adjustments to air shutter or low flame setting necessary.
It is recommended that a qualified person make burner adjustments.
NOTE: The rotisserie burner cannot be adjusted.
Checking and adjusting the grill burner flames requires removing the
grates and flame tamers.
Burner Flame Characteristics
The flames of the grill burners and side burners (on some models) should
be blue and stable with no excessive noise or lifting (LP gas flames will
have a slightly yellow tip). A yellow flame indicates not enough air. If
flame is noisy or lifts away from the burner, there is too much air. Some
yellow tips on flames when the burner is set to HI setting are acceptable
as long as no carbon or soot deposits appear.
Check that burners are not blocked by dirt
, debris, insect nests, etc., and
clean as necessary. If they are clean, adjust air shutters as needed.
IMPORTANT: Before adjusting
air shutters, let burners cool
completely.
To Adjust:
1. Light grill using information in the “Outdoor Grill Use” section.
2. Observe flame to determine which burners need adjustment and how
the flame is acting.
3. T
urn off the valve and wait until grill and burners cool completely.

Using Your Infrared Searing Burner
Infrared grilling produces intense heat which
quickly sears the meat.
Searing locks in flavor and juices while allowing the outer surface to
absorb smoke and food aroma that is produced as grease and drippings
are vaporized by the burner. The result is a crisp, flavorful outside with a
tender, juicy inside.
Ŷ
Preheat the infrared sear burner for 5 minutes.
Ŷ
Ensure th
at meats are fully thawed and that all excess fat is trimmed
away prior to grilling.
Ŷ
Leav
e the burner set to HI when placing food on the grill to sear.
Ŷ
Use the s
ear burner to sear meat 1 to 2 minutes on each side, then
move the meat to the main grill cooking surface to finish grilling to
the desired doneness.
NOTE: Grates are to be in place when using the infrared sear burner.

Rotisserie Cooking Tips
Rotisserie cooking rotates food in fr
ont of the rotisserie burner, creating
an intense heat for searing the outside and sealing in natural juices.
The rotisserie burner reaches cooking temperatures in about
1 minute. It is not necessary to preheat when using the rotisserie.
Ŷ
Select tender meat and pou
ltry.
Ŷ
Allow at least
1" (2.5 cm) space between rotisserie burner and the
food.
Ŷ
To make cleanup easier, place a pan under the food to catch
drippings.
Ŷ
Add barbecue sauce or glaze only during the last 10 minutes of
cooking to keep sauce from burning.
Trussing Poultry for the Rotis
serie
1. Load the spit rod
by sliding one of the forks on the rod, with the
prongs facing inward. Tighten the screw to keep it from slipping.
2. Push the rod through the center of the bird.
3. Cut 24" (61,0 cm) of butcher’s string and center it under the bird,
breast side up.
4. Wrap each end of the string around the wings; catch each wing tip.
Bring the string tightly together at the top of the breast and knot. It is
not necessary to cut off the extra string.
5. Cut another 20" (50.8 cm) of string and lay it under the back of the
bird. Wrap it around the tail then around the spit rod, cinching
tightly.
6. Cross the legs on top of spit rod; tie string around the crossed legs.
7. Connect the twine holding
the legs, to the string holding the wings,
and knot. Cut off any bits of hanging string.
8. Slide on the second fork pushing the tines into the drumsticks.
9. Center the food and forks on the rod and tighten the thumb- screws.
The bird should be firmly in place on the rotisserie spit rod.

ROTISSERIE CHART
Use a portable meat
thermometer to check internal doneness of the food.

TIPS FOR OUTDOOR
GRILLING
Before G
rilling
Ŷ
Thaw food items before grilling.
Ŷ
Preheat grill on high (use all grill
burners) 10 minutes. The hood
must be closed during preheating. Preheating provides the high heat
needed to brown and seal the juices.
Ŷ
Shorten the pre
heat time when grilling high-fat cuts of meat or
poultry, such as chicken thighs. This will help reduce
flare-ups.
Ŷ
Lightly oil the grill grates
or the food when cooking low-fat cuts of
meat, fish or poultry, such as lean hamburger patties, shrimp or
skinless chicken breasts.
Ŷ
Using too much oil can cause gray ash to deposit on food.
Ŷ
Trim excess fat
from meats prior to cooking to reduce
flare-ups.
Ŷ
Make verti
cal cuts at 2" (5,0 cm) intervals around the fat edge of
meat to avoid curling.
Ŷ
Add seasoning or salt only after the
cooking is finished.
During Grilling
Ŷ
Turn foods only once. Juices are lost when meat is turned several
times.
Ŷ
Turn meat just when juices begin to appear on the surface.
Ŷ
Avoid puncturing
or cutting the meats to test doneness. This allows
juices to escape.
Ŷ
It may be necessary to lower the heat setting for foods that cook a
long time or are marinated or basted in a sugary sauce.
Ŷ
If using a high flame, add barbecue sauce only during the last 10
minutes of cooking to avoid burning the sauce.
Ŷ
The degree of doneness is influenced by the type of meat, cut of
meat (size, shape and thickness), heat setting selected, and length of
time on the grill.
Ŷ
Cooking time will be longer with an open grill
cover.
Cooking Methods
Direct Heat
Cooking by direct heat means the food is placed
on grill grates directly
above lighted burners. Hood position can be up or down. If hood is in the
up position, total cooking times may be longer.
Direct heat sears the food. Searing is a process that seals natural juices in
food by cooking with intense heat for a short period of time. While
juices stay inside, the outside is browned with a flavorful grilled coating.
Indirect Heat
For best results, do not select the indirect heat coo
king method when it is
windy.
Cooking by indirect heat means the food is placed on the grill grate
above an unheated burner, allowing heat from lighted burner(s) on either
side to cook the food.
If possible, turn on 2 burners. Cook with the hood down. This will
shorten the cooking time.
