Grill Location
When choosing the ideal location for your Broilmaster Premium
Gas Grill, remember this grill is designed for outdoor use ONLY.
Never install or operate your grill in any building, garage, or other
enclosed area.
For your safety, this grill should not be installed or operated under
any combustible materials, such as carports, covered porches,
awnings, or overhangs.
Never install or operate your grill in or on any recreational vehicle
or boat.
CAUTION: The installation and operation of this grill at clear-

air in any way. The ventilation openings on the propane cylinder
enclosure must also remain free and clear of debris.
Portable grills should be level and positioned away from direct wind
prior to each use.
WARNING: Do not install or operate this grill where gaso-
line or other ammable materials are used or stored. Failure
to comply with this warning could result in explosion or re
causing property damage or personal injury.

PROPANE GAS GRILLS

B102188-0-0114 Page 11
Propane Cylinder Safety
Liquid Propane (LP) gas has a long history of safe use when the
safety precautions provided in this manual are followed.
Failure to follow these safety precautions could result in a
re or explosion causing property damage or personal injury.
Propane gas cylinders should always be handled, stored, and
transported with extreme caution in a secured upright position.
Never attempt to use or repair a propane gas cylinder that has been
damaged. Never attempt to use or repair a cylinder with a faulty or
damaged valve outlet. A cylinder that has been dropped, dented,
or otherwise damaged must be replaced.
A propane gas cylinder should never be transported in the pas-
senger area of a vehicle.
Keep cylinders out of direct sunlight and never apply any other
source of direct heat to them.
When relling your cylinder, always insist on a reputable, qualied
gas dealer. Your propane gas cylinder is lled by weight, and should
never exceed eighty percent (80%) of its weight limit. If the cylin-
der is not completely empty, the gas dealer must make necessary
adjustments to ensure it is not overlled. Never use an overlled
Propane gas cylinder.
Cylinder Storage
Your grill must be stored outdoors in a well ventilated area if the
cylinder is attached to it.
Disconnected cylinders must have a threaded valve plug tightly
installed and must not be stored in any building, garage, or other
enclosed area.
Flammable materials (gasoline, grill covers, etc.) must not be stored
in the cylinder enclosure.
Always store Propane cylinders in a secured upright position, out
of the reach of children.
PROPANE GAS GRILLS
Connection Requirements
Caution: Never use Liquid Propane (LP) gas in a grill designed
for Natural gas, or Natural gas in a grill designed for Liquid
Propane gas. Questions regarding different types of gases
should be directed to your local gas supplier.
Installation must conform to local codes or, in the absence of local
codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1. In Canada,
installation shall be in accordance with CAN/CGA-B149.2 Propane
Installation Code, or CAN/CGA-B149.1 Natural Gas Installation
Code, and local codes where applicable. Consult your local gas
supplier or propane gas dealer for code regulations and recom-
mended procedures.
Warning: Broilmaster Premium Gas Grills require Liquid
Propane (LP) cylinders equipped with an Overll Protection
Device (OPD). An overlled or improperly lled Propane cyl-
inder can be dangerous.
Always use the pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied
with your Propane gas grill.
Note: Not all valve and cylinder combinations are compatible.
Check warning tag on valve and cylinder as well as external tting
threads.
All Broilmaster pressure regulators and hose assemblies require
Propane cylinders with a Type 1 connection device as illustrated.
See Figure 1.
Figure 1

B102188-0-0114Page 12
Pressure Regulator and Hose Assembly
The pressure regulator has an outlet pressure of not more than
eleven (11") inches water column. It must be connected to the
Propane gas cylinder’s valve outlet before the grill can be operated.
Caution: Operation of a Propane gas grill without the pres-
sure regulator and hose assembly will cause gas leaks which
could lead to re or explosion, resulting in property damage
or personal injury.
The pressure regulator’s tting must remain clean and free of nicks
and scratches. A dirty, nicked or scratched tting can cause a gas
leak, resulting in an explosion or re. Use only genuine Broilmaster
replacement parts unless otherwise specied by the manufacturer.
Connecting to Propane Gas / Cylinder Retention Means
ATTENTION: Propane gas cylinders that are acceptable for
use with this grill must comply with Cylinder Requirements, Page
10, and Connection Requirements, Page 11.
Position the cylinder in the opening in the bottom of the cart and
secure with the cylinder retaining bracket. See Figure 2.
Figure 2
PROPANE GAS GRILLS
Attach the pressure regulator to the Propane gas cylinder’s valve
using the plastic handwheel. Tighten in a clockwise motion to
achieve a gas tight seal. See Figure 3.
CLOCKWISE
Figure 3
Caution: Do not use a wrench or any other tool to tighten. Use
of a wrench or other tool will damage the plastic handwheel.
To disconnect the Propane gas cylinder, turn OFF the cylinder’s
valve and the grill’s control valve. Remove the regulator by turning
the plastic handwheel counterclockwise.
Caution: Assure hose does not touch the casting or mounting
components.

Checking for Gas Leaks
Check for gas leaks every time you connect your Broilmaster pro-
pane gas grill to a Propane gas cylinder, when a connected cylinder
has not been used recently, or when either a natural or propane grill
is being used for the rst time.
Caution: Do not use an open ame when checking for leaks.
Checking for leaks with an open ame may lead to a re or
explosion, resulting in property damage or personal injury.
To check for gas leaks:
1. Use dish washing liquid and a little water to make a soapy solu-
tion.
2. Turn OFF the knob on the control panel.
3. Turn ON the gas at the supply or cylinder. A hissing sound
indicates a leak. Turn OFF the gas and repair the leak.
4. Apply the soapy water solution to all gas connections.
5. Look for bubbles. Bubbles indicate a leak.
6. If there are bubbles turn OFF the gas and repair the leak.
7. Turn the gas back ON and repeat the above procedures until
all leaks are repaired.
Air Shutter Adjustment
The venturi air shutter(s) are preset at the factory so that after ve
minutes the burner ames are blue with well dened cones. If,
after ve minutes the ame is yellow, or there is a gap between
the burner and the ame, adjust the venturi air shutter as follows:
1. Turn gas OFF and let the burner cool.
2. Loosen shutter set screw
3. Close the air shutter to the minimum opening.
4. Light the burner, wait ve minutes and then carefully open the
air shutter until the ame is blue and well dened.
5. Retighten the set screw.
Heat Indicator Recalibration
The heat indicator can be recalibrated if needed. Remove the heat
indicator from the grill and place the probe end in a pot of boiling
water. Set the heat indicator by turning the nut on the back until it
reads 212 degrees. The indicator is now set.
OPERATION - PROPANE & NATURAL GAS GRILLS
Lighting Instructions
Using the Ignitor
Caution: If a burner fails to light after 5 seconds, turn the
burner OFF for 5 minutes and open grill lid, to allow the gas
to clear, then try again.
1. Turn knob on the grill CLOCKWISE to the OFF position.
2. Turn ON gas at the source.
3. With the grill lid open, push and turn the burner valve knob
COUNTERCLOCKWISE to Hi.
4. Push and hold the ignitor button until the burner lights (approxi-
mately 5 seconds).
5. If a burner does not light, turn OFF all gas and refer to the
Troubleshooting section of this manual.
Using Matches
Caution: If a burner fails to light after 5 seconds, turn the
burner OFF for 5 minutes and open grill lid, to allow the gas
to clear, then try again.
1. Turn knob on the grill CLOCKWISE to the OFF position.
2. Turn ON gas at the source.
3. Open the grill lid.
4. Insert a burning long wooden match through the lighter hole on
either side of the grill. See Figure 25.
5. Turn the burner valve knob COUNTERCLOCKWISE to HI.
6. If a burner does not light, turn OFF all gas and refer to the
Troubleshooting section of this manual.

Before Cooking
Before cooking on a grill for the rst time, burn off any manufacturing
process oil residue.
1. Raise the grill lid.
2. Light grill burner.
3. Burn on HI for ten minutes.
4. Close the lid and burn on HI for an additional ten minutes.
5. The grill is now ready for use.
Preheating
Before cooking on a gas grill, allow the grill to preheat on HI for 15
minutes with the lid closed.
This uses very little fuel and provides better avor.
OPERATION
Electrical Accessories
• If an electrical accessory is used on your grill, the accessory
must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or,
in the absence of local codes, with the National Electric Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70. In Canada, the electrical accessory must be
electrically grounded in accordance with the applicable section
of the current Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1.
• Any electrical accessory should be equipped with a three-
prong (grounding) plug, and plugged into a properly grounded
three-prong receptacle or wall outlet. Do not cut or remove
the grounding prong from the plug.
• If an extension cord is required, use only a three-prong cord and
plug into a properly grounded receptacle as described above.
• Do not expose an electrical accessory to water. Avoid using
any electrical accessory in wet weather as it may present a
shock hazard.
• Keep any electrical cord and fuel supply hose away from all
heated surfaces.

MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the Grill
Caution: To prevent injury, use care when cleaning a hot grill.
Note: Do not use a commercial cleaner on the cooking grid.
Do not brush grids while they are hot. Do not scrape grids.
Grids and Drip Pan
The grids are made of high quality stainless steel and should be
brushed with a brass brush while the grill is still warm.
The drip pan is made of high quality stainless steel as well and can
be cleaned with a scraping tool. The pan must be kept clean of heavy
build-up for the grill to perform properly and to reduce are-ups.
Clean as needed or approximately every 10 uses.
Burn Off
This process is much like that used in self-cleaning ovens and is
most efcient when completed after each use of the grill.
Caution: Do not open the grill during the burn off process.
Opening the grill during the burn off process may cause a
sudden grease re are up that could burn your face and arms.
Wait until the grill has cooled before opening.
1. Turn gas knob to HI. Close lid and allow the grill to burn for ten
minutes, or until no smoke is present. Do not allow the grill to
burn for more than 30 minutes.
2. Turn gas knob and supply to OFF and allow the grill to cool.
Grill Bottom
Once or twice a year remove cooking grids and drip pan to clean
the interior of the grill. Scrape off baked on residue with a putty
knife or brass brush and rinse with water.
Burner Maintenance
Stainless steel burners often turn reddish brown after use. This does
not affect the performance of the grill. When cleaning the interior of
the grill, remove the burners and clean with a brass brush. Wash
with water and a mild detergent.
Drip Pipe and Valve
Drain pipe and valve must be kept clear of grease and food particles
to allow the grease to drain properly. To clear the drain pipe and
valve, run a exible drain brush through both and remove.
Bucket
The bucket can be stored under the grill lid when the grill is not in
use.
Venturi Tubes
The venturi tubes allow air and gas to mix prior to burning, thus
ensuring an efcient ame. Spiders or other small insects may
build webs or nests inside the tubes obstructing air ow. Fire, or
ashback, can occur, in and/or around obstructed venturi tubes and
can cause damage to components beneath the grill or an unsafe
condition. To reduce risk, inspect and clean the Venturi Tubes at
least twice monthly when spiders are active. If the grill has been
unused for an extended period of time inspect the tubes before
using the grill.
Clean venturi tubes as follows:
1. Remove the cooking grids and drip pan.
2. Remove the burner from the grill.
3. Lay the burner face down and remove the four retaining screws
from the venturi tube plate and the burner. See Figure 26.
4. Use a small exible brush to remove any debris for the tube(s).
5. Flush with water.
6. Allow the tube(s) to dry before reinstalling.
7. Reinstall the venturi tubes, igniter and burner bracket to burner.
Figure 26
Exterior
Clean regularly with a solution of mild detergent and hot water.
Touch-up paint is available from your dealer. Broilmaster protec-
tive covers are recommended. Stainless steel components can
be easily cleaned with a spray-on stainless steel cleaner found in
most hardware stores.
