Functional Operation
Burners
Spark ignitors are used on each burner. The ignitor is
located at each gas inlet to provide a grounding surface
for ignition.
Spark System
The spark ignition system consists of a solid state
module and spark ignitors.
Turning a ignitor knob or pressing the spark ignition
button sends approximately 2 sparks per second to the
spark ignitors. This causes a demand for spark from the
spark module containing an electronic circuit which
produces 12 VDC voltage pulses.
To avoid risk of electrical shock, personal injury or death; disconnect power and shut off gas to unit before
servicing, unless testing requires power.

Please read before installing and operating your new Dynasty Grill
1) Your Dynasty gas grill should be properly installed
and serviced. Refer to the installation instructions
provided in this manual. Ask the installer where the
gas supply shut-off is located and how to operate it.
All gas lines must have a shut-off that is readily and
easily accessible.
2) Be sure your grill is correctly adjusted by a qualified
service technician or installer for the type of gas
(Natural or LP) on which it is to be used. Your grill
can be converted for either type of gas. Refer to the
installation instructions provided in this manual.
3) If you smell gas, call a qualified service technician.
Do not try to fix the problem yourself. Follow the
instructions entitled “What To Do If You Smell
Gas” on page 1.
4) Caution: To prevent fire or smoke damage, remove
all packing material from the grill before operating
it.
5) Before starting to cook, clean the grill thoroughly
with hot, soapy water. This is necessary to remove
residuals and solvents used at the factory to clean
and remove dirt, oil and grease which may have
remained from the manufacturing process. The
grates should be thoroughly cleaned.
9) Never grill without the drip pan in place and pushed
all the way to the back of the grill. Without it hot
grease could leak downward and produce a fire or
explosion hazard.
10) Keep any electrical supply cord, or the rotisserie
motor cord away from the heated areas of the grill.
11) Never use the grill in windy conditions. If located in
a consistently windy area (oceanfront, mountaintop,
etc.) a windbreak will be required. Always adhere to
the specified clearances listed in page 6.
12) The area surrounding your Dynasty grill should be
kept clean, and free from flammable liquids and
other combustible materials such as mops, rags,
brooms, etc., as well as solvents, cleaning fluids, and
gasoline.
13) Do not use the grill or open burners as a storage area
for flammable or plastic items, which may ignite.
Do not store spare LP cylinders or flammable
materials in the cart or under a built-in location.
An LP cylinder not connected for use should not
be stored in the vicinity of this or any other
appliance.
14) Never line surface burners with tin foil.
6) Spiders and other insects can nest in the burners of
the grill and block the gas and airflow to the burner
ports. This creates a dangerous condition that can
result in a fire from behind the valve panel. Inspect
and clean the burners periodically; follow guidelines
in Cleaning and Maintenance on pages 34-35.
7) In the event a burner goes out and gas escapes, turn
off burner knobs, open fully the grill hood and let
the air out. Do not attempt to use the appliance until
the gas has had time to dissipate.
8) Unless specifically recommended in this manual, do
not repair or replace any part of the grill. A
qualified technician should perform all other
service. Warranty service must be performed by an
authorized service agency.
15) When the unit is not in use and connected to a selfcontained LP-gas supply system, the gas must be
turned off at the supply cylinder.
16) When not in use it is permissible for a self-contained
LP-gas outdoor appliance, to be stored indoors only
if the cylinder is disconnected and removed.
Cylinders must be stored outdoors out of the reach o
children and must not be stored in a building, garage
or any other enclosed area.
17) Never locate this appliance under an overhead,
unprotected combustible construction or enclosed
area such as a garage, shed, or breezeway. Keep clea
of trees and shrubs.
18) This outdoor gas cooking appliance is not intended
to be installed in or on recreational vehicles and/or
boats.
1) Never leave children unattended in the area where
the grill is being used.
2) Do not store items of interest to children around or
below the grill, in the cart or masonry enclosure.
3) Never allow children to sit or stand on any part of
the grill or to crawl inside a cart or enclosure.
Use Precautions
1) Never leave the grill and top burners unattended
while using high flame settings. Boilovers cause
smoking, and greasy boilovers may ignite.
2) Always use the proper size pan. Select utensils
with flat bottoms large enough to cover the burner.
The use of undersized utensils exposes the sides of
the utensils to direct contact with a portion of the
flame. This can scorch utensils, and hamper
cleanup. Excessive flames on large stainless steel
pots can result in permanent discoloration. For
best results, we recommend commercial quality
aluminum pans and utensils.
3) Always position handles of utensils inward, so
they do not extend over adjacent work areas or
cooking areas. This reduces the risk of burns,
ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due
to accidental contact with the utensils.
4) Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a
flaming pan. Turn appliance off and smother the
flaming pan with a tight-fitting lid, cookie sheet or
flat tray. For flaming grease outside of the pan,
smother with baking soda, or use a dry chemical or
foam type fire extinguisher.
5) Never let clothing, potholders or other flammable
materials come in contact with or too close to any
grate, burner or hot surface until it has cooled.
Fabric may ignite and result in personal injury.
6) When using the grill, do not touch the grill rack,
burner grate or immediate surroundings as these
areas become extremely hot and could cause burns.
7) Proper apparel is a safety consideration. Never
wear loose fitting or hanging garments while using
your Dynasty grill.
8) Only use dry potholders – do not use a towel or
other bulky cloth in place of potholders. Moist or
damp potholders used on hot surfaces could cause
burns from steam.
9) Do not heat any unopened glass or metal container
of food on the grill. Pressure may build up and
cause the container to burst resulting in serious
harm or damage to the grill.
Safe and satisfactory operation of your Dynasty grill
INSTALLATION OF YOUR DYNASTY GRILL
depends upon its proper installation. The installation,
adjustments and service of your Dynasty grill must be
performed only by qualified installers and service
technicians. This is necessary to insure proper
operation and also to prevent accidents.
Location
When determining a suitable location take into account concerns such as exposure to wind,
proximity to traffic paths and keeping any gas supply lines as short as possible. Locate the grill
only in a well ventilated area. For free standing models allow 12” from the sides and rear to
adjacent combustible construction.
Built-in Installation
Your Dynasty grill is designed for easy installation into a non-combustible enclosure.
The supporting deck and counter must be level and flat. When determining the final location for
your grill it is required that ventilation holes be provided in the enclosure so that gas will not
become entrapped in the event of a leak (See pages 8 and 9).
Built-in Design Models
If using a rear wall, locate the weather proof electrical outlet on the left-hand side for the rotisserie
motor. The rotisserie motor requires a 110/120 volt supply. The power supply cord on the motor is
equipped with a 3 prong (grounded) plug for protection against shock hazard. Do not cut or remove
the grounding prong from the plug.

Prior to shipment each burner is tested and adjusted at the
factory. Due to variations in the location, conditions, gas
supply or when converting from one gas to another,
readjustment of the burners may be necessary.
The flames of the burners (except the rotisserie burners)
should be visually checked and compared to that of the
figure on the right.
Flames should be blue and stable with no yellow tips,
excessive noise or lifting. If any of these conditions exist,
check if dirt, debris, spider webs, etc. block the air shutter or
burner ports. Proceed with air shutter adjustment.
Air Shutter Adjustment
A sheet metal disk known as an air shutter governs the
amount of air entering the burner. It is locked in place by a
setscrew, which must be loosened with a screwdriver for
adjusting.
1. To access the grill burner air shutters, set all the knobs
in the off position. Make sure the grill is cool.
2. Remove the grill racks and the briquette trays complete
with the briquettes.
3. Slide out and remove any smoker drawer.
4. Light the burner. If the flame is yellow, it indicates that
there is insufficient air. If the flame is noisy and tends
to lift away from the burner, it indicates too much air.
Refer to step 6 for adjustments.
5. For the following instructions be careful as the burner
may be very hot. Wait until it cools down. Grasp the
burner and lift it up and slightly to the rear of the unit.
Angle the burner sideways carefully clearing the orifice
and the opening at the front. Remove the burner.
6. With a screwdriver, loosen the lockscrew on the face of
the air shutter and adjust the air shutter clockwise to
allow more air if the flame is yellow. Adjust the air
shutter counter-clockwise if the flame is noisy and tends
to lift.
7. Reinstall the burner. Turn on and observe the flame.
When flame is as described in “Adjustments and
Efficiency” turn the burner off. Be sure to tighten air
shutter setscrews when finished.
8. Repeat procedure for each burner requiring
adjustment.
9. Once adjusted, reverse steps to reassemble.
Low Setting Adjustment
Grill and Open Burners
The valves on your Dynasty grill feature an adjustable
low setting. Due to fluctuations in gas pressure, heating
value or gas conversion, you may feel it necessary to
increase or decrease gas flow in the low position.
1. Begin by lighting the burner.
2. Turn the control knob to the lowest setting, all the
way counter clockwise. The arrow will stop between
MED and LOW.
3. Remove knob.
4. Hold the valve shaft with a pair of pliers and insert a
thin, flat tipped screwdriver into the shaft. While
viewing the burner, adjust to a minimum stable
flame.
5. WARNING! Look for stability in the low flame
setting. A too small burner flame may go out or be
extinguished easily. Unburned gas can then escape
creating a hazardous condition.
installation
NOTE: It is normal to hear a popping sound
when the burners are first turned OFF.
Perform a leak test at least once each year whether the gas supply cylinder has
been disconnected or not. In addition, anytime the gas cylinder is connected to
the regulator or any part of the gas system is disconnected or replaced, conduct the
leak testing. This applies to natural gas as well as LP Gas.
As a safety precaution, remember to always leak test your grill outdoors in a wellventilated area. Never smoke or permit sources of ignition in the area while doing
a leak test. Do not use a flame, such as a lighted match to test for leaks. Use only
a leak testing solution as specified below.
Leak Testing Procedure
1. Prepare a leak testing solution of sudsy water by
mixing in a spray bottle half liquid soap and half
water.
2. Check and make sure all the control knobs are in the
OFF position.
3. Turn cylinder valve knob counter clockwise one turn
to open.
4. Apply leak-testing solution by spraying on joints of
the gas delivery system.
5. Blowing bubbles in the soap solution indicates that a
leak is present.
6. Stop a leak by tightening the loose joint or by
replacing the faulty part with a replacement part
recommended by the manufacturer. Do not attempt
to repair the cylinder valve if it should become
damaged. The cylinder must be replaced.
7. If you are unable to stop a leak, shut off the gas
supply at the cylinder valve. Remove the cylinder
from the grill. Call an authorized gas appliance
service technician or LP gas dealer. Do not use the
appliance until the leak is corrected.
8. Push in and turn any control knob to release pressure
in the hose and manifold.
9. Turn off the control knob.
Installing the Heat Deflector
The Heat Deflector should be fully inserted in its
position, as shown, before using the grill.
Spiders and other insects can nest in the burners of the grill and block the gas and
airflow to the burner ports. This creates a dangerous condition that can result in a
fire from behind the valve panel. It is good practice to inspect the burners for
blockage and clean them regularly; in addition, such inspection and cleaning is
absolutely necessary if any of the following conditions exists:
a) Smell of gas in conjunction with a yellow flame.
b) Grill does not heat completely.
c) Grill heats unevenly.
In case any of the above conditions is present, turn off the grill immediately; after
allowing it to cool, inspect and clean the burners as described on pages 34-35 of
this manual.
SPIDERS AND OTHER INSECTS WARNING…
safety
BEFORE USING YOUR GRILL...
Prior to turning the gas on, inspect the gas supply piping or hose. Make sure only
the supplied hose and regulator are being used. If signs of abrasion, cuts wear and
tear, or other damage are noticed on the hose, it should be replaced. Contact your
local Dynasty dealer for replacement parts.
Your Dynasty grill consists of a set of burners, a bed of
USING YOUR GRILL
ceramic briquettes and a heat retaining cooking rack.
Each burner is rated at 25,000 BTU. The grill burners,
encompassing the entire cooking area, are
side ported to minimize blockage for falling grease
and debris. Above the burners are stainless steel trays
which support the ceramic briquettes and protect the
burner ports from blockage.
Grilling
Grilling requires high heat for searing and proper
browning. Most foods are cooked at the HI heat
setting for the entire cooking time. However, when
grilling large pieces of meat or poultry, it may be
necessary to turn the heat to a lower setting after the
initial browning. This cooks the food through without
burning the outside. Foods cooked for a long time or
basted with a sugary marinade may need a lower heat
setting near the end of the cooking time. Warming
rack is used for defrosting or for keeping food warm
GRILL RACK
while grilling.
Grilling Hints
x The doneness of meat, whether rare, medium, or well done, is affected to a
large degree by the thickness of the cut. Expert chefs say it is impossible to
have a rare doneness with a thin cut of meat.
x The cooking time is affected by the kind of meat, also by the size and the
shape of the cut, the temperature of the meat when cooking begins, and the
degree of doneness desired.
x When defrosting meats it is recommended that it be done overnight in the
refrigerator as opposed to a microwave. This generally yields a juicer cut of
meat.
x Use a spatula instead of tongs or a fork to turn the meat. A spatula will not
puncture the meat and let the juices run out.
x To get the juiciest meats, add seasoning or salt after the cooking is finished
and turn the meat only once (juices are lost when the meat is turned several
times). Turn the meat just after the juices begin to bubble to the surface.
x Trim any excess fat from the meat before cooking. To prevent steaks or chops
from curling during cooking, slit the fat around the edges at 2-inch intervals.
x Do not leave the grill unattended while cooking.
Make sure all burner controls are off. Do not attempt to
light the burners if the smell of gas is present.
For LP units, check the connection with a soap and water
solution after attaching the hose. Make sure there is gas
in the tank and it is sitting upright.
1. Make sure the drip tray is in place.
2. Light the grill burners using the instructions below.

The smoker drawer consists of a stainless steel slide out drawer positioned near
the front just above the grill burners. It is designed for easy use.
After deciding which wood chips to use (see chart below), soak them thoroughly
in water, then place them into the drawer. Light the grill burner next to the
smoker box and leave on HIGH setting for 5 to 10 minutes to initiate smoking.
Lower the flame to appropriate cooking setting, then place meat on the grill. The
specially designed smoker will smoke the wood while the grill cooks the food.
Keeping the grill lid closed as much as possible will maximize the smoking effect.
If the wood chips do flame up, add a small amount of water to extinguish the
flame. This should be done carefully by pulling the drawer out slightly. Use
caution when adding water to a hot drawer to avoid steam burns, and never
completely remove a hot drawer.
The drawer may also be filled with water to produce steam. Whether smoking or
steaming the lid should remain closed as much as possible to maximize the effect.
During extended roasting periods it is normal to add fresh wood chips to the
drawer several times.

Cooking with the Rotisserie
The rotisserie system is designed to cook items from the back using infrared heat. The
location of the burner allows the placement of a rotisserie-basting pan (included)
beneath the food to collect juices and drippings for basting and gravy. To flavor the
contents of the basting pan, you can add herbs, onion, garlic, or spices. Hams are
especially good with the addition of pineapple slices and brown sugar to the basting pan.
Operating The Rotisserie
1. To load the rotisserie rod, hold the handle firmly
while sliding one of the fork assemblies (prongs
facing away from the handle) onto the rod. Push the
rod through the center of the food, then slide the
other holder (prongs toward the food) onto the rod.
Center the meat on the rod and push the fork
assemblies firmly together. Tighten the
thumbscrews. To secure any loose portions of your
meat, use butcher string (never use nylon or plastic
string). Place basting pan under the food to collect
the drippings.
2. To use the rotisserie, first mount the motor on the left
side of the grill. Place securely onto support bracket.
3. The rod of the rotisserie system is assembled into the
motor by placing the pointed end into the motor and
resting the threaded end on the support at the side of
the grill. Once the rod is pushed as far as possible
into the motor, the grooved end of the rod should rest
on the right side bracket.
4. If necessary, to offset unbalanced loads, slide the
counter weight on to the rod. With the counter
weight loose, allow the loaded rod to rotate and come
to a stop. Now rotate the counter weight above the
rod in a vertical position and tighten the thumbscrew.
You can slide the counter weight away from or closer
to the rotisserie rod as needed for balanced operation.
5. Light rotisserie burners following instructions on
page 23. Once lit, the rotisserie burner will reach
cooking temperature in about 1 minute. The
orange/red glow will even out in about 5 minutes.
2. Push in and turn counter clockwise the gas control
knob for the IR (infrared) burner to the HI position.
This is the knob farthest to the left. On units with
two IR burners, the control knob for the right IR
burner is the knob farthest to the right.

Flame Height
The correct height of the flame depends on the size and
material of the utensil being used, the food being cooked
and how much liquid is in the utensil.
Here are some basic rules for selecting the flame height.
x The flame should never extend beyond the bottom of
the pan.
x Utensils, which conduct heat slowly (such as glass-
ceramic) should be used with a low or medium flame
unless you are cooking with a large amount of liquid.
x When boiling, adjust the flame to the size of the
cookware until boiling begins. Then lower flame
height to the minimum needed to maintain a gentle
boil. Foods cook just as fast at a gentle boil, as they
do at a vigorous boil.
The full width drip tray will collect grease from the grill
section. It should be emptied and cleaned out after
every use. Allow the pan and its contents to cool before
attempting to clean. Slide out the tray and wipe it clean.
By cleaning the grease from the pan after every use you
avoid the possibility of a grease fire. Make sure the drip
tray is fully inserted back into its track before using the
grill.
Cleaning the Ceramic Briquettes and
Radiant Trays
It is not necessary to remove the briquettes from the
radiant trays for cleaning. They burn themselves clean
during the next cooking operation or if desired you can
burn clean them by lighting the grill and letting it burn
on high for about 30 minutes.
Periodically the briquette trays should be removed and
any debris cleaned out. How often you use the grill
and the amount and type of food cooked will
determine when it is necessary to clean the briquette
trays. Never attempt to handle a hot briquette tray.
DRIP TRAY
BRIQUETTES AND TRAY

Cleaning the Stainless Steel
Your Dynasty grill is made of all welded #304 stainless steel. This is a nonrusting and non-magnetic stainless steel.
There are many different stainless steel cleaners available. Always use the mildest
cleaning procedure first, scrub in the direction of the grain; use more harsh
methods only when necessary.
To touch up noticeable scratches in the stainless steel, sand very lightly with dry
100 grit emery paper in the direction of the grain.
Specks of grease can gather on the surface of the stainless steel and bake on to the
surface and give the appearance of rust. For removal use an abrasive pad (like
Scotch Brite) in conjunction with a stainless steel cleaner.
ever use steel wool to clean the grill and never clean the stainless when it is hot.
Be especially careful when cleaning the polished highlights on your grill and
scrub only when absolutely necessary.
The grill burners should be cleaned thoroughly before using your grill
after long periods of storage and monthly during regular use.
1. Be sure the gas supply is off and the knobs are in the OFF position.
Make sure the grill is cool.
2. Remove the grill racks and the briquette trays complete with the
briquettes.
3. Slide out and remove any smoker drawer.
4. Grasp the burner and lift it up and slightly to the rear of the unit.
Angle the burner sideways carefully clearing the orifice and the
opening at the front. Remove the burner.
5. Repeat steps above with each of the burners in your unit.
6. Clean the exterior of the burner with a brass bristle brush. Clear any
clogged ports with a straightened paper clip. Shake out any debris
through the air shutter.
7. Using a flashlight, as shown, inspect the interior of the burner for any
blockages. If any are found, remove them with a straightened metal
wire coat hanger as shown. Again shake out any debris through the
air shutter.
8. Before replacing the burners, check grill bottom for any accumulation
of grease, carbon and burnt food. Clean bottom as described below.
9. Replace the burner by sliding the air shutter over the orifice, centering
the burner on the orifice hole. When properly centered, the burner
rear legs will fit into the square mounting holes of the burner support
rail. It is extremely important to properly center the burner on the orifice. Be careful not to disturb the air shutter position. Lower the
burner on to the support rail making sure it is level and does not rock.
10. Replace the briquette tray and briquettes, again making sure the tray is
level and stable.
11. Replace the grill racks.
12. Light all burners and check for flame characteristics as described on
Adjustments and Efficiency section on page 12.
WARNING: Never spray aerosol cleaners onto or around a hot grill;
The aerosol propellant or cleaner may ignite or explode causing serious
injury.
The heat deflector will collect grease and food
residuals. It should be removed and cleaned after
every use.
When removing the heat deflector, use care to avoid
chipping its ceramic surface. Wash with a mild
cleaner/degreaser, rinse and dry. Make sure the heat
deflector is fully inserted back in its position before

WARRANTY SERVICE
ny implied warranties of merchantability and fitness applicable to the equipment are limited in duration to the period of coverage of this express
written warranty. This warranty grants specific legal rights to the purchaser. Other rights, which may vary from state to state, may also apply. Title to
the merchandise passes to the consignee upon acceptance by the carrier. After acceptance by the carrier, the merchandise travels at the risk of the
purchaser. In the event of freight damage do not refuse shipment. Advise the agent of the damage, and note the details of that damage on the freight
bill before any freight charges are paid. File a claim for damages with the freight agent. In the event of concealed damage (shipment arrives in
apparent good order, but upon unpacking is found to be damaged) immediately notify the freight agent in writing and retain a copy of the notification.
Under the terms of this warranty, service must be performed by a factory authorized
DYNASTY service agent or representative. Service will be provided during normal
business hours. Labor performed at overtime or premium rates shall not be covered by
this warranty. To obtain warranty service, contact the dealer from whom the product
was purchased, an authorized DYNASTY service agent or DYNASTY. Provide model
and serial number and date of original purchase.
IMPORTANT: Retain original proof of purchase to establish warranty period.
The Dynasty Bar Tender is made of #304 stainless steel for long lasting beauty and service. It is nonrusting and non-magnetic.
Use stainless steel cleaner to clean the unit.
Mild soap and water can be used to wipe dirt.
Do not use steel wool to clean unit. Steel wool could leave metal fibers that will cause
rusting.
Do not use abrasives on the polished surfaces or they will loose their luster and
highlights. Use mild chrome cleaner, metal polish or WD40 to bring back luster.
To touch up minor scratches in the stainless steel surface, use a mild abrasive pad like
Scotch Brite or emery sand paper with 100 dry grit. Scrub the affected area very lightly
and always in the direction of the grain.
