Lighting Grill Using Grill
Before Li htin Grill
Prior to turning on the gas, 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. DO NOT attempt 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.
T-Series Models
When li htin a burner, ALWAYS pay close attention
to what you are doin . Be certain you are pressin
the battery i nition button (T-Series only)
correspondin to the burner you are li htin .
Li htin Grill Burners
Open the hood or remove covers. Push and turn the
control knob until the “HIGH” position on the knob
aligns with the indicator line on the control panel.
Press the electronic i nition button correspondin
to the burner bein lit. You will hear a clicking
sound. Turn the control knob to the desired setting.
If the burner does not li ht in 4 seconds, turn the
knob to “OFF” and wait 5 minutes before tryin
a ain.
This will allow accumulated gas to dissipate. After
several failed attempts, the burner can be lit with a
paper book match using the flash tubes.
If you have just attempted to light the burner with the
igniter, allow 5 minutes for any accumulated gas to
dissipate. Place the lit match through the grid next to
the flash tube of the burner being lit. Keep your face
as far away from the grill as possible. Make sure the
match is adjacent to the flash tube. Push and turn the
control knob until the “HIGH” position on the knob
aligns with the indicator line on the control panel.
Make sure you are turning the control knob that

wait 5 minutes, and try again. If the burner will not
light after several attempts, see the Troubleshooting
section.
Li htin TruSear™ Infrared Burner
(If Applicable)
Before lighting the burner, remove the stainless steel
cover. Push in and turn the TruSear™ infrared control
knob until the “HIGH” position on the knob aligns
with the indicator line on the control panel. Press the

Features
Note: Control locations will vary according to model.
Before You Be in
•Before each use, turn the control knob to “HIGH”
and preheat for 5-7 minutes.
• Check to be certain the drip tray is in place.
• Light the grill burners using the lighting instructions.
• Place the food on the grill and cook to the desired
doneness. Adjust heat setting, if necessary. The
control knob may be set to any position between
“HIGH” and “LOW.”
•Allow grill to cool before cleaning. (Drip tray should
be cleaned after each use.)
Canopy Thermometers (If Applicable)
Your outdoor grill is equipped with a thermometer on
the canopy. The thermometer is designed to aide in
the preheating of the grill and closed canopy grilling.
The estimated cooking temperatures with the canopy
closed are:
Smoker Box
Using the smoker box feature 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 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.
Wood Chip Use in Smoker Box
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.

Lighting Grill (cont.)
Li htin Side Burners
First, remove the burner cover or any cooking utensil
from the burner grate.
Push and turn the control knob until the “HIGH”
position aligns with the indicator line on the control
panel. Immediately press the electronic i nition
button correspondin to the burner(s) bein lit
until the burner is lit or until 4 seconds pass. If the
burner does not li ht after several attempts, wait
five minutes to allow any accumulated as to
dissipate. If the burner will not light after several
attempts, then the burner can be lit by holding a lit
match next to the burner ports. Push and turn the
control knob until the “HIGH” position on the knob
aligns with the indicator line on the control panel.
Li htin the Grill Burners
(E-Series Models)
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
recognition 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. If the burner does not li ht in 4
seconds, turn the knob to “OFF” and wait 5 minutes
before tryin a ain. This will allow accumulated gas to
dissipate. After several failed attempts the burner can
be lit with a paper book match using the flash tubes.
If you have just attempted to light the burner with the
ignitor, allow 5 minutes for any accumulated gas to
dissipate. Place the lit match through the grid next to
the flash tube of the burner being lit. Keep your face
as far away from the grill as possible. Make sure the
match is adjacent to the flash tube. Push and turn the
control knob until the “HIGH” position on the knob
aligns with the indicator line on the control panel.
Make sure you are turning the control knob that
corresponds with the burner being lit. If the burner
does not li ht in 4 seconds, turn the knob to
“OFF,” wait 5 minutes, and try a ain. If the burner
will not light after several attempts, see the
Troubleshooting section.
Li htin Infrared Rotisserie Burner
(T-Series and E-Series Models)
The location of the infrared burner makes it more
susceptible to strong wind conditions—more so than
the protected grill burners. For this reason you should
avoid using it during windy conditions.
Open the canopy. Push in and turn the rotisserie
control knob until the “HIGH” position on the knob
aligns with the indicator line on the control panel and
continue to hold in the knob. Press the electronic
ignition button which corresponds to the rotisserie
control knob. You will hear a clicking sound. After the
burner lights, hold the rotisserie control knob in about
5 seconds longer or until the burner remains lit. Once
lit, turn the control knob to the desired setting. If the
burner does not light within 4 seconds, release and
turn the control knob to “OFF”. Wait 5 minutes for
any accumulated as to dissipate. If the burner does
not light after several attempts, then the burner can
be lit by holding a lit match to the burner (with the
control knob pushed in at the light position). Push and
turn the control knob until the “HIGH” position on the
knob aligns with the indicator line on the control
panel. Make sure you are turning the control knob
that corresponds with the burner being lit. If relighting
a hot burner, wait 5 minutes. NEVER leave the
rotisserie control knob at “ON” if rotisserie is
not in use.

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
5minutes.
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
To load the skewer, slide one of the rotisserie forks
(prongs facing away from the end) onto the skewer.
Push the skewer through the center of the food, then
slide the second rotisserie fork (prongs toward the
food) onto the skewer. Center the product to be
cooked on the skewer then push the forks firmly
toward the food. Tighten the wing nuts with pliers.
It may also be necessary to wrap the food with
butcher’s string to secure loose portions. NEVER use
nylon or plastic string. Once the food is secure, insert
the skewer into the motor. To turn on rotisserie motor,
flip the ON/OFF switch located on the rotisserie
motor assembly.
If needed, remove the grill grates. Place the basting
pan beneath the food. Keep canopy closed while
using the rotisserie. Each peek adds about 15 minutes
to the cooking time. A meat thermometer should be
used when cooking large pieces of meat to ensure
that the meats are rare, medium, or well cooked.
