L.P. GAS CYLINDER
Gas cylinders manufactured today have mechanisms to provide worry free barbequing year round: Q.C.C.1 or Type 1-Quick Connect Coupling Valve, ensure fast tank hook-ups requiring only hand tightening. The redundant valve system inhibits the flow of gas to the burner if the connection is not 100% correct. O.P.D. or Overfill Protection Device prevents accidental gas leaks caused by cylinder “over pressurization”, the leading cause of cylinder gas leaks. The float in the tank will automatically stop filling at 80% capacity, leaving a 20% area for the expansion of liquid. Without this safety feature, the relief valve may open and discharge propane, creating a potential safety hazard. An O.P.D. cylinder is easily distinguished by its triangular hand wheel valve. (Figure 3)
Look for the Gas Guardian symbol to easily identify propane cylinders with these safety features.
1. SPECIFICATIONS
Self-contained propane gas barbeque systems are designed to be used only with a 9.1 kg (20 lb) propane cylinder, equipped with a Type 1 cylinder valve and incorporating an overfill protection device (O.P.D). This barbeque cannot be connected to an existing #510 P.O.L. type valve (ones with left-hand threads). The cylinder for your gas barbeque must be constructed and marked in accordance with the specifications of L.P. gas cylinders:
In Canada: The National Standards of Canada CAN/CSA-B339, Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for Transportation of Dangerous Goods; and Commission.
In the U.S.: U.S. Department of Transportation (D.O.T.)
DO NOT CONNECT TO A PROPANE GAS CYLINDER EXCEEDING THIS CAPACITY, OR USE A CYLINDER WITH ANY OTHER TYPE OF VALVE CONNECTION DEVICE.
The Type 1 valve is recognizable by the large external thread on the outlet part of the valve. Standard existing valves do not have these exterior threads.
WARNING
If the above instructions are not followed exactly,
a fire causing death or serious injury may occur.

SAFETY:
• Always turn off the cylinder valve tightly when your barbeque is not in use.
• Handle tank valves with care.
• Never connect an unregulated L.P. gas cylinder to your barbeque.
• Never store a spare cylinder under or near your barbeque when in use.
• Never subject any cylinder to excessive heat or direct sunlight.
• Always keep your in-use cylinder securely fastened in an upright position.
• Do not insert any foreign objects into the valve outlet. You may damage the back-check. A damaged back-check can be the source of a leak. Leaking propane may result in explosion, fire, severe personal injury or death.
• Never fill the cylinder beyond 80% full.
Any attempt to connect a regulator, with other than the:
i) Mating Type 1 connector (recognized by the large black coupling nut) or
ii) Standard #510 P.O.L. fitting, by use of adapters or any other means, could result in damage, fire or injury and may negate the important safety features designed into the Type 1 system. The connection of a #510 P.O.L. fitting will not provide the flow control or temperature shut-off features built into the complete Type 1 system.
We strongly recommend use of a propane cylinder with Q.C.C.I and O.P.D. safety features.
THE CYLINDER MUST ALSO BE EQUIPPED WITH:
a. A shut-off valve terminating in a proper cylinder valve outlet specified in
current standards:
• Canada: CAN/CGA - 1.6a - M98 - Outdoor Gas Grills - Amend.
• U.S.: ANSI Z 21.58a-1998 OUTDOOR COOKING APPLIANCES. b. A listed overfilling protection device (O.P.D.). c. A safety relief valve having direct communication with the vapor space of
the cylinder. d. A collar to protect the tank shut off valve. e. An arrangement for vapor withdrawal. f. A bottom ring for securing to tank support assembly.
THE CYLINDER SHOULD NOT EXCEED 472 MM (18 1/2") IN HEIGHT AND 317 MM (12 1/2") IN DIAMETER.

ELECTRICAL CAUTION
• If any accessory installed on this barbeque requires an external electrical power source, it must be electrically grounded in accordance with local laws or in the absence of local laws, with the Canadian Electrical Code CSA C22.1 or in the U.S., with the National Electrical Code ANSI-NFPA 70.
• The three-prong plug provides protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.
• To ensure continued protection against risk of electric shock, connect to properly earthed outlets only.
• Ensure all electrical supply cords and fuel supply hoses are kept well away from any heated surfaces.
CARING FOR YOUR EQUIPMENT
PROVIDING POWER TO YOUR BARBEQUE
To provide power to the barbecue, plug grounded electrical cord into rear electrical box as shown. (Fig.15)

WARNING
!
TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE:
PROPANE GAS IS HEAVIER THAN AIR, AND WILL COLLECT IN LOW AREAS, INCREASING THE ABOVE RISKS. THEREFORE:
• ALWAYS use the cylinder cap provided with your cylinder whenever the
cylinder is not connected to your barbeque. (Figure 4)
• DO NOT store in a building, garage or any other enclosed area. Store in a
well-ventilated area.
• DO NOT store near any gas burning apparatus or in any high-heat areas
such as a closed car or trunk.
• Transport and store the cylinder in an upright position – do not tip on its side.
• Store out of reach of children.
• DO NOT smoke while transporting a cylinder in your vehicle.
WARNING
• Never fill a cylinder beyond 80% full.
• An over filled or improperly stored cylinder is a hazard due to possible gas release from the safety relief valve. This could cause an intense fire with risk of property damage, serious injury or death.
• If you see, smell or hear gas escaping, immediately get away from the LP cylinder/appliance and call your fire department.
Although it is safe when used properly, careless handling of the propane gas cylinder could result in fire, explosion, and/or serious
injury.
FILLING:
FOR SAFETY REASONS, IF AN OPTIONAL L.P. GAS CYLINDER WAS SUPPLIED WITH YOUR BARBEQUE, IT HAS BEEN SHIPPED EMPTY. THE CYLINDER MUST BE PURGED OF AIR AND FILLED PRIOR TO USING ON YOUR BARBEQUE. WHEN GETTING YOUR CYLINDER FILLED:
• Allow only a qualified L.P. gas dealer to fill or repair your cylinder.
• DO NOT allow the cylinder to be filled beyond 80% full.
• Make sure the L.P. gas dealer checks the cylinder for leaks after filling.
LP CYLINDER EXCHANGE
Many retailers that sell grills offer you the option of replacing your empty LP cylinder through an exchange service. Use only those reputable exchange companies that inspect, precision fill, test and certify their cylinders. Exchange your cylinder only for an OPD safety feature-equipped cylinder as described in the "LP Cylinder" section of this manual.
• Always keep new and exchanged LP cylinders in upright position during use, transit or storage.
• Leak test new and exchanged LP cylinders BEFORE connecting to grill.

NOTE: IMPROPER LIGHTING PROCEDURES CAN CAUSE THE FLOW CONTROL TO ACTIVATE, RESULTING IN REDUCED HEAT OUTPUT. IF THIS IS SUSPECTED, RESET THE FLOW CONTROL BY SHUTTING OFF ALL BURNER CONTROLS AND THE CYLINDER VALVE. WAIT 30 SECONDS, THEN TURN THE CYLINDER VALVE ON EXTREMELY SLOWLY - WAIT 5 SECONDS AND TURN THE BURNER VALVE ON AND LIGHT AS NORMAL.
• Never connect a propane gas barbeque to an unregulated propane gas
supply or any other gas. Do not attempt to alter the hose or regulator in any way.
• The connection fitting must be protected when disconnected from the propane tank. If the fitting is allowed to drag on the ground, nicks and scratches could occur resulting in a leak when connected to the propane tank.
PROPANE AND NATURAL GAS MODELS:
• Do not allow any grease (or other hot material) to fall onto the hose, or
allow the hose to come in contact with any hot surfaces of the barbeque.
• Visually inspect the entire length of the hose assembly before each use
of the barbeque. If it is evident there is excessive abrasion/wear, or the hose is cut, it must be replaced prior to using your barbeque. Only the hose assembly as specified in the Parts List should be used.
• Follow the ‘LEAK TEST’ instructions before lighting your barbeque for
the first time, every time a propane cylinder is refilled, if any gas component is changed, if the regulator flow-limiting device has been activated, after prolonged periods of storage or non-use or at least once per season.
NATURAL GAS MODELS:
• Never use with propane, or any other gases.
• The appliance and its individual shut-off valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping during any pressure testing of the system at test pressure in excess of 3.5 kPa (1/2 p.s.i.).
• The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping
system by closing its individual manual shut-off valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at pressures equal to or less than 3.5 kPa (1/2 p.s.i.).
• The gas supply hose must be a minimum of 3.1 m (10 ft) and a
maximum of 3.6 m (12 ft). Always disconnect hose at quick connect coupling when storing your barbeque.
• Inspect and clean quick connect coupling, and keep it protected
when it’s not in use.
HOSE & REGULATOR
PROPANE GAS MODELS:
Your barbeque is designed to operate on L.P. (propane) gas at a pressure regulated at 2.74 kPa (11" water column). A regulator preset to this pressure is supplied with the barbeque and MUST be used.
This regulator is equipped with the Q.C.C. Type 1, quick connect coupling system, which incorporates the following safety features: (Figure 5)
• It will not allow gas to flow until a positive seal has been made (Figure 6)
• It has a thermal element that will shut off the flow of gas between 115 and 150°C (240 and 300°F)
• It also has a flow-limiting device which, when activated, will restrict the flow of gas to 0.28 cubic metres per hour (10 cubic feet per hour)
Prior to attaching the propane cylinder to the hose and regulator, be sure the cylinder valve and the appliance valves are OFF. The cylinder valve is turned off by rotating the handwheel (see Figure 3) clockwise (left to right) until it stops and all appliance valves should be in the twelve o'clock position. When attaching the regulator to the cylinder, make sure that the small probe in the nipple is centered in the mating Q.C.C. 1 cylinder valve (see Figure 6). Turn the right hand threaded Q.C.C.1 black nut onto the valve in a clockwise motion until there is a positive stop.
DO NOT USE A WRENCH, HAND TIGHTEN ONLY.
Should the large black thermally sensitive coupling nut be exposed to temperatures above 115 - 150°C, it will soften and allow the regulator probe to disengage from the cylinder valve – thereby shutting off the flow of gas. Should this occur, do not attempt to reconnect the nut. Remove the entire regulator assembly, and replace it with a new one.
The cause of the excessive heat should be determined and corrected
before operating your barbeque again. The regulator probe also contains a flow-sensing element, which will limit the flow of gas to the regulator to a manageable amount (0.28 cubic metres/hour) in the event of a hose or regulator rupture. If it is evident that the flow control device has been activated, the cause of the excessive flow should be determined and corrected before using your barbeque again.

CLEANING VENTURI TUBES
Periodic cleaning of the venturi tubes is recommended for optimum burner performance, especially after prolonged storage or a period of non-use.
How to Clean:
• Remove the burner (refer to ‘ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE’).
• Use a venturi cleaning brush and insert the brush into the venturi tube 1 inch at a time, then remove to prevent moving the debris upwards (see Figure 8).
• As you remove the brush head inspect and discard any debris
• Continue this procedure until the entire lengths of all venturi tubes are free of debris.
• Reinstall burner (as per assembly instructions), ensure the venturi tubes are seated over the valve orifices (see Figure 1).
• Perform a Leak Test (see pages 4 & 5).
CHECK TO ENSURE THE BURNER HAS A
GOOD FLAME EACH TIME IT IS TURNED ON.

CLEANING BRUSH
WARNING
It is possible that very small insects could make webs or nest in the venturi tubes, as they are naturally attracted to the smell of gas. This will partially or completely block the flow of gas through the venturi and is indicated by a smoky yellow flame, and/or a burner that is difficult or impossible to light.
Ultimately, it may cause the gas to burn outside the venturis, which can cause a fire resulting in damage to your barbeque and potential personal injury. IF THIS HAPPENS IMMEDIATELY SHUT OFF THE PROPANE AT CYLINDER. When the barbeque has cooled, follow the "How to Clean" steps above.
WARNING
Failure to ensure the above may result in a hazardous fire or explosion causing serious
bodily injury and/or property damage.
REGULATOR
HOSE &
CONNECTIONS
To keep your barbeque working at its peak efficiency as well as contribute to the safe operation of this unit, perform all of the operations below at least once a year -- preferably at the start of each cooking season.
PERFORM A LEAK TEST
A leak test ensures that there are no gas leaks prior to lighting your barbeque.
WHEN A LEAK TEST MUST BE PERFORMED:
• Before lighting your barbeque for the first time
• Every time the propane cylinder is refilled
• If any gas component is changed
• At a minimum once per season
• After prolonged period of storage or non-us
• If the regulator flow-limiting device has been activated The leak test should be performed in a well-ventilated area away from any
open flame, heat or ignition sources.
DO NOT USE A MATCH, OPEN FLAME OR SMOKE DURING LEAK TESTING.
WHAT YOU’LL NEED FOR TESTING:
1. A mixture of 50% liquid dish soap and 50% water.
2. A brush or cloth to apply the mixture.
AREAS TO TEST ON A PROPANE BARBEQUE:
• All propane cylinder welds (see Figure 7A)
• Propane cylinder valve – including threads into cylinder (see Figure 7B)
• Regulator fitting and propane cylinder connection (see Figure 7B)
• All hose connections (see Figure 7C) including side burner tubing, if equipped (see Figure 7D)
• All valve connections (see Figure 7C & D)
AREAS TO TEST ON NATURAL GAS BARBEQUES:
• All hose connections (see Figure 7C)
• All valve connections (see Figure 7C & 7D)
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
HOW TO DO THE TESTING:
1. With the barbeque console control knobs in the ‘OFF’ position, twist the valve on your propane cylinder 1 turn, or the main natural gas valve on.
DO NOT IGNITE THE BURNERS WHILE PERFORMING THE LEAK CHECK.
2. Brush your soap and water solution on all connections and components as outlined above.
3. Observe each place for growing bubbles, which indicate that a leak is present.
4. Shut off the flow of gas while fixing the leak. Tighten any leaking connection and repeat test until no leaks are detected.
5. If the leak(s) cannot be stopped DO NOT USE. Shut off the fuel source at
the valve immediately (if appropriate, remove propane cylinder). Call a certified gas appliance service person, or a gas dealer for proper repairs.

CLEANING OTHER PARTS OF YOUR APPLIANCE
General Grill Cleaning: Do not mistake brown or black accumulation of grease and smoke for paint. Interiors of gas grills are not painted at the factory (and should never be painted). Apply a strong solution of detergent and water or use a grill cleaner with scrub brush on insides of grill lid and bottom. Rinse and allow to completely air dry. Do not apply a caustic grill/oven cleaner to painted surfaces.
BURNER:
At least twice a year, clean your burner when cleaning the venturi tubes. The burner can be gently scraped clean with a brass bristle brush. Ensure that all burner ports (openings) are clear (DO NOT ENLARGE BURNER PORTS). If you find cracks, abnormal holes, or damage caused by corrosion during your inspection and cleaning, replace burner. (SEE WARRANTY).
IGNITOR:
Clean the ignitor clip lightly using a wire brush to remove rust and grease.
DO NOT USE WATER OR CLEAN THE ELECTRODE WITH THE WIRE BRUSH.
Visually inspect the ceramic of the electrode for cracks. The electrode can be wiped with a soft cloth if necessary. If a crack is found, a replacement ignitor system will be required.
CLEANING GRIDS:
After each use, scrub the cooking grids with a stiff long-handled brass brush. Do not use steel brushes, as they can scratch the nickel or porcelain coating. Grids can also be washed with mild detergent. Never use commercial oven cleaners. If rust appears on your cooking grids, remove the rust with a scrub pad and coat the grid with some cooking oil. If excessive wear is evident, you might want to replace or upgrade your cooking grid.
PORCELAIN SURFACES:
Because of glass-like composition, most residue can be wiped away with baking soda/water solution or specially formulated cleaner. Use nonabrasive scouring powder for stubborn stains.
PAINTED SURFACES:
Wash with mild detergent or nonabrasive cleaner and warm soapy water. Wipe dry with a soft nonabrasive cloth.
STAINLESS STEEL SURFACES:
To maintain your grill's high quality appearance, wash with mild detergent and warm soapy water and wipe dry with a soft cloth after each use. Baked-on grease deposits may require the use of an abrasive plastic cleaning pad. Use only in direction of brushed finish to avoid damage. Do not use abrasive pad on areas with graphics.
SIDE SHELVES:
Metal Shelves: Use any household cleaner, except those containing acid or mineral spirits. Be sure to rinse well after cleaning. DO NOT USE AS A CUTTING BOARD. Plastic Shelves: Wash with warm soapy water and wipe dry. A Do not use citrisol, abrasive cleaners, degreasers or a concentrated grill cleaner on plastic parts. Damage to and failure of parts can result.
PLASTIC PARTS:
Wash with warm soapy water and wipe dry. A Do not use citrisol, abrasive cleaners, degreasers or a concentrated grill cleaner on plastic parts. Damage to and failure of parts can result.

CASTING INTERIOR AND WARMING RACK:
At least once a year remove all components from inside your barbeque. Loosen any cooking residue with a scraping tool for large particles and a brass barbeque brush for smaller particles. Scrub with hot water and a strong detergent, then rinse thoroughly or spray barbeque degreaser liberally on all interior surfaces. Be sure to use gloves and eye protection. Let stand for 10 minutes, scrape off residue and repeat if required. Rinse thoroughly with water. Replace all components as outlined in the assembly instructions.
DO NOT USE DEGREASER ON PAINTED OR PLASTIC SURFACES. DO NOT ALLOW EXCESSIVE GREASE OR OTHER RESIDUE TO BUILD UP ON YOUR COOKING SYSTEM AS A FIRE MAY RESULT.
GREASE CUP HOLDER: The grease cup holder is located on the
bottom of the base casting, immediately below the hole through which any grease will drain. The grease cup should be checked and replaced regularly to prevent grease from overflowing.
COVER YOUR BARBEQUE WHEN IT IS NOT IN USE TO PROTECT THE SHELVES FROM THE OUTDOOR ELEMENTS.
STORAGE
More people are discovering the pleasure of year round barbequing. However, if you choose to store your barbeque for the winter or any extended length of time, follow these steps:
• Clean the cooking grids, then oil lightly with cooking oil, wrap in paper and then store the cooking grids indoors.
• Follow the same cleaning method above for the burners and any warming racks.
• Cover the barbeque if it is left outdoors.
• When the barbeque is not in use, the gas must be turned off at the L.P. cylinder valve or main shut off valve, and stored outdoors in a well-ventilated area.
1. With a Propane appliance you can store the barbeque inside, PROVIDED the cylinder is removed from the barbeque and stored outdoors in a well-ventilated area, out of the reach of children. When the cylinder is disconnected from the barbeque, ensure the cylinder valve safety cap is firmly threaded through onto the valve.
2. With a Natural Gas appliance, the gas must be turned off at the individual
gas shut off valve and the hose must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system before storing the barbeque indoors. Install plastic covers to quick connect fittings.
After a period of storage or non-use a leak test should be performed and the burner venturis cleaned prior to use.
Ensure grease trap and cup are in position and clean before using the BBQ.
WARNING
!
Ensure that grease trap and cup are emptied
after each use. If excess grease is allowed to

If the heat output from the burner(s) seem abnormally low, it may be caused by the regulator flow-limiting device being activated by a leak in the gas system, or improper lighting procedures. If this is suspected, shut off the cylinder valve and all burner valves. Perform a leak test to determine if a leak has caused the flow-limiting device to activate. If the leak test is negative, then carefully follow the lighting procedures step-by-step, ensuring all valves (including tank) are off before starting.

BREAKING IN YOUR BARBEQUE
Before cooking on your gas barbeque for
the first time...
Before cooking on your gas barbeque for the first time, you should "break
it in" by operating it for a short period of time without any
food.
To "break in" your barbeque light the barbeque following the
lighting
instructions as outlined on the console or in this manual.
(see
pages 10, 11 & 12)
BREAKING
IN THE MAIN BURNERS:
Close
the
MAIN CASTING LID ONLY
and keep the temperature
on
"HIGH" for 20 minutes.
DO NOT OPEN THE LID DURING
THIS PROCESS.
Then
raise the lid and continue to operate your barbeque on "HIGH"
for
an additional 5 minutes. Your barbeque is now ready for cooking.
BREAKING
IN THE SIDE BURNER:
To "break in" your side burner light the burner following the lighting instruction
s as outlined in this manual. (see page 11) Keep the
temperature
on "HIGH" for 20 minutes. Your side burner is now
ready
for cooking.
CAUTION:
DO NOT CLOSE THE SIDE BURNER LID DURING OR AFTER THE BREAK IN PERIOD WHILE SIDE BURNER IS LIT. THE SIDE BURNER LID SHOULD ALWAYS BE OPEN WHILE SIDE BURNER IS LIT.
Page 13
COOKING TECHNIQUES
PREHEATING THE BARBEQUE
The cooking system and grids require heating prior to adding food.
1.Light your barbeque as outlined in the ‘LIGHTING’ instruction section.
2.Once lit, preheat your barbeque on the HIGH setting with the lid down for 6 to 10 minutes.
NOTE: OPTIONAL SIDE BURNER DOES NOT REQUIRE TO BE PREHEATED. NEVER OPERATE SIDE BURNER WITH SIDE BURNER LID CLOSED.
3.Turn the burner control knobs to the appropriate heat setting prior to adding your food. Preheating your barbeque is not required when you are cooking food using indirect cooking techniques.
MAIN CASTING LID POSITION
Although keeping the main casting lid up or down when cooking on your barbeque is a personal preference, you will find that you will have fewer flare-ups, and your food will cook in less time (therefore using less fuel) if the main casting lid is down. Keep the main casting lid down when cooking food that requires a long cooking period over a low flame, such as indirect cooking.
13
COOKING TEMPERATURES
HIGH Setting: Use the HIGH setting to preheat the barbeque, sear meat such as steak, and to burn off any cooking residue from the grids after cooking your meal. HIGH is rarely used for extended cooking.
MEDIUM Setting: Most grilling or roasting of meat and vegetables, as well as any baking, is best done at a medium heat.
LOW Setting: A low temperature is used when cooking lean meat or delicate items such as fish. All smoke cooking is done at low heat. For the best results, invest in a Meat Thermometer
BARBEQUE COOKING METHODS
Your barbeque is more than just a place to grill your burgers and hotdogs ­the possibilities are as endless as your imagination. But, before you start experimenting, here are some frequently used terms that will help:
Direct Cooking is also known as grilling. This is the most popular cooking method and involves cooking food directly over the flame, such as searing a steak. Other good candidates for this cooking method are thin cuts of meat, vegetables, kabobs and fillets.
Indirect Cooking means the food is cooked away from the direct flame by placing it on the opposite side of the lit burner and allowing the heat to tumble within the closed confines of the closed barbeque, very similar to a convection oven. Much like your oven, you can roast and even bake, provided your barbeque lid is closed.
WARMING RACKS
A warming rack may be included with your barbeque and provides you with additional cooking space away from direct heat. This is useful when cooking delicate items such as fish, boneless chicken breasts or vegetables. Warming racks are also a great place to keep food warm that is already done so you can serve your entire meal at the same time.
Tip: A light application of cooking oil prior to use will help to keep food from sticking to the warming rack.
CONTROLLING FLARE-UPS
Some flare-up during grilling is desirable to create the smoke, which gives barbequed food its unique flavor and appearance. However, excessive flare-up can not only ruin your food, it may lead to a dangerous condition as well. By excessively raising the temperature within your barbeque, particularly if a build up of grease in your barbeque ignites, these flare-ups may result in an uncontrolled grease fire.
TO MINIMIZE FLARE-UPS:
• Trim excess fat from meats before cooking
• Cook fatty meats on a low setting, or by using the indirect method as
described above
• Ensure that your cooking system is free of excess grease from previous usage
• Check that the grease drain hole is not blocked
• Cook with lid down to cut down on the flow of air
• Reduce the heat settings
Fig. 13
ROTISSERIE
MOTOR
LOCATION
Use of a Rotisserie motor is one of the fastest growing barbeque cooking techniques, especially if your barbeque is equipped with a rear rotisserie burner. Just imagine, cooking restaurant style rotisserie meat in your own backyard! Rotisserie cooking allows the food to self-baste while turning on the motorized spit, sealing in the juices while browning the outside surface. Rotisserie-cooked food is an excellent cooking option for large cuts of meat such as roasts, leg of lamb or poultry. Fiesta Barbeque Gear Rotisseries and Rotisserie Basket will allow you to enjoy rotisserie-cooked food on your new Fiesta Barbeque. Locate the motor of the rotisserie on the left side of the barbeque as illustrated in Figure 13.
To provide power to the rotisserie, plug rotisserie cord into rear electrical box as shown (3).
CAUTION: IF USING A ROTISSERIE MOTOR, ENSURE
PARTS ARE COOL TO THE TOUCH THEN REMOVE THE MAIN COOKING GRILLS AND WARMING RACKS. THERE IS A CHANCE THE COOKING GRILLS COULD INTERFERE WITH THE ROTATING FOOD AND SHOULD NOT BE INSTALLED WHILE ROTISSERIE COOKING.
Page 14
14
PROVIDING POWER TO YOUR BARBEQUE
To provide power to the barbecue, plug grounded electrical cord into rear electrical box as shown. (Fig.15)
Plug electrical cord into properly grounded GFI (Ground Fault Interrupt) receptacle. If use of an extension cord is required, be sure that it is a minimum 16 AWG, 3 wire well insulated cord, marked for OUTDOOR USE ONLY and properly grounded. (Fig.14)
CAUTION: To ensure continued protection against risk of
electric shock, connect to properly earthed outlets only.
INTERNAL LIGHT
The barbeque light allows you to cook even when it is dark. This light is pre­assembled and just requires to be plugged into the electrical box at the back. Tip: To ensure light remains clean, use a damp sponge to get rid of smoke residue before lighting grill.
ILLUMINATED SWITCH
The illuminated switch allows you to easily turn the light on and off. (Fig.16)
