WARNING
FIRE, INJURY or DEATH HAZARD
Contact the factory or an authorized service agent for any
adjustments, maintenance or repairs. This appliance is not
user serviceable.
WARNING
BURN HAZARD
Hot liquids and steam can burn skin. Never pour any liquid
other than oil to be used for cooking on to hot surfaces.
WARNING
FIRE HAZARD
If you smell gas follow the instructions provided by the
gas supplier. Do not touch any electrical switch; do not
try to light the burner; do not use a telephone within close
proximity.
Before initial use, turn the gas control knob to the maximum setting,
and allow equipment to burn-in for 15 minutes. You will notice smoke
appearing due to the cooking surface burning-in. This is normal. After 15
minute burn in period the equipment is ready for use.
To adjust the leveling feet:
1. Hold the leg (A) and rotate the adjustable feet (B) so the equipment is
level. See Figure 1.
2. It is recommended that the grill grates (F) be set at the full tilt position
to start. This will allow grease to run down the grill grate(s) (F) and into
the drip tray (C) and will reduce flare-ups.
3. Check the drip tray (C) frequently and add water as necessary.
Water vapor rising from the drip tray (C) and through the combustion
chamber will help to reduces flare-ups.
4. To ignite the burners, depress and turn the gas control knob (E) to
‘High’ position.
5. Allow the appliance to pre-heat before attempting to use.
6. Adjust the valve set-point to obtain the desired level of heat.
WARNING
FIRE, INJURY or BURN HAZARD
Never attempt to move grates while cooking. Flare-ups
can occur unexpectedly and cause injury. Turn unit off and
allow the grill grate(s) (F) to cool.
7. To adjust the grill grate(s) (F), raise or lower the back of the grates.
Turn unit off and allow the grill grate(s) (F) to cool. Use pot holders or
gloves to reposition.

To maintain the appearance and increase the service life, clean your
equipment daily.
NOTE:
Do not clean the equipment with steel wool.
1. Allow the equipment to cool completely before cleaning.
2. Using a wire brush, scrape the grill grate(s) (E) to remove any food
residue.
3. Using a damp cloth, sponge dipped in soapy water or metal scraper to
clean the equipment; rinse and dry thoroughly.
4. Dry grates thoroughly to prevent rusting. This may be done by placing
the grates in place and heating the unit as described in the Operation
Section.
