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 before lighting side burner.
2. Make sure control knob is in OFF position.
3. Turn on gas source or tank valve.
4. To ignite, push and turn desired knob slowly about1/4 turn counter clockwise until a click is heard.
5. The “click” is the ignitor being activated. If the burner does not light, repeat 2 or 3 times.
6. If ignition does NOT occur in 5 second turn the burner controls to OFF, wait 5 minutes, and repeat the lighting procedure.
7. To ignite remaining burners, repeat same procedure for adjacent burner and continue in sequence.
8. Adjust valve knob to the desired cooking temperature.
