Operating Instruction

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.

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.

TO LIGHT THE GRILL BURNER

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.

Screw the regulator (type QCC1) onto the tank. Leak check the hose and regulator connections with a soap and water solution before operating the grill.

Make sure all knobs are “OFF” then turn on the gas supply from the LP tank. Always keep your face and body as far from the grill as possible when lighting.

1.Push and turn any main burner knob to HIGH position. At the same time push electronic ignition button for 3 to 5 seconds to light burner. Adjust knob to desired setting.

2.If the burner does not light after 5 seconds, turn knob to OFF. Turn gas OFF at LP tank and wait 5 minutes for gas to clear. Then turn gas ON at tank and repeat step 1.

NOTE: This grill is designed to grill efficiently without the use of lava rocks or briquettes of any kind. Heat is radiated by the 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.

Grill Lighting Instruction

3. If burner still does not light, see match lighting method.

TO MATCH LIGHT THE GRILL

If the burner will not light after several attempts then the burner can be match lit. Match light extension rod is located on the inside panel of the door.

If you’ve just attempted to light the burner with the igniter, allow 5 minutes for any accumulated gas to dissipate. Keep your face and hands as far away from the grill as possible.

1) Insert a lit match attached to the lighting rod through the cooking grids to the burner .

2) Press the control knob and rotate left to the IGNITE/HIGH setting, continue to press the knob until the burner ignites. Burner should light immediately.

3) If the burner does not light in 4 seconds turn the knob off, wait 5 minutes and try again.

FLAME CHARACTERISTICS

Check for proper burner flame characteristics. Burner flames should be blue and stable with no yellow tips, excessive noise, or lifting. If any of these conditions

exist call our customer service line. If the flame is yellow, it indicates insufficient air. If the flame is noisy and tends to lift away from the burner, it indicates to much air.

Each burner is adjusted prior to shipm ent; however, variations in the local gas supply may take minor adjustments necessary.

Visually check the burner flames prior to each use. The flames should look like this picture. If they do not, refer to the burner maintenance part of this manual.

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 grai n. Spe cks o f 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.

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 BURNER ARE 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 1-866-984-7455.

GREASE TRAY CLEANING: The grease tray should be emptied and wiped down

periodically and washed 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 th e gre a se 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

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 “FLASHBACK” and can cause serious damage to your grill and create an unsafe operating condition for the user.

Although an obstructed burner tube is not the only cause of “FLASH-BACK”, it is the most common cause.

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.

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 exception.

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 requires a high cooking temperature needs a preheat period of five minutes; food that requires a lower cooking temperature needs only a period of two to three minutes.

When attempting to light my grill, it will not light immediately.

Main burner will not light. • Check to see if the main burner igniter wire point toward the wall of

Regulator makes noise. • Vent hose on the regulator may be plugged or regulator

Full size cover does not fit the grill. • Cover may be incorrect for your grill. It may be a tight fit.

• 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.

the main burner and the burner gas ports.

• Check to see if there is a distance about 3-5 mm from the

igniter to the holes.

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.

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 500-600degrees, 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.

Different orifices must be installed 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 b efore 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.
