Pre-Grill Checklist

Before FIRST use ensure that:
1. All packaging, and packing materials have been removed from the Grill and burners
2. You have a fuel supply connected.
3. All electrical parts are connected.
4. A qualified gas fitter has performed a leak test on all the fittings that supply the fuel to the grill.
5.If your Grill does not light in 4-5 seconds you may need to purge the line. (refer to purging the line)
6. Before cooking on your gas grill for the first time a burn-off needs to be done. This is a one time only
procedure and gets rid of any odors or foreign matter caused by the manufacturing process.To do this open
the lid and ignite the burners, close the lid and operate on "MAX" for 5-10 minutes.You may then either set
the controls to "OFF" or cook on your grill immediately by turning the control knobs to a lower setting.
WARNING
!
1. Never attempt to light a burner if you smell gas.
2. Always keep the lid open when lighting your grill.
3. Releasing fuel into a closed grill before lighting will increase the risk of explosion,
property damage, personal injury or death.
4. Keep your face and body as far from the grill as possible when lighting. Any time a
burner doesn't light within 5 seconds, turn off the control, wait 5 minutes for gas to
dissipate, and repeat the lighting procedure.
5. NEVER LEAVE THE GRILL UNATTENDED WHILE COOKING.
Before Each Use:
Aways make sure that:
1. You do not smell gas before you light the grill. If you do smell gas, shut everything off and have a qualified
fitter check for leaks.
2. The cooking area is free and clear of any combustibles, that might ignite.

page 28)

Once a Season
At the start of each new grilling season remove the grilling racks and check the burners, venturis, orifices
and valves for obstructions.

and personal injury.
Also, check all hoses and fittings for damage, abrasion, wear and tear.
