SAFETY PRACTICES & PRECAUTIONS
• Always follow lighting instructions.
• Lid must be off before lighting
thegrill or side burners.
• Check for gas leaks before lighting.
• Never lean over an open grill when
lighting. Serious burns may result.
• Hot surfaces surrounding grill
grates could cause serious burns.
• Always leave at least 12" clearance
tocombustibles around the grill.
• Never store a spare LP cylinder
under or near this unit.
• Never fill the tank beyond 3/4 full. A
fire causing death or serious injury
may occur.
WARNING
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE!
Certain Liquid Propane dealers may fill liquid propane cylinders for use in the outdoor appliance beyond cylinder
filling capacity. This “Overfilling” may create a dangerous condition.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE!
Be sure to remove covers from grill, griddle or side burners before attempting to light or use.
“Overfilled” tanks can build up excess pressure. As a safety device, the tanks pressure relief valve will vent
propane gas vapor to relieve this excess pressure. This vapor is combustible and therefore can be ignited. To
reduce this danger, you should take the following safety precautions:
1.
When you have your tank filled, be sure you tell the supplier to fill it to no more than 3/4 (75%) of its total
capacit
2
. If you own or use a spare tank, or have a disconnected tank, you should NEVER
store it near or under the outdoor appliance/cart unit or heat box, or near any
other ignition or heat source. A metallic sticker with this warning is provided with
the grill to remind you, your family and all others who may use your grill of these
safety precautions. Install this sticker close to your barbeque grill.
3. Do not store a full tank in direct sunlight.

SAFETY PRACTICES & PRECAUTIONS
■
Do not use aluminum foil to line drip pans, grates or radiants. This can severely upset combustion air flow or trap
excessive heat in the control area. The result of this can be melted knobs or damaged ignition components.
■
When using the side burners always use flat bottomed pans which are large enough to cover the side burner. Adjust
the flame so that it heats only the bottom of the pan to avoid ignition of clothing. Position handles inward away from
open edges of the unit to avoid burns associated with unintentional spillovers. Hold the handle of the pan to prevent
movement of it when turning or stirring food. For proper lighting and performance of the burners, keep the ports
clean. It is necessary to clean them periodically for optimum performance.
■
Clean the outdoor appliance with caution. Avoid steam burns; do not use a wet sponge or cloth to clean the outdoor
appliance while it is hot. Some cleaners produce noxious fumes or can ignite if applied to a hot surface.
■
Be sure all outdoor appliance controls are turned off and the outdoor appliance is cool before using any type of
aerosol cleaner on or around the outdoor appliance. The chemical that produces the spraying action could, in the
presence of heat, ignite or cause metal parts to corrode.
■
Do not use the grill for cooking excessively fatty meats or products which promote flare-ups.
■
Never use outdoor appliance without the drip pan and grease tray in place and pushed all the way to the back.
Without the grease pan, hot grease could leak downward and produce a fire or explosion hazard.
■
Do not operate the outdoor appliance under unprotected combustible construction. Use only in well ventilated areas.
Do not use in buildings, garages, sheds, breezeway, covered structure or other such over head structures and
enclosed areas. This unit is for outdoor use only.
■
If a cart unit is stored indoors, ensure that it is cool, fold the optional side shelf(s) down, and never push or pull on
the side shelves. If LP, the LP cylinder must be unhooked and stored outside in a well ventilated area, out of reach of
children.
■
Do not use charcoal or lighter fluid in the outdoor appliance.
■
Never use the outdoor appliance in a windy area.
■
Never use a dented or rusty LP tank. Keep the ventilation openings of the cylinder enclosure free and clear from
debris.
■
Use only dry potholders; moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may cause burns from steam. Do not use a towel
or bulky cloth in place of potholders. Do not let potholders touch hot portions of the outdoor appliance.
■
Have an ABC rated Fire Extinguisher accessible – never attempt to extinguish a grease fire with water or ot her liquids.
■
To avoid burns when cooking, use long handled BBQ tools.

GAS HOOK-UP
LP GAS HOOK UP (TYPE 1 OR QCC1 REGULATOR):
All outdoor appliances orificed for use with LP gas come equipped with a high capacity hose/regulator assembly
for connection to a standard 20 lb. LP cylinder (Type 1). The LP tank is not included.
Connection: 1/2" NPT male with a 3/8" Flare adapter (included). LP Hose with a quick disconnect and fittings are
included. Operating pressure: 11.0" W.C.
CAUTION!
Before connecting LP tank to regulator, check that all burners are in the “OFF” position and the lid has been
removed.
To connect the LP regulator/hose assembly to the tank/valve assembly, first make sure the main valve on the
tank is completely closed. Although the flow of gas is stopped when the Type 1 system is disconnected as part
of its safety feature, you should always turn off the LP tank main valve (Fig. 23) after each use and during
transport of the tank or unit. Insert the regulator inlet into the tank valve and turn the black coupler clockwise
until the coupler tightens up.
burner control valves on the unit to the “HI” position for about 20 seconds to allow the air in the system to
purge, turn valves off and wait 5 minutes before attempting to light the burners.
To disconnect the coupler, first make sure the main tank valve is turned off. Grasp the coupler and turn counter
clockwise. The inlet will then disengage. Remove the inlet from the tank valve opening if it has not already
done so when it disengaged. Your local LP filling station should be equipped with the proper equipment to fill
your tank.
Do not overtighten the coupler. Turn the main tank valve on, push and turn the
LP TANK REQUIREMENTS:
A dented or rusty LP tank may be hazardous and should be checked by your LP supplier. The cylinder that is
used must have a collar to protect the cylinder valve. Never use a cylinder with a damaged valve. Always
check for leaks after every LP tank change. The LP gas cylinder must be constructed and marked in accordance
with the specifications for LP gas cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT or CAN/CSA-B339) and
designed for use with a Type 1 system only. Do not change the regulator/hose assembly from that supplied with
the unit or attempt to use a Type 1 equipped regulator/hose assembly with a standard 510 POL tank/valve
assembly. The cylinder must be provided with a shut-off valve terminating in a LP gas supply cylinder valve
outlet specified, as applicable, for connection Type 1.
If the appliance is stored indoors, the cylinder must be
disconnected and removed from the appliance. Cylinders must be stored outdoors in a well-ventilated area

LEAK TEST POINTS
LEAK TESTING - GRILL/GRIDDLE UNIT
GENERAL:
lthough all gas connections on the outdoor appliance are leak tested at the factory prior to shipment, a
A
complete gas tightness check must be performed at the installation site due to possible mishandling in
shipment, or excessive pressure unknowingly being applied to the unit. Periodically check the whole system for
leaks, or immediately check if the smell of gas is detected.
Before Testing:
Do not smoke while leak testing. Extinguish all open flames. Never leak test with an open flame. Make a
soap solution of one part liquid detergent and one part water. You will need a spray bottle, brush, or rag to
apply the solution to the fittings. For LP units, check with a full cylinder. The valve panel must be removed to
check the valves and fittings. Remove the knobs, then remove the 2 screws which fasten the valve panel to the
unit (you will need a Phillips screw driver for this). Pull the valve panel outward and unplug the wires from the
ignition module.
To Test:
Make sure all control valves are in the “OFF” position. Turn the gas supply “on”. Check all connections from the
supply line, or LP cylinder up to and including the manifold pipe assembly. Apply the soap solution around the
connection, valve, tubing and end of the manifold. Soap bubbles will appear where a leak is present. If a leak is
present, immediately turn off gas supply, tighten any leaking connections, turn gas on, and recheck. Check all
the gas connections at the base of the control valves where they screw into the manifold pipe.
If you cannot stop a gas leak, turn off the gas supply and call your local gas utility, or the dealer you purchased
the appliance from. Only those parts recommended by the manufacturer should be used on the outdoor
appliance. Substitution can void the warranty.
WARNING!
Do not use the outdoor appliance un

BURNER ADJUSTMENT - SIDE BURNER
Your new side burner is equipped with burners typical of those used in restaurants (Fig. 33). These burners are
designed for maximum cleanability and controlability. The burner
should never be operated if the cap is not in place.
BURNER EFFICIENCY AND FLAME CHARACTERISTICS
It is necessary to keep the burner ports and the igniters clean for
proper lighting and efficient performance of the burners. The
burner flame should burn completely around the burner with no
excessive noise or lifting. The flame should be blue in color and
stable with no yellow tips. During initial use, foreign particles in
the gas line, or dust in the air around the appliance may cause an
orange flame. This will disappear with use.

BURNER ADJUSTMENT - GRILL/GRIDDLE UNIT
Each outdoor appliance burner is tested and adjusted at the factory prior to shipment; however, variations in the
ocal gas supply or a conversion from one gas type to another may make it necessary to adjust the burners. The
l
flames of the burners should be visually checked and compared to that of the drawing in Fig. 35. Flames should
be blue and stable with no yellow tips, excessive noise or lifting. If any of these conditions exist, check if the air
shutter or burner ports are blocked by dirt, debris, spider webs, etc. Proceed with air shutter adjustment. The
amount of air which enters a burner is governed by a sheet metal cup at the inlet of the burner called an air
shutter. It is locked in place by a screw which must be loosened prior to lighting the burner for adjustment.
OUTDOOR APPLIANCE BURNER FLAME HEIGHT:
To access the outdoor appliance burner air shutters, first remove
the valve panel by removing it the same way as described on page
20, section “Before Testing”. With a screw driver, loosen the lockscrew on the face of the air shutter. Light the burner and adjust
according to the directions (Fig. 35).
To Adjust:
1.
Be careful as the burner may be very hot.
2.
If the flame is yellow, indicating insufficient air, turn the air shutter
counterclockwise to allow more air to the burner.
3.
If the flame is noisy and tends to lift away from the burner,
indicating too much air, turn the air shutter clockwise.
Fig. 35 Burner Flame Height
4.
Once adjusted turn the burner off and reverse steps to reassemble.
LOW SETTING ADJUSTMENT:
The valves on the outdoor appliance 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.
To Adjust:
1.
Light the burner.
2.
Turn the control knob to the lowest setting (all the way counter-clockwise).
3.
Remove the knob.
4.
While holding the valve shaft with pliers, insert a thin, flat tipped screwdriver
into the shaft and while viewing the burner adjust to a minimum stable flame (Fig. 36).

USE OF THE GRILL
Each grill section consists of a large stainless steel burner, stainless steel heat baffles, a
series of ceramic rods encased in a stainless steel radiant tray, and a stainless steel heat
retaining grates. Each burner is rated at 25,000 Btu/hr. Below the burners there is a
stainless steel heat baffle which reflects usable heat upward into the cooking area and
reduces temperatures of the drip pan below. Above the burners are stainless steel
radiant trays which encase the ceramic rods and protect the grill burner ports from
blockage (Fig. 54).
The grill is supplied with radiant ceramic rods. Because of the porosity of ceramic rods,
performance is superior in the rods’ ability to capture heat as it rises from the grill burners. They also possess
the thermal mass needed for results. Flare ups are controlled because our radiant ceramic rods keep grease from
getting to the flames and igniting. The intense heat produced by this system produces true outdoor-cooked
flavor as fats and juices are brought to the surface of the food and caramelized. Discoloration is normal after
use.

USING THE GRILL
HEATHEAT
IMPORTANT - Using the Grill:
Grilling requires high heat for searing and proper browning. Most foods are cooked between “MEDIUM” and
“LOW”heat setting for the entire cooking time. However, when cooking 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. It is best to use sugary sauces at the end of the cooking process to
help prevent burning.
The grates are reversable. The “W” grate is used for meat products and lets the fat drain down the grooves. The
opposite side is “ ” shape for fish, vegetables, and fruit which don’t have any fat.
1.
Check to be certain the drip pan and grease tray are in place.
2.
Light the grill burners using the instructions on page 27.

USING THE GRIDDLE
The griddle is made from stainless steel, highly polished to provide a
smooth cooking surface. It is normal for it to darken with use as oils
cook onto the surface to provide a nonstick base or “seasoning”.
ince the griddle is made from stainless steel, the surface will not
S
rust. However, after use it may have a rust stain or rust color. The
riddle burner is controlled by the gas burner underneath the
g
griddle plate and cycles on and off to maintain the set temperature.
The griddle assembly is not to be removed for cleaning and is held in
place by one front screw and two rear screws. These are mainly
there to keep the griddle from shifting in transit, thus avoiding
breakage of any ignition components.
THERMOCOUPLE
The griddle burner is equipped with a thermocouple and safety valve
system which monitors the burner. This will turn the gas off if the
ner isn’t lit or the knob is not held in. The burner will ignite
bur
within 4 seconds after the gas reaches the burner.
BEFORE USING THE GRIDDLE FOR THE FIRST TIME OR
TO RE-SEASON
1. Clean the griddle thoroughly with hot, soapy water to remove any
protective coating.
GRIDDLE FLUE
COVER
Fig. 56
2. Rinse with a mixture of 1/2 cup water and 1/4 cup white vinegar. Dry thoroughly.
3. Pour 1 teaspoon vegetable oil into the center of the griddle (do not use corn oil as it gets sticky). Rub the oil
over the entire surface of the griddle using a heavy soft cloth.
4. Turn the control knob to a Medium setting (350º F). Turn the heat “off” when the oil begins to smoke. Allow the
griddle to cool.
5. Repeat Step 3. Be sure to cover the entire surface with the oil.
6. Repeat Step 4. Allow the griddle to cool. Wipe the entire surface of the griddle using a heavy soft cloth. Apply a
very thin layer of vegetable oil. The griddle is now ready to use. If the griddle is not used for a period of time,
re-season it occasionally.
NOTE:
It is normal for the griddle to darken with use.
USE OF THE GRIDDLE
Before starting to cook on the griddle, be sure the flue cover (Fig. 56), grease cup and drip tray are in place.
Preheat griddle for 15 minutes with the control knob set to “HI”. When the griddle is preheated, turn the knob to

REGULATOR AND HOSE REPLACEMENT
Fig. 60
The pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied with the unit must be used. If replacements are needed,
contact Customer Care for orders at (888) 936-7872. Do not use the outdoor appliance if the odor of gas is
present. If the unit is LP, screw the regulator into the tank and leak check the hose and regulator connections
with a soap and water solution before operating the outdoor appliance. Turn all knobs to "OFF" then turn on the
gas supply. If LP, confirm there is gas in the tank.
■
Always keep your face and body as far away from the outdoor appliance as possible when lighting.
■
DO NOT leave the outdoor appliance unattended while cooking.
■
Keep a spray bottle of soapy water near the gas supply valve and check the connections before each use.
■
Do not attempt to "LIGHT" the outdoor appliance if the odor of gas is present.
■
Wait 5 minutes before relighting a hot outdoor appliance.

CLEANING GRILL GRATES:
The easiest way to clean the grill grates is immediately after cooking is completed and after turning off the
flame. Wear a barbeque mitt to protect your hand from the heat and steam. Dip a fine stainless steel bristle
barbeque brush in tap water and scrub the hot grates. Dip the brush frequently in the bowl of water. Steam,
created as water contacts the hot grates, assists the cleaning process by softening any food particles. The food
particles will fall onto the ceramic rods and burn or fall into the drip pan. If the grill is allowed to cool before
cleaning, cleaning will be more difficult. After cleaning, apply a thin coat of vegetable oil to protect the grate
from moisture and rust stains.
WARNING!
Do not put grease down any drain or sink. Place the cool grease in a container and throw into the trash.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
If something has spilled into the trays it should be cleaned up as soon as possible to prevent “baked on” food
oil. Grease from the griddle or the outdoor appliance drains through the drain tube (Fig. 64) into the tray and
s
liner below. Do not allow the grease to accumulate in the tray as it can be a fire hazard. Clean the tube and
tray as soon as they are cool. Clean with hot soapy water. For the tube use a soapy bottle brush. Ensure the drip
tray is in place when cleaning the drain tube. A mild abrasive cleaner such as Fantastik®, Simple Green® or
Formula 409® can be used. (Do not use steel wool pad, or a harsh abrasive such as: Comet® or Ajax®.) Rinse and
dry all parts thoroughly.
Drain Tube
Fig. 63
Fig. 64
CERAMIC RODS:
It is not necessary to remove the ceramic rods for cleaning. They burn themselves clean during the next cooking
operation. Periodically the trays holding the ceramic rods need to be turned over, and shaken free of debris for a
thorough cleaning. How often you use the grill and the amount and type of food cooked will determine when it
is necessary to clean the trays. If grease can be seen on the top of the tubes or if you get a lot of flare-up during
cooking, the tubes need to be turned over and heated on “SEAR” for 30 minutes; longer for heavy soil.
STAINLESS STEEL:
The outdoor appliance is made from non-rusting stainless steel. After initial usage, areas of the outdoor
appliance may discolor from the intense heat given off by the burners, this is normal. There are many different
stainless steel cleaners available. Always use the mildest cleaning procedure first, scrubbing in the direction of
the grain. To touch up noticeable scratches in the stainless steel, sand very lightly with wet 100 grit emery paper
in the direction of the grain. Specks of grease can gather on the surfaces of the stainless steel and bake on to
the surface and give the appearance of rust. For removal use an abrasive pad (such as Scotch Brite) in
conjunction with a stainless steel cleaner. Always rub in the direction of the grain.
Note:

Be careful not to upset the air shutters’ original position
(unless readjusting). Lower the rear of the burner into the
cutouts on the support channel at the rear of the burner
box. Make sure it is level and does not rock. Light all of
the burners and check for proper flame characteristics. If adjustments are necessary, refer to page 22. Do this
prior to using the appliance.

SIDE BURNERS
For proper lighting and performance, keep the
burners clean. It is necessary to clean the burners if
they do not light even though the igniter clicks, if
there has been a severe boil over, or when the flame
does not burn blue. Be certain all burner knobs are
in the “OFF” position before attempting to clean the
burners. The burners have been designed for ease of
cleaning. When the grate and burners are cool,
remove the grate. The burner cap and the brass port
ring can easily be lifted off. Wash these parts in hot
soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly. The burner

SIDE BURNER ELECTRODES
Wipe with a water dampened cotton swab. Be careful not to damage
the electrode (see Fig. 68).
GRIDDLE
Griddle will darken when used. This is normal and needed for proper
non-stick cooking and does not require cleaning. However, the griddle
needs to be thoroughly cleaned of grease and food particles while it is
still hot, taking care not to scratch the griddle, using a nonmetal
spatula or brass brush. Once the griddle has cooled to a lukewarm
temperature, rub the surface lightly with vegetable oil (do not use
corn oil, it gets sticky). Thoroughly wipe the griddle with a heavy
coarse cloth or burlap to remove any remaining residue and food
particles. If you have a grease build-up, use one tablespoon of vinegar
in a 1/2 cup of water, clean with a scouring cloth such as a Chore Boy®
Scouring Cloth. For heat discoloration use a stainless steel cleaner for heat stains such as Revere Ware® Stainless
Steel Cleaner. Wash with hot soapy water, rinse and dry. If food soil or residue is cooked onto the griddle, use a
griddle stone (fine grained pumice), or a griddle pan and screen cleaner (these are both available at restaurant
supply store), following the manufacturers’ directions. Wash with hot soapy water, rinse and dry. If hot soapy
water, vinegar, or scouring powder are used to clean the griddle, it must be re-seasoned. Follow the directions
on page 30 to reseason the griddle.

NEVER FLOOD THE HOT GRIDDLE WITH COLD WATER. This could cause the griddle to crack or warp and/or create
hot steam that can burn you.

SINK
In cleaning any stainless steel, always use the soft side of the sponge. If you need to use a cleaner, use a
stainless steel cleaner/spray for stainless steel. Hard water spots can be removed by using a product like Lime-AWay. Always read the directions in applying any cleaner. The sink can be cleaned easily using a degreaser like
Dawn Liquid Soap that will eliminate any grease residue. There are many stainless steel spray cleaners/polishers
