DANGER
Failure to open the lid before igniting the
grill's burner, or not waiting five minutes
to allow the gas to clear if the grill does
not light, may result in an explosive flare-
up which can cause serious bodily injury
or death.
7. Position the charcoal on the fuel grate. Refer to
the "GRILLING METHODS" sections for proper
fuel grate placement and charcoal placement.
8. Push burner control knob in and turn it slowly
counterclockwise to the on ( ) position (F). You
will hear the igniter click. Repeat until burner
ignites.
9. Check that the burner is lit by observing
a flame.
WARNING: If burner fails to ignite
within five seconds, stop, turn the
burner control knob to off, and wait five
minutes to allow the gas to clear before
you try again or light with a match.
WARNING: Do not lean over the open
grill while igniting.
CAUTION: Flame may be hard to see on
a bright day.
10. Turn the burner control knob to the the OFF ( )
position after 12-14 minutes if cooking directly
or indirectly. However, if smoking, turn the
burner control knob to the the OFF ( ) position
after 7-10 minutes.
NOTE: The burner is only meant for igniting charcoal,
not for cooking. Turn burner control knob off
promptly after charcoal is lit to preserve the fuel
in your disposable cartridge. Turn gas supply off at
the source.
