are securely fastened to the burner and the tank.
If your unit was assembled for you, visually check
the connection between the burner venturi pipe and
orifice. Make sure the burner venturi pipe fits over
the orifice.
WARNING: Failure to inspect this
connection or follow these instructions
could cause a fire or an explosion
which can cause death, serious bodily
injury or damage to property.

(Figure 1)
3. If the burner pipe does not rest flush to the orifice,
please contact 1.800.762.1142 for assistance.
Tank/Gas Line Connection

liquid dishwashing soap with three parts water.
2. Make sure control knobs are (OFF) position.
(Figure 2)
3. Turn LP gas tank valve to "OPEN".
4. Spoon leak check solution at all "X" locations
(Figures 1 and 3)
a. If any bubbles appear turn LP gas tank valve to
"CLOSED", reconnect and re-test.
b. If you continue to see bubbles after several
attempts, turn LP gas tank valve to "CLOSED"
and disconnect LP gas tank and contact
1.800.762.1142 for assistance.
c. If no bubbles appear after one minute turn LP gas
tank valve to "CLOSED", wipe away solution and

Operating Main Burners
First Use
1. Make sure all labels, packaging and protective films
have been removed from the grill.
2. Remove manufacturing oils before cooking on this
grill for the first time by operating the grill for at
least 15 minutes on (HIGH) with the lid closed. This
will "heat clean" the internal parts and dissipate
odors.
Lighting
1. Open lid. Attempting to light the burners with the
lid closed may cause an explosion!
2. Make sure there are no obstructions of airflow to
the burners. Spiders and insects can nest within
and clog the burner / venturi tube at the orifice. A
clogged burner tube can lead to a fire beneath the
appliance.
3. All control knobs must be in the (OFF) position.
(Figure 2)
4. Turn LP gas tank valve to "OPEN".
5. Select burner to light. Push and turn control knob to
(HIGH).
6. Press the (electronic igniter) button and hold for
up to 5 seconds to light burner.
7. If ignition does not occur in 5 seconds, turn burner
control knob (OFF), wait 5 minutes and repeat
lighting procedure.
8. If igniter does not light burner, use a lit match
secured with the lighting rod provided to light
burners manually. Position the lit match near side of
the burner. (Figure 4a and 4b)
Important: Always use the lighting rod provided when lighting burners with a match.
9. After lighting, observe the burner flame, make sure all burner ports are lit and flame height
matches illustration. (Figure 5)
Note: Each burner lights independently - repeat steps 5-9 for the other burner.
Caution: If burner flame goes out during operation, immediately turn
the gas (OFF) and open lid to let the gas clear for about 5 minutes
before re-lighting.

lit burners.
4. Adjust controls to desired flame height.
5. With lid open or closed, cook until desired internal food temperatures are achieved.
6. Turn grill OFF by turning the LP gas tank valve to "CLOSED". Burn off remaining gas in lines
by waiting 15 seconds then turn all burner controls to the (OFF) position. A "poof" sound is
normal as the last of the LP gas is burned.

• Do not use water on a grease fire. This can cause the grease to
splatter and could result in serious burns, bodily harm or other
damage. If a grease fire develops, turn knobs
tank valve "CLOSED".
• Do not leave grill unattended while preheating or burning off
food residue on (HIGH). If grill has not been regularly cleaned, a
grease fire can occur that may damage the product.

accessible. In the event of an oil/grease fire, do not attempt to
extinguish with water. Use type BC dry chemical fire extinguisher or

very high temperatures.
7. Place delicate foods like fish and vegetables in aluminum foil pouches and indirect cook or
place on upper cooking levels (warming rack).
WARNING: Never cover entire cooking area with aluminum foil.
8. To avoid losing natural juices, use long handled tongs or spatulas instead of forks and turn
foods over just once during cooking.
9. When direct cooking adjust your burners to different levels so foods can be prepared to
different internal temperatures in the same time frame.
10. When indirect cooking roasts and larger cuts of meat, place meat onto a roasting rack
