Installation Safety Precautions
• Use grill, as purchased, only with LP (propane) gas and the
regulator/valve assembly supplied. Ifyour grill is Dual Fuel ready,
a conversion kit must be purchased for use with natural gas.
• Grill installation must conform with local codes, or in their
absence of local codes, with either the National Fuel Gas
Code,ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Natural Gas and Propane
Installation Code, CSA B149.1, or Propane Storage and
Handling Code, B149.2.
• All electrical accessories (such as rotisserie) must be
electrically grounded in accordance with local codes, or
National Electrical Code,ANSI/NFPA 70 or Canadian
Electrical Code, CSA C22.1. Keep any electrical cords and/or
fuel supply hoses away from any hot surfaces.
• This grill is safety certified for use in the United States and/or
Canada only. Do not modify for use in any other location.
Modification will result in a safety hazard.
CAUTION
Using pots larger than 6 quarts in capacity could
exceed weight limit of the
side burner shelf
or side shelf,
resulting in failure
of grill cart
components.
Do not attempt to repair or alter the
hose/valve/regulator for any "assumed" defect. Any
modification to this assembly will void your warranty
and create the risk of a gas leak and fire. Use only
authorized replacement parts supplied by
manufacturer.
NOTE: DO NOT over tighten screws and
washers that come into contact with porcelain
coated surfaces. Over tightening may cause the
porcelain coating to crack and break, resulting in
exposed metal that will be prone to rust.
First Time Use
Read your Assembly Manual and ensure the grill is put together
properly. Remove all Point-of-Purchase advertising material from
all grill surfaces before first use. We recommend operating your
grill on its highest setting for 15-20 minutes prior to your first use.
This aids in removing the oils used during manufacturing.
Lava Rock / Briquettes
This gas grill has been designed, engineered, and tested to be
used with flame tamers or heat distribution plates to provide
more even heating, improve the cleaning process, and reduce
flare-ups. The addition of after market lava rocks, charcoal, or
briquettes of any type will cause poor combustion and increase
the likelihood of a grease fire, and is not recommended. Using
briquettes, lava rock, or charcoal in this grill will void your
warranty. For extra smoke flavor, we recommend using a
smoker box with wood chips.
Temperature - Convective Grills ONLY.
The temperature gauge in the hood of your new grill measures
air temperature. The air temperature inside your grill will never
be as hot as the temperature at the cooking surface.
Note: Since 1995, all regulators (the part that attaches to the gas
tank to regulate the flow of gas) have included a safety feature
that restricts gas flow in the event of a gas leak. You can
inadvertently activate this safety feature without having a gas
leak. This typically occurs when you turn on the gas using the
grill control knob before you turn on the LP tank valve. If the gas
regulator safety feature activates, the grill will only reach
temperatures between 250°F and 300°F even with all burners on
the high setting.
Regulator Coupling Nut
If your grill is not getting hotter than 250°F to 300°F these
steps should be taken first to reset the gas regulator safety
device:
1. Open the grill lid.
2. Turn off all knobs on the control panel in front.
3. Turn off the tank knob.
4. Disconnect the regulator from the LP tank.
5. Wait 30 seconds.
6. Reconnect the regulator to the LP tank.
7. Slowly open the LP tank knob all the way. Do not put
excessive force on the valve at the full open position to avoid
damaging the valve.
8. Turn on the appropriate control knob and light the grill per the
instructions on the control panel.
An illustration of this process is included in this Product Guide.
See Troubleshooting section for additional information.
Pre-Heating Your Grill
Just like your home oven, your grill should be pre-heated to
provide optimum performance. Pre-heat the grill on high for 10-
15 minutes -longer if weather conditions require. Please refer to
the lighting instructions inside the Product Guide if you have
questions about how to light your grill. A match-light chain and
hole is provided for your convenience.

Sauces
Sauces containing sugars and fats can cause flare-ups, and your
food may burn. In general, apply these sauces during the final
10 minutes of cooking. Keep in mind, use of excessive sauces
or glazes will also require extra cleaning afterwards.
Marinades and Rubs
To enhance the flavor of grilled foods, a liquid marinade or dry
rub can be used prior to cooking. Meat can be either soaked or
injected with liquid marinade up to 24 hours prior to grilling. Dry
rubs can be applied directly to the meat immediately before
grilling.
Wood Chips
For extra smoke flavor when grilling, try adding wood chips.
Soak the chips in water for approximately 30 minutes before
adding to a smoke box or pan. Place smoke box or pan on top of
the cooking grate above the flame. Turn grill on high until the
wood starts to smoke. Reduce heat to desired temperature for
cooking, and place food on cooking grate as desired. Close lid to
retain more smoke. Hardwood varieties that work particularly
well with grilled foods include Alder, Apple, Cherry, Grapevines,
Hickory, Mesquite, Oak, Rosemary and Sassafras.
Skewers
Metal skewers should be flat, with long handles. Round skewers
allow food to roll when turned, so it may not cook as evenly. Use
metal skewers when cooking meat kabobs. Wooden skewers
should be soaked in water for an hour before use, and are best
used for quick cooking foods such as vegetables and fruits.
Utensils
Use tongs or a spatula to handle the food instead of a fork, and
don't turn the food too
often. Piercing the food
with a fork will release
juices that you want in
the meat, and may
cause flare-ups.

GeneralCleaning
Plastic parts: Wash with warm soapy water and wipe dry. Do not
use abrasive cleaners, degreasers or a concentrated grill cleaner
on plastic parts. Damage to and failure of parts can result.
Porcelain surfaces: Because of glass-like composition, most
residue can be wiped away with baking soda/water solution or
glass cleaner. Use non-abrasive scouring powder for stubborn
stains.
Painted surfaces: Wash with mild detergent or non-abrasive
cleaner and warm water. Wipe dry with a soft non-abrasive cloth.
Stainless steel surfaces: Stainless steel can rust under certain
conditions. This can be caused by environmental conditions
such as chlorine or salt water, or improper
cleaning tools such as wire or steel
wool. It can also discolor due to heat,
chemicals, or grease build-up. To
maintain your grill's high quality
appearance, wash with mild detergent
and warm water, or use a stainless
steel grill cleaner. Baked-on grease
deposits may require the use of an
abrasive plastic cleaning pad. Use only
in direction of brushed finish to avoid
damage. Do not use abrasive pad on
areas with graphics.
Cooking surfaces: If a bristle brush is used to clean any of the
grill cooking surfaces, ensure no loose bristles remain on cooking
surfaces prior to grilling. It is not recommended to clean cooking
surfaces while grill is hot.

Storing Your Grill
• Clean cooking grates.
• Store in dry location.
• When LP cylinder is connected to grill, store outdoors in a well-
ventilated space and out of reach of children.
• Cover grill if stored outdoors. Choose from a variety of grill
covers offered by manufacturers.
• Store grill indoors ONLY if LP cylinder is turned off and
disconnected, removed from grill and stored outdoors.
• When removing grill from storage, follow "Cleaning the Burner
Assembly" instructions before starting grill.
Cleaning the Burner Assembly
Follow these instructions to clean and/or replace parts of burner
assembly or if you have trouble igniting grill.
1. Turn gas OFF at control knobs and LP cylinder,
2. Remove cooking grates and flame tamers.
3. Remove carryover tubes and burners.
4. Detach electrode from burner.
NOTE: Removal/Detachment method will depend on the
burner configuration. See different configurations in
illustrations below.
5. Carefully lift each burner up and away from valve openings.
We suggest three ways to clean the burner tubes. Use the one
easiest for you.
(A) Bend a stiff wire (a light weight coat hanger works well)
into a small hook. Run the hook through each burner
tube several times.
r.._.,_ _
(B) Use a narrow bottle brush with a flexible handle (do not
use a brass wire brush), run the brush through each
burner tube several times.
(C) Wear eye protection: Use an air hose to force air into
the burner tube and out the burner ports. Check each
port to make sure air comes out each hole.
6. Wire brush entire outer surface of burner to remove food
residue and dirt.
7. Clean any blocked ports with a stiff wire such as an open
paper clip.
8. Check burner for damage, due to normal wear and corrosion
some holes may become enlarged. If any large cracks or
holes are found replace burner.
VERY IMPORTANT:Burner tubes must reengage valve
openings. See illustrations at right.
9. Attach electrode to burner. Correct
burner-to-valve
10. Carefully replace burners, engagement
11. Attach burners to brackets on firebox.
12. Reposition carryover tubes and attach
to burners. Replace flame tamers and
cooking grates.
