•Uses standard 1 lb. disposable propane canisters (DOT-39 NRC).
•Prior to installing valve, become familiar with the valve function and graphics
on valve knob. Never force the knob. Always turn or push gently.
•Turn control valve to “lock” and install gas canister being careful not to cross
the threads. Check for leaks prior to use, by brushing soapy water solution
around threads and orifice hole checking for bubbles.
•Position valve with gas bottle as shown (A). Gently insert valve stem into
valve chamber. Rotate until valve stem key aligns with lock detent allowing
valve to fully insert. Rotate gas canister down, so knob faces you (B) or
straight up (C) depending on application.

Valve will feel loose and will rotate easily. Even though the valve feels loose, it will not leak. The
valve was designed to be loose fitting in order to allow safe, easy installation and removal of
the propane canister and so it easily swings without resistance to fit all applications.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

OPERATING PROCEDURES
OPERATE ONLY ON “LOW” WHEN LID IS CLOSED.
ALWAYS OPERATE WITH GREASE TRAY IN PLACE.
WARNING: Do not overheat grill. Magma Grills do not require pre-heating. Stainless Steel loses
anti-corrosive characteristics when subjected to extreme heat. Most grilling is done on low
temperature with the lid closed. If medium or high heat is required, grill with lid open.
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
• Open lid during lighting.
• Depress knob and rotate counter-clockwise to the “HIGH” flame position.
• Push Electronic Igniter. • Visually confirm ignition. • Turn knob to adjust flame.
• If grill does not light (see page 7).
•
If electronic ignition fails to ignite the gas, see MATCH LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS.
NOTE: Before lighting, lid lock must be positioned not to engage. Open lid and turn lock to
locked position.
NOTE: Electronic ignition comes equipped with battery pre-installed. Replace with “AAA”
alkaline battery only.
MATCH LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
(Back up system allows use of grill until ignition system is repaired.)
• Open lid during lighting. • Place flame up to burner through the match light hole.
• Depress valve and turn counter-clockwise to the “HIGH” flame position.
• Visually confirm ignition.
TO REDUCE FLARE-UP
• Empty and clean grease tray prior to each use.
• Trim excess fats from meat. • Use non-oil based marinades.
• Reduce heat. • Use water spray directly on flare-ups.
FOLDING LEGS
For storage, transport or while using mounting option. Fold up back legs first, then front legs (as
shown). If legs become loose they can be tightened with a 5/32" Hex Key Wrench.
PRACTICAL HINTS
Before lighting your grill, be sure that…
• Grill is secure and properly mounted.
• Internal components and grease tray are clean and correctly positioned.
• You have plenty of gas in the canister.
• Gas canister is attached properly and there are no gas leaks.
• Lid lock has been set not to engage.
• You have a water spray bottle handy to cool a hot grill or stop any flare-ups.
STOWING TIPS
• Always disconnect the fuel canister from the valve prior to stowing.
• Stow the valve in a clean, dry area to protect from corrosion to valve.
•
Always store propane in a sealed propane storage locker that allows leakage to vent
or use Magma Propane / Butane Storage Locker / Tote Bag.

ELECTRODE SPARK ADJUSTMENT
CAUTION: Spark can cause small shock. Do not leave
fingers on or near electrode wire while engaging igniter.
• Electrode wire should be
approximately 1/8" from gas
exit hole in burner
. Carefully adjust wire if required.
A
DISASSEMBLY & RE-ASSEMBLY
• Remove radiant plate’s retainer pin (see B) and remove radiant plate by sliding it out
of securing tabs (see E).
• Remove burner retainer pin (see C), remove burner. Inspect burner, remove obstructions.
CAUTION: WHEN REPLACING BURNER, CUT SLOTS IN BURNER MUST FACE DOWN.
• Remove lid by removing hinge screws and nuts with 3/16" hex key wrench
(supplied) and 1/2" wrench or pliers. CAUTION LOCK NUTS MUST BE INSTALLED WITH
LOCKING INDENT MARKS SHOWING (see F). IMPROPER INSTALLATION WILL DAMAGE
HINGE SCREWS AND LOCK NUT.
• Clean as indicated in Maintenance (page 6).
• To disconnect or replace igniters ceramic electrode. First remove two screws on valve
chamber (see D) and remove cover plate. Gently pull wire off connector (see D).
Remove electrode screw and nut with a small Phillips head screwdriver and 1/4"
wrench or pliers. Gently pull electrode with wire out of grill body inspect for damage,
replace if necessary.
• To re-assemble, reverse above procedure.

MAINTENANCE
USING GRILL WITH LPG (PROPANE) SYSTEMS
Stainless steel contrary to popular belief can rust. Most commonly, deposits on surface of the product will trap moisture. It is this
moisture that robs stainless steel of oxygen. Oxygen is the element that reacts with stainless steel to form a protective layer of chrome
oxide. Robbed of oxygen, this reaction does not take place and “crevice corrosion” or “surface rusting” occurs. To minimize this effect,
thoroughly clean your grill with soap and water, rinse with fresh water, and dry. Avoid using stainless steel polishes on grill exterior as
most leave a residue that may discolor when grill is heated.
Additionally, stainless steel that is exposed to high heat will change color and texture over time. The “amber” color of grill exterior and
internal components is not a failure of the stainless steel and will not affect products operation. When this happens, we recommend
using “Magma Magic” Grill Restorer to remove the “amber” color and return grill to its original luster. However, prolonged exposure to
extreme high heat will cause chromium and nickel to “burn out” of stainless steel. At this point stainless steel will become more susceptible
to corrosion and will start to deteriorate. We recommended replacement of internal components as they become seriously deteriorated.
We recommend thoroughly cleaning grill and internal components after each outing. Disassemble interior components and remove all
food residue. Use a “Scotch-Brite” pad or similar product and “Easy-Off” oven cleaner for cleaning grills interior components, followed by
thoroughly washing with soap and water, rinse with fresh water & dry. AVOID CONTACT OF OVEN CLEANER WITH SKIN, CONTROL
VALVE, IGNITOR ELECTRODE & WIRE. CAUTION: DO NOT USE ANY TYPE OF ABRASIVE PAD ON EXTERIOR MIRROR FINISH AS IT WILL
SCRATCH SURFACE, USE ONLY A SOFT CLOTH. We recommend covering grill between uses. Grill covers are available at Magma retailers or
directly from Magma. See our website: MagmaProducts.com. After cooking Do Not turn grill to high heat to burn off grilling residue. The
grill is not a self cleaning oven & this extreme heat can damage stainless steel components.
Grill Grates -Clean with brass wire brush while grill is warm. Use Oven & Grill cleaner for burnt-on residue. Wash with
soapy water and dry prior to storage.
Ceramic Electrode - Located just beside the burner, it should be kept clean of grease and debris. Be careful not to damage the ceramic
insulation or the wire. See page 5for electrode spark adjustment.
Control Valve -All valves are set and tested at our factory. Do not attempt to adjust or disassemble the valve in any way.
Call Magma if you suspect it is not adjusted properly. Clean valve with a cloth and remove any debris obstructing the orifice.
Repair/Replacement Parts - All replacement parts are readily available at your Magma Retailers or directly from Magma.
For a complete list of replacement parts visit our website MagmaProducts.com.

• Use only Magma Type 3 Low Pressure LPG
(Propane) Valves. See our Valve
Application Guide at MagmaProducts.com
for correct valve.
• In North America, use Magma A10-228 LPG
Hose Kit in conjunction with Type 3 Valve.
Outside North America, check with your local
dealer for proper hose and fittings.
• A primary shutoff valve must be used with this
control valve at point of connection. This allows
shut off of gas supply to hose leading to grill.

USING GRILL WITH CNG (NATURAL GAS) SYSTEMS
• Magma on-board CNG (natural gas) valves allow Magma grills to be installed to an existing on-board, pre-regulated low
pressure CNG (natural gas) system.
• Use only Magma Type 4 Low Pressure CNG (natural gas) control valves. Visit out website at MagmaProducts.com to view
valve application guide. See your local dealer for proper hose and fittings.
