GRILL MAINTENANCE AND SAFETY INFORMATION
1. The outdoor grill and surrounding area MUST
remain clear of fl ammable substances such as
gasoline, yard debris, wood, etc.
2. The airfl ow through the vent space located below
the control panel must remain unobstructed.
3. When using propane gas:
a. The required ventilation openings in the
enclosure must be clear of debris. See
the PROPANE SAFETY INFORMATION
section.
b. The propane cylinder, regulator, and
rubber hose must be in a location not
subject to temperature above 125° F (51°
C).
4. The backburner, sideburner, or infrared burner
cover must be removed before using the burner.
5. The fl ames on each burner burn evenly along
the entire burner with a steady fl ame (mostly
blue). If burner fl ames are not normal, check
and clean the orifi ce and burner/venturi tubes
for insects and insect nests. A clogged tube can
lead to a fi re beneath the grill. A proper fl ame
pattern will ensure safe operation and optimal
performance. Adjust the air shutter as needed
(see AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENT).
6. The in-line gas valve or gas cylinder valve must
always be shut OFF when the grill is not in use.
7. The drip collector holes must be clear and
unobstructed. Excessive grease deposits can
result in a grease fi re.
8. Whenever reconnecting any wires, apply a
small amount of dielectric grease to the male
connector, then make the connection. This will
ensure conductivity and prevent moisture from
affecting the contact.
IMPORTANT
IN THE EVENT OF A GREASE FIRE, IMMEDIATELY SHUT OFF THE MAIN GAS VALVE TO THE
UNIT. KEEP THE LID OPEN AND ALLOW THE FIRE TO EXTINGUISH ITSELF. A THOROUGH

Important: Before using the unit, and after each time the
cylinder is removed and reattached, check
the hose for wear (see a.) and check all
connections for leaks. Turn off the unit valves
and open the main cylinder valve, then check
connections with soapy water. Repair any
leaks before lighting the unit.
CAUTION:Always turn the propane cylinder main valve
off after each use, and before moving the unit
and cylinder or disconnecting the coupling.
This valve must remain closed and the
cylinder disconnected while the appliance
is not in use, even though the gas fl ow is
stopped by a safety feature when the coupler
is disconnected.
Carefully inspect the hose assembly each time before the
gas is turned on. A cracked or frayed hose must be replaced
immediately.
If the appliance is stored indoors, the cylinder must be
disconnected and removed. Disconnected
cylinders must be
stored outdoors, out of the reach of children, with threaded
valve plugs tightly installed, and must not be stored in a
building, garage, or any other enclosed area.

CARE & CLEANING
APPLIANCE MUST BE COMPLETELY COOL WHEN CLEANING. DO NOT
SPRAY ANY CLEANER OR LIQUIDS ON THE APPLIANCE WHEN HOT.
The appliance must be cleaned as often as once a month (depending on
use) to prevent grease build-up and other food deposits.
A clean and well maintained appliance prevents the risk of grease fi res.
Reference the GRILL MAINTENANCE AND SAFETY section.
COOKING GRIDS
Before and after each use, clean the cooking grids with a Fire Magic Grill Brush
(sold separately). Before initial use and periodically, it is suggested that the cooking
grids be washed with a mild soap and warm water solution.
Wipe with grain
INTERIOR
THE BURNER PORTS AND CARRY-OVER PORTS/SLOTS MUST BE KEPT CLEAN TO ENSURE PROPER IGNITION
AND OPERATION.
Remove the burner (see the CHECK BURNER ORIFICES section) and clean the ports and slots as required. Also inspect
and clean the burner inlet for insects and nests. A clogged burner can lead to a fi re in the bottom of the appliance. A burner
maintenace kit is available for purchase, see Table 1.
The inside of the appliance may be cleaned periodically with oven cleaner if desired. Follow the oven cleaner instructions for
proper use.
Be careful not to get oven cleaner on the outside surface of the appliance as it can permanently damage the fi nish. DO NOT
use glass cleaner that contains ammonia when cleaning glass surfaces inside of the unit.
Fig. 29-1 Wipe with grain
EXTERIOR
Stainless steel surfaces when exposed to temperatures produced by the grilling process will change color. The stainless steel
will change color from silver to brown and blue. This can be removed by using stainless steel cleaner.
Clean your appliance by fi rst using stainless steel grill cleaner to remove grease and dirt. Always wipe with the grain (See
Fig. 29-1). Next, apply stainless steel polish and wipe down using polish wipes to restore the stainless steel color. To clean
glass surfaces (if applicable), use a quality brand glass cleaner only, not any of the cleaners mentioned above.
If your appliance is installed in a seaside (salt air) or poolside (chlorine) location, it will be more susceptible to corrosion and
must be maintained/cleaned more frequently. Do not store chemicals (such as chlorine or fertilizer) near your stainless steel
appliance.
Due to the nature of stainless steel, surface iron oxide deposits may appear. Do not be alarmed – these deposits are removable
with stainless steel cleaner through prompt and periodic maintenance. If not attended to promptly, permanent pitting may occur.
By following these recommendations, you will enjoy the beauty and convenience of your appliance for many years to come.
DRIP TRAY
The drip collector allows you to brush or scrape residue from the grill’s inner liner into the drip tray. Regular cleaning
of the grill’s interior with oven cleaner will help prevent grease fi res.
After each use, wait for the grill to cool and carefully pull out the drip tray to check it. When a tray liner is nearing full, carefully
lift it out of the drip tray, lifting with both hands to keep the tray level until it is safely discarded. Then insert a new drip tray
liner (see INSTALLATION - INSTALL THE DRIP TRAY section if needed).
If a tray liner is not installed, carefully remove the drip tray and empty the contents. Replace the tray.
Order more drip tray liners through your local Fire Magic dealer.
Note: The foil tray liner is also useful for setting on burners to cover them and catch drippings directly during rotisserie only
cooking.
PROTECTING YOUR APPLIANCE FROM THE WEATHER
An optional cover will protect your appliance when not in use. Allow to cool before covering. Please specify the model number
and serial number of your appliance when ordering a cover.

BURNER AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENT
AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENT
Important: Air shutters are preset at the
factory based on the gas the grill is
built to burn. However, altitude or
other local conditions may require
air shutter adjustment for proper
combustion.
MAIN BURNER(S)
Flames from a properly adjusted main burner with
no wind or breeze present will appear fairly steady,
consistent, and mostly blue. If the tip of a fl ame were
to turn orange, it should only do so briefl y and then
become blue again. The fl ames will appear to burn
while touching the burner ports (see Figure 33-1).
If the fl ames have orange in them and appear to
undulate slowly from side to side, or if some of them
appear to lift off the burner instead of touching it,
then adjust the air shutter, as instructed below.
