Precautions:
1. After lighting, observe the burner flame. Make sure all burner ports are lit.
2. If the burner flame goes out during operation, immediately turn the gas “OFF”. Open lid to let the gas clear for at least 5
minutes before re-lighting.
3. Before cooking on the grill for the first time and operate the grill for approximately 15 minutes with the lid closed and the
gas turned on “HIGH”. This will “heat clean” the internal parts, dissipate odor from the manufacturing process and painted
finish.
4. Clean the grill after each use. DO NOT use abrasive or flammable cleaners. This may damage parts of the grill and cause
a fire.
Lighting Side Burner
1. Open lid while lighting the burner. Lid must remain open while burner is lit.
2. Valve must be in the “OFF” position.
3. Open cylinder valve.
Push the side burner valve knob and rotate slowly about 1/4 counterclockwise until a click is heard. The burner should be
lit.
If the burner does not light, repeat 2 or 3 more times.
If ignition does NOT occur in 5 seconds turn the burner controls to OFF,
wait 5 minutes, and repeat the lighting procedure.
4. Adjust valve knob to the desired cooking temperature.
Using the Lighting Stick to Light the Side Burner
1. Open lid while lighting the burner. Lid must remain open while burner is lit
2. Remove the lighting stick then insert a match into the end of lighting stick. Light the match.
3. Once lit, place the flame to reach the burner ports.
4. Press the control knob and rotate it counterclockwise to the ‘’HIGH’’ position. The burner should light immediately.
5. Adjust burner to the desired cooking temperature.
Confirm that the burner is properly lit and that the flame pattern is as desired (see fig. A, B and C below for the proper flame
patterns). If the flame pattern is other than normal, consult the Troubleshooting on page 21 for corrective action.
