LEAK TESTING
A leak test is used to determine the integrity of a seal. Before using your gas griddle, perform a leak test on the
connection between the grill manifold, regulator and the gas cylinder to reduce the risk of serious bodily harm or death
from fire or explosion.
When to perform a leak test:
•After assembling your griddle and before lighting for the first time, even if
purchased fully assembled.
•Every time LP gas cylinder is refilled, exchanged or if any of the gas components
are disconnected or replaced.
•At least once per year or if your griddle has not been used for more than 60 days.
Although the gas connections on the griddle are leak tested prior to shipment,
a complete leak test must be performed at the installation site. Before each use,
check all gas connections for leaks using the procedures listed below:
1. Create a mixture of 50% water and 50% liquid dishwashing soap.
2. Turn all control knobs to “OFF”.
3. Ensure that the regulator is securely connected to LP cylinder.
4. Spray a water/soap solution on all connections.
5. Open LP cylinder valve by turning hand wheel counter-clockwise.
•If you hear a rushing sound, turn gas off immediately. There is a leak at the connection. CORRECT BEFORE
PROCEEDING.
•If “growing” bubbles appear, there is a leak. Close LP cylinder valve immediately and re-tighten connections.
If leaks cannot be stopped do not try to repair. Call for replacement parts. Order new parts by providing the
serial number, model number, name and part number of items required (see parts list) to a MEMBER’S MARK
BARBECUE CUSTOMER CARE AGENT 1-833-454-0864.

you will see a specific flame pattern. All burner ports should be
2.5cm/1” flame on “MAX” with orange tips, light blue center, with dark
blue flame at the base of the burner port (See image C). Refer to the
troubleshooting steps.
Light the burners and rotate the knobs from “MAX” to “MIN”. You
should see a smaller flame in low position than seen on high. Perform
burner flame check by looking below the griddle top on the side of the
unit to view the burners below. Always check the flame before each
use. If there is a sudden drop or low flame issue, please refer to the
troubleshooting section.
Flash-Back Fires
A flash-back fire occurs when a blockage in the venturi tubes caused by spiders, insects, and nests block the flow of
gas, forcing it back towards the control panel and control knob. The ignited gas, if not detected, can cause a fire to
burn in this area. If you experience any of the characteristics of a flash-back fire, close the LP cylinder shut-off
immediately. Follow the burner cleaning procedure outlined in the maintenance section of this manual.

All griddle regulators contain a flow limiting
device for consumer safety. This device
measures the amount of propane going through
the regulator to ensure the levels are safe. If
the flow rate through the regulator is too high (a
symptom of a large leak), the flow limiting device
will be triggered, restricting the flow of propane
to reduce the chance of a dangerous fire. This
safety system can accidentally be tripped by
opening a control knob too quickly or connecting
the propane tank when a burner control knob
has been left open.
This safety system can be reset by moving
the burner knobs to the off position and
disconnecting the propane cylinder from the
regulator. Wait five minutes to allow the gas
to dissipate. Ensure control knobs are OFF
before reconnecting the propane cylinder
to the regulator. Follow proper lighting

SEASONING AND GRIDDLE CARE
Seasoning Your Griddle
Seasoning your griddle top improves the cooking performance, creates a non-stick surface for cooking, prevents
damage and deterioration due to moisture and humidity, and extends the life of your griddle.
First Use Process
GRIDDLE COOKING SURFACE: Member’s Mark Griddles are pre-treated with cooking oil to prevent rust and damage
during shipping. For first time use, wash griddle with hot, soapy water.
THIS IS THE ONLY TIME YOU SHOULD USE SOAP ON THE GRIDDLE COOKING SURFACE. Rinse and dry
completely. Proceed with seasoning instructions.
How to Season
1. Clean the griddle top with a damp cloth to remove any dust/dirt.
2. Apply oil to the griddle top, sides and corners. Use a paper towel to coat surface thoroughly.
3. Light the griddle and set control knobs to the “HI” setting.
4. Heat the oil to its smoke point. You will notice the griddle top changing color.
5. When the oil stops smoking, repeat steps 2 to 4, about 5 times, until the griddle surface becomes dark.
What is seasoning?
Seasoning is the process of applying multiple coatings of oil to the griddle surface, heating to a high
temperature, to bake the oil into the griddle top, creating a slick, non-stick surface, that is blackened and
protected from rust and oxidization.

Oil’s For Seasoning
a. Vegetable oil
b. Vegetable shortening
c. Canola oil
d. Flax oil

With continued use of your griddle, the seasoning bond will get better and better. Applying a coating of oil at the
start and nish of each cook, will help to maintain seasoning. Never use soap to clean the griddle, this will destroy
the seasoning. Never pour cold water on the surface, as this can cause the griddle top surface to warp.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Griddle Cleaning Tools
You will need:
Cleaning Your Griddle
At the end of every cook, and before storing your griddle, you should scrape off any remaining debris left over from
cooking, before re-seasoning with a coat of oil. For hard to remove grease, you can use a small amount of water and
your scraper.
Once the griddle top is reasonably clean, scraped and dry, apply a thin coat of oil to maintain the seasoning bond and
prevent rust.
Griddle Surface Rust
The appearance of rust spots on the griddle top, is an indication that the protective seasoning has worn off and must be
repeated.
Begin by dampening the surface with water. With protective gloves and steel wool or a grill stone, scrub the areas of
concern until the rust has been lifted from the surface. Rinse the surface thoroughly. Be careful not to overflow the
grease catch. Wipe the griddle surface with a cloth to dry and remove any debris, before re-seasoning 3-5X.
For seasoning steps, follow the Seasoning and Griddle Care instructions. (Page 16.)
Grease Catch
Remove and clean the grease catch AFTER EVERY USE to
prevent possible spillage, grease fires and hot grease splatters.
When the griddle top and grease catch have FULLY COOLED,
remove the grease catch and dump the contents into a disposable
container, and then into the trash. Alternatively, you can place the
disposable container into the fridge for the oil to solidify, before
throwing into the trash.

Burners & Firebox Maintenance
Although your griddle’s firebox is fully protected from grease and other build-up that can accumulate during cooking,
regular checks of the burners and electrodes are still required to ensure proper performance, safety and a longevity of
your parts.
Burners
Once a season the griddle top should be removed to perform a maintenance and safety check on the burners.
1. Remove griddle top. Place on flat surface, right side up.
2. Remove hitch pins/screws to free the burners. Use WD40 and
a screwdriver/pliers to make this removal easier.
3. Remove burners
4. Use a flexible venturi brush to clean the interior of the burners.
Ensure you enter the burner far enough to remove any spider
webs and nests that may be present.
5. Use a wire oo paper clip to clean any blocked burner port
holes. Do not use anything that can damage or enlarge port
holes.
6. Brush away any rust or corrosion from the burners surface, and wipe clean with a damp cloth. Dry the burners.
7. Re-install the burners. Ensure that the burners are properly seated on the valve gas jet before assembling
hardware.
