Danger:

Lighting Your Grill

Failure to open lid while igniting the barbecue’s burners or not waiting 5 minutes to allow gas to clear if the barbecue does

not light ,may result in an explosion, which could cause serious bodily injury or death.

WARNING

: Never stand with your head directly over the grill when preparing to light the main burners, to prevent possible bodily

injury.

Main Burner

1. Open lid while lighting burners.

WARNING

: Attempting to light the burner with the lid closed may cause an explosion. Make sure there are no obstructions of
airflow to the gas unit. Spiders and insects can nest and clog the burner/venturi tube at the orifice. A clogged burner tube can
lead to a fire beneath the appliance.

2. All valves must be in the “OFF” position.

3. Open cylinder valve.

4. Ignite only the burners you wish to use, using the same method for each:
Push desired burner valve knob and rotate slowly about 1/4 counter-clockwise until a click is heard. The burner should

light. If the burner does not light, return the valve knob to the “OFF” position immediately. Wait five minutes for the gas to
clear and repeat the procedure. After burner is lit, repeat the procedure with any other burner desired.

5. Adjust valve knob(s) to desired cooking temperature.

Flare-ups

“Flare-ups” sometimes occur when food drippings fall onto the hot heat distribution plate or burners and ignite. Some
flaring is normal and desirable, as it helps impart the unique flavors associated with grilled foods. Controlling the
intensity of the flare-ups is necessary, however, in order to avoid burned or unevenly cooked foods and to prevent
the possibility of accidental fire.

WARNING: Always monitor the grill closely when cooking and turn the flame level down (LOW) of OFF, if flare­ups intensify
