OPERATING PROCEDURES
OPERATE ONLY ON “LOW” WHEN LID IS CLOSED.
ALWAYS OPERATE WITH GREASE TRAY IN PLACE.
WARNING: Do not overheat grill. Magma Grills do not require pre-heating. Stainless Steel loses anti-
corrosive characteristics when subjected to extreme heat. Most grilling is done on low temperature
with the lid closed. If medium or high heat is required, grill with lid open.
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
• Open lid during lighting.
• Depress knob and rotate counter-clockwise to the “HIGH” flame position.
• Push Piezo Igniter. • Visually confirm ignition. • Turn knob to adjust flame.
• If grill does not light, adjust electrode until proper spark appears (see page 5).
• If the piezo ignition continues to fail to ignite the gas, see MATCH LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS.
NOTE:
Before lighting, lid lock must be positioned not to engage. Open lid and turn lock to locked
position.
MATCH LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
(Back up system allows use of grill until piezo ignition system is repaired.)
• Open lid during lighting.
• Place flame up to burner through the match light hole using match light tool.
• Depress valve and turn counter-clockwise to the “HIGH” flame position.
• Visually confirm ignition, the flame should be blue with yellow tips.
• The appliance must not be exposed to flammable vapors or liquids during lighting.
TO REDUCE FLARE-UP
• Empty and clean grease tray prior to each use.
• Trim excess fats from meat.
• Use non-oil based marinades.
• Reduce heat.
• Use water spray directly on flare-ups.
FOLDING LEGS
For storage, transport or while using other mounting options. Fold up back legs first, then front legs
(as shown). If legs become loose they can be tightened with a 5/32” Hex Key Wrench.
PRACTICAL HINTS
Before lighting your grill, be sure that…
• Grill is secure and properly mounted.
• Internal components and grease tray are clean and correctly positioned.
• You have plenty of gas in the canister.
• Gas canister is attached properly and there are no gas leaks.
• Lid lock has been set not to engage.
• You have a water spray bottle handy to cool a hot grill or stop any flare-ups.
STOWING TIPS
• Always disconnect the fuel canister from the valve prior to stowing.
• Stow the valve in a clean, dry area to protect from corrosion to valve.
• Always store propane in a sealed propane storage locker that allows leakage to vent overboard or use
Magma Propane Storage Locker/Tote Bag.
Never stow below decks.
