INSTALLATION (cont.)
INSTALL THE FLAVOR GRIDS
Place the fl avor grids directly onto the studs on the burners.
See Fig. 16-1. The fl avor grids allow heat from the burners
to be evenly distributed throughout the cooking area. They
are stainless steel and will heat and cool quickly, making
your grill very responsive to the changes you specify in grill
temperature. They are rust resistant and may be cleaned
with standard oven cleaners. Some discoloring will be seen
with use. This is normal for stainless steel and does not
affect the function.

THE DRIP TRAY
The drip collection system allows you to brush or scrape
excess dried residue from the grilling area directly into
the drip tray (see the DRIP TRAY section for more
information).
THE COOKING GRID LIFTER
Hold the grid lifter by gripping the center section with the
prongs pointing down (use an oven mitt or heavy glove
if the grill is hot). Insert the notched end of the grid lifter
into the cooking grid, in front of the midway point (front
to back; Fig. 21-3), and central (left to right; Fig. 21-4).
Twist the grill lifter (clockwise or counterclockwise) so
the handle is parallel to the grill rods. This “seats” the
spiked end of the grid lifter between two rods, enabling
you to safely lift out the grid. Lift slowly and adjust the
grid lifter, if necessary, for balance.

THE FLAVOR GRID(S)
Place each fl avor grid directly over a burner. The solid
areas of the grid should rest over the tabs found on the
burner. See Fig. 21-5. The slightly larger grids are
designed to be placed over the outside burners,
and the slightly smaller grid(s) are designed to be
placed over the interior burner(s).
Note: This allows heat from the burners to be evenly
distributed throughout the cooking area. The
fl avor grids heat and cool quickly, making the
grill very responsive to changes in heat from
the burners.
Fig. 21-5
ACCESSORIES
22
The drip collector allows you to brush or scrape
residue from the grill's inner liner into the drip
tray . Following the manufacturers instructions
and regular cleaning of the grill's interior with
oven cleaner, will help to prevent grease fi res.
Your grill includes a pack of four (4) Fire Magic
®
drip tray liners (Fig. 22-1). For your convenience
in cleanup, place a liner into the drip tray before
grilling.
To fi t a liner into the drip tray, pull out the tray and
set it on a fl at, level surface. Place the liner in the
drip tray as shown in Fig. 22-2 and carefully insert
the tray back under the control panel.
Note: Be sure that the liner is properly placed into
the drip tray. The front of the liner must fi t
under the drip tray's lighting instruction plate
(see 22-3 detail).
After each use, wait for the grill to cool and carefully
pull out the drip tray to check it. When a liner is
nearing full, carefully lift it out of the drip tray, lifting
with both hands to keep the tray level until it is safely
discarded. Then insert a new drip tray liner.
Order more drip tray liners through your local Fire
Magic
®
dealer.
Note: The foil tray liner is also useful for setting on
burners to cover them and catch drippings
directly during rotisserie only cooking.
Note: For models with match holders attached
inside the drip tray, place the match holder
off to one edge of the pan (Fig. 22-3). If
necessary, mold the foil liner around them
and the other features of the tray to create
enough clearance space to open and close
the tray without catching the liner.

PROTECTING YOUR APPLIANCE FROM THE
WEATHER
An optional cover will protect your appliance when not
in use. (Allow to cool before covering.)
Please specify the model number and serial number
of your appliance when ordering a cover.
APPLIANCE MUST BE COMPLETELY COOL WHEN
CLEANING. DO NOT SPRAY ANY CLEANER OR
LIQUIDS ON THE APPLIANCE WHEN HOT.
The appliance must be cleaned as often as once a month
(depending on use) to prevent grease build-up and other
food deposits.
INTERIOR
THE BURNER PORTS MUST BE KEPT CLEAN TO
ENSURE PROPER IGNITION AND OPERATION.
Remove the burner (see orifi ce changing instructions)
and clean the ports and slots as required. (For Fire Magic
grills use Maintenance Kit part #MK-1.) Also inspect and
clean the burner inlet for insects and nests. A clogged
burner can lead to a fi re in the bottom of the appliance.
The inside of the appliance may be cleaned periodically
with oven cleaner if desired. Follow the oven cleaner
instructions for proper use.
Be careful not to get oven cleaner on the outside surface
of the appliance as it can permanently damage the fi nish.
EXTERIOR
Stainless steel surfaces when exposed to temperatures
produced by the grilling process will change color. The
stainless steel will change color from silver to brown
and blue. This can be removed by using stainless steel
cleaner.
Clean your appliance by fi rst using grill cleaner to remove
grease and dirt. Always wipe with the grain (See Fig.
23-1). Next, use stainless steel cleaner to restore the
stainless steel color (Note: not for mirror fi nish). Finish
by wiping your appliance down using polish wipes. To
clean any mirror fi nish (if applicable), use a quality
brand glass cleaner only, not any of the cleaners
mentioned above.
If your appliance is installed in a seaside (salt air) or
poolside (chlorine) location, it will be more susceptible
to corrosion and must be maintained/cleaned more
frequently. Do not store chemicals (such as chlorine or
fertilizer) near your stainless steel appliance.
Due to the nature of stainless steel, surface iron oxide
deposits may appear. Do not be alarmed – these deposits
are removable with stainless steel cleaner through prompt
and periodic maintenance. If not attended to promptly,
permanent pitting may occur.
By following these recommendations, you will enjoy the
beauty and convenience of your appliance for many years
to come.
IMPORTANT
IN THE EVENT OF A GREASE FIRE, IMMEDIATELY
SHUT OFF THE MAIN GAS VALVE TO THE UNIT.
KEEP THE LID OPEN AND ALLOW THE FIRE TO
EXTINGUISH ITSELF. A THOROUGH INSPECTION
BY A TRAINED SERVICE TECHNICIAN SHOULD
BE CONDUCTED BEFORE FUTURE USE OF YOUR
UNIT. THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN WILL CHECK THE
SYSTEM FOR GAS LEAKS AND WILL CHECK ALL
ELECTRICAL WIRING FOR DAMAGE. ALL GAS
LEAKS AND WIRING MUST BE REPAIRED PRIOR
TO FUTURE USE.

CONVERTING THE GAS TYPE
Fig. 24-2
CAUTION: Make sure the grill is at a safe temperature
and isolated from gas and electrical
supplies before beginning.
For your safety, exercise caution, and make sure you
have adequate hand protection, such as gloves, when
handling metal parts.
CONVERT LABEL
This grill comes from the factory confi gured for one type
of gas as marked on the label behind the control panel.
When the grill is converted, the label for the new gas
(included at original shipping) MUST be applied over
the old label mentioned above.
CONVERT REGULATOR
The gas regulator, located behind the control panel, must
be set for the type of gas used to fuel the grill. To check
the regulator setting, remove the cap in the center of the
regulator (Fig. 24-1, A). Holding the cap vertical (see
Fig. 24-1, B), the letters at the bottom of the plastic stalk
indicate the gas type for which the regulator is currently
confi gured.
If the text on the bottom of the regulator stalk does not
match the gas type connected to the grill, remove the
stalk from the cap, invert, and replace into center of cap.
Replace cap on the regulator, screwing down until snug.
CONVERT GAS ORIFICES
When converting the grill to a different gas type, each
burner’s orifi ce must be replaced with the corresponding
orifi ce for the new gas.
See
MODEL SPECIFICATIONS TABLE, Table 1 at the
beginning of this document to determine the proper
orifi ce sizes for each burner.
See the following section for details on orifi ce
conversion.
Important: It is critical to the operation of each
burner that its orifi ce be fully inserted
into the center of its orifi ce opening.
WARNING
HAZARDOUS OVERHEATING WILL OCCUR
IF A NATURAL-GAS ORIFICE IS USED WITH
PROPANE GAS.
CONNECT TO NEW GAS SUPPLY
Plumb the unit as appropriate for the new gas supply.
(Additional components may be needed for your specifi c
setup.) Be sure to leak test at all connections.
Natural-gas to propane-gas conversions using a
tank internal to a portable grill require installation
of a propane tank holder (not included). This tank
holder must be purchased separately from the
manufacturer.
CONVERT/CHECK MAIN BURNER ORIFICES
1. Remove the cooking grid and fl avor grid from
above the burner you are working and set them
aside.
2. Locate the burner. Slightly pinch and remove the
burner clip (located over the rear center of the
burner) from the burner support and set aside.
3. Carefully lift the burner from the burner support
and out from the hole in the forward fi re wall (see
Fig.
24-2).
4. Use a
3
/
8
" hex nut driver to remove the exposed
orifi ce (Fig. 24-3). Check orifi ce. If needed, replace
it with the correct orifi ce for the new gas.
5. Replace the burner by first sliding the open
cylindrical end of the burner around the orifi ce,
enveloping it and centering on it, then lower the
back end anchor pegs into the anchor peg holes.
Note: It is critical to the continued safe functioning
of the burner that the orifi ce is centered and
completely inside the burner gas inlet.
6. Re-install the burner clip around the burner and
into the holes in the burner support.
7. Replace the fl avor grid and then the cooking grid
so that the cut-out section is in front.
8. Repeat these steps for each main burner.

1. Follow the safety precautions and steps for
main burner removal
in the CHANGING
THE MAIN BURNER
ORIFICES section
(steps 1-2).
2. Adjust the air shutter
opening by loosening
the adjustment screw
with a screwdriver,
then turn the air
shutter to open or close it (see Fig. 25-2).
Too large an air shutter opening will allow too much
air into the burner, which will cause the fl ames fi rst
to shorten and then to appear to lift up off the ports.
For the bottom of the fl ames to move closer to the
ports, close the air shutter more.
If the air shutter opening is too small or closed, the
fl ames will present consistently orange tips and
become “lazy,” slowly undulating back and forth.
For propane gas, ideal settings tend to be just
slightly open. For natural gas, which generally
requires less primary air than propane, the main
burner air shutter may be nearly closed.
3. Adjust the air shutter opening and then replace
the burner.
4. Follow the lighting instructions in this manual to
light the burner.
5. Repeat steps 1-4 until the fl ames appear to
touch the burner ports, burning fairly steadily
and mostly blue (see Fig. 25-1).
6. Replace the burner, burner clip, fl avor grid,
and cooking grid (see CHANGNG THE MAIN
BURNER ORIFICE section, steps 4-5).
Repeat these steps for each main burner.
AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENT
Important: Air shutters are preset at the
factory based on the gas the grill is
built to burn. However, altitude or
other local conditions may require
air shutter adjustment for proper
combustion.
MAIN BURNER
Flames from a properly adjusted main burner with
no wind or breeze present will appear fairly steady,
consistent, and mostly blue. If the tip of a fl ame were
to turn orange, it should only do so briefl y and then
become blue again. The fl ames will appear to burn
while touching the burner ports (see Figure 25-1).
If the fl ames have orange in them and appear to
undulate slowly from side to side, or if some of them
appear to lift off the burner instead of touching it,
then adjust the air shutter, as instructed below.
