Safety Instructions
WARNING! Read this manual carefully and completely before
using your side burner to reduce risk of fire, burn hazard or other
injury. Make sure all installation and service guidelines are
followed.

near this or any other appliance.
Do not store unconnected LP cylinders in the vicinity of this or
any other appliance.
FOR OUTDOOR USE ONLY!
If stored indoors, detach and leave any fuel cylinders outdoors.
Assembly
Remove all packing materials.
Ensure that the burners are positioned securely.
Place grates in the proper location over burners.
Connect gas using proper gas regulator.

Additional Safety Practices & Precautions
Have an ABC Fire Extinguisher readily accessible. Never attempt to
extinguish a grease fire with water or other liquids.
Keep electrical supply cords and fuel supply hoses away from heated
surfaces.
Do not heat unopened food containers as they may explode.
Never store additional or empty fuel cylinders in the side burner cabinet or
near the side burner. Do not store cylinders indoors or on their sides. Never
use dented, rusty or damaged cylinders.
After the side burner is installed by a professional technician be sure they
show you where your gas supply shut-off valve is located. All gas lines
must have a shut-off that is easily accessible. If you ever smell gas, check
for leaks IMMEDIATELY. Never check for gas leaks with an open
flame.
Never operate side burner in a windy area. If windy conditions exist, install
a suitable windbreak.
Damage caused by leaving operating burner unattended is not covered under
the terms and conditions of the Vintage Warranty. Never leave open flame
unattended.
Never use side burner without drip pan in place. Make sure drip pan is
properly and fully inserted. Failure to do so may allow hot grease or boil-
overs to become a fire or explosion hazard.
Do not repair or replace any part of the side burner unless specifically
recommended by this manual. A qualified technician should perform all
other necessary service.

Safety Practices & Precautions continued:
Gas side burners are not designed/certified for and are therefore not to be
installed in or on recreational vehicles, portable trailers, boats or any other
mobile vehicle.
Children should never be left alone or unattended in an area where a side
burner is located. Install your side burner well away from areas where
children play. Do not store items that may draw the interest of children in or
around the side burner, island or masonry enclosure. When in use and
immediately after, areas of the side burner are hot enough to cause
severe burns!
Avoid wearing loose-fitting, long sleeves or flammable garments when
using the side burner. Never touch cooking grates, side burner top or
surrounding metal surfaces with your bare hands as these areas become
extremely hot during use and could cause severe burns. Use an insulated
glove or mitt when attempting to handle parts of the side burner.
Never lean over or look directly over the cooking surface when attempting
to light.
The side burner cover must be completely removed before lighting and
during operation.
Do not replace side burner cover until the cooking surface has completely
cooled down.
Never connect any unregulated gas supply to the side burner. Supplied
regulator must remain attached in order to validate Warranty.
Conversion Kit
Vintage has provided a conversion kit for in field conversion of your side
burners in the packing materials. Conversion between fuel types should
always be performed by a knowledgeable installation or service technician.

Liquid Propane Gas Connection
Only a standard 20lb liquid propane gas cylinder should be used.
Cylinder should maintain an upright position at all times.
Never use a dented or rusty cylinder or a cylinder with a damaged valve.
Your Vintage side burners come equipped with a convertible gas pressure
regulator that must not be removed!
A standard LP hose and regulator assembly must be used to connect cylinder
to the side burners.
To connect hose, first screw brass fitting to the 90 degree elbow on the
convertible gas regulator at the back of your side burners then attach the
regulator end of the hose assembly to your LP cylinder.
Natural Gas Connection
Make sure pipe supplying side burners with natural gas is fitted with a shut
off valve that is easily accessible in case of emergency.
Your Vintage side burners come equipped with a convertible gas pressure
regulator that must not be removed!
Use natural gas flex hose to connect gas line to the 90 degree elbow on
convertible gas regulator at the back of your side burners.
Flexible hose connecting appliance to gas line must not be more than 48” in
length.

Burners
To light:
Turn on gas supply to the side burner.
Turn burner knob to “High” then push and hold the ignition button for 5
seconds. You should hear a rhythmic “clicking” sound. If you do not, turn
all knobs to “Off”, check ignition battery and ensure the burner base and
burner cap are properly positioned.
If burners do not light after 5 seconds, turn knobs to off and wait 5 minutes
before retrying. This will prevent any flare-ups over cooking surface, which
can result in injury.
Match lighting:
If ignition fails to light burners after several attempts or if the igniter battery
dies and you do not have a ready replacement, burners may be carefully
match-lit.
If match-lighting after a failed ignition attempt, wait 5 minutes before
attempting to light with a match.
Make sure knobs are in “Off” position. Light a long-stemmed match and
place over the burner. Keeping your face away from cooking surface, push
and turn control knob to “High”. If burner does not light in 5 seconds turn
knob to “Off” and wait 5 minutes before trying again.
Always wait 5 minutes before re-lighting a hot burner!
Note:
Improper lighting procedures can cause the flow control to activate, resulting
in reduced heat output. If this is suspected, shut off all burner controls and
cylinder valve. Wait 30 seconds, then very slowly re-open cylinder valve.
Wait an additional 5 seconds before turning burner control knob and
attempting to light.
