PLEASE REVIEW THESE IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
BEFORE YOU USE YOUR GRILL.
1. NEVER LEAVE THE GRILL UNATTENDED WHILE COOKING.
2. Ensure all tie-down wires have been removed from the burners.
3. Always use caution when operating the grill in a windy area. (See INDEX: “Grilling in Windy Condi-
tions” for further details.)
4. Avoid wearing loose-tting garments or long sleeves while grilling. They could ignite.
5. Never touch the grill racks, hood or immediate surrounding metal surfaces with your bare
hands while grilling.
6. Use an insulated glove or mitt when opening and operating the grill. Always open the grill lid
slowly to allow heat and smoke to escape before fully opening.
7. The grill hood must be fully opened while lighting the grill. Releasing fuel into a closed grill
before lighting will not make it light sooner or more efciently. It will only risk explosion and
personal injury or death. Never lean over a hot grill surface or look directly into the grill when
attempting to light.
8. Do not heat unopened food containers as pressure build-up will cause the container to explode.
9. Do not use aluminum foil to line grill racks or drip pans. This will alter the airow or trap ex-
cessive heat in the control area and can melt control knobs and ignition modules. Such dam-
age is specically excluded from your warranty.
10. Never use charcoal or any other solid fuel in the grill.
11. Cooking excessively fatty meats and oils will cause are ups. Internal res or damage caused
by them or by the grill being left unattended while cooking are not covered under the terms
and conditions of our warranty.
12. Never grill without the drip pan in place. Always ensure the drip pan is pushed all the way to
the back of the grill. Hot grease can leak downward and produce a re or explosion.
13. Grease is extremely ammable. Let hot grease cool down before attempting to handle or dis-
pose of it. The drip tray should be cleaned of grease on a regular basis.
14. Do not use the grill unless a leak check has been performed on all gas connections. (See IN-
DEX: “Leak Test Procedure” for further details.)
15. Never operate the grill while under the inuence of alcohol or drugs.
16. Do not lean on side shelves and never place a load weighing more than 25 pounds on a side shelf.
17. If any burner does not light or goes out during operation, turn off all gas control knobs, open
the hood and wait ve (5) minutes before attempting to re-light.
18. Portable LP cylinders: Always shut off the main valve on the LP cylinder after each use.
19. Spiders and insects like to nest in the burners, venturis, valves and orices of a grill, disrupt-
ing the gas ow. This very dangerous condition can cause a re behind the control panel,
damaging the grill and risking personal injury. If your grill has been unused for a long time,
inspect and clean the burners, venturis, valves and orices. (See INDEX: “Cleaning the Brass Burner”
for further details.)
IMpORTANT SAFETY pRECAUTIONS

9
Outdoor grills create more
heat than interior kitchen
ranges. That’s how they sear
and grill steaks and other
foods.
These high-performance
burners require a constant,
steady supply of fresh air to
mix with the fuel. Your Lynx
grill pulls air in through the
front and vents hot gases out
through the rear.
Using your grill in windy
conditions may disrupt the
front-to-back air ow. If, while
grilling with all burners on
Fig 2 - Air enters through the front
high and the hood closed,
you notice that the tempera-
ture gauge fails to rise ... be
careful. If wind has kept hot
gases from exiting the rear
of the grill the control panel
and knobs may have become
extremely hot.
Your Lynx grill features an
exclusive, patent-pending
Heat Stabilizer that will deect
wind and, in most cases,
prevent this situation.
But there are a few things you
can do to further prevent the
possibility of improper heat
buildup:
Fig 3 - Wind hitting the back of the
grill can disrupt proper exhaust.
►On breezy days, be
careful not to leave the front
hood down for more than 15
minutes when the burners are
on high. (Never leave the grill
unattended when in operation)
►If you suspect the grill is
overheating, using an oven
mitt, open the front hood.
Then adjust the burner control
knob to a lower setting.
►Install your grill with a
wind break behind it.
►Orient the grill so prevail-
ing winds are not blowing into
the rear of the grill.
IMPORTANT!
GRILLING IN WINdY CONdITIONS
Please Note: Any damage
caused from use in windy
conditions, such as melted
knobs or igniter wires, or
control panel discolor-
ation from heat buildup,
is excluded from warranty
coverage.

10
USING YOUR LYNx GRILL
Grilling requires high heat for
searing and low, controlled
heat for slow cooking.
Thinner cuts of food are often
cooked at a “HI” heat setting
with the lid open.
On the other hand, large,
thick pieces of meat or
poultry are often rst seared
at the high setting and then
grilled at a lower setting ...
sometimes with the lid closed
… achieving the best results
in the middle of the food
without burning the outside.
Some foods are cooked using
direct heat and some using
indirect heat.
Your Lynx grill features a
variety of professional-level
burners and tools for meeting
the wide variety of cooking
challenges. We will reveal
how these features work for
you. So please read and
enjoy!
Depending on the model you chose, your Lynx grill may be equipped with up to three different
burner types. The operation of each type varies, so it is important to understand all three.
Main Brass
Burner
This heavy-duty,
durable brass burner
is the standard main
burner found under
the briquette trays.
ProSear™ 2
Burner
This advanced in-
frared burner pro-
vides high-intensity
infrared heat for
searing foods and
sealing in avor.
Rotisserie Burner
This infrared burner spans the back of the
cooking area and provides consistent heat
for slow rotisserie cooking.
pRE-GRILL CHECKLIST
BEFORE YOUR FIRST
USE
There are a few must-check
safety precautions to consider
before you use your grill.
Please be sure that:
All packing materials and
tie-downs have been removed
from the burners. (See INDEX:
“Unpacking and Assembly” for
further details.)
You have fuel connected.
(See INDEX: “Gas Requirements”
for further details.)
You have electric
connected. (See INDEX: “Electric
Requirements” for further details.)
A qualied plumber has
performed a leak test on all
the ttings that supply fuel to
your grill.
►IF YOUR GRILL DOES
NOT LIGHT IN 4 TO 5
SECONDS you may need
to purge the line. (See
INDEX: “Purging the Gas Line”
for further details.)
AT EACH NEW SEASON
At the start of each new
grilling season you should
remove the grilling racks and
check the burners, venturis,
orices and valves for obstruc-
tions.
Spiders and insects often nest
in these areas of the grill and
can disrupt air ow, causing
damage to the grill and
personal injury.
Also, check all hoses and
ttings for damage, abrasion,
wear and tear.

11
ELECTRIC IGNITION
WARNING
1. Never attempt to light a burner if you smell gas.
2. Always keep the lid open (side-burner lids must be completely
removed) when lighting your grill.
3. Releasing fuel into a closed grill before lighting will increase the
risk of explosion, property damage , personal injury or death.
4. Keep your face and body as far from the grill as possible when
lighting. Any time a burner doesn’t light within 5 seconds, turn
off the control, wait 5 minutes for gas to dissipate, and repeat the
lighting procedure.
5. YOU NEVER LEAVE THE GRILL UNATTENDED WHILE COOKING.
Before proceeding, make
sure you have completed the
“Before Each Use” checklist.
Follow these steps to light any
of the burners on your grill:
First, make
sure all burner
control knobs
are set to OFF.
FOR THE MAIN
BRASS BURNER or ProSear™ 2
BURNER:
Push and hold the control
knob in for 2 seconds,
allowing the igniter to heat
up. Then rotate the knob to
“LITE”. After ignition, set
the knob to the desired heat
setting.
LIGHTING YOUR GRILL
BEFORE EACH
USE
Before any use, always make
sure that:
... you do not smell gas
before you light the grill. If
you do smell gas, shut every-
thing off and have a qualied
plumber check for leaks.
… the cooking area is free
and clear of any combustibles,
besides your food, that might
ignite.
… the control knobs turn
freely.
… if you are using a
portable propane cylinder, it is
securely connected and leak
tested. (See INDEX: “Cylinder
Retention Instructions” for details.)
… you know where the
main gas supply shut-off is
located
… the burners are seated
properly in the grill with
mounting legs in the slots.
The main burners must sit
level and rmly on the burner
support frames. (See INDEX:
“Unpacking and Assembly” for
details.)
… wind is not blowing too
strongly or blowing on the
back of grill.
FOR THE ROTISSERIE
BURNER:
The rotisserie burner features
a thermocouple sensor with a
safety valve that automatically
shuts off the ow of gas if the
burner goes out. (See INDEX:
“Windy Conditions” for tips on how
to prevent burner blow out)
To light the rotisserie burner,
push and hold the control
knob in for 2 seconds and
then turn the knob to the
“LITE” position.
After ignition CONTINUE
HOLDING THE CONTROL
KNOB IN for 30 to 60
seconds. During this time the
thermocouple will heat up and
the safety valve will remain
open.
If you release the control knob
before the thermocouple has
heated up, the safety valve
will shut off the ow of gas to
the rotisserie burner and you
will have to re-light the burner.

12
MANUAL LIGHTING
If a burner doesn’t light after
several attempts, it can be
match lit using the lighting rod
stored in the drip tray.
Match-lighting your grill is
done in one of three ways,
depending upon which
burners are being lit.
First, make sure you’ve
returned all of the control
knobs to the OFF position
and have allowed 5 minutes
for any accumulated gas to
dissipate before attempting to
match light a burner.
MANUAL LIGHTING TUBE
Your grill features individual
manual lighting tubes for all
main burners except for the
right-most main burners.
COLD WEATHER
WARNING: PROPANE
Extremely cold temperatures
may cause your ProSear™
2 burner to light
inside
the burner instead of out-
side . Once lit, if you hear a
‘whooshing’ sound, imme-
diately turn the burner knob
off to extinguish the ame
and then immediately re-
light the burner.
Using the lighting rod, place a
lit match in front of the manual
lighting tube for the burner
you wish to light. (See photo)
Push and turn the correspond-
ing burner control knob to
“LITE”. If the burner doesn’t
light within 5 seconds turn the
knob off and wait 5 minutes
before attempting to light it
again. Once lit, gas will stop
owing through the manual
lighting tube.
RIGHT-MOST MAIN BURNER
The right-most main burner,
does not feature a manual
lighting tube.
To match-light this burner, use
the lighting rod to insert a lit
match through the cooking
grate into the front slot of the
briquette tray for that burner.
Push and turn the correspond-
ing burner control knob to
“LITE”. If the burner doesn’t
light within 5 seconds turn the
knob off and wait 5 minutes
before attempting to light it
again.
ProSear™ 2 BURNER
The ProSear™ 2 burner, does
not feature a manual lighting
tube.
To match-light this burner, use
the lighting rod to insert a lit
match through the cooking
grate and through the protec-
tive screen.
Push and turn the correspond-
ing burner control knob to
“LITE”. If the burner doesn’t
light within 5 seconds turn the
knob off and wait 5 minutes
before attempting to light it
again.

13
PRE-HEATING
Pre-heating your grill every
time you use it is extremely
important. Pre-heating allows
the briquettes to properly
heat up, providing more even
and more consistent cooking
results.
Pre-heat your grill by igniting
all main burners, including
the ProSear™ 2 burner, and
setting them to “HI”.
Then close the hood and
allow the grill to heat for 10
to 15 minutes. Once you’ve
reached your desired pre-heat
temperature, turn off the
burners that you won’t be
using to cook your food.
WARNING!
►DO NOT LEAVE THE
GRILL UNATTENDED
DURING THE PREHEAT
CYCLE OR AT ANY
TIME WHILE THE GRILL
IS IN USE.
►PREHEATING FOR
MORE THAN 15 MIN-
UTES MAY OVERHEAT
THE GRILL, CAUSING
DAMAGE TO THE
GRILL.
TYPES OF COOKING
The main brass burners and
the ProSear™ 2 burner in
your Lynx grill are capable
of creating a range of heat
intensities. By varying the
heat output, the number of
burners used and the position
of the hood, you can create
either direct or indirect heat
or a combination of both and
develop a wide variety of
succulent recipes. There are
two basic types of grilling in
an outdoor grill... Direct Heat
and Indirect Heat
DIRECT HEAT
Direct heat cooking occurs
when foods are placed
directly over the heat source.
This form of heat is known as
“radiant” heat because the
heat radiates directly from the
source to the food.
Direct heat is a must when
you want to sear the outside
of your food to seal in avor.
Lynx ProSear™ 2 Burners
provide the heat necessary to
sear foods and seal in avor.
INDIRECT HEAT
Indirect heat cooking occurs
when the food is not close to
the heat source. Heat reaches
the food via air movement
within the cooking area. This
form of heat is known as “con-
vection” heat.
Indirect, or “convection”
cooking is achieved by placing
the food on one side of the
grill and igniting burners on
the other side. You leave the
burner below the food “OFF”.
You should keep the hood
closed as much as possible
during this type of cooking to
maintain even heat around the
food. You regulate the heat
by adjusting the burner, using
the hood thermometer to
monitor the temperature.
BASIC GRILLING

14
Professional
restaurant
chefs rely on a
different type of
heat ... infrared
heat ... to
create a higher
searing temperature than
what standard burners can
achieve. So Lynx provides the
ProSear™ 2 infrared burner.
Infrared burners work by
focusing the gas ame
through a ceramic element
lled with tiny holes.
These
holes
focus
the
ame
on the
surface of the element,
creating an intense heat much
higher than that of a standard
brass burner. It allows you to
sear your food more quickly
while leaving the inside rare, if
desired.
The ProSear™ 2 burner, with
its advanced components,
requires particular attention to
lighting, usage and cleaning
guidelines. See INDEX:
“ProSear™ 2” for further details.
PREHEATING THE
PROSEAR™ 2 BURNER
Always preheat the entire grill
before cooking to achieve
consistent, successful results.
(See INDEX: “Preheating” for further
details.)
If the grill is already hot from
cooking you should still
pre-heat the ProSear™ 2
burner for 2-3 minutes, or
until it glows red.
Never place food over a
ProSear™ 2 burner before it is
fully pre-heated because food
particles and grease dripping
onto a cold ProSear™ 2
burner can clog the tiny ports
and damage the burner.
For the same reason you
should minimize water spills
on the ProSear™ 2 burner
and should not use water to
control are-ups. Take special
care to minimize dropping
any liquids on the ProSear™
2 burner while cleaning the
cooking grids.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Lynx grill cooking grids are
heavy duty. Dropping them
on the ProSear™ 2 burner
will damage the burner. Such
damage is not covered by
the product warranty and will
cause a re, burns or other
personal injury.
ProSear™ 2 CLEANING
It’s easy to keep your
ProSear™ 2 burner operating
at peak performance. Just
run it on “HI” with the hood
open for 5 minutes after each
use to burn away any food
particles or drippings.
Any ash accumulation on
the burner screen can be
removed with a light brush
(like a paint brush) or vacuum
… BUT WAIT UNTIL THE
BURNER IS COOL!
HOW TO SEAR
Searing locks in avor and
juices while allowing the
food’s outer surface to absorb
smoke and food-born aromas
produced when drippings are
vaporized by the burner.
The result is a restaurant-style
nish … crisp, avorful outside
with a tender, juicy inside.
While the brass burners in
your grill are capable of
producing searing heat, the
ProSear™ 2 infrared burner is
specically designed for this
purpose.
USING THE pROSEAR™ 2 BURNER

15
Rotisserie cooking provides an
even delivery of heat to your
foods. It has no equal. The
constant rotation not only
cooks
foods
evenly, it also self
bastes. As juices rise to the
surface of the food, they
naturally ow around it as it
rotates. And, by moving the
burner out from beneath the
food, you avoid scorching
are-ups.
Your
foods
will be
more
evenly
cooked,
more tender and juicier when
slow-roasted on a Lynx’s rotis-
serie.
The Lynx rotisserie system
consists of four main parts, the
motor, the skewer, the forks
and the infrared burner.
The Motor
Install the motor by sliding it
into one of the slots shown
here. Use the
top slot for small
foods or fast
cooking and the
lower slot for
large foods and
slower cooking.
Rotisserie
MOTOR MOUNT
Plug the motor power cord
into the motor and into the
built-in power outlet on
the rear left panel. Your grill
must be plugged into an AC
power supply for the rotisserie
to work.
Place a basting pan in the grill
to prevent food accumulations
on the briquettes and burners.
But BE SURE YOU REMOVE IT
before using any of the other
burners.
The location of the rotisserie
burner makes it more suscep-
tible to strong wind conditions
(more so than the main grill
burners).
For this reason it features a
safety valve that automatically
closes any time the rotisserie
burner is not properly lit …
like if it were to extinguish
in windy conditions. During
windy conditions, it’s best to
keep the lid closed and to pe-
riodically check the burner.
The Skewer & Forks
The rotisserie can handle large
food items up to 50 lbs. You
should prepare any item and
rst mount it on the skewer.
Swing the warming rack up
and out of the way. It will rest
in place.
Then mount the skewer on the
grill before lighting the rotis-
serie infrared burner. Lighting
the burner rst could result
in burning your hands while
trying to mount the skewer on
the grill.
It’s okay to remove the grill
racks and even the briquette
trays to make room for large
foods on the skewer.
To load the skewer, slide one
of the forks onto the skewer.
Push the skewer through the
center of the food, then slide
the second fork onto the
skewer. Center the food to be
cooked on the skewer then
push the forks rmly together.
Tighten the thumb screws (use
pliers if necessary). You should
wrap any loose, dangling
pieces of food (like wings) with
butcher’s string (never use
nylon or plastic string).
With the food secured to the
skewer slowly roll the skewer
in the palms of your hands to
check for balance. It should
rotate smoothly. If you nd it
has a heavy side, adjust where
the skewer pierces the meat.
An unbalanced skewer will
cause uneven rotation and
uneven cooking. It’s normal
for the skewer to ex with
large foods.
USING THE ROTISSERIE BURNER

16
Slide the pointed end of the
skewer into the motor and rest
the other end on the rollers on
the other side of the grill.
The notched
portion of the
skewer must rest
on the rollers for
proper operation.
The Rotisserie
Burner
To light the rotisserie infrared
burner, rst mount the
skewered food item on the
grill then follow the rotisserie
lighting procedure. (See INDEX:
“Rotisserie Burner, Lighting” for
further details.)
Once lit, the rotisserie burner
should reach cooking tem-
peratures in about 1 minute.
It will glow evenly across its
surface in about 5 minutes.
NOTE: The grill thermom-
eter should not be used
for rotisserie cooking. It is
not designed to read direct
infrared heat.
If the burner will not stay lit
when you release the control
knob, re-light it and hold the
control knob in for at least 60
seconds to allow the thermo-
couple to heat up.
If, after holding the control
knob in for at least 60
seconds, the burner still will
not stay lit when releasing the
control knob, call for service.
(See INDEX: “Obtaining service
from Lynx” for further details.)
MUST REST ON
ROLLERS
Professional chefs far and
wide set their restaurant
cuisine apart by cooking
over wood res. Imparting a
delicate hint of wood smoke
enhances food, raising your
culinary skills to the next level.
Now you can impart that same
culinary touch using the Lynx
smoker/steamer accessory.
The smoker
box will rest
directly on
the briquettes
beneath the
main racks
over the main
brass burners. Do not use
the smoker box over the
ProSear™ 2 burner as damage
to the ProSear™ 2 screen and
burner will occur. The smoker
box is not designed for, and
will not t over the ProSear™
2 burners.
Wood Chips
There are many wood chips
available and selection is
based on personal taste. The
most common woods used
are mesquite or hickory.
Soak the chips in water for
at least 30 minutes before
putting them on the slotted
rack in the box. That will slow
their burning and provide
more smoke.
Extended cooking times,
such as with large roasts, may
require adding wood chips
and water to the box several
times. Try to limit the number
of times you open the hood,
as each opening can add as
much as 15 minutes to the
cooking time.
Use high heat to start the
chips smoking, then reduce
the heat to prevent them from
drying out and aming up.
The smoker box can also
double as a steamer box,
lling it with water instead
of wood. Whether smoking
or steaming though, keep
the hood closed as much
as possible to maximize the
effect.
A high quality meat thermom-
eter is a good thing to have
when smoking your foods
because cooking times can
vary greatly from one food to
the next and from one day to
the next.
CAUTION:
Handle the smoker box with
care. The cover becomes
extremely hot when in use.
Use sturdy, properly insulated
gloves or dry pot holders.

Lynx products are known for
their attractive appearance.
We achieve this by selecting
only the nest grades of
stainless steel and applying
exacting workmanship.
In order to maintain this at-
tractive appearance over the
life of the grill it is important
to take the following steps:
►After each use wipe down
the exterior of the grill to
remove grease and splatters.
►Be sure to follow the
cleaning instructions for
keeping the grates and
burners clean and ready for
use.
►Use a commercially
available Stainless Steel
cleaner to clean and polish
the exterior surfaces.
Doing these things on a
regular basis minimizes the
amount of effort required.
Part of the appeal of your Lynx
Grill is the ne grain nish.
When removing stubborn
stains:
►Do not use metallic
abrasives and always rub in
the direction of the grain.
►Some household cleaning
products are not suitable for
stainless steel; be sure to read
the label before using on your
Lynx Grill.
►Always use the mildest
cleaning solution rst,
scrubbing in the direction of
the grain. Specks of grease
may gather in the grain of the
stainless steel and bake on to
the surface, giving the appear-
ance of rust.
To remove these baked-on
foods use a ne to medium
grit non-metallic abrasive pad
(Scotch Brite is good) in con-
junction with a stainless steel
cleaner.
►Solutions used for
cleaning concrete and
masonry can be very
corrosive and will ‘attack’
stainless steel. Ensure your
Lynx products are well
protected before you allow
the use of such chemicals
near your grill.
SPECIAL NOTE FOR
LOCATIONS NEAR POOLS
AND COASTAL AREAS
The 304 stainless steel
material used in the con-
struction of a Lynx Grill is
highly rust resistant, however,
chlorine in the air from
swimming pools or the salt
from sea air may cause surface
rust to appear and even
create some pitting if left on
the product.
Here are a few tips to avoid
this:
►Regularly wipe down the
exterior surfaces with a damp
cloth. (Micro ber cloths such
CLEANING YOUR LYNx GRILL
as Ecloth perform very well).
►Allow the surfaces to dry
before installing the cover.
–do not cover a damp grill.
►In extreme environments
apply a rust inhibitor which
leaves a microscopic protec-
tive layer on the grill. Products
that provide a layer of vapor
corrosion inhibitors (VpCI™)
protect the surface very well.
►For seasonal storage use
the product referred to above,
ensure the grill is dry and then
cover and secure the cover to
minimize the amount of damp
air getting to the surfaces.
THE LYNX LIMITED LIFE TIME
WARRANTY PROVIDES PRO-
TECTION AGAINST RUST
THROUGH OF PARTS THAT
RENDER THE PRODUCT
INOPERATIVE. IT DOES
NOT COVER OCCASIONAL
SURFACE RUST OR STAINING
DUE TO ENVIRONMENTAL
CONDITIONS.
After your rst use certain
areas of the grill may discolor
from the intense heat given off
by the burners - this is normal
and cannot be cleaned off.
For light and heavy food
stains there are many different
stainless steel cleaners
available.
DRIP TRAY
The drip tray should be
cleaned after each use. After
the grill is completely cool,
remove the drip tray by
pulling it out until it stops,
then lifting the front edge
until the drip tray comes free.

GRILLING RACKS
The easiest way to clean the
grill racks is to do so imme-
diately after turning off the
burners, while they are still
hot. Wearing a long BBQ mitt
to protect your hand from
steam, dip a brass bristle
brush in hot water and scrub
the grill rack. Dip the brush
frequently because the steam
helps remove baked-on foods.
When this happens, let the
grill cool completely.
Remove the racks and then
the briquette trays by lifting
the front edge and pulling
them toward you.
Flip the trays
over and put
them back in
place over the
burner. Light
the burners
and set them
to “HI” for 5
- 10 minutes
to burn the briquettes clean.
Any remaining food items can
be brushed off using a soft
brush.
Be sure the trays have com-
pletely cooled before reinstall-
ing them.
Replacement briquette trays
can be ordered from Lynx or
from your dealer.
Clean it with hot soapy water
or an oven-style cleaning
product and re-install. When
using an oven-style cleaning
product be sure to carefully
follow the manufacturer’s
instructions. Many of these
cleaners are toxic and can
damage the stainless steel
nish if not used properly.
Also, check the tray after rain.
If you’ve left the grill
uncovered, you may need to
remove the drip tray drain
plug to drain the water from
the tray. The drain plug can
be removed with a at-head
screwdriver.
warning
DO NOT ALLOW EXCESS GREASE
OR LIQUIDS TO ACCUMULATE IN
THE DRIP TRAY AS THIS MAY CRE-
ATE A FIRE HAZARD.
NEVER USE GRILL WITHOUT DRIP
TRAY PROPERLY INSTALLED.
CERAMIC BRIQUETTES
The ceramic briquettes
normally burn off any accumu-
lated food drippings. But you
may occasionally experience
larger spills that don’t burn off
under normal use.
MAIN BRASS BURNERS
Make sure the grill is com-
pletely cool before proceed-
ing.
Ensure that the gas supply is
off and all control knobs are in
the “OFF” position.
To Remove Brass Burners:
1. Remove the grill racks and
briquette trays.
2. Lift the burner up until the
legs exit the frame.
3. Then pull to the rear of
the grill so the burner head
comes off the brass orice at
the front.
4. Angle the burner sideways
and lift it out.
Be careful not to change the
air shutter position.
To Clean the Brass Burner:
To maximize grill perfor-
mance, clean the exterior of
the burner with a wire brush.
Remove 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.
Shake out any debris through
the air shutter.
Use a ashlight to inspect the
burner inlet to ensure it is not
blocked. If obstructions can
be seen, clean it with a paper
clip or a pipe cleaner.

PROSEAR™ 2 BURNER
It’s easy to keep your
ProSear™ 2 burner operating
at peak performance. Just run
it on “HI” with the hood open
for 5 minutes after each use to
burn away any food particles
or drippings.
Any ash accumulation on the
burner screen can be removed
with a light brush or vacuum
… BUT WAIT UNTIL THE
BURNER IS COOL!
TROUBLESHOOTING YOUR LYNx GRILL
BEFORE YOU CALL FOR SERVICE
Please check a few things before calling for service:
►Is there fuel supplied to the grill?
►Is the main shut-off valve open?
►Are you using the correct type of fuel? (LP or Natural Gas) (See INDEX: “Gas Requirements” for further
details.)
►Is your propane cylinder empty? Have you recently relled the propane cylinder? If so, is the
connection tight?
►Have you opened the valve on the propane cylinder?
►Is the grill plugged in to a live electric circuit?
If you’ve checked the above items, review the trouble-shooting list below before calling for Lynx for
service.
Heat Shield Removed,
Orice/Venturi Position
Every 3 to 6 months, remove
the burner and inspect the
venturi (inlet) and orice to
ensure that they’re free of
obstructions.
Food debris on the inside
of the burner can be gently
shaken out. Do not touch
the ceramic surface.

GRILL WON’T LIGHT
First, conrm that the grill is
getting electricity by turning
on the lights, then:
►CHECK THE IGNITERS
Your Lynx grill uses an electric
ignition system that does not
spark. Instead, the igniters
should glow constantly when
a control knob is pushed in.
Ensure that all burner
controls are set to OFF.
Remove the cooking
grates and briquette trays.
Watch an igniter as you
push in and hold the cor-
responding control knob.
You will need either a
small mirror or shiny metal
object to see the igniter
under its cover.
(Be sure you push in the
correct control knob and
keep the knob in the
“OFF” position)
Check the remaining
igniters. If igniters don’t
glow, proceed with trou-
bleshooting or match-
light the burner.
►CHECK THE BURNERS
If the igniters are working
check to see if gas is
reaching the burners by at-
tempting to match light a
burner.
BE CAREFUL! IF THE
BURNER FAILS TO IGNITE,
WAIT 5 MINUTES BEFORE
ATTEMPTING TO IGNITE
OTHER BURNERS! (See
INDEX: “Match Lighting” for
further details.)
SMELL OF GAS
WHILE COOKING
IF YOU SMELL GAS WHILE
THE GRILL IS OPERATING,
IMMEDIATELY TURN OFF ALL
BURNERS AND SHUT OFF
THE MAIN FUEL SUPPLY.
►PERFORM A LEAK TEST
(See INDEX: “Leak Test” for
further details.)
►CHECK FOR BLOCKAGES
(See INDEX: “Clean the Brass
Burner” for further details.)
pOTENTIAL pROBLEMS
If match lighting doesn’t work,
re-check fuel connections for
leaks and ensure the supply
is of the correct type and is of
adequate pressure. (See INDEX:
“Leak Test” for further details.)
If the burner will light with a
match, then the igniter may
not be functioning correctly.
Call for service.
If the burner will not match
light, and you know you are
getting gas, wait for any
gas to dissipate and remove
the burner and check it for
blockages. (See INDEX: “Clean
the Brass Burner” for further details.)
