DUCANE
®
Permanent Briquettes Placement
Instructions
Briquette configuration may be varied to change heat distribution as
required. To increase cooking temperature, simply remove one row of
briquettes, and spread out remaining ones to cover entire surface of LA-VA-
GRATE
®
.
Place — do not dump — the briquettes on LA-VA-GRATE
®
diagonally as
shown in larger picture above. Follow configuration shown for your
model, leaving approximately 1/2" between briquettes. Use the entire
surface of the LA-VA-GRATE
®
for briquettes.
IMPORTANT: Proper briquette spacing is necessary to establish the
SEAR GRID
®
temperatures required for grilling. If the briquettes are
touching or too close together, heat will be blocked from reaching
the SEAR GRID
®
.
