near this appliance b) NEVER fill the cylinder beyond 80 perc ent full c) If the information in “a” and “b” is not
followed exactly, a fire or explosion causing
death or serious injury may occur
Leak Testing
GENERAL
Although all gas connections on the grill are leak tested at the factory prior to shipment, 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 following the procedures listed below. If the smell of gas is detected at anytime you should immediately check the entire system for leaks.
BEFORE TESTING
Make sure that all packing material is removed from the grill including tie-down straps.
DO NOT SMOKE WHILE LEAK TESTING. NEVER PERFORM 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 the initial leak test, make sure the L.P. cylinder is 80% full.
TO TEST
1. Make sure the control valves are in the “OFF” position, and turn on the gas supply.
2. Check all connections from the LP gas regulator and supply valve up to and including the connection to the manifold pipe assembly (the pipe that goes to the burners). Soap bubbles will appear where a leak is present.
3. If a leak is present, immediately turn off the gas supply and tighten the leaky fittings.
4. Turn the gas back on and recheck.
5. Should the gas continue to leak from any of the fittings, turn off the gas supply and contact customer service at 1-800-790-1299.
Only those parts recommended by the manufacturer should be used on the grill.
Substitution will void the warranty. Do not use the grill until all connections have been checked and do not leak.
GAS FLOW CHECK
Each grill burner is tested and adjusted at the factory prior to shipment; however, variations in the local gas supply may make it necessary to adjust the burners. The flames of the burners should be visually checked.
Flames should be blue and stable with no yellow tips, excessive noise or lifting. If any of these conditions exist, check to see if the air shutter or burner ports are blocked by dirt, debris, spider webs, etc. If you have any questions regarding flame stability, please call customer service 1-800-790-1299 .
ALWAYS CHECK FOR LEAKS AFTER EVERY L.P. TANK CHANGE
Check all gas supply fittings for leaks before each use. It is handy to keep a spray bottle of soapy water near the shut-off valve of the gas supply line. Spray all the fittings. Bubbles indicate leaks.

Leak Testing continued
CAUTIONS
Place dust cap on cylinder valve outlet when the cylinder is not in use. Only install the type of dust cap on the cylinder valve outlet that is provided with the cylinder valve. Other types of caps or plug s may result in leakage of propane.
The gas must be turned off at the supply cylinder when the unit is not in use. If the appliance is stored indoors the cylinder must be disconne cted and removed from the appliance.
Cylinders must be stored outdoors in a well-ventilated area out of the reach of children.
Your grill is ready to use!

If you equip your grill with a rotisserie kit, note that your firebox is 30 inches wide. Review the rotisserie rod size specifications to ensure it is appropriate for your grill. Longer rotisserie rods may be compatible as well. For a rod length that is appropriate for your grill, the rod may still prohibit the use of the searing side burner. Rotisserie kits may be purchased at www.samsclub.com.
Operating Instructions
GENERAL USE OF THE GRILL AND ROTISSERIE
Each main burner is rated at 12,000 Btu/hr. The main grill burners encompass the entire cooking area and are side ported to minimize blockage from falling grease and debris. The igniter knobs are located on the lower center portion of the valve panel. Each rotary igniter is labeled on the control panel.
USING THE GRILL
Grilling requires high heat for searing and proper browning. Most foods are cooked at the “HIGH” heat setting for the entire cooking time. However, when grilling large pieces of meat or poultry, it may be necessary to turn the heat to the lower setting after the initial browning. This cooks the food through without burning the outside. Foods cooked for a long time or foods basted with a sugary marinade may need the lower heat setting near the end of the cooking time.
NOTE: This grill is designed to grill efficiently without the use of lava rocks or briquettes of any kind. Heat is radiated by the stainless steel flame tamers positioned above each burner.
NOTE: The hot grill sears the food, sealing in the juices. The more thoroughly the grill is preheated, the faster the meat browns and the darker the grill marks.
DO NOT LEAVE THE GRILL UNATTENDED WHILE COOKING.
WARNING: IMPORTANT! USING THE SIDE BURNER
Inspect the gas supply hose prior to turning the gas “ON”. If there is evidence of cuts, wear or abrasion, it must be replaced prior to use. Do not use the side burner if the odor of gas is present.
Grill Lighting Instructions
WARNING: IMPORTANT! BEFORE LIGHTING…
Inspect the gas supply hose prior to turning the gas “ON”. If there is evidence of cuts, wear, or abrasion, it must be replaced prior to use. Do not use the grill if the odor of gas is present. Only the pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied with the unit should be used.
Never substitute regulators and hose assembly for those supplied with the grill. If a replacement is necessary, contact the manufacturer for proper replacement. The replacement must be that specified in the manual.
WARNING: Always keep your face and body as far away from the burner as possible when lighting.
TO LIGHT THE MAIN BURNER
Make sure all knobs are “OFF” then turn on the gas supply from the LP (Liquid Propane) tank. Always keep your face and body as far from the grill as possible when lighting.
Your grill has an exclusive patented built-in ignition. The igniter is built into the valve. To ignite each burner simply push and turn the control knobs to the HI setting, you will hear the valve click as it sends a spark to the pilot flame. If the burner does not light wait 5 minutes for any excess gas to dissipate and then retry.
TO LIGHT THE SEARING SIDE BURNER
To light the searing side burner, remove any cooking utensils from the burner grate. Push and turn the control knob counterclockwise to the “IGNITE/ON” position. If the burner does not light, turn the control knob to “OFF”. If the smell of gas is detected and the igniter is not functioning, immediately turn the control knob “OFF”.

Care and Maintenance
STAINLESS STEEL
There are many different stainless steel cleaners available. Always use the mildest cleaning procedure first, scrubbing 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 a mild abrasive pad in conjunction with a stainless steel cleaner.
GRILL GRATE
The easiest way to clean the grill 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 brass bristle barbeque brush in water and scrub the hot grill. Dip the brush frequently in the bowl of water. Steam, created as water contacts the hot grill, assists the cleaning process by softening any food particles. If the grill is allowed to cool before cleaning, cleaning will be more difficult.
ENSURE THAT THE GAS SUPPLY AND THE KNOBS ARE IN THE “OFF” POSITION. MAKE SURE THE RANGETOP BURNER IS COOL BEFORE REMOVAL.
GRILL BURNERS
Extreme care should be taken when moving a burner as it must be correctly centered on the orifice before any attempt is made to relight the grill. Frequency of cleaning will depend on how often you use the grill.
MAIN GRILL BURNER CLEANING
Ensure the gas supply is off and the knobs are in the “OFF” position. Make sure the grill is cool. Clean the exterior of the burner with a wire brush. Clear stubborn scale with a metal scraper. Clear any clogged ports with a straightened paper clip. Never use a wooden toothpick as it may break off and clog the port. Please note if insects or other obstructions are blocking the flow of gas through the burner, and if so you will need to call our customer service line 1-800-790-1299.
GREASE TRAY CLEANING
The grease tray should be emptied and wiped down periodically and wash with a mild detergent and warm water solution. A small amount of sand may be placed in bottom of grease tray to absorb the grease. Check the grease tray frequently, do not allow excess grease to accumulate and overflow out of the grease tray.
BURNER CLEANING
1. Turn off the gas supply, and make sure all the knobs are in the “OFF” position.
2. Wait for the grill to cool.
3. Clean the exterior of the burner with a wire brush. Use a metal scrapper to stubborn stains.
4. Clear clogged port with a straightened paper clip. Never use a wooden toothpick as it may break off and clog the port.
5. If inserts or other obstructions are blocking the flow of gas through the burner, call customer service at 1-800­790-1299.
Warning: If you wish to replace m ain burner, we strongly recommend that you hire a professionally trained technician to replace it. Please understand that we will not be responsible for any liability, personal injury, or property damage resulting from an improperly assembled burner.
HOW TO REPLACE MAIN BURNER
Step 1. Insert the burner onto the orifice. As shown below,
make sure burner hole aim at orifice .
Step 2. Secure the main burner on the back wall of fire box with 1 Pin and secure it at the front of fire box with 1 screw.
STAINLESS STEEL
There are many different stainless steel cleaners available. Always use the mildest cleaning procedure first, scrubbing in the direction of the grain. Do not use steel wool as it will scratch the surface. To touch up noticeable scratches in the stainless steel, sand very lightly with dry 100 grit emery paper in the direction of the grain.
CAUTION
1. Keep outdoor cooking gas appliance area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids.
2. Do not obstruct the flow of combustible and ventilation air.
3. Keep the ventilation openings of the cylinder enclosure free and clear from debris.
24
Trouble Shooting
SPIDER AND INSECT WARNING
Checking and cleaning burner/ venturi tubes for insects and insect nests. A clogged tube can lead to a fire beneath the grill. Spiders and small insects occasionally spin webs or make nests in the grill burner tubes during transit and warehousing.
These webs can lead to gas flow obstruction which could result in a fire in and around burner tubes. This type of fire is known as “FLASH-BACK” and can cause serious damage to your grill and create an unsafe operating con dition for the user.
Although an obstructed burner tube is not the only cause of “FLASH-BACK”, it is the most common cause. To reduce the chance of “FLASH-BACK”, you must clean the burner tubes before assembling your grill, and at least once a
month in late summer or early fall when spiders are most active. Also perform this burner tube cleaning procedure if your grill has not been used for an extended period of time.
WHEN TO LOOK FOR SPIDERS
You should inspect the burners at least once a year or immediately after any of the following conditions occur:
1. The smell of gas in conjunction with the burner flames appearing yellow.
2. The grill does not reach temperature.
3. The grill heats unevenly.
4. The burners make popping noises.
BEFORE CALLING FOR SERVICE
If the grill does not function properly, use the following check list before contacting your dealer for service. You may save the cost of a service call.
PREHEATING: The grill lid should be in a closed position during the preheat time period. It is necessary to preheat the grill before cooking certain foods, depending on the type of food and the cooking temperature. Food that requi res a high cooking temperature needs a pre-heat period of five minutes; food that requires a lower cooking temperature needs only a period of two to three minutes.
COOKING TEMPERATURES
High setting-Use this setting for fast warm-up, for searing steaks and chops, and grilling. Low setting-Use this setting for all roasting, baking, and when cooking very lean cuts such as fish. These temperatures vary with the outside temperature and the amount of wind. Cooking with in-direct Heat: You can cook poultry and large cuts of meat slowly to perfection on one side of the grill by indirect
heat from the burner on the other side. Heat from the lighted burner circulates gently throughout the grill, cooking the meat or poultry without any direct flame touching it. This method greatly reduces flare-ups when cooking extra fatty cuts, because there is no direct flame to light the fats and juices that drip down during cooking.
CAUTION: If burners go out during operation, close gas supply at source, and turn all gas valves off. Open lid and wait five minutes before attempting to re-light (this allows accumulated gas fumes to clear).
CAUTION: Should a grease fire occur, close gas supply at source, turn off all burners and leave lid closed until fire is out. CAUTION: DO NOT attempt to disconnect any gas fitting while your grill is in operation. As with all appliances, proper care
and maintenance will keep them in top operating condition and prolong their life. Your gas gill is no exce ption.
CAUTION :Side burner lid will get hot if used when lid is closed.

Trouble Shooting continued
PROBLEM SOLUTION
When attempting to light my grill, it will not light immediately.
Make sure you have a spark while you are trying to light the burner (if no spark) Ensure that the wire is connected to the electrode assembly. Clean wire (s) and / or electrode with rubbing alcohol and a clean swab. Wipe with a clean cloth. Check to see if the other burners operate. If so. Check the gas orifice on the malfunctioning burner for an obstruction.
Regulator makes noise. Vent hose on the regulator may be plugge d or regulator may be faulty. Ensure
the vent hole on the regulator is not obstructed. Clear the hole, close the gas control valves. Wait ten minutes and re-start. Check your flames for proper performance. If the flames are not correct, replace regulator.
Full size cover does not fit the grill. Cover may be incorrect for your grill. It may be a tight fit.
Ensure the cover is the correct length for your grill. Measure it left to right. Compare to the grill’s measurement. Compare the location and size of the hood portion of the cover to your grill. Spread the cover and allow it to relax, preferably in warm sunlight or in a warm room. For grill with a side shelf bunch the cover like a sock, put on left to right.
Grill only heats to 200-300 degrees. Check to see if the fuel hose is bent or kinked.
Make sure the grill area is clear of dust. Make sure the burner and orifices are clean. Check for spiders and insects. The regulator has a safety device that restricts the flow of gas in the event of a leak. This safety device can be triggered with out a gas leak. To reset the safety device, turn off all burners and close the LP tank valve. Disconnect the regulator from the LP tank and wait one minute. Reconnect the regulator to the LP tank and slowly open the LP tank valve until the valve is fully open. Light all burners and observe the temperature.
Grill takes a long time to preheat. Normal preheat 500-600 degrees, takes about 10-15 min. Cold weather and
wind may effect your preheat time. If you are using volcanic rock or briquettes they can increase the preheat time and maximum temperature.
Burner flames are not light blue.
Too much or not enough air for the flame. Elevation is the principal cause, however cold weather can affect the mixture. Burner adjustment may be required. Grill is in a windy location.

IMPORTANT
Use only factory authorized parts. The use of any part that is not factory authorized can be dangerous. This will also void your warranty.
Keep this assembly and operating instruction manual for convenient referral, and for replacement parts ordering.
CAUTION
Gas valves are present at the factory (valve assembly will be marked accordingly). If you wish to convert at some later date, be sure to contact your gas supplier or grill dealer before making the conversion.
Different orifices must be installe d when converting from one type of gas to another. You will also need a data plate indicating what type of gas is used by the grill.
Grill Hints
The doneness of meat, whether rare, medium, or well done, is affected to a large degree by the thickness of the cut. Expert chefs say it is impossible to have a rare doneness with a thin cut of meat.
The cooking time is affected by the kind of meat, the size and shape of the cut, the temperature of the meat when cooking begins, and the degree of doneness desired.
When defrosting meats it is recommended that it be done overnight in the refrigerator as opposed to a microwave. This in general yields a juicier cut of meat.
Use a spatula instead of tongs or a fork to turn the meat, as a spatula will not puncture the meat and let the juices run out.
To get the juiciest meats, add seasoning or salt after the cooking is finished on each side and turn the meat only once (juices are lost when the meat is turned several times). Turn the meat just after the juices begin to bubble to the surface.
Trim any excess fat from the meat be fore cooking. To prevent steaks or chops from curling during cooking, slit the fat around the edges at 2-inch intervals.
DO NOT LEAVE THE GRILL UNATTENDED WHILE COOKING.
