Operation
Turning the Burners Off
1. Always turn the burner control knob(s) to the OFF position before turning off the main supply valve
when cooking has been completed.
2. Promptly turn OFF the gas supply valve at the propane cylinder or at the main natural gas supply
line.
3. Close the Hood of the Grill.
Flare-UPs
“Flare-ups” sometimes occur when food drippings fall onto the hot sear plates or burners and ignite. Some
flaring is normal and desirable, as it helps impart the unique flavors associated with grilled foods. Control-
ling the intensity of the flare-ups is also desirable, however, in order to avoid burned or unevenly cooked
foods and to prevent the possibility of an accidental fire.
Never allow the Grill to operate while unattended to prevent uncontrolled grease fires from erupting.
Always monitor the Grill carefully while cooking and turn the flame level down (LOW), or OFF,
if flare-ups intensify.
MaTCH lIGHTInG THe MaIn BUrners:
Never stand directly over the Grill when lighting the main
burners, to avoid exposure to possible flare-ups.
1. a. Always open the Hood completely and inspect the Grill
and burners before lighting the main burners.
b. Make sure the grease cup is empty and grease tray is
clean.
c. Always visually inspect the gas supply line for fraying,
cracking or rodent damage before lighting the grill and, if
necessary, install a replacement obtained from the manu-
facturer prior to lighting the grill.
2. Always confirm that all of the burner control knobs are in
the OFF position before opening the gas supply.
3. Always turn on the propane gas supply valve at the tank
(1 to 2 turns).
4. Insert a lit match using the holder provided through the
cooking grate and heat plates. Position lit match close
to burner. (Fig. 10)
5. Turn the Burner Control Knob to the HIGH position by pushing down on the knob and turning it counterclockwise.
Repeat for each burner.
6. If the burner will not light within five (5) seconds, turn off the gas, wait a few minutes to clear the gas
before trying to light the grill again.
Never store flammable or easily combustible objects (matches, butane lighters, cloths, etc.) in the pull out
food warming drawer (if equipped).
