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 "burn-in" 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 meats, 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 'Your All Season Grill' cookbook by
Napoleon for more detailed instructions.
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.
INFRARED MAIN BURNER USE: (optional)
1. Operate on high for 5 minutes with the lid closed or until the ceramic burners glow red.
2. Place food on grills, searing in juices approximately 2 minutes per side.
3. Depending upon your taste, continue cooking over infrared burner 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.
PROTECTION OF YOUR INFRA RED BURNERS - The infrared burners of your grill are designed to provide a long
service life. However, there are steps you must take to prevent cracking of their ceramic surfaces, which will cause the
burners to malfunction.
1. Never let water come in direct contact with your ceramic burner.
2. Avoid impact with hard objects.
3. In order for the burners to function properly, hot air must have a way to escape the grill. If the hot air is not allowed to
escape, the burners may become deprived of oxygen, causing them to crack. Do not cover more than 75% of the cooking
surface with solid metal (ie. griddle or large pan).
Damage caused by failure to follow these steps is not covered by your grill warranty.
IMPORTANT
•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.
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.

MAINTENANCE/CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
It is recommended that this gas grill be thoroughly inspected and serviced annually by a
qualified service person.
•Do not use 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 regularly .
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.
COMBUSTION AIR ADJUSTMENT - (This must be done by a qualified gas installer.) The air shutter is factory set and
should not have to be adjusted under normal conditions. However, some extreme field conditions may exist that require
adjustment. When the air shutter is adjusted correctly, the flames will be dark blue with light blue tips, and occasional yellow
tips.
If the burner is getting too little air, the flames will be lazy yellow, and possibly produce soot. If the burner is getting too
much air, the flames will be lifting erratically from the burner and may cause difficulties when lighting.
1. To adjust the air shutter, remove cooking grids and sear plates and leave lid open. The back cover must be removed for
back burner air shutter adjustment.
2. Loosen air-shutter lock screw and open or close air shutter as required. The normal settings are:
3. Light burners and set to high. Visually inspect burner flames. When shutters are set, turn burners off, tighten locking
screw, and replace removed parts. Ensure that the insect screens are installed.
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 stains. Stainless 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 PAN - 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 or sand, 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.
7
MAINTENANCE/CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
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 nonabrasive cleaner. Always wipe in the direction of the grain. Do not use steel wool, as it will scratch the finish. Stainless 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. Spiders and insects 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. Lift 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
WARNING
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. To 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.
