USING THE SIDE BURNER
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
First remove the burner cover and any cooking utensils from the burner grate. Push and turn the control knob
to the “HI” position until the burner is lit or 4 seconds pass. If the burner doesn’t ignite, wait 5 minutes for any
accumulated gas to dissipate then try again. If the burner will not light after several attempts, check the troubleshooting instructions on page 18.
MATCH LIGHTING
Hold a lit fireplace match near the burner ports, turn the control knob counterclockwise to “HI”. Rotate the knob
immediately once the burner is lit to the desired setting.
Note:
If you are using propane gas, a slight pop or flash may occur at the burner ports a few seconds after the burner has been
turned “off”. This “extinction pop” is normal for propane gas.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
The side burner will give you years of trouble free service if properly maintained. The body panels and front valve
panel and burner hanger are made from non-rusting high grade stainless steel. The burner is heavy duty cast iron
and brass. The venturi tube is brass.
STAINLESS STEEL
There are many different stainless steel cleaners available. Always use the mildest cleaning procedure first, scrubbing in the direction of the grain. Do not use steel wool as it will scratch the surface. To touch up noticeable
scratches in the stainless steel, sand very lightly with wet 100 grit emery paper in the direction of the grain.
SIDE BURNER GRATE
The side burner grate is porcelain enamel over cast iron for durability. To avoid burns, do not clean a hot grate.
They may be wiped while in place with hot, soapy water, rinsed and wiped dry thoroughly. Never immerse a
hot grate in water. Due to rapid temperature changes the porcelain may pop off the edges of the grates. If the
grates develop chips, do not be concerned as the base metal, cast iron, soon darkens to blend with the porcelain enamel. Use care when wiping areas where the enamel has popped off, the edges may be sharp. If cleaning
necessitates grate removal, care should be taken in lifting them. They are very heavy. Be sure to place them on a
protected surface.
DRIP TRAY
Cap
A stainless steel drip tray with a stainless steel handle is located
under the burner.
It collects any boil-overs or spills. Pull forward to remove. Spills should be
washed off as soon as possible to prevent baked on soil.
BURNERS
For proper lighting and performance, keep the burners clean. It is
