Indirect Cooking
CAUTION:
Do not leave grill unattended while preheating, cooking or burning off food residue on “HIGH”. If grill has

roasts, chops, whole chickens, fish and baked goods.
1. Open lid and ignite the desired burners per “Lighting Instruction” section.
2. Close lid and preheat grill on “HIGH”.
3. Wear protective gloves and use long handle tongs to place food onto cooking grids above the un-lit burners.
4. Adjust controls to desired flame height.

Tips for Better Cookouts and Longer Grill Life
1. Use the upper cooking grid (warming rack) for keeping cooked food warm, toasting breads or cooking delicate
foods in aluminum foil pouches.
2. To keep food from sticking to the grids, spray or coat with cooking oil before lighting.
3. Place delicate foods like fish and vegetables in aluminum foil pouches and indirect cook or place on upper cooking
levers (warming rack).
WARNING: Never cover entire cooking area with aluminum foil.
4. To avoid losing natural juices, use long handle tongs or spatulas instead of forks and turn foods over just once
during cooking.
5. When direct cooking adjust your burners to different levels so foods can be prepared to different internal
temperatures in the same time frame.
6. When indirect cooking roasts and larger cuts of meat, place meat onto a roasting rack inside a heavy gauges metal
pan. Place pan over the un-lit burners.
7. Clean cooking grid and warming rack after every use with a quality grill brush designed for your grid material. Wear
protective gloves and gently remove the build-up while grids are hot.
8. After every use, allow grill to cool. Then protect clean cooking grids with a light coat of cooking oil, empty grease
pan, wipe outside surface with s suitable kitchen cleaner and protect surfaces with a quality cover that properly fit
your grill.

Cleaning and Care
CAUTION:
1. All cleaning and maintenances should be done when grill is cool and with the fuel supply disconnected.
2. DO NOT clean any grill part in a self cleaning oven. The extreme heat will damage the finish.
3. Do not enlarge valve orifices or burner ports when cleaning the valves or burners.
