1. Your unit should be properly installed and connected to the gas for which it
was designed. Do not use charcoal, wood chips, or other material in your
grill. The smoker tray is the only area designed to hold wood chips or
other smoke flavor enhancers.
2. Have the technician show you the location of the gas shut-off valve so you
can shut off the gas supply in an emergency. If you smell gas, the
connections are not properly sealed or you may have a hole in the gas
supply pipe or hose. Determining where the gas leak is should be left to a
qualified technician. Warranty service must be performed by an authorized
service agency.
3. Children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where the gas
grill is being used. Never allow them to sit, stand or play on or around the
grill at any time. Do not store items of interest to children around the grill.
Never allow children to crawl inside the cart or masonry enclosure.
4. Use a covered hand when opening the hood and do so slowly to allow
heat and steam to escape. To avoid burns when cooking, use long
handled BBQ tools. Never lean over an open grill.
5. Use sturdy, properly insulated gloves or potholders. Dish towels or other
substitutes can become entangled causing burns. Use dry potholders; wet
potholders create steam and cause burns. Keep potholders away from
open flames when lifting or moving utensils. Do not touch portions of the
grill rack or burner grate with potholders until the hot surfaces have cooled.
6. Only certain types of glass, heat-proof glass ceramic, earthenware, or other
glazed utensils are suitable for grill use. Use of these types of materials
may break with sudden temperature changes. Use only on low or medium
heat settings.
7. Select the correct pan size for the burner. Be sure the pan is large enough
to avoid boil-overs or spill-overs. This will both save cleaning, prevent
accumulations of food, heavy splattering or spill-overs that can catch fire.
8. Never leave the grill unattended. High flame and fatty meats will promote
flare ups.
9. TThhiissuunniittiissffoorroouuttddoooorruusseeoonnllyy!!Do not operate in enclosed areas. This
could result in carbon monoxide build-up which would result in injury or
death.
10. When using the grill, do not touch the grill grates, open burner grates or
immediate surrounding areas. These surfaces become extremely hot and
could cause burns. Be sure all controls are turned off and the unit has
cooled before touching or cleaning any surfaces.
11. Do not use aluminum foil to line drip pans or grill racks. This can upset
combustion air flow or trap excessive heat in the control area. The result of
this can be melted knobs.
12. The handle of the utensil should be positioned so that it does not extend
over adjacent surface burners or interfere with closing the canopy. This will
minimize burns, ignition of flammable materials and possible spillage. Let
hot pans cool in a safe place out of children’s reach.
13. WWAARRNNIINNGG::Before lighting the burners inspect the gas supply piping
or hose. If there is evidence of cuts, wear, or abrasion, it must be replaced
prior to use. Always keep your face and body as far away from the grill as
possible when lighting.
14. Never grill without the drip tray in place. Make sure it is pushed all the way
to the back in proper position to catch the drippings. Let the grease cool
before attempting to remove for cleaning or disposal. Do not allow large
amounts of grease to accumulate in the drip tray as they can catch on fire.
15. Before storing, make sure the gas grill is cool. The gas must be turned off
at the supply tank, removed and stored outside in a well ventilated area
out of the reach of children.
16. Keep the rotisserie motor cord away from heated areas of the grill.
17. When cooking in windy conditions, provide a wind break. Locate the unit
with proper clearance from combustible surfaces.
18. Spiders and insects can nest in the burners of the grill and block the gas
and air flow to the burner ports. This may cause a fire from behind the
manifold cover. Inspect and clean the burners periodically.
19. Keep the ventilation openings at the rear of the cart and cylinder enclosure
free and clear to allow proper flow of air. Do not obstruct the flow of
combustion and ventilation air.
20. Clothing fires are potential hazards. Do not wear long flowing sleeves
around the grill. They are easily caught on pan handles or ignited by
burners and are generally in the way. Highly flammable clothing, especially
synthetic fabrics, should not be worn while cooking.
21. Do not heat any unopened glass or metal containers on the grill. Pressure
may build-up and cause the container to burst resulting in serious personal
harm or damage to the grill.
22. Do not move the appliance during its use.
23. Be sure all controls are turned off and the grill is cool before using any type
of aerosol cleaner on or around the grill. The chemical that produces the
spraying action could, in the presence of heat, ignite or cause metal parts
to corrode.

25. If the following instructions are not followed exactly, a fire causing death or
serious injury may occur:
-Do not store a spare gas cylinder under or near this appliance
-Never fill the cylinder beyond 80 percent full.

Prior to turning the gas on, inspect the gas supply tubing or hose.
Look for evidence of abrasion, cuts, wear and tear, or other damage which
could require replacement prior to use. Make sure all burner control knobs
are off. DDoonnoottattempt to light the burners if the smell of gas is present.
Check the connection with a soap and water solution after attaching
the hose. Make sure there is gas in the tank and the tank is upright.

•Outdoor approved hood models should be installed in a covered non-
enclosed area. They should also be protected from natural elements (such as
rain) as much as possible.
•Always turn the outdoor hood on to the HI position before lighting the grill.

Make sure the unit is plugged into a properly grounded
receptacle. Turn the appropriate control knob counter clockwise to any
position. This control is both a gas valve and an electric switch.
Burners will ignite at any “on” position with the automatic reignition
system. If the flame goes out for any reason, the burners will
automatically reignite if the gas is still flowing. When gas is permitted
to flow to the burners, the electric igniters start sparking. On all
surface igniters you should hear a “clicking” sound. If you do not, turn
off the control and check that the unit is plugged in and that the fuse
or circuit breaker is not blown or tripped.
Within a few moments, enough gas will have traveled to the
burner to be able to light. When the burner lights, turn the burner
control to any position to adjust the flame size.

Grilling can be either an open or closed canopy process.
Open canopy grilling is excellent for foods requiring quick searing like
steaks, burgers, chops, and hot dogs. Closed canopy grilling is
similar to roasting in an oven. Food is cooked by heat reflection from
the cover as well as heat from the burners below.
• When grilling chicken, roasts, well done steaks or chops and thick pieces of
meat, sear on High. Then reduce the heat setting to prevent excessive flare-
up. This will allow the food to cook through without burning the outside.
• When grilling large pieces of meat, use a meat thermometer to insure that
meats are either rare, medium and well cooked.
• After steaks, chops, or hamburgers have been allowed to sear for
approximately 1 minute, you may slide a spatula under the meat and turn it
approximately 90oso that a waffle pattern will be seared onto the food.
• Use a metal spatula or tongs instead of a fork to turn the meat. A fork will
puncture the meat, allowing juices to escape.
• Turn the meat over only once. Juices are lost when steaks, chops, or
hamburgers are turned several times. The best time to turn the meat is after
the juices have begun to bubble to the surface.
• To test for doneness, make a small slash in the center of the meat, not the
edge. This will prevent loss of juices.
• Occasionally there may be flare-ups or flames above the grill due to drops of
fat falling onto the flavor generator plates. It is normal to have some flare-up
during grilling. If necessary, use a long spatula to move food to another area
until the flames subside.

Infrared grilling produces intense heat which quickly sears the meat.
Searing locks in flavor and juices while allowing the outer surface to absorb
smoke and food aroma that is produced as grease and drippings are vaporized
by the burner. The result is a crisp, flavorful outside with a tender, juicy inside.
As a general rule, foods will cook in about 1/2 the time they would take on an
ordinary grill.
•Preheat the grill.
•Ensure that meat is fully thawed and that all excess fat is trimmed away prior
to grilling.
•Leave the burner set on “HI” when placing food on the grill to sear.
•For thicker cuts of meats, adjust burner to a lower setting and continue
cooking until desired doneness is reached.

The rotisserie burner is an infrared burner which provides
intense searing radiant heat. Preferred by professional chefs over
other methods, this intense heat is great for searing in the natural
juices and nutrients found in quality cuts of meat. Once lit, the
rotisserie burner will reach cooking temperatures in about 1 minute.
The red glow will even out in about 5 minutes.
To install the rotisserie motor, align the drive shaft on the
motor with the gear box on the side of the grill. Tighten the thumb
screws on the motor into the mounting brackets on the grill frame.
The skewer for the rotisserie is assembled into the gear box assembly
by placing the pointed end into the gear box and resting the
rounded end on the wheels on the left side of the grill.

Using the smoker burner intensifies the flavor by adding
smoke to the grilling process. The additional smoke creates a
“cloud” around the food which permeates meats and vegetables
for added smoky flavor. In
order to use the smoker
box, remove the last set of
porcelain grids and flavor
generator plate on the
right hand side of the grill.
Set the smoker box in the
opening so that the front
and rear tabs rest on the
grill frame.

There are many
wood chips available and selection is based on personal taste. The
most common chips used are mesquite or hickory. Always soak the
chips in water prior to putting them into the box. Use the High
position to start the chips smoking, then reduce the heat to a lower
level to prevent them from drying out and flaming. If the wood
chips do flame up, add a small amount of water to extinguish the
flame. Use caution when adding water to a hot box to avoid steam
burns. This tray may also be filled with water to produce steam.
Whether smoking or steaming, the grill should remain closed as
much as possible to maximize the effect.
During extended roasting periods, it is normal to add fresh
wood chips and water to the box several times. Limit the amount
of times the canopy is opened. Each peek adds about 15 minutes
to the cooking time. CCAAUUTTIIOONN::Handle the smoker box with
care. The cover becomes extremely hot when being used. Use
sturdy, properly insulated gloves or dry potholders.

The porcelain grill grates may be cleaned immediately after
cooking is complete and before turning off the flame. Wearing a
barbecue mitt to protect your hand from heat, use a soft bristle
barbecue brush to scrub the porcelain burner grid. Dip the brush
frequently in a bowl of water. Steam is created as the water contacts
the hot grate. The steam assists the cleaning process by softening
the food particles. For thorough cleaning of the grates, allow grates
to cool, then soak 15 to 30 minutes in a hot water and detergent
solution. After soaking, scrub with a teflon scouring pad. DDOONNOOTT
UUSSEEa steel wool pad, abrasive cleaners or metal brush. They could
damage the porcelain finish.
Before removing the grates and burners, make sure the gas supply is
off and the knobs are in the “off” position. To disassemble the grill
for thorough cleaning, remove parts after they have cooled in the
following order:
1. Porcelain grill grates
2. Flavor generator plates
3. Stainless steel burners
4. Drip guards
Clean greasy parts with a household grease solvent such as
household ammonia and water. WWAARRNNIINNGG::Do not use
flammable cleaning materials. Use a flashlight to inspect the burner
inlet to ensure it is not blocked. If obstructions can be seen, use a
metal wire coat hanger that has been straightened out. Shake out
any debris through the air shutter.
