OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
CHECKING FOR LEAKS
After all connections are made, check all connections and ttings on the LP gas tank valve, gas hose
and regulator for leaks with a water and soap solution.
To prevent re or explosion while testing for a leak:
• Always perform leak test prior to lighting the grill.
• Do not smoke while testing for a leak.
• Always perform leak tests outdoors in a well-ventilated area.
• Do not use any source of ame while testing for leaks.
• Do not use the grill until any and all leaks are corrected.
• If you are unable to correct a leak, disconnect the propane supply and call a gas appliance service
dealer.
PERFORM LEAK TEST
• Prepare leak test solution by combining 1 part liquid dish soap with 3 parts water.
Total solution required is approximately 2 - 3 ounces (70 - 90 ml).
Put leak test solution in a spray bottle.
• Ensure all control knobs are in the O OFF position.
• Connect the gas hose to the gas supply.
• Open the LP gas tank valve.
• Spray leak test solution on all gas carrying connections and ttings. Presence of bubbles at areas
of applied test solution indicates a gas leak. If leaks are detected or you smell or hear gas, shut off the

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Cooking Grates
The best time to ‘burn-off’ the cooking grates is after every use (approx. 15 minutes). The grill is
already hot from cooking thus requiring less fuel to obtain necessary temperature for ‘burn-off’.
To ‘burn off’ or heat clean your grill, turn the burners to highest position and run for 15 minutes
with the lid closed. Then turn off the burners and use a wire brush to clean excess food residue
from the grates.
The porcelain grates have an enamel nish (similar to glass) and should be handled with care
not to chip.
CAUTION
Ensure the grill is cool before cleaning and conducting maintenance and with the gas supply
turned off at the LP-Gas Cylinder.
Recommended Cleaning Supplies
Mild liquid dish soap, warm water, nylon cleaning pad, wire brush
DO NOT use cleaners that contain acid, mineral spirits or any abrasive substance.
Outside Surfaces
It is recommended to use only mild dish soap and hot water to clean grill and grill parts.
Rinse with warm water.
Inside Bottom Pan of Grill Body
To avoid are-ups, the bottom pan of the cooking box should be kept clean on a regular basis.
Remove residue using a brush, scraper and/or cleaning pad. Wash with mild dish soap and warm
water. Rinse with warm water. Avoid water splashing into venturi tubes of burners.
Heat Tents
Clean residue with wire brush and wash with mild dish soap and
warm water. Rinse with warm water.
Grease Cup
Empty the grease cup and clean with mild dish soap and
warm water on a regular basis.
Checking The Flame
For maximum fuel efciency and cooking performance, ame
should be a blue-yellow color and be between 1- 2 inches high.
To check the ame, view the ame through the holes in both
sides of the rebox.
