First Time Operation
MAIN BURNERS:
Before cooking with your grill for the first time, burn off any foreign matter and rid the unit of any
odors by operating the unit for about five minutes.
When lit, the flame should have a bluish color to it. It may have a tint of yellow and adjustment
to the air shutters can be made to obtain a blue flame and proper gas flow.
Although the grill can be operated with the hood closed, while fired by the rod-shaped burners for
short periods of time (5-10 minutes),
Do Not operate the rotisserie burner with the hood
closed
. This may damage the grill.
The grill should be preheated with the front panel (main burner) control settings on HIGH for
five minutes with the hood closed.
Temperature Settings
- Use HIGH burner setting for searing, heavy cooking, preheating and cleanup.
- Use other burner settings to create temperatures to suit your personal cooking preferences.
- Temperatures may vary with outside temperatures and wind conditions.
You can cook poultry and larger cuts of meat slowly if you turn OFF the burner directly under the food and
use adjacent burners to supply heat (a.k.a. “convection cooking” or “indirect cooking”). Fats and juices that
drip down can cause flare-ups. Since s o m e flare-up does impart a distinctive and desirable flavor, taste and
color to foods being grilled, they should be carefully and reasonably encouraged. Uncontrolled or
excessive flare-ups, however, will damage your food. (When cooking foods with a high fat content, using
indirect heat also greatly reduces flare-ups).
