Safe Locations For Use Of This Outdoor Grill
DANGER
Never use this outdoor grill inside any building, garage, shed or breezeway, or inside any boat, trailer or recreational vehicle to prevent a possible fire and to prevent the possibility of carbon monoxide poisoning or asphyxiation.
WARNINGS
Do not use this appliance under overhead combustible surface or covered area (e.g., awnings, umbrellas, porches or gazeboes).
Always confirm that this grill is not positioned under the overhang of a house, a garage or other structure before lighting it. An overhang will serve to deflect flare-ups and radiated heat into the structure itself, which could result in a fire.
Always confirm that this grill is positioned more than 24 inches (61 cm) away from any combustible materials or surface before lighting it, and that no gasoline or other volatile substances are stored in the vicinity of this grill. (See diagram to right). The temperature of a grease fire or of the radiated heat might otherwise be sufficient to ignite nearby combustible or volatile substances. Always locate this grill where there will be ample combustion and ventilation air, but never position it in the direct path of a strong wind.
Never allow the grill to operate while unattended to prevent uncontrolled grease fires from erupting.
Never attempt to move this grill while it is in operation or while it is still hot to prevent possible personal injury. Never store or use gasoline or other flammable or volatile substances in the vicinity of this grill or in the vicinity of any other heat-generating appliance because of the danger of starting a fire. Always confirm that the installation of this grill conforms with the requirements of all local codes or, in the absence of applicable local codes, with either the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223. NFPA 54 or CAN/CGA-B149.2.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Operation Instructions for rotisserie use on a grill equipped with rotisserie burners*: IMPORTANT: If your grill is equipped with a rotisserie burner, only that burner should be used for cooking when the rotisserie is
mounted and in operation. The main burners on the grill must be turned to the off position when the rotisserie burner is in use.
IMPORTANT: Do not use the rotisserie burner and the main burner at the same time while rotisserie is in use. Do not use side burners
when the rotisserie is in use to prevent burns.
1. Slide one of the meat prongs onto the rod (prongs toward the food). Center the food on the rod, followed by the other meat prongs. Then push the meat forks firmly together. Tighten the thumbscrews. It may also be necessary to wrap food with butcher’s string, (never use nylon or plastic string) to secure loose portions.
2. Once the food is secure, insert the pointed end of the rotisserie rod into the motor assembly and rest the other end on the support on the right-hand side of the grill.
3. Check for clearance with the cooking grates. The grates can be removed if additional clearance is required. IMPORTANT: If grates are removed, make sure food is not touching the burner(s).
4. Place a shallow drip pan underneath the food to catch drippings and make for easier cleanup.
5. Plug the unit into an electrical outlet. Turn the power switch to the “ON” position to start the rotisserie motor. To begin, turn burners onto the lowest setting.
6. Check for constant speed of the rotisserie rod. If the rod does not turn at a constant speed, reposition the food on the forks and adjust the weight so it is balanced on the rod. An unbalanced rotisserie rod will damage the motor.
7. Check food frequently and adjust burner temperature based on observations. This will require some experimentation as each grill has different heating and cooking characteristics.
Operation Instructions for rotisserie use without a rotisserie burner: NOTE: Do not attempt to use rotisserie on a two (2) burner grill because of insufficient heat from a single burner and difficulty in
balancing the rotisserie rod.
Follow steps as outlined above except do not use the main burners directly below the food on the rotisserie rod. Using these burners will burn the food and may cause dangerous flare ups.
Operation Instructions for Indirect Cooking:
Indirect cooking can be used for many different kinds of foods, especially when the food may contain a lot of fat or have an oil-based marinade that may cause flare ups. Delicate foods that cannot withstand direct heat are also good choices, particularly vegetables. Do not attempt to use indirect cooking methods on a grill with fewer than 2 burners.
1. Place food on the cooking grate or in a wire basket on the grill. The food can either be placed in the center on the grates (using the burners on either side) or the food can be placed on one side of the grill and the burner on the opposite side would be used.
2. Check the food frequently and adjust the temperature based on observations. This will require some experimentation as each grill has different heating and cooking characteristics.
ROTISSERIE TROUBLESHOOTING If the rod is not rotating at a constant speed, reposition the meat on the forks and rod to adjust the weight so that it is balanced. You
may also balance the rod by adjusting the counterweight.

Care and Maintenance
IMPORTANT
Always allow to completely cool off before covering your grill to prevent corrosion from condensation.
Caution: All cleaning and maintenance should be done when the grill is cool, with the fuel supply turned off at the control dial
and the propane cylinder disconnected. DO NOT finish.
Cleaning
Burning off the grill after every use (approx. 15 minutes) will keep excessive food residue from building up.
Recommended cleaning
Mild dishwashing liquid detergent Nylon cleaning pad Paper clip Compressed air DO NOT use cleaners that contain acid, mineral spirits or xylene.
Outside surfaces
Use a mild dishwashing detergent and hot water solution to clean. Rinse thoroughly with water.
Inside surface
If the inside surface of the grill lid has the appearance of peeling paint, baked on grease has turned to carbon and is flaking off. Clean thoroughly Interior of grill bottom – Remove residue using brush, scraper and/or cleaning pad. Wash with a dishwashing detergent and hot water solution. Rinse with water and let dry. Cooking Grates – The porcelain grates have a glass-like composition that should be handled with care. Use a mild dishwashing detergent or baking soda and hot Heat Plates – Clean residue with wire brush and wash with soapy water. Rinse with water. Grease Cup – Periodically empty the grease cup and clean with a dishwashing detergent and hot water solution.
