valve to high.
OPERATING THE GRILL
BURN IN PROCEDURE
When lit for the first time, the gas grill will emit a slight odour. This is a normal temporary condition caused by the "burnin" of internal paints and lubricants used in the manufacturing process and will not occur again. Simply run the main
burners on high for approximately ½ hour with the lid closed.
MAIN BURNER USE:
When searing foods, preheating is recommended by operating all main burners in the high position with the lid closed for
approximately 15 minutes. Food cooked for a short period of time (fish, vegetables) may be grilled with the lid open.
Cooking with the lid closed will ensure higher, more even temperatures that will reduce cooking time and cook meat more
evenly. When cooking very lean meat s, such as chicken breasts, or lean pork, the grids can be oiled before pre-heating
to reduce sticking. Cooking meat with a high degree of fat content, may create flare-ups. Either trim some fat or reduce
temperatures to prevent this. Should a flare-up occur, move food away from flames, reduce heat. Leave the lid open. See
'Y our All Season Grill' cookbook by Napoleon for more detailed instructions.
INFRARED MAIN BURNER USE:
1. Follow the infrared burner ignition procedures and operate on high for 5 minutes with the lid closed or until the ceramic
burners glow red.
2. Place food on grills and cook according to times listed in the Infrared Grilling Chart.
3. Depending upon your taste, continue cooking over infrared burners on high, medium or low , turning food frequently , or
place food away from infrared burners, close lid, and allow oven temperature to slowly finish cooking your food.
Caution: Due to the intense heat the infrared burners provide, food left unattended over burners will burn quickly . Keep
the lid open when cooking with the infrared burners on high. The intense heat ensures adequate searing temperatures
even with the lid open. This also allows observation of the food, so as to prevent burning.
DIRECT COOKING:
Place food to be cooked on the grill directly over the heat. This method is generally used for searing or for foods that do
not require prolonged cooking times - hamburgers, steaks, chicken pieces, vegetables, etc. The food is first seared to trap
in the juices and flavor, and then the temperature is lowered to finish cooking the food to your preference.
INDIRECT COOKING:
With one or more burners operating place food to be cooked on the grill over one of the burners that is not operating. The
heat circulates around the food, cooking slowly and evenly . Cooking in this manner is much the same as cooking in your
oven and is generally used for larger cuts of meats such as roasts, chickens or turkeys, but can also be used for cooking
foods that are prone to flare ups. Cooking in this method with lower temperatures and slower cooking times will result in
tender foods every time you grill.
PROTECTION OF YOUR INFRA RED BURNERS - The infrared burners of your grill are designed to provide a long
service life. However, there are step s you must take to prevent cracking of their ceramic surfaces, which will cause the
burners to malfunction.
• Never let water come in direct contact with your ceramic burner.
• Do not allow hard objects to impact the infra red burner .
• Do not allow cold water (rain, sprinkler, hose, etc.) to come in cont act with hot ceramic burners. A large temperature
differential can cause cracking of the ceramic tile.
Damage caused by failure to follow these steps is not covered by your grill warranty.
SIDE BURNER USE:
The side burner can be used like any range top burner, for gravies, soups etc. The gas grill should be located so that the
side burner is protected from the wind, because the wind will adversely affect it’s performance. DO NOT use side burner
to deep fry foods as cooking with oil can create a dangerous situation. The recommended pan diameter is 200 to 250mm.
REAR BURNER USE:
Remove the warming rack prior to use. Cooking grids should also be removed if they interfere with the rotisserie.
This gas grill is equipped with a5.3 kw rear burner. The rear burner is designed to be used in conjunction with the rotisserie
kit available from your dealer. See the rotisserie kit assembly instructions.
rotisserie motor from the gas grill. Place the spit with meat being cooked across the hangers inside the grill. The meat will
naturally hang with the heavy side down. Tighten the counterbalance arm and weight, so that the arm is facing up. Slide
the counterweight in or out to balance the load, and tighten in place. Re-install the motor and begin cooking. Place a dish
underneath to collect drippings for basting and naturally delicious gravy . Basting liquid may be added as required. T o seal
in juices, first operate rear burner on high until browned, then reduce the heat to thoroughly cook foods. Keep the lid
closed for best results. Your roasts and fowl will brown perfectly on the outside and stay moist and tender on the inside.
For example, a 1.5kg chicken on the rotisserie will be done in approximately 1½ hours on medium to high. See 'Y our all
Season Grill' cookbook by Napoleon for more detailed instructions.

INFRARED HEAT
Most people don’t realize that the heat source that we are most familiar with, namely the sun warms the earth using
mainly infrared energy . Infrared energy is a form of electro-magnetic energy that has a wavelength just greater than the
red end of the visible light spectrum, but less than that of radio waves. This energy was discovered in 1800 by Sir
William Herschel who, dispersed sunlight into its component colours using a prism. He showed that most of the heat
in the beam fell into the spectral region just beyond the red end of the spectrum, where no visible light existed. This is
infrared energy . Most materials readily absorb infrared radiation in a wide range of wavelengths, causing an increase in
temperatures of the materials. This is the same phenomenon that causes us to feel warmth when we are exposed to
sunlight. The infrared rays from the sun travel through the vacuum of space, through the atmosphere and penetrate our
skin. This causes increased molecular activity in the skin, which creates internal friction and generates heat, allowing
us to feel warmth.
Foods cooked over infrared heat sources are heated by the same principle. Charcoal is the traditional way of infrared
cooking that we are all familiar with. The glowing briquettes emit infrared energy to the food being cooked, with very
little drying effect. Any juices or oils that escape from the food drip down onto the charcoal and vaporize into smoke
giving the food its delicious grilled taste. The Napoleon infrared burner cooks in the same way . In each burner , 10000
ports each with its own tiny flame cause the surface of the ceramic to glow red. This glow emits the same type of
infrared heat to the food, without the hassle or mess of charcoal. It also provides a more consistent heated area that is
far easier to regulate than a charcoal fire. For instantaneous searing the burners can be set to high, yet they can also
be turned down for slower cooking. We all know how difficult that is on a charcoal fire. Traditional gas burners heat the
food in a different way . The air surrounding the burner is heated by the combustion process and then rises up to the
food being cooked. This generates lower grill temperatures that are ideal for more delicate cuisine such as seafood or
vegetables. The bottom line is that Napoleon’s infrared burners produce searing heat for juicier , tastier steaks,
hamburgers and other meats. For cooking times and tips refer to the Infrared Grilling Chart.

When selecting meat for grilling, ask for meat
with a marbled fat distribution. The fat acts as a
natural tenderizer while cooking and will keep
the meat moist and juicy.
Preparing hamburgers to order is made easier
by varying the thickness of your patties. To add
an exotic taste to your meat, try adding hickoryflavored woodchips into Napoleon’s woodchip
smoker.
The joint connecting the thigh and the leg from
the skinless side, should be sliced 3/4 of the
way though in order for the meat to lay flatter on
the grill. This will help it to cook faster and more
evenly. To add a trademark taste to your cooking,
try adding mesquite-flavoured woodchips in your
Napoleon woodchip smoker.

MAINTENANCE/CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
It is recommended that this gas grill be thoroughly inspected and serviced annually by a qualified service
person.
Note: Stainless steel tends to oxidize or st ain in the presence of chlorides and sulfides, particularly in coastal areas
and other harsh environments, such as the warm, high humidity atmosphere around pools and hot tubs. These stains
may be perceived as rust, but can be easily removed and prevented. To ensure stain prevention, wash all stainless
steel surfaces every 3-4 weeks with fresh water and stainless steel cleaner or as often as required.
•Do not use a pressure washer to clean any part of the unit.
•Ensure that the burners are turned off prior to cleaning. Avoid unprotected contact with hot surfaces. Clean grill in an area
where cleaning solutions will not harm decks, lawns or patios. Do not use oven cleaner to clean any part of this gas grill.
Do not use a self cleaning oven to clean cooking grids or any other parts of the gas grill. Barbecue sauce and salt can be
corrosive and will cause rapid deterioration of the gas grill components unless cleaned reqularly .
•Turn off the gas at the source and disconnect unit before servicing. Maintenance should only be done when the grill is
cool, to avoid the possibility of burns. A leak test must be performed annually , and whenever any component of the gas
train is replaced.
GRIDS AND WARMING RACK - The grids and warming rack are best cleaned during the pre-heat period with a soft
brass wire brush. Steel wool can be used for stubborn st ains. S tainless grids will discolour permanently from normal
usage, due to the high temperature of the cooking surface.
CLEANING INSIDE THE GAS GRILL - Remove cooking grids. Use a soft brass wire brush to clean loose debris
from casting sides and insides of the lid. Scrape sear plates with a putty knife or scraper, and use a wire brush to
remove ash. Remove sear plates and brush debris off of burners with a brass wire brush. Brush all debris from inside
the gas grill into the removable drip pan. Ensure that the sear plates are placed properly when they are reinstalled
(Check assembly instructions for proper orientation).
DRIP P AN - Slide the drip pan out for easy cleaning. It should be cleaned frequently (every 4-5 uses) to avoid grease
buildup. Grease and excess drippings pass through to the drip pan, located under the gas grill, and accumulate in the
disposable grease tray below the drip pan. Accumulated grease can cause a fire hazard. Do not line the drip pan with
aluminum foil, sand or any other material as it can prevent the grease from flowing properly . The pan should be
scraped out with a putty knife or scraper, and all the debris should be scraped into the disposable grease tray. This
tray should be replaced every two to four weeks, depending on gas grill usage. For supplies, see your Napoleon Gas
Grill dealer.
HOSE - Check for abrasion, melting, cuts and cracks. If any of these conditions exist, do not use gas grill. Have
part replaced by your Napoleon Gas Grill dealer , or qualified gas installer .
CLEANING THE OUTSIDE OF THE GAS GRILL - Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean any painted, porcelain or
stainless steel parts. Porcelain enamel components must be handled with additional care. The baked on enamel
finish is glass like, and will chip if struck. Touch-up enamel is available from your Napoleon Gas Grill dealer . Exterior
grill surfaces should be cleaned while warm to the touch, with warm soapy water. To clean stainless surfaces, use a
stainless steel cleaner or a non-abrasive cleaner . Always wipe in the direction of the grain. Do not use steel wool, as it
will scratch the finish. St ainless steel parts will discolour when heated, usually to a golden or brown colour. This
discolouration is normal and will not affect the performance of the grill.
TUBE BURNER - The burner is made from heavy wall 304 stainless steel, but due to the extreme heat and corrosive
environment, surface corrosion will occur. Use a brass wire brush to remove surface corrosion. Clean any blocked
ports using an opened paper clip. Do not enlarge the burner ports. S piders and insect s are attracted to the smell of
propane and natural gas. The burner is equipped with an insect screen on the air shutter , which will reduce the likelihood of insects building nests inside the burner , but does not entirely eliminate the problem. The nest or web will
cause the burner to burn with a soft yellow or orange flame or cause a fire (flashback) at the air shutter underneath the
control panel. To clean the inside of the burner , it must be removed from the gas grill. Remove the screw located in the
center of each burner. Lif t the back of the burner upwards to remove. Use a flexible venturi tube cleaning brush to
clean out the inside of the burner. Shake any loose debris out of the burner, through the gas inlet. Ensure that the
insect screen is clean, tight, and free of any lint or other debris. Check also that the valve orifices are clean. Do not
enlarge the orifices. Re-install the burner.

CAUTION BEWARE OF SPIDERS
W ARNING
It is very important when re-installing the burner after
cleaning that the valve/orifice enters the burner tube before
lighting your gas grill. If the valve is not inside the burner
tube a fire or explosion could occur.
INFRA RED BURNER - Because of the high intensity of the infrared burner , most drippings and food particles that fall
onto the burner surface are immediately incinerated. However, some debris and residue may remain. T o remove this
residue after cooking, turn the grill on high with lid closed for 5-10 minutes. Never use a brush or pressure washer to
clean the infra red burners.
