General Safety Instructions
1. For Household Outdoor Use Only – DO NOT use indoors or in any type of enclosed area such as a
garage, shed or breezeway. Keep clear of trees and shrubs. The grills are not intended for
installation in or on recreational vehicles, portable trailers, boats or any other moving installation.
Not for commercial use.
2. The area surrounding your new grill should be kept clean and free from flammable liquids and
other combustible materials such as mops, rags or brooms, as well as solvents, cleaning fluids,
and gasoline.
3. To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury from breathing toxic fumes and from explosion and fire
as a result of leaking gas, use only outdoors in an open area with good ventilation. Do not obstruct
the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
4. Never use the grill in windy conditions. If located in a consistently windy area (oceanfront,
mountaintop, etc.) a wind break will be required. Always adhere to the specified clearances listed.
5. Do not leave the grill unattended while cooking.
6. Do not use natural gas in a unit designed for liquid propane gas or vice versa.
7. Do not use fuel such as charcoal briquettes in a gas grill.
8. Keep children and pets away from hot grill. DO NOT allow children to use or play near the grill.
9. Never attempt to repair or replace any part of the grill yourself unless specifically recommended in
this manual. All other services should be performed by a qualified service technician.
10. Never lean over an open grill. Do not place clothing or other flammable material on or near the grill.
Do not wear loose-fitting clothes or long sleeves while using the grill as some fabrics can be highly
flammable.
11. Have an ABC fire extinguisher accessible. Never attempt to extinguish a grease fire with water or
other liquids.
12. Never use aluminum foil to line the grill racks or the drip trays, this can alter airflow for proper
combustion and also build up heat in the control area causing the knobs and igniter to melt.
13. When using the grill, do not touch the grill rack, burner grate, or immediate surroundings as these
areas become extremely hot and can cause burns. Always use a covered hand when opening the
grill hood and only do so slowly to allow heat and steam to escape.
14. DO NOT allow grease or other hot material dripping from the grill onto the valve, hose or regulator,
turn off gas supply immediately. After the grill has cooled, determine the cause and correct it. After
cleaning the valve, hose and regulator, perform a leak test before continuing use.
15. Do not heat any unopened glass or metal container of food on the grill. Pressure may build up and
cause the container to burst, possibly resulting in serious personal injury or damage to the grill.
16. Keep any electrical supply cords away from water or heated surfaces. Electrical cords should be
placed away from walkways to avoid tripping hazard.

17. Keep gas supply lines as short as possible.
18. Never move the grill when hot.
19. DO NOT use while under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
20. DO NOT store a spare gas cylinder under or near your grill.
21. DO NOT grill without the drip tray in place, hot grease could leak downward and produce a fire or
an explosion. Drip tray should be pushed all the way to the rack located just under the grill.
22. Grease is extremely flammable. Let hot grease cool down before attempting to handle or dispose
of it. The drip tray should be cleaned and free of grease on a regular basis.
23. In the event that a burner goes out, turn burner knobs to the full OFF position, fully open the grill
hood and let it air out. Do not attempt to use the grill until the gas has had time to dissipate.
24. Do not use grill until leak check has been made.
25. Turn off the cylinder valve when your grill is not in use.
26. Ensure the control knobs are in the “OFF” position when not in use.
27. Use only a Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) protected circuit with this outdoor cooking gas appliance.
CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 - WARNING: The burning of gas cooking fuels generates some
byproducts which are on the list of substances which are known by the State of California to cause
cancer or reproductive harm. California law requires businesses to warn customers of potential
exposure to such substances. To minimize exposure to these substances, always operate this unit
according to the Use and Care Manual, ensuring you provide good ventilation when cooking with gas.

Check your local building codes for the proper method of installation. In the absence of local codes, this
unit should be installed in accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code No. Z223.1-1998 USA or
CAN/CGA-B149.1/.2 Natural Gas/Propane Code (Canada) latest edition or the National Electrical
Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70 or the Canadian Electrical Code CSA C22.1, 1990 or latest version.
- Before installing built-in grills in enclosures, copy all product information such as model number,
serial number and type of grill (e.g. natural gas or LP) and store information in a safe place.
- If the grill is installed by a professional installer or technician, be sure that he shows you where
your gas supply shut-off is located. All gas lines must have a shut-off that is readily and easily
accessible. If you smell gas, check for gas leaks immediately. Check only with a soap and water
solution. Never check for gas leaks with an open flame.
Notice: We strongly recommend professional installation and hookup of the Gas BBQ grill. These
instructions will provide you with the measurements necessary for you or your builder to construct a
masonry structure to house your outdoor gas grill.
IMPORTANT: Gas fittings, regulator, and installer supplied shut-off valves must be easily accessible.
LOCATION OF YOUR GRILL:
Locate the grill only in a well ventilated area. Never locate the grill in a building, garage, breezeway,
shed or other such enclosed areas without an approved ventilation system. During heavy use, the grill
will produce a lot of smoke. Ensure there is adequate area for it to dissipate.
Ventilation Requirements for Proper Operation of your Coyote Grill
•Ventilation for a gas grill is absolutely mandatory to ensure that your grill performs as intended and
to ensure the safety of you and your family. The vents that are required to honor a Coyote warranty,
not only ensure that any heat that is trapped inside your grill from environmental factors (such as
wind) escape but they also allow any gas that has leaked from a tank or connection, to escape
before a buildup of such gas can occur and possibly ignite.
•A simple way to think of what is occurring inside your grill is that when your burners are on, they are
emitting a flame that creates the heat to cook your food. This heat must exhaust from the grill,
otherwise you would eventually have a unit that would not only build up immense heat but also
immense pressure. This could cause severe damage to not only the grill but any operators or
property near by. With that said, if you have wind coming into the back of your unit, the problem will
not be with the wind hitting your flames and causing them to push the flame downward. The problem
actually lies with the wind acting as a block for the exhaust, which is mainly out the back of the hood
(above the rear panel but below the top of the hood). This blockage of exhaust is what starts the
problems.
•If the island is ventilated properly (with a minimum of 2 vents for cross ventilation and at least 20 sq
in on each vent) then any heat that is trapped inside due to wind should be able to dissipate out of
the island vents. However, if the island is not ventilated properly and the wind is coming from the
back, then the heat will try to escape through the easiest exit, which will most likely be through the
bottom of the grill and front control panel. This can cause the control panel and knobs to get hot to
the touch and possibly even burn your fingers, not to mention that it can melt all rubber gaskets on
the valves and damage the ignition system to where it will need full replacement.
Locating the Grill

•Ventilation and the variable of your most common wind direction must always be considered when
planning your outdoor cooking island. Just the same as you would plan the layout and measure your
indoor kitchen, you must also do the same for the outdoors but you can not forget about Mother
Nature and the effects she can have on your outdoor cooking equipment.
oCoyote Wind Guards: If you do run into a situation where you will have wind coming into
the back of the unit, Coyote does sell "Wind Guards" that help keep your grilll from
overheating due to no exhaust occuring out the back of the grill. Our Wind Guards should
never be considered as a guaranteed solution to this problem. They are only intended to
help the wind divert up and over the top of the grill. If the wind is strong, then you can still
have problems with the heat being trapped in the hood. Our Wind Guards can be purchased
through any of our authorized dealers.
Clearance :
•TO NON-COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION: For non-combustible material, Coyote grills can
be placed directly on, or adjacent to the non-combustible material. The hood on a Coyote grill
pivots mainly on the body. If you have a wall or partition behind the unit that would block
ventilation, then a minimum of 7" clearance from the back of the grill to the wall is needed for
the purpose of ventilation. If you do not have a wall or partition blocking the ventilation of the
unit, then you only need an extra 2" behind the unit for the hood to open fully. If you wish to use
the rotisserie option, you will want to make sure that you leave adequate space (at least 6") on
each side of the grill so that the motor and rotisserie spit handle will have room on the counter,
as these extend past the overall dimensions of the grill body.
•CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION: For combustible construction, you must
have at least 24" clearance to any combustible material (in any direction) for a Coyote Warranty
to be upheld and for the safety of the homeowner. You can NOT locate the grill under any
combustible material without an approved ventilation system directly located above the unit.
• INSULATED JACKETS AND COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION: If you must use combustible
material to build your grill island AND you are going to be within 24" of the grill with this
combustible material, then you must use the appropriate Coyote Insulated Jacket. The
insulated jacket will act as a barrier to protect your grill island from the heat and fire of your
Coyote grill. If an insulated jacket is not used in a combustible material island, the warranty on
the Coyote grill will be voided immediately and safety can not be ensured.
For Built-in Installations
A built-in grill is designed for easy installation into masonry enclosures. For non-combustible
applications, the grill drops into the opening (as shown in cut-out detail drawing - Fig. A) and hangs
from the grill body itself. A bottom deck is not required to support the grill from the bottom. It is also
required that:
•Two ventilation holes, of at least 20 sq inches in size, must be present to help release any gas
from a leak.
As Propane is heavier than air, locate your vents at the tank valve height or lower
•The counter should be flat and level in reference to the floor.
LP TANK STORAGE MUST BE ISOLATED IN A SEPARATE COMPARTMENT FROM THAT OF THE
GRILL AND IT MUST BE VENTED AS WELL. (RECOMMEND BOTTOM VENTS FOR LP)

specifications of the US Department of Transportation for propane gas cylinders.
Always keep cylinder securely fastened in an upright position. Never connect an unregulated propane
gas cylinder to the grill.
Do not subject propane cylinders to excessive heat.
CAUTION: Never store a LP gas cylinder inside a building or in the vicinity of any gas-burning
appliance.
Cylinder Specifications
- Any L.P. gas supply cylinder used with this grill must be approximately 12 inches diameter and 18
inches high. The maximum fuel capacity is 80% and is approximately 20 pounds of propane.
WARNING: Never attach an unregulated gas line to the appliance. Connection to an
unregulated gas line can cause excessive heat or fire.
NOTE: Always have a qualified service technician perform difficult conversions
or modifications.
LP Gas Hook-up
Gas Requirements

- The L.P. cylinder must have a shut-off valve (see picture) terminating
in a Type 1 L.P.
- A Type 1 compatible cylinder with a Type 1 cylinder valve has a
back-check valve which does not permit gas flow, until a positive seal
has been obtained.
- The cylinder must be arranged for vapor withdrawal. It must also
include a collar to protect the cylinder valve. A safety relief device
having direct communication with the vapor space of cylinder must be
provided. This will expel high pressure gas if the cylinder is overfilled
or overheated which could result in fire or explosion.
- All L.P. gas cylinders used with this appliance shall be constructed and marked in accordance with
the specifications for L.P. gas cylinders of the U. S. Department of Transportation (DOT) or the
National Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA-B339, Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for Transportation
of Dangerous Goods; and Commission, as applicable; and shall be provided with a listed overfilling
prevention device.
- Read labels on the L.P. Gas Supply Cylinder.
- New cylinders are always shipped empty for safety.
- Allow only qualified L.P. gas dealers to fill or repair your L.P. gas supply cylinder.
- Inform the gas dealer if it is a new or used cylinder to be filled.
- After filling, have the gas dealer check for leaks and to see that the relief valve remains free to
function.
Hose and Regulator (Comes standard with the grill)
The Type 1 connection system has the following features:
- The system will not allow gas to flow until a positive connection
has been made.
NOTE: The cylinder control valve must be turned off before
any connection is made or removed.
- The system has a thermal element that will shut off the flow of gas
in the event of a fire.
- The system has a flow limiting device which, when activated, will
limit the flow of gas to 10 cubic feet per hour.
- NEVER use grill without leak testing this connection.
LP (Propane) Gas Supply Connection
1. The tank valve should be in the “OFF” position. If not, turn the knob
clockwise until it stops.
2. Make sure all burner valves are in the “OFF” position.
3. Always connect the gas supply regulator as follows:
Insert the regulator inlet into the tank valve and turn the coupling nut
clockwise until the coupler tightens up (see picture). Do not over
tighten the coupler. Turn the main tank valve on and turn the burner
control valves on the unit to the “HIGH” position for about 20 seconds
to allow the air in the system to purge before attempting to light the burners.

Pre-Operation Leak Testing
DANGER
3. Do not insert any tool into the valve outlet or safety relief valve. You may damage the valve and
cause a leak. Leaking propane may result in explosion, fire, severe personal injury, or death.
3. If a leak is detected at any time or you cannot stop a gas leak, immediately close pipeline valve and
call LP gas supplier or you fire department!
3. Check all gas supply fittings before each use and each time the gas supply cylinder is connected to
the regulator. Have a qualified service technician leak test the grill any time a part of the gas system
is replaced.
WARNING
Never attempt to attach this grill to the self-contained LP gas system. Do not use grill until leak testing.
Before Testing
DO NOT smoke while leak testing. Extinguish all open flames. Never leak test with an open flame. Mix
a solution of equal parts mild detergent or liquid soap and water.
Leak Testing Valves, Hose and Regulator
1. Turn all grill control knobs to OFF.
2. Be sure hose is tightly connected to LP tank.
3. Completely open LP tank valve by turning cylinder
valve knob counterclockwise (right to left). If you
hear a rushing sound, turn gas off immediately.
There is a major leak at the connection. Correct
before proceeding by calling franchiser for
replacement parts.
4. Brush soapy solution onto areas where bubbles
are shown in LP tank (see picture).
5. If “growing” bubbles appear, there is a leak. Close
LP tank valve immediately and retighten
connections. If leads cannot be stopped do not try to repair. Call franchiser for replacement.
6. Always close LP tank valve after performing leak test by turning cylinder valve knob clockwise.
NOTE: When leak testing this appliance, make sure to test and tighten all loose connections, including
the side burner. A slight leak in the system can result in a low flame, or a hazardous condition.
LP Gas Supply Cylinder Disconnection
1. Turn the burner valves off.
2. Turn the tank valve off. (Turn clockwise to stop).
3. Detach the regulator assembly from the tank valve by turning the quick coupling nut
counterclockwise.

10
LP Tank Removal, Transport and Storage
- Turn OFF all control knobs and LP tank valve. Turn coupling nut counterclockwise by hand only -
do not use tools to disconnect. Lift LP tank wire upward off of LP tank collar, then lift LP tank up
and off of support bracket. Install safety cap onto LP tank valve. Always use cap and strap
supplied with valve. Failure to use safety cap as directed may result in serious personal injury
and/or property damage.
- A disconnected LP tank in storage or being transported must
have a safety cap installed
(as shown). Do not store an LP tank in enclosed spaces such
as a carport, garage, porch, covered patio or other building.
Never leave a LP tank inside a vehicle which may become
overheated by the sun.
- Do not store LP tank in an area where children play.
LP Tank Filling
- Use only licensed and experienced dealers.
- LP dealer must purged tank before filling.
- Dealer should NEVER fill LP tank more than 80% of LP tank volume. Volume of propane in tank
will vary by temperature.
- A frosty regulator indicates gas overfill. Immediately close LP tank valve and call local LP gas
dealer for assistance.
- Do not release liquid propane (LP) gas into the atmosphere. This is a hazardous practice.
- To remove gas from LP tank, contact an LP dealer or call a local fire department for assistance.
Check the telephone directory under “Gas companies” for nearest certified LP dealers.
LP Tank Exchange
- Exchange your Type 1 cylinder with OPD safety feature-equipped ONLY.
- Always keep new and exchanged LP tanks in upright position during use, transit or storage. Leak
test new and exchanged LP tanks BEFORE connecting to grill.
Large Capacity Propane Tanks and Homes:
•LP (Liquid Propane) Coyote Grills can be installed into propane fueled houses. Meaning that if
your entire house is plumbed for propane and you have an exterior connection for such use,
then a standard LP grill from Coyote will meet your needs, regardless of the size. Any appliance
can be installed if installed properly! That is the Coyote way!
oCoyote does not supply any gas fittings or lines, other than the regulator needed within
the grill box
oAll Coyote LP Grills come with a 20lb tank regulator. This regulator can not be used or
modified to work on any other setup.
If you are running off of a large capacity tank (more than 20lbs), then an “in-line”
LP regulator is needed, Coyote Customer Service must be contacted to assist
with this situation.
oAs counties vary from state to state, it is upon the owner/installer to ensure that all
county, state and federal codes are followed for any gas installation.

11
-
Always check the rating plate to make sure the gas supply you are hooking up to is the gas type the grill
is manufactured for.
This natural gas grill is designed to operate on natural gas ONLY, at a pressure regulated at 4”
(101.6mm) water column (W.C.) when equipped with the correct natural gas orifices on the valves and
a natural gas regulator on the supply line regulated at the residential meter.
IMPORTANT: Never connect the grill to an unregulated gas supply.
Natural gas connections must be performed by a licensed contractor or local gas company
representative.
Natural Gas Hose and Regulator
IMPORTANT: NEVER use grill without leak testing this connection.
Natural gas regulator model: GR120
Gas pressure: 4” (101.6mm)
Maximum rate working pressure: 1/2 Psig
Natural Gas Supply and Connection
1. Make sure all burner valves are in the “OFF” position
2. All NG units need to have a regulator and shut-off valve on the supply line.
3. All Pipe threads need to have proper, gas rated, outdoor rated thread sealant. Flare ends do not
need or utilize pipe sealant.
4. Your NG Coyote grill comes with a ½” regulator.
a) You need to seal the regulator to the hose using your pipe sealant.
b) Then attach the flare end to your manifold line, with no pipe sealant.
c) Next, attach your next connection hose (not included) to the other side of the NG regulator (it
is also ½” MIP)
i. We suggest using ½” stainless steel corrugated hoses for all NG Grills
ii. Make sure that you purchase a hose of adequate length and capacity for the intended
application.
d) Connect the other end of this hose, to your shut off valve
i. Depending on your choice of hose and shut-off, the nipple going into the shut-off valve
may vary.
e) Test all connections for leaks with a soap and water solution.
High Elevation Installation and Use
Coyote Grills are designed to operate most efficiently at 0-2000 feet above sea level. From 2000-4000 feet
above sea level you will not notice any substantial decrease in your heat, although more gas is combusting
within the burners due to less oxygen. Above 4000 feet, you may experience a little longer cooking time on
your grill than you would experience at sea level. But again, this is just due to the air/fuel mixture taking
place within the burners. If any problems or concerns exist about your location or elevation, please contact
Coyote Customer Service for assistance.
Natural Gas Hook-up

12
Gas Conversions – Natural Gas and Propane
Coyote grills are able to be converted but you must obtain the correct conversion kit and we always
recommend that any gas appliance conversion should always be performed by a Licensed Plumber or a
certified Installer. Conversion kits are sold for Coyote grills and can be purchased through your dealer, or
Coyote’s Customer Service Department. Any other kit or orifices used that are not of Coyote brand, will
automatically void any warranty on the unit. Furthermore, it is important to understand that where ever there
is a burner, there is an orifice that will need to be changed.
The steps for converting your Coyote grills main burners are:
1. Remove the grates and flavorizers from your grill.
2. Remove the locking pins on the burners
a.You will find these locking pins at the back of the unit. If built in to an island, you can slide the
grill forward and reach these pins. If the grill is located in a cart, then you ca simply reach
through the opening in the back and remove the pins.
3. Remove all of the burners from the grill
4. Using a 6mm nut driver, remove the orifice at the end of each valve
5. Locate the new orifices from the conversion kit and apply pipe thread sealant to the threads on
each orifice.
6. Using your fingers to ensure no cross-threading will occur, install the new orifices.
7. After you have started them with your fingers, use the 6mm nut driver again and tighten the new
orifices into each valve.
a. In case you confuse the orifices during the install, LP orifices have a smaller hole than NG
orifices due to propane coming out of the LP tank at a much higher pressure than natural
gas.
8. Next you will need to remove your existing manifold fitting that connects to the regulator.
a. LP grills come with a 3/8" male flare fitting coming out of the manifold pipe.
b. NG grills come with a 1/2" male pipe fitting that comes out of the manifold pipe.
i. Each of these fittings is designed to go straight into the appropriate regulator from
the manifold.
9. Locate the new manifold fitting from your conversion kit and apply pipe thread sealant on the pipe
fitting side of the nipple (the side of the nipple that goes into the grills manifold pipe) and tighten into
the pipe.
10. Installing the new regulator:
a. If converting to natural gas, you will also want to apply pipe thread sealant to both sides of
the regulator, as these both sides are a 1/2" female pipe (non-flared fitting).
b. If converting to propane, the fitting at the end of the LP regulator is a 3/8" female flared
fitting, so no pipe sealant is necessary.
11. Once these steps have been completed, you will want to perform a leak test (stated previously in
the manual) at all new connections before cooking on the unit.
12. Replace the burners, flavorizers and cooking grates.

13
Your grill is designed to reach a temperature that you set by adjusting a valve that in turns adjusts the
amount of gas that goes through each burner. This Valve is located behind your knob and is the key to your
heat and fuel consumption. An example being: Cooking on low will give you longer use out of a 20lb LP
tank than will cooking on high every single time.
Furthermore, the way to ignite the burners is through the valves, so please understand the importance of
this piece and the position/care taken to the knobs.
•Example: If you forget to turn a knob off and the burner is not lit, then you will have a gas leak out of
that valve. You must be aware of your grills status and be responsible!
Burner Configuration and Heat Dispersion:
If you look under the very front of your cooking grates, you will realize that for the first few inches, the burner
does not release any gas. This is designed to be the medium heat portion of your grill for several reasons.
•One being that the flavorizers ensure even heat dispersion laterally across your grills cooking
surface, so the front is designed to be your medium heat section, while you can utilize the middle of
your cooking grates to get a good high heat (do not forget that this all depends on how high you have
your valves turned as well).
•As you move towards the back of your grill and past the middle section, you will realize that this is the
hottest portion of your grill, for several reasons.
oFirst the grills hood and rear panel does not have the same amount of fresh air moving
across the rear of the cooking grate, as the front of the cooking grate does. Every time you
open the hood, the front will cool, while the back retains the majority of the heat.
o Underneath, where the burner is attached to the back of the body, you will see that there is a
“crossover” in between each burner. This crossover, sends gas from one burner to the next
(as long as the valves are open), to ensure that all of your burners will light in case your
igniters fail.
 For example, if you can only get one burner to light, you just need to keep the hood
open and turn on the valve next to it, to the high position. Gas will then travel through
the new/open burner and will catch the flame from the initial burner.
Burner Use – Indirect and Direct
As you can imagine, by controlling how much gas flows through your burner; determines the size of your
flame. The ideal flame will be blue, with no yellow tip, or excessive noise coming out of the burner.
If you happen to have any of these problems:
•You will want to check the air adjustment screw on the side of the burner itself (called the Air
Venturi) and also the adjustment screw that resides directly below the orifice to ensure proper gas
flow into the burner from the valve
Using Your Burners and Grilling Safely

14
•There are many reasons that can cause poor flames and heat but none are more serious than a
gas leak, so always pay attention for the odor of gas (NG or LP) but do not also forget to clean your
burners!
For Direct Cooking you simply cook your food over a direct flame that is hot and quick to cook but is also
the quickest way to burn your food. Pay attention closely if you choose this method!
Indirect Cooking however is used for larger cuts of meats and anything that you are intending to keep nice
and juicy!
•All you need to do is turn off the burner that lies under the food being cooked and adjust the exterior
burners flame so that you create a slow, constant and even cooking environment for your food!

Instruction for Connecting the Transformer
1. CCX2LP/NG (Built-In) Transformer for Interior Lights
Your transformer will connect on the left side of your grill (looking at it from the front) and operates the
lights inside your grill. Follow the pictures and insert the white male plug into the white female socket,
on the left side of your grill and then plug the 3-prong cord into a standard 110v outlet.

2. CCX2LP/NG-FS (Free-Standing) Transformer for Interior Lights
For the free-standing cart model CCX2 that comes fully assembled in the box, the transformer plug
shown above (for built-in application) will already be attached to the grill. All you need to do is to
un-package the transformer (protected by a stainless steel box) and attach it to the side of the cart as
shown. Once it is attached, you will then need to connect the male plug coming out of the grill to the
female socket that is sticking out of the transformer (stainless steel) box and then plug the 3-prong cord
into a standard 110v outlet.
WARNING: These two transformer should be kept away from the heat of the BBQ.
Keep any electrical supply cords and the fuel supply hose away from any
heated surfaces.

HOW TO CHANGE THE LIGHT BULBS
1. Remove the screw holding the bulb lens and light assembly to the frame.
2. Pull out the entire light assembly from the frame.
3. Loosen the screws that are holding the wires in the light assembly.
4. Once loosened; reach into the light assembly (using your fingers only), grip the two outside
edges of the light bulb (but do not grip the top or bottom of the bulb as it might break.) Pull the
bulb straight out, so that the two electrode wires are completely removed with the bulb. Place the
used bulb in the trash.
5. When installing the new halogen bulb be sure to use a clean cloth or paper towel to ensure the
longevity of the bulb.
6. Insert the new bulb using your clean cloth and gently snap it into position.
7. Re-tighten the screws that hold the wires in place.
8. Re-install the entire light assembly with the lens cover in place and tighten the screw to the
frame.
9. Flip the switch on to check lights.
GENERAL RULES
Do not leave the grill unattended while cooking!
- Make sure the grill has been leak tested and is properly located.
- Check the end of each burner tube is properly located over each valve orifice.
- Light the grill burners using the instructions provided in this manual.
- Adjust heat settings to your desired cooking temperature.
- Allow grill to cool down, wipe off any splatters or grease and clean the drip tray as needed.
- Do not put a cover on the grill while it is still hot as it could start a fire.
WARNING
•DO NOT use the grill if gas odor is present.
•DO NOT stand with head, body, or arms over the grill when lighting.
•Inspect the hose before using the grill. If there is excessive abrasion or wear, or if the hose is
cut, it must be replaced prior to the outdoor cooking gas appliance being put into operation.
The replacement hose assembly shall be that specified by the manufacturer.
•Ensure the area around the barbecue is clear of flammable substances such as gasoline, yard
debris, wood, etc.
•Ensure there is no blockage of the airflow through the vent space located below the face of the
unit.
DANGER
•Failure to open the lid while igniting the barbecue’s burners, or not waiting 5 minutes to allow
the gas to clear if the barbecue does not light, may result in an explosive flame-up which can
cause serious bodily injury or death.
Lighting the Grill

17
Using the Ignition System:
1. Open the canopy
2. Keep your body, arms and face as far away from the burners and cooking surface as possible
3. Depress and rotate the knob counter clockwise to the "High" position.
a. As you are nearing the "High" position, you will notice the valve getting tougher to turn. This
is the spring inside the valve building up energy to create the spark. Once you hear a click,
the igniter has fired the spark and you must turn the valve completely off to generate
another spark.
b. Do not turn the knob too fast, as you need the gas to travel into your manifold, then to your
valve and finally into the burner where it will meet the spark from the igniter (at the front of
the burner). Alternatively, if you turn it too slow, you can cause a build up of gas in the grill
and create a large flash when it ignites.
4. If the burner does not catch on the first attempt, try again immediately but be very aware of any gas
building up inside the grill. If the grill does light after three attempts, turn the valves to the "Off"
position and allow the grill to clear of any built up gas for 5 minutes.
5. If at this point the grill will still not ignite, you can try the manual lighting process below with a long
stem lighter and you can also contact Coyote Customer Service for further assistance to
troubleshoot your grill.
6. To turn the grill "Off," you simply turn each knob clockwise until it can not turn anymore. It is also
normal to experience a popping noise when the burners are turned off abruptly.
Manually Lighting the Burners:
•If for some reason, igniters fail to light, burners can be lit with a gas lighter.
oTo light gas grill with a gas lighter, make sure the grill has been leak tested and
burners can be properly located. Remove the cooking grids and flavorizers from the
burner you wish to light. Insert long-necked gas lighter, placing it near the burner ports.
Press in the far right control knob and rotate left to “HIGH” setting to release gas. Turn
on the button on gas lighter, burner should light immediately. Place back the cooking
grids and flavorizers. Adjust burners to desired cooking temperature.
Lighting Instructions

When you first ignite your grill burn the grill to get rid of any odors or debris that may be left over from
manufacturing and transit. This is done by operating your grill at the “HIGH” setting with the hood
closed for no more than 5 minutes.
•Since this is a high temperature grill; closing the hood will cause heat to build up and could
easily cause an excessive flare-up that could cause internal damage to the grill (knobs, igniter,
etc.).
•After you have “burned off” the grill, you are ready for cooking!
Preparing Food for the Grill
- Always cook foods adequately. Undercooked foods can retain bacteria, especially if thawed or
exposed to warm conditions prior to cooking.
- Always use separate plates and utensils for the handling of raw food. Never place raw food and
cooked food on the same plate, and never place cooked food on a plate that was used for handling
raw food.
- Always carefully wash all plates and utensils used to handle raw food before using them to handle
cooked food.
- Always wash all vegetables, seafood and poultry before cooking.
- Always leave uncooked foods in the refrigerator until you are ready to start cooking.
- Always marinate meat in the refrigerator. Dispose of the excess marinade, and never reuse it.
Grilling Tips:
- If you pre-cook meat or poultry, do so immediately before grilling.
- Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours of taking food off the grill.
- Never let the tray boil dry. That could be hazardous, as grease from fatty foods that have
collected in the tray could ignite and possibly cause bodily injury or property damage.
- Use a meat thermometer to be sure food has reached a safe internal temperature.
- Always trim excess fat from your foods to reduce the occurrence of flare-ups during cooking.
- Apply a light coating of cooking oil to the cooking grids before grilling, to prevent foods from
sticking.
- Cook similar portion sizes together, so that they all cook evenly.
- Use tongs to turn foods on the grill.
- Never pierce foods while they are cooking on the Grill, as this will dry them out.
- Turn foods infrequently. Some chefs say that a good steak should never be turned more than
once.
- Apply sugar-based sauces such as commercial barbecue sauces only during the latter stages of
cooking, to prevent charring.
- Soak the string you use to tie up roasts and poultry on the rotisserie spit to protect it from burning.
- Use a disposable aluminum tray filled with water, fruit juice, wine or a marinade to add extra flavor
and moisture to slow-cooked foods like roasts, whole chickens, turkeys or ducks.
Controlling Flare-ups
Flare-ups are a part of cooking meats on a gas grill. This adds to the unique flavor of cooking on a gas
grill. Excessive flare-ups resulting from the build-up of grease in the bottom of the grill can over-cook
the food and cause a dangerous situation for you and your grill. If this should occur, DO NOT pour
water onto the flames, which can cause the grease to splatter and could result in serious burns or
bodily harm. If grease fire occurs, close the hood and turn off the main burners until the grease burns
