Storing Your Appliance• Clean cooking basket.• Store in dry location.• When LP cylinder is connected to appliance, store outdoors in a well-ventilated space and out of reach of children.• If the regulator is disconnected from the LP cylinder, a hook is provided to hang the regulator from the handle as shown.• Cover appliance if stored outdoors. Choose from a variety of covers offered by the manufacturer.• Store indoors ONLY if LP cylinder is turned off and is disconnected, removed from appliance and stored outdoors.• When removing appliance from storage, follow “Cleaning the Burner Assembly” instructions before starting.
“For Best Results”Place poultry into the appliance with breast up as shown.
Regulator HookFood SafetyFood safety is a very important part of enjoying the outdoor cooking experience. To keep food safe from harmful bacteria, follow these four basic steps:Clean: Wash hands, utensils, and surfaces with hot soapy water before and after handling raw meat and poultry.Separate: Separate raw meats and poultry from ready-to-eat foods to avoid cross contamination. Use a clean platter and utensils when removing cooked foods.Cook: Cook meat and poultry thoroughly to kill bacteria. Use a thermometer to ensure proper internal food temperatures.Chill: Refrigerate prepared foods and leftovers promptly.For more information call: USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline at 1-800-535-4555 In Washington, DC [phone], 10:00 am-4:00 pm EST.How To Tell If Meat Is Cooked Thoroughly• Meat and poultry cooked in the appliance often browns very fast on the outside. Use only thawed meat and a meat thermometer to be sure food has reached a safe internal temperature, and cut into food to check for visual signs of doneness.• We recommend food to be at least 40°F before cooking in your appliance. • Whole poultry should reach 165° F. Juices should run clear and flesh should not be pink. • Beef, veal and lamb steaks, roasts and pork chops can be cooked to 145° F. • NEVER partially cook meat or poultry and finish cooking later. Cook food completely to destroy harmful bacteria.• Use a meat thermometer to ensure proper internal food temperatures.USDA RecommendedInternal Cooking TemperaturesGround MeatBeef, Pork, Veal, Lamb......................................160°FTurkey, Chicken.................................................165°FFresh Beef, Veal, LambMedium Rare.......................................................145°F(let stand 3 minutes before cutting)Medium................................................................160°FWell Done............................................................170°FPoultryChicken & Turkey, whole.....................................165°FPoultry Parts.......................................................165°FDuck & Goose....................................................165°FFresh PorkMedium Rare......................................................145°F(let stand 3 minutes before cutting)Medium..............................................................160°FWell Done..........................................................170°FUSE AND CARE24”• NEVER store a spare LP cylinder under or near the appliance or in an enclosed area.• Never fill a cylinder beyond 80% full.• An over filled or improperly stored cylinder is a hazard due to possible gas release from the safety relief valve. This could cause an intense fire with risk of property damage, serious injury or death.• If you see, smell or hear gas escaping, immediately get away from the LP cylinder/appliance and call your fire department.• Keep LP tank at a minimum distance of 24” (inches) away from appliance at all times.

This is a hazardous practice.•To remove gas from LP cylinder, contact an LP dealer or call a local fire department for assistance. Check the telephone directory under “Gas Companies” for nearest certified LP dealers.3Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine

USE AND CARELP Cylinder Exchange•Many retailers that sell grills offer you the option of replacing your empty LP cylinder through an exchange service. Use only those reputable exchange companies that inspect, precision fill, test and certify their cylinders. Exchange your cylinder only for an OPD safety feature-equipped cylinder as described in the "LP Cylinder" section of this manual.•Always keep new and exchanged LP cylinders in upright position during use, transit or storage.•Leak test new and exchanged LP cylinders BEFORE connecting to grill.•Place safety cap on cylinder valve outlet whenever the cylinder is not in use. Only install the type of safety cap on the cylinder valve outlet that is provided with the cylinder valve. Other types of caps or plugs may result in leakage of propane.LP Cylinder Leak TestFor your safety•Leak test must be repeated each time LP cylinder is exchanged or refilled.•Do not smoke during leak test.•Do not use an open flame to check for gas leaks.•Grill must be leak tested outdoors in a well-ventilated area, away from ignition sources such as gas fired or electrical appliances. During leak test, keep grill away from open flames or sparks.•Use a clean paintbrush and a 50/50 mild soap and water solution. Brush soapy solution onto areas indicated by arrows in figure below.• Do not use household cleaning agents. Damage to gas train components can result.

7. Clean inner burner as recommended below, shown E. We suggest three ways to clean the burner tube. Use the one easiest for you. (A) Bend a stiff wire (a light weight coat hanger works well) into a small hook. Run hook through burner tube several times. (B) Use a narrow bottle brush with a flexible handle (do not use a brass wire brush), run the brush through burner tube several times. (C) Wear eye protection: Use an air hose to force air into the burner tube and out the burner ports. Check each port to make sure air comes out each hole.8. Check burner for damage, due to normal wear and corrosion some holes may become enlarged. If any large cracks or holes are found replace burner.9. Attach electrode to burner.10. Carefully replace control panel assembly .VERY IMPORTANT: Burner tube must re-engage over valve opening. See illustration, shown F.11.

Turn gas OFF at control knob and LP cylinder and disengage regulator from cylinder.2. Remove top cover, cooking basket and cooking pot, shown A. This will expose the burner from inside, shown B.3. Wire brush entire outer surface of burner to remove food residue and dirt.4. Clean any blocked ports with a stiff wire such as an open paper clip.5. Disconnect electrode wire underneath appliance, shown C.6. Remove screws and disengage control panel assembly from unit, shown D.6BBurner(exposed)DControl PanelAssemblyASpiders or small insects are know to create “flashback” problems by building nests and laying eggs in the appliance venturi or burner obstructing the flow of gas. The back-up gas can ignite behind the control panel. This flashback can damage your appliance and cause injury. To prevent flashbacks and ensure good performance the burner and venturi tube assembly should be removed and cleaned when ever the appliance has been idle for an extended period of time.If your appliance is getting hard to light or the flame is weak, check and clean the venturi’s and burners.SPIDER ALERT!SPIDER AND WEBSINSIDE BURNER
