Using The Grill/Lighting Inst ructions
USING THE GRILL LP GAS:
Grilling requires high heat for searing and proper browning. Most foods are cooked at the "Medium"
heat setting for the entire cooking time. However, when grilling large pieces of meat or poultry, it may
be necessary to turn the heat to a lower setting after the initial browning. This cooks the food through
without burning the outside. Foods cooked for a long time or basted with a sugary marinade may need
a lower heat setting near the end of the cooking time.
1. Check to be certain the drip tray is in place.
2. Light the grill burners using the instructions in Use and Care Manual.
3.Turn the control knob to "HI". Once the burner is lit, typical preheat time for grills using LP
gas is 5 to 10 minutes. The grill lid is to be closed during the appliance preheat period.
4. 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 "HI" and "LO".
5. Allow grill to cool and clean the drip tray after each use
Grilling Method Note: Indirect cooking method is a popular alternative to direct heat grilling. Indirect cooking
uses heat from adjacent burners to cook food and in many cases, reduces the possibility of overcooked or overly
browned food. Foods most appropriate for indirect grilling included breads, thicker pieces of chicken or steaks.

TO LIGHT THE GRILL BURNER:
NOTE: Open the grill cover and/or remove the top grate cover before lighting. Turn all knobs to "OFF".
Turn the main gas supply on. If you smell gas, shut off gas supply and call for service.
Push and hold the ignition button, turn the selected burner knob to "LITE". If burner does not light in 4
to 5 seconds turn knob "OFF" and wait 5 minutes before trying again for any accumulated gas to
dissipate.
MATCH LIGHTING:
If the burner will not light after several attempts then the burner can be match lit. If you've just
attempted to light the burner with the ignition, allow 5 minutes for any accumulated gas to dissipate.
Keep your face as far away from the grill as possible and hold and pass a lit, long stem match over the
hole located on the top left for burner on the left, or the right hole for the right burner (on page 17,
Fig.13). Push and turn the control knob which is centered on the burner where the lit match is located,
to "LITE". If the burner does not light in 4 seconds turn the knob off, wait 5 minutes and try again.
