
with a wire mesh to minimize block-
age from falling grease and debris.
Each grill burner has its own igniter.
The igniter push button is located on
the front control panel.
BEFORE USING THE GRILL:
• Make sure the grill has been leak
tested and is properly located.
• Remove any packing material.
• Read and understand the instructions
in this manual.
USING THE GRILL:
Grilling requires high heat for searing
and proper browning. The intense
infrared heat produced by your SOLAIRE
Grill meets these requirements perfectly.
Meat is cooked evenly throughout,
while grease and food particles are
vaporized upon contact with the burner,
giving added flavor to your food.
NOTE:
The hot grill sears the food, sealing in
the juices. The longer preheat period,
the faster the meat browns and the
darker the sear marks. Place the food
on the grill and cook to the desired
level. Adjust heat setting, if necessary.
The control knob may be set to any
position between "HI" and "LO".
DO NOT leave the grill unattended
while cooking.
CONTROLLING FLARE-UPS
NEVER ATTEMPT TO CONTROL A
FLARE-UP BY DOUSING WITH
WATER. BURNER DAMAGE WILL
RESULT AND VOID YOUR WARRANTY.
With proper care, flare-ups should not
present a problem with your SOLAIRE
INFRARED Grill. Minimize flare-ups by:
• Properly pre-heating the grill.
• Ensuring grill grids are properly
installed with V-shape up.
• Trimming excess fat from meat.
• Cleaning grill regularly to avoid
grease build-up.
• Repositioning meat during cooking.
If a flare-up occurs, move meat to a
different portion of the grill until
flare-up is under control.
HOOD POSITION:
Due to the intense heat generated by
the Solaire burner system, cooking
with the hood closed can only be done
with the control knobs set to a lower
setting. The control panel is clearly
marked with a “
*
” indicating the
highest safe setting for cooking with
the hood closed (see Fig. 4 below).
WARNING
HOOD MUST BE OPEN WHEN LIGHTING GRILL
BURNERS,WARMING UP THE GRILL, AND
WHILE GRILLING WITH ANY CONTROL KNOB
SET IN THE RANGE BETWEEN "
*
" AND "HI".
HOOD MAY ONLY BE CLOSED WHEN ALL
CONTROL KNOBS ARE SET BELOW "
*
" OR
WHEN THE GRILL IS NOT IN USE.
AVOID WATER
DAMAGE TO BURNER
