Fully Assembled View Operating Your Grill CAUTION The use of unauthorized parts can create an unsafe condition and environment. Your natural gas grill has been designed to operate on natural gas only, at a pressure of seven inches water column (7” W.C.). Check with your gas utility for local gas pressure, because in some areas natural gas pressure varies. Also, check with your gas company or with local building codes for instructions to install gas supply line or call a licensed and qualified installer. It is recommended that an ON/OFF manual shut–off valve be installed at the gas supply source: Outdoors after the gas line exits outside wall and before quick disconnect or before gas supply line enters ground. Pipe sealing compound or pipe thread tape of the type resistant to the action of natural gas must be used on all male pipe threads. Apply compound or tape to at least the first three to four threads when making connections. Never store or use gasoline or other volatile substance in the vicinity of this grill. Natural Gas Connection ...
During high pressure testing your gas grill and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system. During any pressure testing of that system at least pressures in excess of 1/2 psi (3.5kPa). During low pressure testing your gas grill must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi (3.5kPa). WARNING Burner valves are pre‐tested at the factory to operate on natural gas. If you wish to convert or change it, be sure to contact your grill distributor or dealer FIRST! DANGER To prevent fire or explosion hazard when testing for a leak: Always perform the “leak test” as below before lighting the grill and each time the cylinder is connected for use. Do not smoke or allow other sources of ignition in the area while conducting a leak test. Conduct the leak test outdoors in a well‐ventilated area. Do not use matches, lighters or a flame to check for leaks. Do not use grill until all leaks have been stopped. If you are unable to stop a leak, disconnect the propane supply, call for gas appliance service or your local propane gas supplier. Checking for Leaks Make 2‐3 oz. of leak solution by mixing one part liquid dishwashing soap with three parts water. Make sure control knobs are in the “OFF” position. Spray some solution on the connection points of the natural gas hose. Inspect the solution at the connections for bubbles. If no bubbles appear, the connection is secure. If bubbles appear, you have a leak. Proceed to step 6. Disconnect the natural gas hose from the valve and reconnect. Make sure the connection is secured. Retest with solution. If you continue to see bubbles, replace the quick release connector or/and natural gas hose. Lighting Your Grill DANGER Failure to open lid while igniting the grill’s burners or not waiting five minutes to allow gas to clear if the grill does not light, may result in an explosion, which could cause serious bodily injury or death. WARNING Never stand with your head directly over the grill when preparing to light the main burners, to prevent possible bodily injury. WARNING Attempting to light the burner with the lid closed may cause an explosion. Make` sure there are no obstructions of airflow to the gas unit. Spiders and insects can nest and clog the burner/venturi tube at the orifice. A clogged burner tube can lead to a fire beneath the appliance. Lighting Main Burner ...

Using the Lighting Stick to Light the Main Burners Insert a match into the end of lighting stick. Light the match. Once lit, place the flame through the hole on grill body to reach the burner ports. Press the valve knob and rotate it counter clockwise to the ‘’HIGH’’ position. The burner should light immediately. If more than one burner is desired, use the carry over channel to light each adjacent burner by pressing the valve knob and rotate it counter –clockwise to the ‘’HIGH’’ position, repeat the same procedure for each adjacent burner and continue in sequence until all desired burners are lit. Adjust burners to the desired cooking temperature. PRECAUTIONS: 1. After lighting, observe the burner flame. Make sure all burner ports are lit. 2. If the burner flame goes out during operation, immediately turn the gas “OFF”. Open lid to let the gas clear for at least 5 minutes before re‐lighting. 3. Before cooking on the grill for the first time and operate the grill for approximately 15 minutes with the lid closed and the gas turned on “HIGH”. This will “heat clean” the internal parts, dissipate odor from the manufacturing process and painted finish. 4. Clean the grill after each use. DO NOT use abrasive or flammable cleaners. This may damage parts of the grill and cause a fire. Lighting Side Burner 1. Open lid while lighting the burner. Lid must remain open while burner is lit. 2.
Burner installation and adjustment WARNING Adjusting the air‐shutter while the grill is operating. If it is still hot, please wear protective gear and be careful. Failure to follow this instruction could cause personal injury. Flare‐Ups “Flare‐ups” sometimes occur when food drippings fall onto the hot heat distribution plate or burners and ignite. Some flaring is normal and desirable as it helps impart the unique flavors associated with grilled foods. Controlling the intensity of the flare‐ups is necessary, however, in order to avoid burned or unevenly cooked foods and to prevent the possibility of accidental fire. WARNING Always monitor the grill closely when cooking and turn the flame level down to LOW or OFF if flare‐ups intensify. Shutting Off Burners 1. Always turn the valve knob(s) clockwise to the ‘’HIGH’’ position, and then press and turn it to ‘’OFF’’. Never force the knob without pressing it. This could damage the valve. 2. Promptly turn the gas supply to the “OFF” position at the propane cylinder. 3. Close the lid of the grill.
