Never stand with your head directly over the grill when preparing to light the main burners, to prevent possible bodily
injury.
Lighting Main Burner
1. Open
lid while lighting burners.
WARNING:
Attempting to light the burner with the lid closed may cause
an explosion. Make` sure there are no obstructions of airflow to the gas unit. Spiders
and insects can nest and clog the burner/venturi tube at the orifice. A clogged burner
tube can lead to a fire beneath the appliance.
2. All valves must be in the “OFF” position.
3. Open
cylinder
valve.
4. Ignite only the burners you wish to use, using the same method for each:
To ignite, push and turn desired knob slowly about 1/4 turn counter clockwise until a click is heard.
(See diagram to right.)The “click” is the ignitor being activated. If the burner does not light,
repeat 2 or 3 times. If ignition does NOT occur in 5 second turn the burner controls to OFF, wait 5
minutes, and repeat the lighting procedure.
To ignite remaining burners, repeat same procedure for adjacent burner and continue in sequence.
5. Adjust valve knob(s) to desired cooking temperature.
Using the Lighting Stick to Light the Main Burners
1. Insert a match into the end of lighting stick locked in the drawer. Light the match.
2. Once lit, put the lighting stick through the cooking grid and place the flame next to
the burner ports found along the sides of the desired burner (See diagram to right.)
3. Press the valve knob and rotate it counterclockwise to the ‘’HIGH’’
position. The burner should light immediately. If more than one burner
is desired, repeat the procedure 2-3 until all desired burners are lit.
4. Adjust burners to the desired cooking temperature.
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.

cause a fire.
