TOTAL GAS CONSUMPTION:
Total gas consumption (per hour) of PG-50403SRL grill with all burners on “HI”:
Main burners 48,000 Btu/hr
Rear burner 7,500 Btu/hr
Total 55,500 Btu/hr
GENERAL USE OF THE GRILL:
The grill burners encompass the entire cooking area and are side ported to minimize blockage from
falling grease and debris. Above the burners are stainless steel radiated. The igniter knobs are located
on the valve panel. Follow the lighting instructions printed on the control panel.
15

USING THE GRILL:
Grilling requires high heat for searing and proper browning. Most foods are cooked at the “HI” heat
setting for the entire cooking time. However, when grilling large pieces of meat or poultry, it may be
necessary to turn the heat to a lower setting after the initial browning. This cooks the food through without
burning the outside. Foods cooked for a long time or basted with a sugary marinade may need a lower
heat setting near the end of the cooking time.
Make sure the grill has been leak tested and is properly located.
Remove any packing material.
Light the grill burners using the instructions in this manual.
Turn the control knob to “HI” and preheat the grill for 15 minutes.
Notice: The grill lid is to be closed during the appliance preheat period.
Place the food on the grill and cook to the desired doneness. Adjust heat setting, if necessary. The
control knob may be set to any position between “HI” and “LO”.
NOTE: The grill is designed to grill efficiently without the use of lava rocks or briquettes of any kind. Heat
is radiated by the stainless steel flame tamers under the stainless steel cooking grids.
NOTE: The hot grill sears the food, sealing in the juices. The longer the preheat, the faster the meat
browns.
！！！WARNING！！！
Electrical Grounding Instructions
1. This grill is equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug for your protection
against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded
three-prong receptacle.
2. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.
3. Keep any electrical supply cord and the fuel supply hose away from any heated
surfaces. Remove and store the motor in a dry place when not use.
USING ROTISSERIE KIT：
1. Take off the rotisserie kit from the grill.
2. Slide off the left fork.
3. Load the meat or poultry onto the rod.
4. Restore the left fork, put two forks into the meat or poultry as far as possible. Make sure the meat or
poultry is located in the middle of the rod. Screw the wing nuts of the fork as tight as possible.
5. Wrap the food with butchers string (never use nylon or plastic string) to secure any loose portions, if
necessary.
6. Restore the rotisserie kit into the motor.
TIPS OF ROTISSERIE KIT：
1. If larger cuts of meat are being grilled, the rod may flex, this is normal.
2. Remove the cooking grids for larger cuts of meat, if the meat scrapes on the cooking grids during
rotation.
16

CARE & MAINTENANCE
MAINTENANCE
1. Keep the grill area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors
and liquids.
2. Keep the holes in the three sides of the cart clear and free from debris, thus ensure the flow of
combustion and ventilation air is unobstructed.
3. Visually check burner flames as following:
a. Remove cooking grids and flame tamers
b. Light burners.
c. Turn knobs from “HI” to “LO”, Check the flame status, the flame in “LO” position should be
smaller than in “HI” position, as figure shown below.
d. Always check flame before each use, see TROUBLESHOOTING if any abnormal status
found.
CLEANING
STAINLESS STEEL CLEANING
The grill is made of stainless steel. There are many different stainless steel cleaners available. Always
use the mildest cleaning procedure first, scrubbing in the direction of the grain. To touch up noticeable
scratches in the stainless steel, sand very lightly with dry 100 grit emery papers in the direction of the
grain. Specks of grease can gather on the surfaces of the stainless steel and bake on to the surface and
give the appearance of rust. Use an abrasive pad in conjunction with a stainless steel cleaner to remove
.
DO NOT USE ACID DETERGENT AND/OR ANTIRUST TO CLEAN THE CONTROL PANEL WITH
PRINTING. SUCH STRONG CLEANSER MAY CLEAN OFF THE PRINTING.
COOKING AREA CLEANING
The easiest way to clean the grill is to clean immediately after turning off the flame and cooking is
completed. Wear a barbeque mitt to protect your hand from the heat and steam. Dip a brass bristle
barbeque brush in tap water and scrub the hot grill. Dip the brush frequently in the water. Steam, created
as water contacts the hot grill, assists the cleaning process by softening any food particles. The food
particles will fall and burn. Never immerse a hot parts in water.
GRILL BURNER CLEANING
1. Be sure the tank valve and the knobs are in the “OFF” position. Make sure the grill is cool.
2. Clean the exterior of the burner with a wire brush. Clear stubborn scale with a metal scraper. Clear
any clogged ports with a straightened paper clip. Never use a wooden toothpick as it may break off
and clog the port.
3. The frequency to clean the burner relies on how often you use the grill.
VERY IMPORTANT: The orifice of the valve must be located in the center of burner section after
move and clean. Otherwise, it may cause serious body injury and property damage. Swing the
burner slightly after replaced to check whether it is installed properly.
GREASE TRAY CLEANING
The grease tray should be emptied and wiped down periodically and washed in a mild detergent
and warm water solution. A small amount of sand may be placed in bottom of grease tray to absorb
the grease.
17

GRILLING TIPS
1. The doneness of meat, whether rare, medium, or well done, is affected by the thickness to a
large extent.
2. The cooking time is affected by the kind of meat, the size and shape of the cut, the temperature
of the meat when cooking begins, and the degree of doneness desired.
3. Defrost meat in the refrigerator overnight. Don’t use a microwave, this always yields a juicier.
4. Use a spatula instead of tongs or a fork to turn the meat, as a spatula will not puncture into the
meat and let the juices come out.
5. To get the juiciest meats, add seasoning or salt after the cooking is finished on each side and
turn the meat only once (juices are lost when the meat is turned several times). Turn the meat
just after the juices begin to bubble to the surface.
6. Cut off any excess fat from the meat before grilling.
FOOD SAFETY
Always follow the following tips to enjoy a safe and heath outdoor grilling.
1. Always use hot soapy water to wash hands, surfaces & utensils after processing raw meat.
2. Always separate the raw meats from done foods to avoid cross contamination
3. Always use clean utensils to handle the food.
4. Always cook the meat thoroughly to kill germs. Use a thermometer to inspect the inner temp. of
the meat, if necessary.
5. Place the done foods and leftovers promptly into refrigerator, if eat no longer at that moment.
DO NOT LEAVE THE GRILL UNATTENDED WHILE COOKING.
PLACEMENT OF THE GRILL
1. Clean the grill.
2. Store the grill in well-ventilated dry outdoors and out of reach of children when L.P. tank is
