Trouble Shooting
WHEN TO LOOK FOR SPIDERS
You should inspect the burners at least once a year or immediately after any of the following conditions occur:
1. The smell of gas in conjunction with the burner flames appearing yellow.
2. The grill does not reach temperature.
3. The grill heats unevenly.
4. The burners make popping noises.
BEFORE CALLING FOR SERVICE
If the grill does not function properly, use the
“

section the following page on the manual. You may save the
cost of a service call.
PREHEATING:
The grill lid should be in a closed position during the preheat time period. It is necessary to preheat the grill
before cooking certain foods, depending on the type of food and the cooking temperature. Food that requires a high cooking
temperature needs a pre-heat
period of five minutes; food that requires a lower cooking temperature needs only a period of two to three minutes.
COOKING TEMPERATURES
High setting-Use this setting for fast warm-up, for searing steaks and chops, and grilling.
Low setting-Use this setting for all roasting, baking, and when cooking very lean cuts such as fish.
These temperatures may vary with the outside temperature and the amount of wind.
Cooking with in-direct Heat: You can cook poultry and large cuts of meat slowly to perfection on one side of the grill by indirect
heat from the burner on the other side. Heat from the lighted burner circulates gently throughout the grill, cooking the meat or
poultry without any direct flame touching it. This method greatly reduces flare-ups when cooking extra fatty cuts, because
there is no direct flame to light the fats and juices that drip down during cooking.
CAUTION
: If burners go out during operation, close gas supply at source, and turn all gas valves off. Open lid and wait five
minutes before attempting to re-light (this allows accumulated gas fumes to clear).
CAUTION
: Should a grease fire occur, close gas supply at source, turn off all burners and leave lid closed until fire is out.
CAUTION
: DO NOT attempt to disconnect any gas fitting while your grill is in operation. As with all appliances, proper care
and maintenance will keep appliances in top operating condition and will prolong the life of the appliance . Your gas gill is no
exception.
