Burner Flame Check
• Remove grates and flametamers. Light burners, rotate knobs
from HI to LOW. You should see a smaller flame in LOW
position than seen on HI. Always check flame prior to each
use. If only low flame is seen refer to "Sudden drop or low
flame" in the Troubleshooting Section.
TurningGrillOff
• Turn all knobs to OFF position. Turn gas OFF at gas source.
Ignitor Check
• Turn gas off at gas source. Push and hold electronic
ignitor button. "Clicks" should be heard and spark seen each
time between collector box or burner and electrode. See
"Troubleshooting" if no click or spark.
Valve Check
• Important: Make sure gas is OFF at gas source before
checking valves. Knobs lock in OFF position. To check
valves, first push in knobs and release, knobs should spring
back. If knobs don't spring back, replace valve assembly
before using grill. Turn knobs to LOW position then turn back
to OFF position. Valves should turn smoothly.
Hose Check
•Before each use, check to see if hoses are cut or worn.
Replace damaged hoses before using grill. Use only valve/
hose/regulator specified by manufacturer.

WARNING
• Putting out grease fires by closing the lid is not
possible. Grills are well ventilated for safety
reasons.
• Do not use water on a grease fire. Personal injury
may result. If a grease fire develops turn knobs and
gas source off.
• Do not leave grill unattended while preheating or
burning off on high. If grill has not been regularly

Cleaning The Burner Assembly
Follow these instructions to clean and/or replace parts of burner
assembly or if you have trouble igniting grill.
1. Turn gas off at control knobs and gas source.
2. Remove cooking grates, flametamers, grease tray and grease
receptacle.
3. Remove cotter pins from beneath each burner "foot" using a
screwdriver or needle nose pliers.
4. Carefully lift each burner up and away from valve openings.
We suggest three ways to clean the burner tubes. Use the one
easiestforyou.
(A) Bend a stiff wire (a light weight coat hanger works well)
into a small hook. Run the hook through each burner tube
and burner several times.
(B) Use a narrow bottle brush with a flexible handle (do not
use a brass wire brush), run the brush through each burner
tube and burner 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.
5. Wire brush entire outer surface of burner to remove food
residue and dirt.
6. Clean any blocked ports with a stiff wire such as an open paper
clip.
7. 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.
VERY IMPORTANT: Burner tubes must reengage valve
openings.
8. Carefully replace burners.
9. Replace cotter pin beneath each burner.
10. Replace grease tray and receptacle, flametamers, and
cooking grates.
GeneralGrillCleaning
• Do not mistake brown or black accumulation of grease and
smoke for paint. Interiors of gas grills are not painted at the
factory (and should never be painted). Apply a strong
solution of detergent and water or use a grill cleaner with
scrub brush to insides of grill lid and bottom. Rinse and allow
to completely air dry. Do not apply a caustic grill/oven
cleaner to painted surfaces.
•Plastic parts: wash with warm soapy water and wipe dry.
▲▲
▲▲
▲Do not use citrisol, abrasive cleaners, degreasers or a
concentrated grill cleaner on plastic parts. Damage to and
failure of parts can result.
• Porcelain surfaces: because of glass-like composition,
most residue can be wiped away with baking soda/water
solution or specially formulated cleaner. Use nonabrasive
scouring powder for stubborn stains.
• Painted surfaces: Wash with mild detergent or nonabrasive
cleaner and warm soapy water, wipe dry with a soft
nonabrasive cloth.
• Stainless steel surfaces: To maintain your grill's high-
quality appearance, wash with mild detergent and warm
soapy water, wipe dry with a soft cloth after each use. Baked-
on grease deposits may require the use of an abrasive plastic
cleaning pad.
StoringYourGrill
• Clean cooking grates
• Store in dry location.
• Cover grill if stored outdoors. Choose from a variety of grill
covers offered by Char-Broil.
• Store grill indoors ONLY if gas source is disconnected.
• When removing grill from storage follow "Cleaning the Burner
Assembly" instructions before starting grill.
Clean burners prior to use after storing, at the
beginning of grilling season or a period of
one month not being used. Spiders and insects like to
build nests in burner tubes (especially during colder
months). These nests can cause fires in burner tubes or
under grill.

Food Safety
• Food 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.
How To Tell If Meat Is Grilled Thoroughly
•Meat and poultry cooked on a grill often browns very fast on
the outside. Use a meat thermometer to be sure food has
reached a safe internal temperature, and cut into food to
check for visual signs of doneness.
•Whole poultry should reach 1800F; breasts, 1700F. Juices
should run clear and flesh should not be pink.
•Hamburgers made of any ground meat or poultry should
reach 1600F, and be brown in the middle with no pink juices.
Beef, veal and lamb steaks, roasts and chops can be cooked
to 1450F. All cuts of pork should reach 1600F.
•NEVER partially grill meat or poultry and finish cooking later.
Cook food completely to destroy harmful bacteria.
•When reheating takeout foods or fully cooked meats like hot
dogs, grill to 1650F, or until steaming hot.
Indirect Cooking
Poultry and large cuts of meat cook slowly to perfection on the
grill by indirect heat. The heat from selected burners circulates
gently throughout the grill, cooking meat or poultry without the
touch of a direct flame. This method greatly reduces flare-ups
when cooking extra fatty cuts because there is no direct flame to
ignite the fats and juices that drip during cooking.
Indirect Cooking Instructions
• Always cook with the lid closed.
• Due to weather conditions, cooking times may vary. During
cold and windy conditions the temperature setting may
need to be increased to insure sufficient cooking
temperatures.
1 Burner Cooking
Cook with direct or indirect heat.
Best for smaller meals or foods.
Consumes less fuel.
2 Burner Cooking
Great indirect cooking on low.
Produces slow, even heating.
Ideal for slow roasting and baking.
