Position the ceramic briquets evenly on the briquette rack without overlapping.
Set the multilevel cooking grids Figure 8.
Installing Char-Master Briquets
Individually place the ‘Char-Master’ briquets in a single layer evenly on your grill’s briquet rack; DO NOT dump them onto the briquet rack. A single layer of ‘Char-Master’ briquets is all that’s needed. DO NOT overlap or stack the briquets. See Figure 11.
After properly placing the ‘Char-Master’ briquets on your grill’s briquet rack, there may be some briquets left over. Save them for future use.
Before cooking, always preheat the grill as directed by the grill’s operating instructions. Hot briquets cause better, quicker cooking and better flavor.
Cleaning
Routine preheating and routine burn-off (also called pos theating) of a grill will clean the ‘Char-Master’ briquets. Periodically turn the briquets over while they are cool.

Operation - Propane & Natural Grills
Before Cooking
Before cooking on a grill for the first time, it should be broken in to burn off any oil residue from the manufacturing process.
1. Raise the grill lid.
2. Light grill burner.
3. Burn on HI for ten minutes.
4. Close the lid and burn on HI for an additional ten minutes.
5. Turn OFF gas. The grill is now ready for use.
Preheating
Before cooking on a gas grill, allow the grill to preheat on HI for 5 minutes with the lid closed.
This uses very little fuel and hot briquette cook quicker and provide better flavor.
Electrical Accessories
If an electrical accessory (e.g. rotisserie) is used on your grill, the accessory must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. In Canada, the electrical accessory must be electrically grounded in accordance with the applicable section of the current Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1.
Any electrical accessory should be equipped with a three­prong (grounding) plug, and plugged into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle or wall outlet. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from the plug.
If an extension cord is required, use only a three-prong cord and plug into a properly grounded receptacle as described above.
Do not expose an electrical accessory to water. Avoid using any electrical accessory in wet weather as it may present a shock hazard.
Keep any electrical cord and fuel supply hose away from all heated surfaces.
Cooking
Broilmaster® is happy to provide a cookbook with each of its grills. The cookbook contains helpful cooking tips and instructions as well as great tasting recipes for preparing many delicious foods on your grill.

Maintenance
Cleaning the Grill
Caution: To prevent injury, use care when cleaning a hot grill.
Note: Do not use a commercial cleaner on the cooking grid. Do not brush grids while they are hot. Do not scrape grids.
For baked on residue use a brass (NOT STEEL) brush on the cooking grid and other components.
Burn Off
This process is much like that used in self-cleaning ovens and is most efficient when completed after each use of the grill.
Caution: Do not open the grill during the burn off process. Opening the grill during the burn off process may cause a sudden grease fire flare up that could burn your face and arms. Wait until the grill has cooled before opening.
1. Turn gas knob to HI. Close lid and allow the grill to burn for ten minutes, or until no smoke is present. Do not allow the grill to burn for more than 30 minutes.
2. Turn gas knob and supply to OFF and allow the grill to cool.
3. Wipe COOL grill with a damp cloth to remove soot.
Venturi Tubes
The venturi tubes allow air and gas to mix prior to burning, thus ensuring an efficient flame. Spiders or other small insects may build webs or nests inside the tubes obstructing air flow. Fire, or flashback, can occur, in and/or around obstructed venturi tubes and can cause damage to components beneath the grill or an unsafe condition. To reduce risk, inspections and cleaning should be performed at least twice monthly when spiders are active. If the grill has been unused for an extended period of time inspect the tubes before using the grill.
Clean venturi tubes as follows:
1. Remove the cooking grids and briquette rack.
2. Remove the burner from the grill.
3. Lay the burner face down and remove the four retaining screws from the venturi tube plate and the burner. Figure 16.
4. Use a small flexible brush to remove any debris for the tube(s).
5. Flush with water.
6. Allow the tube(s) to d ry b ef o re reinstalling.
7. R ei ns t al l t he venturi tubes and burner.
Grill Bottom
Periodically remove cooking grids and flare guard to clean the interior of the grill. Scrape off baked on residue with a putty knife or brass brush and rinse with water. Clean the bottom air holes with a small knife.
Burner Maintenance
Stainless steel burners often turn reddish brown after use. This does not effect the performance of the grill. When cleaning the interior of the grill, remove the burners and clean with a brass brush. Wash with water and a mild detergent.
Exterior
Clean regularly with a solution of mild detergent and hot water. Touch-up paint is available from your dealer. Broilmaster® protective covers are recommended. Stain­less steel components can be easily cleaned with a spray-on stainless steel cleaner found in most hardware stores.
