Record Conversion
1. The appliance nameplate is located inside the grill cabinet on
the left-hand cabinet side. With a permanent marker, check
the box next to “Natural gas” and mark through “LP Propane.”
In the last page of the Use and Care Guide, write “Converted to
Natural Gas.” Also record the conversion date and the
technician/company that performed the conversion.
NOTE: Place LP gas parts in plastic parts bag for future use and
keep with pack containing literature.
Adjust High Flame Setting Screw
When converting from LP to Natural gas, you will need to adjust
the high flame setting screw for ideal burner flame height.
1. Remove each control knob for the main burners and side
burner by loosening the setscrew with the Allen key.
2. Use a flat-blade screwdriver to turn the high flame setscrew
counterclockwise approximate 90°.
Burner Flame Characteristics
The flames of the grill burners and side burners (on some models)
should be blue and stable with no excessive noise or lifting (LP
gas flames will have a slightly yellow tip). A yellow flame indicates
not enough air. If flame is noisy or lifts away from the burner, there
is too much air. Some yellow tips on flames when the burner is
set to HI setting are acceptable as long as no carbon or soot
deposits appear. The flames should be approximately 1" (2.5 cm)
high.
1" (2.5 cm)
Check that burners are not blocked by dirt, debris, insect nests,
etc. and clean as necessary. If they are clean, adjust air shutters
as needed.
IMPORTANT: Before adjusting air shutters, let burners cool
completely.
To Adjust:
1. Light grill using information in the “Outdoor Grill Use” section.
2. Observe flame to determine which burners need adjustment
and how the flame is acting.
3. Turn off the valve and wait until grill and burners cool
completely.
4. Remove grill grates and flame tamers.
5. Remove the 2 screws that hold the burner in place. Remove
gas burner from the grill.
A
3. Check that burner operates at the new high flame setting. It
may be necessary to adjust the screw setting slightly more to
get the ideal burner flame height.
Check and Adjust the Burners
The burners are tested and factory-set for most efficient
operation. However, variations in gas supply and other conditions
may make minor adjustments to air shutter or low flame setting
necessary.
It is recommended that a qualified person make burner
adjustments.
NOTE: The rotisserie burner cannot be adjusted.
Checking and adjusting the grill burner flames requires removing
the grates and flame tamers.

Using Your Infrared Sear Burner
Infrared grilling produces intense heat which quickly sears the
meat. Searing locks in flavor and juices while allowing the outer
surface to absorb smoke and food aroma that is produced as
grease and drippings are vaporized by the burner. The result is a
crisp, flavorful outside with a tender, juicy inside.
■ Preheat the infrared sear burner for 5 minutes.
■ Ensure that meats are fully thawed and that all excess fat is
trimmed away prior to grilling.
■ Leave the burner set to On when placing food on the grill to
sear.
■ Use the sear burner to sear meat 1 to 2 minutes on each side,
then move the meat to the main grill cooking surface to finish
grilling to the desired doneness.
Manually Lighting the Infrared Sear Burner
1. Open the infrared sear burner cover. Do not light burners with
the cover on.

Rotisserie Cooking Tips
A
B
WARNING
Food Poisoning Hazard
Do not let food sit for more than one hour before or
after cooking.
Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.
Rotisserie cooking rotates food in front of the rotisserie burner,
creating an intense heat for searing the outside and sealing in
natural juices.
The rotisserie burner reaches cooking temperatures in about
1 minute. It is not necessary to preheat when using the rotisserie.
■ Select tender meat and poultry.
■ Allow at least 1" (2.5 cm) space between rotisserie burner
and the food.
■ To make cleanup easier, place a pan under the food to catch
drippings.
■ Add barbecue sauce or glaze only during the last 10 minutes
of cooking to keep sauce from burning.
Trussing Poultry for the Rotisserie
1. Load the spit rod by sliding one of the forks on the rod, with
the prongs facing inward. Tighten the screw to keep it from
slipping.
2. Push the rod through the center of the bird.
3. Cut 24" (61.0 cm) of butcher’s string and center it under the
bird, breast side up.
4. Wrap each end of the string around the wings; catch each
wing tip. Bring the string tightly together at the top of the
breast and knot. It is not necessary to cut off the extra string.
5. Cut another 20" (50.8 cm) of string and lay it under the back
of the bird. Wrap it around the tail then around the spit rod,
cinching tightly.
6. Cross the legs on top of spit rod; tie string around the
crossed legs.
7. Connect the twine holding the legs, to the string holding the
wings, and knot. Cut off any bits of hanging string.
8. Slide on the second fork pushing the tines into the
drumsticks.
9. Center the food and forks on the rod and tighten the thumb-
screws. The bird should be firmly in place on the rotisserie
spit rod.
ROTISSERIE CHART
Use a portable meat thermometer to check internal doneness of
the food.
Turn off rotisserie burner when meat thermometer reads 5°F/3°C
lower than desired internal temperature. Continue rotating, hood
closed, for 10 minutes before carving.
Timing is affected by weather conditions such as wind and
outside temperature.

TIPS FOR OUTDOOR GRILLING
WARNING
Food Poisoning Hazard
Do not let food sit for more than one hour before or
after cooking.
Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.
Before Grilling
■ Thaw food items before grilling.
■ Preheat grill on high (use all grill burners) 10 minutes. The
hood must be closed during preheating. There is no need to
use the back rotisserie burner for preheating. Preheating
provides the high heat needed to brown and seal the juices.
■ Shorten the preheat time when grilling high-fat cuts of meat
or poultry, such as chicken thighs. This will help reduce
flare-ups.
■ Lightly oil the grill grates or the food when cooking low-fat
cuts of meat, fish or poultry, such as lean hamburger patties,
shrimp or skinless chicken breasts.
■ Using too much oil can cause gray ash to deposit on food.
■ Trim excess fat from meats prior to cooking to reduce
flare-ups.
■ Make vertical cuts at 2" (5 cm) intervals around the fat edge
of meat to avoid curling.
■ Add seasoning or salt only after the cooking is finished.
During Grilling
■ Turn foods only once. Juices are lost when meat is turned
several times.
■ Turn meat just when juices begin to appear on the surface.
■ Avoid puncturing or cutting the meats to test doneness. This
allows juices to escape.
■ It may be necessary to lower the heat setting for foods that
cook a long time or are marinated or basted in a sugary
sauce.
■ If using a high flame, add barbecue sauce only during the last
10 minutes of cooking to avoid burning the sauce.
■ The degree of doneness is influenced by the type of meat, cut
of meat (size, shape and thickness), heat setting selected,
and length of time on the grill.
■ Cooking time will be longer with an open grill cover.
Cooking Methods
Direct Heat
Cooking by direct heat means the food is placed on grill grates
directly above lighted burners. Hood position can be up or down.
If hood is in the up position, total cooking times may be longer.
Direct heat sears the food. Searing is a process that seals natural
juices in food by cooking with intense heat for a short period of
time. While juices stay inside, the outside is browned with a
flavorful grilled coating.
Indirect Heat
For best results, do not select the indirect heat cooking method
when it is windy.
Cooking by indirect heat means the food is placed on the grill
grate above an unheated burner, allowing heat from lighted
burner(s) on either side to cook the food.
If possible, turn on 2 burners. Cook with the hood down. This will
shorten the cooking time.
25
■ Knobs have High, Medium and Low settings for flame
adjustment.
■ Heat settings indicated are approximate.
■ Grilling times are affected by weather conditions.
Grilling Chart
■ When 2 temperatures are listed, for example: Medium to
Medium-Low, start with the first and adjust based on cooking
progress.
■ Cooking times may vary from chart times depending on the
type of fuel, Natural or LP gas.

OVEN USE
Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few
times, or when it is heavily soiled.
Power Failure
Oven Burners
Your oven is equipped with pilotless ignition. With this type of
ignition system, the gas automatically shuts off and the oven will
not operate during a power failure.
A lighted match will not light the oven bake burner. No attempt
should be made to operate the oven during a power failure.
Aluminum Foil
IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the oven bottom
finish, do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil or liner.
■ On those models with bottom vents, do not block or cover
the oven bottom vents.
■ For best cooking results, do not cover entire rack with foil
because air must be able to move freely.
■ To catch spills, place foil on rack below dish. Make sure foil is
at least ¹⁄₂" (1.3 cm) larger than the dish and that it is turned
up at the edges.
Positioning Racks and Bakeware
IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the porcelain
finish, do not place food or bakeware directly on the oven door or
bottom.
RACKS
■ Position racks before turning on the oven.
■ Do not move racks with bakeware on them.
■ Make sure racks are level.
To Replace Oven Racks:
Place rack on the rack support in the oven. Tilt the front edge up
slightly, and slide rack back until it clears the stop position. Lower
front and slide back into the oven.
To Remove Oven Racks:
Pull rack out to the stop position, raise the front edge, then lift
out.

Oven Vent
B
A
A. Oven vent
The oven vent is located on the oven back panel. The oven vent
releases hot air and moisture from the oven, and should not be
blocked or covered. Blocking or covering the oven vent will
cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking and cleaning results.
Do not set plastics, paper or other items that could melt or burn
near the oven vent.
