First Time Use
Read your Assembly Manual and ensure the grill is put
together properly. Remove all Point-of-Purchase advertising
material from all grill surfaces before first use. We
recommend operating your grill on its highest setting for 15-
20 minutes prior to your first use. This aids in removing the
oils used during manufacturing.
Lava Rock / Briquettes
This gas grill has been designed, engineered, and tested to
be used with a heat diffuser plate to provide more even
heating, improve the cleaning process, and reduce flare-
ups. The addition of after market lava rocks, charcoal, or
briquettes of any type will cause poor combustion and
increase the likelihood of a grease fire, and is not
recommended. Using briquettes, lava rock, or charcoal in
this grill will void your warranty. For extra smoke flavor, we
recommend using a smoker box with wood chips.
Temperature - Convective Grills ONLY.
The temperature gauge in the hood of your new grill
measures air temperature. The air temperature inside your
grill will never be as hot as the temperature at the cooking
surface.
Note: Since 1995, all regulators (the part that attaches to
the gas tank to regulate the flow of gas) have included a
safety feature that restricts gas flow in the event of a gas
leak. You can inadvertently activate this safety feature
without having a gas leak. This typically occurs when you
turn on the gas using the grill control knob before you turn
on the LP tank valve. If the gas regulator safety feature
activates, the grill will only reach temperatures between
250°F and 300°F even with all burners on the high setting.
If your grill is not getting hotter than 250°F to 300°F these
steps should be taken first to reset the gas regulator safety
device:
1. Open the grill lid.
2. Turn off all knobs on the control panel in front.
3. Turn off the tank knob.
4. Disconnect the regulator from the LP tank.
5. Wait 30 seconds.
6. Reconnect the regulator to the LP tank.
7. Slowly open the LP tank knob all the way. Do not put
excessive force on the valve at the full open position to
avoid damaging the valve.
8. Turn on the appropriate control knob and light the grill
per the instructions on the control panel.
An illustration of this process is included in this Use & Care
Guide. See Troubleshooting section for additional
information.
Pre-Heating Your Grill
Just like your home oven, your grill should be pre-heated to
provide optimum performance. Pre-heat the grill on high for
10-15 minutes – longer if weather conditions require. Please
refer to the lighting instructions inside the Use & Care Guide
if you have questions about how to light your grill. A
match-light chain and hole is provided for your
convenience.
GRILLING GUIDE – Getting Started
Regulator Coupling Nut
4 • 464622013

Outdoor grilling is really quite simple. You'll succeed with
burgers, dogs, or steaks usually on your very first try. With
experience, you will learn how to work with your grill,
creating more imaginative meals all the time. This
knowledge makes up the art of grilling. Before you start
grilling, organize your food according to cooking technique
and required cooking time, and optimize the use of your
grilling area.
Direct Cooking
Direct cooking involves grilling your meat directly over high
heat. It is perfect for searing steaks, chops, and other
smaller pieces of meat and vegetables that quickly make
their way to the table.
Indirect Cooking
Indirect cooking utilizes select burners to circulate heat
throughout the grill, without direct contact between the
meat and the flame. The meat is placed over the burner
that is 'off'. This method is generally used to slow cook
large cuts of meat and poultry. A pan can be placed
underneath the meat to catch grease and food drippings,
and helps minimize clean-up.
Rotisserie Cooking
Rotisserie cooking is best for 'round' meat, such as large
roasts, whole poultry, and pork. It generally requires an
accessory motor and spit rod that allows the meat to be
turned at a constant speed. Rotisserie cooking is best done
in front of a special rotisserie burner, or utilizing an indirect
cooking burner arrangement. A pan can be placed
underneath the meat to catch grease and food drippings,
and helps minimize clean-up.
Food Safety
Food safety is a very important part of enjoying the
outdoor cooking experience. To keep food safe from
harmful bacteria, follow these four basic steps:
Clean: Wash hands, utensils, and surfaces with hot soapy
water before and after handling raw meat.
Separate: Separate raw meats from ready-to-eat foods to
avoid cross contamination. Use a clean platter and utensils
when removing cooked foods.
Cook: Cook meat and poultry thoroughly to kill bacteria.
Use a thermometer to ensure proper internal food
temperatures.
Chill: Refrigerate prepared foods and leftovers promptly.
