OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL USE OF THE GRILL
Each main burner is rated at 11,000 Btu/hr. The
main 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 radiants (flame covers). The igniter
knobs are located on the lower center portion of the
valve panel. Each rotary igniter is labeled on the
control panel.
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
foods basted with a sugary marinade may need a
lower heat setting near the end of the cooking time.
NOTE: This stainless steel 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 positioned above each burner.
NOTE: The hot grill sears the food, sealing in the
juices. The longer the preheat, the faster the meat
browns and the darker the grill marks.
DO NOT LEAVE THE GRILL UNATTENDED
WHILE COOKING.

GRILL LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
TO MATCH LIGHT THE GRILL
If the burner will not light after several attempts then
the burner can be match lit.
Lighting rod-Here is your instruction:
Match light extension rod
Use this device to match light your burners
Simply place a lighted match between the coils on the
end of the extension rod and hold next to the burner to
ignite. (see reference Pg)
If you’ve just attempted to light the burner with the
igniter, allow 5 minutes for any accumulated gas to
dissipate. Keep your face and hands as far away from
the grill as possible. Insert a lit match attached to tight
lighting rod or lighter through the cooking
grids to the burner.(see next page) Press the control
knob and rotate left to the HI setting, continue to press
the knob until the burner ignites. Burner should light
immediately. If the burner does not light in 4 seconds
turn the knob off, wait 5 minutes and try again.
WARNING: IMPORTANT!
BEFORE LIGHTING…
Inspect the gas supply hose prior to turning the gas
“ON”. If there is evidence of cuts, wear, or abrasion, it
must be replaced prior to use. Do not use the grill if
the odor of gas is present. Only the pressure regulator
and hose assembly supplied with the unit should be
used. Never substitute regulators for those supplied
with the grill. If a replacement is necessary, contact
the factory for proper replacement.
Screw the regulator (type QCC1) onto the tank. Leak
check the hose and regulator connections with a soap
and water solution before operating the grill.
TO LIGHT THE GRILL BURNER:
Make sure all knobs are “OFF” then turn on the gas
supply from the LP tank. Always keep your face and
body as far from the grill as possible when lighting.
Your stainless steel grill has an exclusive patented
built-in ignition. The igniter is built in to the valve. To
ignite each burner simply push and turn the control
knobs to the HI setting, you will hear the valve click as
it sends a spark to the pilot flame. If the burner does
not light wait 5 minutes for any excess gas to
dissipate and then retry.
FLAME CHARACTERISTICS
Check for proper burner flame characteristics. Each
burner is adjusted prior to shipment; however,
variations in the local gas supply may take minor
adjustments necessary.
Burner flames should be blue and stable with no
yellow tips, excessive noise, or lifting. If any of these
conditions exist call our customer service line. If the
flame is yellow, it indicates insufficient air. If the flame
is noisy and tends to lift away from the burner, it
indicates too much air.
Keep a spray bottle of soapy water near the gas
supply valve and check the connections before
each use.
Do not attempt to light the grill if odor of gas is
p
resent. Call for service 1-866-984-7455

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
STAINLESS STEEL
The grill is made from non-rusting and non-magnetic
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 paper 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. For removal use an abrasive pad
in conjunction with a stainless steel cleaner.
GRILL RACK
The easiest way to clean the grill is immediately after
cooking is completed and after turning off the flame.
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 bowl of 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. If the grill is allowed to cool
before cleaning, cleaning will be more difficult.
E
16 NSURE THAT THE GAS SUPPLY AND THE KNOBS
ARE IN THE “OFF” POSITION. MAKE SURE THE
RANGETOP BURNER IS COOL BEFORE REMOVAL.
GRILL BURNERS
Extreme care should be taken when moving a burner as it
must be correctly centered on the orifice before any
attempt is made to relight the grill. Frequency of cleaning
will depend on how often you use the grill.
MAIN GRILL BURNER CLEANING
Ensure the gas supply is off and the knobs are in the
“OFF” position. Make sure the grill is cool. 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. Please note if insects or
other obstructions are blocking the flow of gas through the
burner, and if so you will need to call our customer service
line.
GREASE TRAY CLEANING:
The grease tray should be emptied and wiped down after
each use and washed in a mild detergent and warm water
solution.
A small amount of sand or cat litter may be placed in
bottom of grease tray to absorb the grease. Check the
grease tray frequently, don’t allow excess grease to
accumulate and overflow out of the grease tray.
