We suggest three ways to clean the burner tubes. Usethe one
easiest for you.
(A) Bend a stiff wire (a light weight coat hanger works well)
into a small hook. Runthe hook through each burner
tube several times.
(B) Use a narrow bottle brush with a flexible handle(do not
use a brass wire brush), run the brush through each
burner tube several times.
(C)Wear eye protection: Use an air hose to force air into
the burner tube and out the burner ports. Check each
port to make sure air comes out each hole.
5. Wire brush entire outer surface of burner to removefood
residue and dirt.
6. Clean any blocked ports with a stiffwire such as an open
paper clip.
7. Check burner for damage, due to normalwear and corrosion
some holes may become enlarged. If any large cracks or
holes are found replace burner.
VERY IMPORTANT: Burner tubes must reengage valve

Indirect Cooking
Poultry and large cuts of meat cook slowly to perfection on the
grill by indirect heat. Placefood over unlit burner(s); the heat
from lit burners circulates gently throughoutthe grill, cooking
meat or poultry without thetouch of a direct flame.
This method greatly reduces flare-ups when cooking extra fatty
cuts because there is no direct flame to ignite the fats and
juices that drip during cooking.
1 Burner Cooking
Cook with direct or indirect heat.
Best for smallermeals or foods.
Consumes less fuel.
Indirect Cooking Instructions
• Always cook with the lid closed.
• Due to weather conditions, cooking times may vary.
During cold and windy conditions the temperature setting
may need to be increased to insure sufficient cooking
temperatures.
• Place food over unlit burner(s)

Food Safety
Food safety is a veryimportant part of enjoying the outdoor
cooking experience. To keep food safe from harmful bacteria,
follow these four basic steps:
Clean: Wash hands, utensils, and surfaces with hot soapy
water before and after handling raw meat and poultry.
Separate: Separate raw meats and poultry from ready-to-eat
foods to avoid cross contamination. Use a clean platter and
utensilswhen removing cooked foods.
Cook: Cook meat and poultry thoroughlyto kill bacteria. Use a
thermometer to ensure proper internal food temperatures.
Chill: Refrigerate prepared foods and leftoverspromptly.
For more information call: USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline
at 1-800-535-4555(In Washington, DC (202)720-3333, 10:00
am-4:00 pm EST).
2 Burner Cooking
Great indirect cookingon tow.
Produces slow, even heating.
Idealfor slow roasting and baking.
How To Tell If Meat Is Grilled Thoroughly

Excess Flow Control and Low Heat
The propane regulatorassembly incorporates an excess flow
device designed to supply the grill with sufficient gas flow
under normalconditions yet control excess gas flow.
Rapid changes inpressure can trigger the excess flow device
providing a lowflame and low temperature. Ifthe tank valve is
turned open to allow gasflow while a burner valve is open, the
surge of pressure will cause the device to activate. The device
will remain closed until the pressure is equalized. This should
occur within 5 seconds.
To ensure this does not cause difficulty in lighting the grill,
follow these instructions:
1. Make sure all burner valves are "OFF".
2. Open the tank valve and wait 5 seconds.
3. Light the burners one at a timefollowing the lighting
instructions.

down. To avoid uncontrolled flare-ups or grease fires, grill
meats with hoodopen. Close hood if meatsare thick or
weather is cold, or if you are using a rotisserie or indirect
cooking.
