BEFORE LIGHTING…
Inspect the gas supply hose prior to turning the gas
“ON”. If there is evidence of cuts, wear, or abrasion,
it must be replaced prior to use. Do not use the grill
if the odor of gas is present. Only the pressure
regulator and hose assembly supplied with the unit
should be used. Never substitute regulators for
those supplied with the grill. If a replacement is
necessary, contact the factory for proper
replacement.
Screw the regulator (type QCC1) onto the tank.
Leaks check the hose and regulator connections
with a soap and water solution before operating the
grill (see assembly instruction page 11).
TO LIGHT THE GRILL BURNER:
Make sure all knobs are “OFF” then turn on the gas
supply from the LP tank. Always keep your face and
body as far from the grill as possible when lighting.
Your grill has an exclusive patented built-in ignition.
The igniter is built in to the valve. To ignite each
burner simply push and turn the control knobs to
the HI setting, you will hear the valve click as it

Failure to open grill lid during the lighting
procedure could result in a fire or explosion
that could cause serious bodily injury, death,

sends a spark to the pilot flame. If the burner does
not light, wait 5 minutes for any excess gas to
dissipate and then retry.
Flame Characteristics:
WARNING
Never
lean over the grill cooking area while
lighting your gas grill. Keep your face and
body a safe distance (at least 18 inches) from
the cooking grid surface when lighting your
grill by match.
Check for proper burner flame characteristics. Each
burner is adjusted prior to shipment; however,
variations in the local gas supply may take minor
adjustments necessary.
Burner flames should be blue and stable with no
yellow tips, excessive noise, or lifting. If any of
these conditions exist call our customer service line.
If the flame is yellow, it indicates insufficient air. If
the flame is noisy and tends to lift away from the
burner, it indicates too much air.
TO MATCH LIGHT THE GRILL:
If the burner will not light after several attempts then
the burner can be match lit.
If you’ve just attempted to light the burner with the
igniter, allow 5 minutes for any accumulated gas to
dissipate. Keep your face and hands as far away
from the grill as possible. Insert a lit extended
match or lighter through the cooking grids to the
burner. Press the control knob and rotate left to the
HI setting, continue to press the knob until the
burner ignites. Burner should light immediately. If
the burner does not light in 4 seconds turn the knob
off, wait 5 minutes and try again.
Keep a spray bottle of soapy water near the gas
supply valve and check the connections before
each use.
