Optional Accessories
BBQ TRAY:
This optional accessory serves a dual
purpose. First, it will catch drippings
and help prevent flare-ups when cooking
particularly juicy foods, either on the
grill or the rotisserie. Second, it will serve
as a heat diffuser when grilling delicate
foods such as flaky fishes. To use the
BBQ Tray, follow these instructions:
1. Remove one of the V-grate grilling
grids and place the BBQ Tray into the
grill, suspending it from front to back as
shown in Figure 8. The BBQ Tray can be
used in place of any V-grate.
2. Partially fill the BBQ Tray with
water, wine or other non-flammable,
non-sugary liquid. Liquid level should
be maintained throughout the cooking
process to prevent burning or damage
to the BBQ Tray. Be careful not to spill
liquid onto the burner.
3. If desired, replace the V-grate over
the BBQ Tray.
4. Light and pre-heat the grill according
to the instructions on page 9. Never
set the control knobs higher than the
“
*
” position when using the tray.
Allow the grill to cool completely before
attempting to remove the BBQ Tray.
USE CAUTION WHEN ADDING
LIQUID TO BBQ TRAY TO ENSURE
NOTHING SPILLS ONTO BURNER.
DAMAGE WILL RESULT, AND IS NOT
COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY. remove

GRIDDLE:
The Griddle is available in two models,
the IRGP-BQ for use on the grill, and
the IRGP-SB for use on the side burner.
If you have the side burner model, skip
to the instructions at left. For the grill
model, follow these instructions:
1. Remove one of the V-grate grilling
grids as shown in Figure 9. The
griddle can be used on either the
right or left side.
2. Place the Griddle onto the grill,
making sure that the open side faces
to the front of the grill.
3. Light grill and preheat according to
the instructions on page 9.
Solaire recommends that the griddle
not be used on heat settings above
“
*
”, unless extreme high heat is
desired (such as for blackening foods).
Your grill, set to HI, will produce a
much hotter cooking surface than is
attainable on most household ranges.
Although the griddle surface is stainless
steel, oil, margarine or butter should
be used to prevent food from sticking.
A light coat of oil after cleaning will
help keep your griddle looking new.
YOUR GRIDDLE FEATURES A
GREASE TRAP FOR BETTER PER-
FORMANCE. HOWEVER, WHEN
FRYING EXTREMELY GREASY
FOODS, OR LARGE QUANTITIES OF
FOOD, IT IS POSSIBLE FOR THE
GREASE TRAP TO FILL, CREATING
A POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS
SITUATION. IF, WHILE COOKING,
THE TRAP FILLS MORE THAN
HALFWAY, TURN OFF THE BURNER,
ALLOW GRIDDLE TO COOL, AND
CLEAN BEFORE CONTINUING.
GRIDDLE FOR SIDE BURNERS:
If your Griddle is for use on the side
burners, follow these instructions:
1. Remove both of the flame-pattern
grates from the side burner.
2. Place the Griddle onto the side burner
making sure that the pins completely
enter the holes in the side burner top.
3. Light both side burners according to
the instructions on page 9. It is important
to use both burners when using the
Griddle to ensure even heating.
Any heat setting may be used with the
side burner griddle, although when set
to HI, your side burner will produce a
much hotter cooking surface than is
attainable on most household ranges.
It is also possible to use two different
heat settings on the burner, creating a
hot section for frying and a warm
section for holding finished foods.
Although the griddle surface is stainless
steel, oil, margarine or butter should
be used to prevent food from sticking.
A light coat of oil after cleaning will
help keep your griddle looking new.
