PRE-GRILL CHECKLIST

BEFORE YOUR FIRST USE

There are a few must-check safety precautions to consider
before you use your grill. Please be sure that:

•All packing materials and tie-downs have been removed
from the burners. (See INDEX: “Unpacking and Assembly”
for further details.)

•You have fuel connected. (See INDEX: “Gas Require­ments” for further details.)

•You have electrical connected. (See INDEX: “Electric

connected and leak tested? If not, check the connection
before continuing. If yes, please continue.

•Are you prepared to stay with the grill during the entire
cooking process? If not, gather what you need before
starting the lighting process. If yes, please continue.

•Is your cooking area free and clear of any combustibles,
besides your food, that might ignite? If not, clear the area
before starting the lighting process, If yes, please continue.

•Do all control knobs turn freely? If not, call for service, if
yes, please continue.

•Do you know where your grill’s main gas supply shut off
valve is located? If not, locate it before continuing. If yes,

IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Please review these imPortant safety Precautions before you use your grill.

1. NEVER LEAVE THE GRILL UNATTENDED WHILE
COOKING.

2. Ensure all tie-down wires have been removed from the
burners.

3. Always use caution when operating the grill in a windy
area. (See INDEX: “Grilling in Windy Conditions” for
further details.)

4. Avoid wearing loose-fitting garments or long sleeves
while grilling. They could ignite.

5. Never touch the grill surfaces or immediate surround­ing metal surfaces with your bare hands while grilling.

6. Use an insulated glove or mitt when opening and oper­ating the grill.

7. Cooking excessively fatty meats and oils will cause flare
ups. Internal fires or damage caused by them or by the
grill being left unattended while cooking are not cov­ered under the terms and conditions of our warranty.

8. Do not heat unopened food containers as pressure
build-up will cause the container to explode.

12. Never grill without the drip pan in place. Always ensure
that the drip pans are in place to prevent grease from
leaking downward and producing a fire or explosion.

13. Grease is extremely flammable. Let hot grease cool
down before attempting to handle or dispose of it.
The drip tray should be cleaned of grease on a regular
basis.

14. Do not use the grill unless a leak check has been per­formed on all gas connections. (See INDEX: “Leak Test
Procedure” for further details.)

15. Never operate the grill while under the influence of
alcohol or drugs.

16. Do not lean on side shelves and never place a load
weighing more than 25 pounds on a side shelf.

17. If any burner does not light or goes out during opera­tion, turn off all gas control knobs and wait five (5)
minutes before attempting to re-light.

18. Portable L.P. cylinders: Always shut off the main valve
on the L.P. cylinder after each use.

9. Inspect the LP hose before each use. If the hose shows
excessive wear or abrasion, or the hose is cut it must be
replaced with a hose assembly available from Lynx Grills.

10. Never use charcoal or any other solid fuel in the grill.

11. Spiders and insects like to nest in the burners, venturis,
valves and orifices of a grill, disrupting the gas flow.
This very dangerous condition can cause a fire be­hind the control panel, damaging the grill and risking
personal injury. If your grill has been unused for a long
time, inspect and clean the burners, venturis, valves
and orifices. (See INDEX: “Cleaning the Brass Burner”
for further details.)

PRE-HEATING

BASIC GRILLING

FOOD SETTING

Pre-heating your grill every time you use it is extremely
important. Pre-heating allows the briquettes to properly
heat up, providing more even and more consistent cooking
results.

Pre-heat your grill by lighting all main burners and setting
them to the desired cooking temperature.

NOTE: Only heat the grill to the maximum setting when
you plan on cooking at that temperature. Once heated, the
grill will retain heat for long time. Set the temperature for
your desired food items. The temperature controller indica­tor lights will turn off when the grill reaches the temperature
set point.

COOKING ON THE GRIDDLE PLATE

1. Push in the Power/Shutoff button. The BLUE burner
knob lights will show that the grill is energized

2. Turn the knob clockwise to the desired position. The
indicator lights will glow until the grill reaches the tem­perature set point. The indicator lights and burners will
cycle OFF and ON under normal operation to maintain
the temperature setting.

STAINLESS STEEL

CLEANING YOUR LYNX GRILL

Lynx products are known for their attractive appearance.
We achieve this by selecting only the finest grades of stain­less steel and applying exacting workmanship.

In order to maintain this attractive appearance over the life
of the grill it is important to take the following steps:

•After each use wipe down the exterior of the grill to re-

move grease and splatters.

•Be sure to follow the cleaning instructions for keeping the

cooking surface clean and ready for use.

•Use a commercially available Stainless Steel cleaner to

clean and polish the exterior surfaces.

Doing these things on a regular basis minimizes the amount
of effort required.

Part of the appeal of your Lynx Grill is the fine grain finish.
When removing stubborn stains:

•Do not use metallic abrasives and always rub in the direc-

tion of the grain.

WARNING

DO NOT ALLOW EXCESS GREASE OR LIQUIDS
TO ACCUMULATE IN THE DRIP TRAY AS THIS
MAY CREATE A FIRE HAZARD.

NEVER USE GRILL WITHOUT DRIP TRAY PROP­ERLY INSTALLED.

•Some household cleaning products are not suitable for

stainless steel; be sure to read the label before using on
your Lynx Grill.

SPECIAL NOTE FOR LOCATIONS NEAR POOLS AND
COASTAL AREAS:

The 304 stainless steel material used in the construction of
a Lynx Grill is highly rust resistant, however, chlorine in the
air from swimming pools or the salt from sea air may cause
surface rust to appear and even create some pitting if left
on the product.

Here are a few tips to avoid this:

•Regularly wipe down the exterior surfaces with a damp
cloth. (Micro fiber cloths such as Ecloth perform very well).

•Allow the surfaces to dry before installing the cover. Do
not cover a damp grill.

•In extreme environments apply a rust inhibitor which
leaves a microscopic protective layer on the grill. Products
that provide a layer of vapor corrosion inhibitors (VpCI™)
protect the surface very well.

•For seasonal storage use the product referred to above,
ensure the grill is dry and then cover and secure the cover
to minimize the amount of damp air getting to the surfaces.

THE LYNX LIMITED LIFE TIME WARRANTY PROVIDES
PROTECTION AGAINST RUST THROUGH OF PARTS THAT
RENDER THE PRODUCT INOPERATIVE. IT DOES NOT
COVER OCCASIONAL SURFACE RUST OR STAINING DUE
TO ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS.

After your first use certain areas of the grill may discolor
from the intense heat given off by the burners - this is nor­mal and cannot be cleaned off.

For light and heavy food stains there are many different
stainless steel cleaners available.

DRIP TRAY

•Always use the mildest cleaning solution first, scrubbing
in the direction of the grain. Specks of grease may gather
in the grain of the stainless steel and bake on to the sur­face, giving the appearance of rust.

To remove these baked-on foods use a fine to medium grit
non-metallic abrasive pad (Scotch Brite is good) in conjunc­tion with a stainless steel cleaner.

•Solutions used for cleaning concrete and masonry can
be very corrosive and will ‘attack’ stainless steel. En­sure your Lynx products are well protected before you
allow the use of such chemicals near your grill.

The drip trays should be cleaned after each use. After the
grill is completely cool, remove the drip trays by tilting
them forward and up, lifting them out.

They can be wiped down with a paper towel and placed in
a dishwasher for cleaning.

TROUBLESHOOTING YOUR LYNX GRILL

before you call for service

Please check a few things before calling for service:

•Is there fuel supplied to the grill?

•Is the main shut-off valve open?

•Are you using the correct type of fuel? (LP or Natural Gas)

(See INDEX: “Gas Requirements” for further details.)

•Is your propane cylinder empty? Have you recently refilled
the propane cylinder? If so, is the connection tight?

•Have you opened the valve on the propane cylinder?

•Is the grill plugged in to a live electric circuit?

If you’ve checked the above items, review the trouble-
shooting list below before calling Lynx for service.

WARNING

PROPER PLACEMENT OF EACH BURNER IS
CRITICAL. AFTER CLEANING THEY MUST BE
CENTERED ON THE BRASS ORIFICE,
RESTING LEVEL WITHOUT ANY ROCKING.

FAILURE TO MEET THESE CONDITIONS MAY
CAUSE A VERY DANGEROUS CONDITION THAT
CAN CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY AND PROP­ERTY DAMAGE.

POTENTIAL PROBLEMS

GRILL WON’T LIGHT

First, confirm that the grill is getting electricity by turning
on the lights, then:

Check the Igniters

Your Lynx Grill uses an electric ignition system that does
not spark. Instead, the igniters will glow constantly when a
control knob is turned ON.

SMELL OF GAS WHILE COOKING

IF YOU SMELL GAS WHILE THE GRILL IS OPERATING, IM­MEDIATELY TURN OFF ALL BURNERS AND SHUT OFF THE
MAIN FUEL SUPPLY.

•Perform a leak test (See INDEX: “Leak Test” for further
details.)

•Check for blockages (See INDEX: “Clean the Burner”

for further details.)LIGHTS WON’T LIGHT

Check the Burners

If the igniters are working check to see if gas is reaching the
burners by attempting to match light a burner.

•Ensure that all burner controls are set to OFF.

•Lift open the cooking surface.

•Turn the burner knob ON and wait approximately

1 minute for the igniter to glow.

•Check all igniters. If they do not glow, proceed with
trouble shooting.

BE CAREFUL! IF THE BURNER FAILS TO IGNITE, WAIT
5 MINUTES BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO IGNITE OTHER
BURNERS! (See INDEX: “Match Lighting” for further details.)

If match lighting doesn’t work, re-check fuel connections
for leaks and ensure the supply is of the correct type and is
of adequate pressure. (See INDEX: “Leak Test” for further
details.)

If the burner will light with a match, then the igniter may not
be functioning correctly. Call for service.

If the burner will not match light, and you know you are
getting gas, wait for any gas to dissipate and remove the
burner and check it for blockages.

CARE & USE/INSTALLATION

|

LOW OR INSUFFICIENT HEAT

POTENTIAL PROBLEMS ...continued

Ensure that you’ve preheated the desired burner(s) for at
least 10—15 minutes

Proper leveling during installation is critical. A grill that is
out of level will cause erratic burner combustion and inef­ficient, uneven heating. A carpenter’s spirit level should be
used to level the grill both-front-to-back, and side-to-side.

If the low heat problem persists:

•Check the gas supply line sizing requirements.

•Check the gas supply line for kinks or damage.

•Check the thermostatic control for proper operation.

REPLACE any damaged supply lines.

•Check the Regulator

Make sure that the regulator & hose assembly is the one
designed for and supplied with your Lynx grill and that it
is correctly set up for the type of fuel you are using. (See
INDEX: “Regulator Conversion” for further details.)

The hose and regulator provided by Lynx must be used if
your grill is set-up for an LP Gas Cylinder.

Bulk LP cylinder users:

Bulk LP cylinder lines must be properly regulated.

Ensure that you are using a 4/11 appliance regulator sup­plied by Lynx and converted to LP gas. Also ensure that you
do not have more than one regulator in line.

Natural Gas units:

•Supply Line

Ensure that the supply line is at least 3/4” inside diameter
or 1” outside diameter.

•Check line pressure

Natural gas inlet pressure should be at least 7” W.C. and
manifold pressure not less than 4” W.C. under full load
(with all burners on.)

•Check burners for blockages.

•Check flame characteristics. (See INDEX: “Flame, Correct

Size”).

•Clean or adjust air shutter (See INDEX: “Air Shutter
Adjustment.”).

Check that there is no physical pressure being applied to
the regulator attached to the back of the grill. The regulator
contains a flexible diaphragm and should not be allowed to
touch the grill body or its surroundings.

•Check for Obstructions

Ensure that the burners and drip tray are clean and free
from obstructions.

LP (Propane) units:

•Is the cylinder almost empty?

Almost-empty cylinders may not have sufficient pressure
to run the burners at high heat.

•Have the line pressure checked by a qualified technician
(See INDEX: “Gas Requirements” for further details.)

•Flow Limiting Device

Improper lighting procedures may have activated the LP
cylinder’s flow control device, reducing the heat output.

To reset the flow control:

•Shut off all burner controls and close the LP cylinder
valve.

LIGHTS WON’T LIGHT

For the Blue LED lights only

•Check Power - Ensure that the grill is connected to a live
AC power source.

•Contact Lynx Customer Care at 888-289-5969.

•Wait 30 seconds and, very slowly, reopen the cylinder

valve.

•Wait a few seconds and relite a burner.

WARNINGS

WARNING

1. Always maintain the required clearances from combustible construction as detailed. The grill is designed for
outdoor use only. Never use in a garage, building, shed, breezeway or other enclosed area. This grill shall not
be used under any overhead combustible construction.

2. Gas grills are not design certified for and are not to be installed in or on recreational vehicles, portable trail­ers, boats or any other moving installation.

3. Keep any electrical supply cord and the fuel supply hose away from any heated surfaces. Electrical cords
should be placed away from walkways to avoid creating a tripping hazard.

4. Do not repair or replace any part of the grill unless specifically recommended in this manual. Other service
should be performed by a qualified technician.

5. All gas lines must have a shut-off that is readily and easily accessible. Be sure the owner knows where the
shut-off is located. If you smell gas, check for gas leaks immediately. Check only with a soap and water solu­tion. Never check for gas leaks with an open flame. (See INDEX: “Leak Testing” for further details.)

WARNING

1. The outdoor cooking gas appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply
piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 0.5 psi (3.5 kPa).

2. The outdoor cooking gas appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its indi­vidual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal
to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).

STATE OF MASSACHUSETTS

1. Massachusetts requires all gas be installed using a plumber or gas fitter carrying the appropriate Massachu­setts license.

2. All permanently-installed natural gas or propane installations require a “T” handle type manual gas valve be
installed in the gas supply line to this appliance.

3. This does not apply to portable propane installations using a 20 pound cylinder.

CARE & USE/INSTALLATION

BEFORE YOU START

Important notes

How Long is Your run?

Keep all gas supply lines as short as possible because gas
lines lose pressure over distance and with each elbow and
tee that is added. This drop in pressure affects grill perfor-
mance. (See INDEX: “Gas Supply Line Runs” for further
details.)

Are You “on-tHe-LeveL”?

Proper leveling during installation is critical. A grill that is
out of level will cause erratic burner combustion and inef-
ficient, uneven heating. A carpenter’s spirit level should be
used to level the grill both front-to-back and side-to-side.

If the floor is uneven or has a decided slope, re-leveling
may be required each time you move a freestanding unit.

WARNING

•Never install this product into a combustible enclosure without an insulated jacket. Doing so could result in fire,

property damage and personal injury.

•Never locate the grill under a roof or overhang, in a building, garage, shed or other such enclosed area.

•Never locate the grill under combustible construction.

•Installation must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with either the National Fuel Gas

Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Natural Gas and propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1, or Propane Storage and
Handling Code, B149.2, in Canada.

IF SHIPMENT ARRIVES DAMAGED

VISIBLE LOSS OR DAMAGE

Be certain any visible damage to the carton is noted on
freight bill or express receipt and signed by the person
making delivery.

FILE CLAIM FOR DAMAGES IMMEDIATELY, regardless of
extent of damage.

CONCEALED LOSS OR DAMAGE

If damage is unnoticed until the grill is unpacked, notify the
transportation company or carrier immediately and file a
“concealed damage” claim with them. This should be done
within (15) days of the date delivery is made to you. Be
sure to hold on to the container for inspection. We cannot
assume responsibility for damage or loss incurred in transit.
(See INDEX: “Obtaining Service from Lynx” for further details.)

Shipping receipts should be signed ”not inspected for con­cealed damage.”

back or other personal injuries.

INTERIOR PACKING

Lynx uses sturdy tie-down cables and straps to ensure
your grill arrives at your home in the same condition that
it left our factory. BE SURE YOU HAVE REMOVED ALL TIE
DOWNS BEFORE USING YOUR GRILL.

•Remove any loose items from the packaging and fire-box

•Make sure you remember to remove the tie-downs on the

burners.

•Ensure the burners are properly seated on the burner
valve orifice and sitting level with the legs in the frame
slots and have no side-to-side movement.

CRATE & CARTON

•IMPORTANT! Do not remove staples around the top of
the carton. These staples hold a wooden pallet in place
inside the carton that protects the unit from damage.
Removing these staples may cause the pallet to fall on
the top of grill.

How to Remove the Carton

•Cut the main strap holding the grill to the pallet.

•Remove the staples at the bottom of the carton.

•Lift off the carton.

•With assistance, remove the grill from the pallet and

place into desired location.

Grill will not
slide directly
off pallet.

Heat Shield Removed,

Orice/Venturi Position

The wheels sit down in the gaps of the shipping crate so
that the grill can sit safely and solidly on the crate during
shipping. The grill cannot be slid directly off of the pallet.

One way to safely move the grill off of the pallet is by lifting
one end of the grill high enough to place a ramp under the
wheel and then lift the
other end while rolling
the grill off of the pallet.

CARE & USE/INSTALLATION

The Lynx Built-In Grill is designed for easy installation into

built-in installations

(3” min)

masonry enclosures.

A minimum of 6” of clearance is needed on the left side of
the grill above the counter top for the motor and skewer.

NOTE: Lynx built-in grills are intended either for installa­tion in a built-in enclosure constructed of non-combustible
materials or for an installation in a built in enclosure con­structed of combustible material when installed with a Lynx
insulating jacket (LIJ).

For non-combustible applications, the grill drops into the
opening shown in the cutout detail drawing (See INDEX:
“Gas Requirements”) and hangs from its counter-top trim.
A deck is not required to support it from the bottom.

When using the insulated jacket in a combustible enclosure,
the jacket must be supported from the bottom by a ledge
on each side or a full deck beneath the jacket.

(See INDEX: “Gas Requirements”) Pay special attention to
the provisions shown for gas line hook-up.

The enclosure should have ventilation holes to prevent gas
build-up in the event of a leak. The deck ledges and coun­ter should be flat and level. (refer to ANSI Z21.58 Standard
for Outdoor Cooking Gas Appliances, Section 1.7 Enclo­sures For Self Contained LP-Gas Supply Systems)

This grill requires that a 120 volt, 60 hertz, 15 amp GFI cer­tified outlet be installed by a qualified electrician.

If the grill is to be placed into a combustible enclosure, an
approved insulated jacket is necessary and is available only
from your Lynx dealer. Lynx insulated jackets have been
designed and tested specifically for your Grill.

REAR HOOD CLEARANCE

A 3 inch clearance is required behind the grill to allow the
front hood to open.

The grill exhausts combustion products and cooking greas­es to the back. Never locate the grill where this exhaust will
be difficult to clean.

CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS

Minimum clearance from the sides and back of the grill to
adjacent combustible construction below the top of unit are
12” from the sides and back.

Dégagement minimal entre les parois latérales et
l’arrière de l’appariel et la construction combustible

WARNING

NEVER CONNECT A GAS LINE DIRECTLY TO THE GRILL. A PRESSURE REGULATOR MUST BE INSTALLED ON
ALL GAS EQUIPMENT. ALL LOCAL CODES REQUIRE IT AND LYNX SUPPLIES THE CORRECT REGULATOR WITH
YOUR GRILL. REMOVING OR FAILING TO INSTALL THE PRESSURE REGULATOR CAN RESULT IN FIRE AND
SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY AND WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.

Gas connections

Keep last two
threads clean

The grill is factory set to use either propane (LP) or natural
gas (NAT). It is critical that the gas you use matches that
which the grill was set up for. You can verify that by check­ing the rating plate.

The Rating plate lists serial numbers, model numbers and gas
type.

The rating plate is located in one or more of the following
places:

•Attached to the underside of the fire box

•On the back of the Care & Use Manual

Ensure that the gas supplied meets with the minimum
pressure requirements. Do not operate the grill on any gas
other than that for which the grill has been set.

Fuel WC Max Inlet WC Min Under

Full Load

Nat Gas 7 in 4 in

LP 14 in 11 in

Water Column Requirements

Both the regulator and the manifold orifices have been
tuned for the type of gas specified on the rating plate.

Canadian installations must conform to CGA-B149.1/.2
natural gas/propane installation code. (Canada)

NATURAL GAS

Lynx recommends that only qualified professionals perform
the required plumbing on this product.

To ensure satisfactory performance, the gas supply line
must be sized to accommodate the total BTU requirements
of all the gas-fired equipment that will be connected to that
line.

In no case should pipe less than 3/4” inside diameter or 1”
outside diameter ever be used to connect this product.

•Calculate the total BTU output of all equipment and
refer to “INDEX: Gas Supply Line Runs” for allowable run
distances for ¾ inch pipe. Failure to meet these minimum
requirements may reduce performance of the grill and
any other appliances running on that supply line.

•Always keep supply line runs as short as possible. (See
INDEX: “BTU Output” for specific model outputs)

•A gas shut-off valve must be installed in an easily acces­sible location by a qualified plumber.

•Keep threading compound off of the first two pipe
threads to avoid having any small pieces of compound
break loose and clog a burner valve or orifice. Do not use
threading compound on any flare fittings.

Converting to a different type of gas requires a conversion
kit, available from Lynx or from your dealer and must be
installed by a qualified technician.

All installation and all installation parts must conform to
local codes with the National Electrical Code, ANSI Z223.1/
NFPA 70 latest edition and the National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 in the U.S. and CGA-B149.1/.2 in
Canada.

For built-in installations, it is recommended that any flexible
pipe used be kept as short as possible. (See INDEX: “Gas
Connections” for typical permanent hook up.)

CARE & USE/INSTALLATION

21

|

For freestanding units using natural gas, Lynx strongly rec-
ommends using a quick disconnect kit.

This Quick Disconnect kit, part #LQD, is available
from your dealer.

LP GAS

Grills set up for LP gas come equipped with an LP hose/
regulator assembly for connection to a standard 20 lb. LP
cylinder. (Type 1). All fittings necessary to attach the assem-
bly to the grill are included.

Permanently plumbed LP connections, such as those in line
with a bulk cylinder, require a 4/11 regulator. (Lynx P/N 30781)

When using the 4/11 regulator you must ensure that it is
set for the proper fuel type. This is done by removing the
regulator cap and gasket and looking at the bottom of the
plunger to see what fuel type is visible. This is the regula-
tor fuel setting. NAT is for natural gas and LP is for propane
gas. The LP setting can be further identified by the large
diameter disk on the bottom of the plunger. To change
from one gas to the other simply push the plunger to the
side to snap it out of the cap, turn the plunger so it reads
the desired gas type on the bottom, and push the plunger
until it snaps back into place in the cap then replace the
cap into the regulator.

Never connect an unregulated gas line to the grill.

LP Cylinder Requirements

The LP cylinder must be constructed and marked in accor-
dance with the specifications for LP gas cylinders of the U.S.
Department of Transportation (DOT) and designed for use
with a Type 1 system only.

Cylinders of free standing grills must be secured using the
provided cylinder retention system to avoid accidental
movement.

When exchanging your
cylinder for a refill, ex-
change only for a Type
1 20lb cylinder with
an over-fill protection
device.

Never use a cylinder with a damaged valve.

A dented or rusty LP cylinder may be hazardous and should
be avoided. If in doubt, have it checked by your LP supplier.

Always check for leaks after every LP cylinder change. (See
INDEX: “Leak Test” for further details.)

Always shut off the LP-gas supply at the cylinder when the
grill is not in use.

Cylinders must be stored outdoors in a well-ventilated area
out of the reach of children. If your grill is stored indoors,
the LP cylinder must be stored outside.

LP Connections

Make sure the LP cylinder valve is fully closed. It is possible
for the valve to be open without releasing gas but, as soon
as you start connecting the regulator, gas will leak from the
connection.

Gas connections ...continued

LP cylinder with type 1 valve connection

WARNING

Do not change the regulator/hose assembly or
use any other assembly than the one supplied
with your Lynx grill.

Do not attempt to use a 5LP-A equipped regu­lator/hose assembly with a standard 510 POL
cylinder/valve assembly.

Do not store a spare LP-gas cylinder under or
near this appliance.

Never fill the cylinder beyond 80 percent full.
If the information above is not followed exactly, a

fire causing death or serious injury may occur.

CARE & USE/INSTALLATION

|

Gas connections ...continued

Insert the regulator inlet into the cylinder valve and turn the
black coupler clockwise until the coupler is hand tight. Do
not over-tighten this connection.

To disconnect the coupler, first make sure the main cylin­der valve is turned off. Grasp the coupler and turn counter
clockwise. The inlet will then disengage.

Always leak-test the connection after refilling or exchanging
LP cylinders. (See INDEX: “Leak Test” for further details.)

GAS LINE PURGING

You should purge the gas line of air before attempting to
light the grill.

•Make sure all grill controls are in the “OFF” position.

•Slowly turn on the main gas supply.

•Turn on the gas valve and confirm that the igniter is glow-

ing. It is furthest from the fuel source and will completely
purge the lines. It will take several seconds for the burner
to light.

CART INSTALLATION

•Shut off the gas supply at the main valve.

•Disconnect all plumbing (if already attached) from the grill

and the gas supply valve.

•Remove all the fittings from the grill manifold.

•Install the side burner onto the cart according to the direc-

tions supplied with the cart mounting kit.

•Connect the gas supply to the grill and the side burner as
shown in the diagrams on this page for your gas type.

•Turn the gas supply on and leak test all connections. (See
INDEX: “Leak Test” for further details.)

•The igniter will stay ON and light the burner when the air
has been removed from the line.

•Wait at least 5 minutes after shutting off the control be­fore attempting to light the burners.

GAS CONVERSION KITS

Gas conversion kits are available from Lynx Grills to allow
the grill to operate on either Nautal gas or LPG. These kits
should be installed by a quaified technician.

The kits come with complete installation instructions. These
instructions should be read completely and fully under­stood before installing the conversion kit.

BUILT-IN INSTALLATION

•Shut off the gas supply at the main valve.

•Disconnect all plumbing (if already attached) from the grill

and the gas supply valve.

•Remove all the fittings from the grill manifold.

•Install the side burner into the counter top cutout.

taking off parts.

•Do not let the cord hang over the edge of a table or touch hot surfaces.

•Do not use an outdoor cooking gas appliance for purposes other than intended.

•Do not operate any outdoor cooking gas appliance with a damaged cord, plug, or after the appliance malfunc-

tions or has been damaged in any manner. Contact the manufacturer for repair.

CONNECTION TO AC

Installation requires an outdoor 120VAC 15A GFI (Ground
Fault Interrupter) electrical outlet adjacent to the grill.

The GFI outlet features an internal breaker that reduces
shock hazard. This type of outlet should be installed by a
qualified electrician either inside the island enclosure for
built-in units, or near the location where a free-standing unit
will be used.

If the electrical system fails to operate, a connection may
have come loose in shipping or the GFI may have tripped,
requiring a reset. See the Troubleshooting section for more
details.

The grill wiring harness is designed to facilitate connection
to other Lynx accessories such as the side burners.

FINAL CHECKS

LEAK TESTING

DANGER!

To prevent fire or explosion hazard, DO NOT
smoke or allow any potential source of ignition
(sparks, electrical arcing, etc) in the area while
performing a leak test. Leak tests should be con­ducted outdoors only. Never conduct a leak test
using fire or flame.

NOTE: The ProSear™ 2 does not have an air shutter.

•The appearance of the ProSear™ 2 burner should be
visually checked. The ceramic tiles should be uniformly
red to orange in appearance. There should be no lifting,
fluttering or lazy blue flames. Some food particles will
show as yellow flames but should burn off.

ONE LAST THING

Finally, before leaving, check all the burners for proper
operation. Make sure the control knobs turn freely and
completely through their full range.

IMPORTANT:

Leak Test Procedure:

•Create a soapy solution of 1 part soap and 3 parts water.

•Confirm that all control knobs are in the off position.

•Turn on the fuel supply. For natural gas, turn the valve

handle 1/4 turn to align with the gas flow.

•For L.P., turn the cylinder valve knob counter clockwise
one full rotation.

•Apply the soap solution generously by paint brush or
squirt bottle on all connections and fittings.

•If bubbles appear to “grow” on any of the connections,
you have a gas leak. IMMEDIATELY turn off the gas supply.

Fixing a Gas Leak:

•Shut off the gas supply

•Turn all grill controls to the “ON” position to purge the grill

of any gas build-up, then turn the controls back “OFF”.

•Wash off the soapy solution with cold water and dry.

•Tighten the loose joint, or replace the faulty part with

manufacturer-recommended replacement parts.

Make sure the owner knows where the main gas supply
shut off valve is located.

Finally, for safety and for proper use & care, you must
leave this manual with the owner. Make sure you advise
them to keep it for future reference.

•DO NOT attempt to repair the L.P. cylinder valve if it is
damaged. The only way to safely resolve a damaged
cylinder is to REPLACE IT.

•Repeat the leak test to ensure that no leaks are present.
