13. When all front burners are lit, close the grill lid.
14. Wait for 10-15 minutes; the temperature should reach 400 – 450°F.
WARNING:
The cylinder valve always has to be above the horizontal position, for the cylinder to have vapor withdrawl only.
IMPORTANT
Always allow to completely cool off before covering your grill to prevent corrosion from condensation.
CAUTION:
All cleaning and maintenance should be done when the grill is cool, with the fuel supply turned off at the control dial and the
propane cylinder disconnected. DO NOT clean any grill part in a self-cleaning oven. The extreme heat will damage the finish.
Cleaning
Burning off the grill after every use (approx. 15 minutes) will keep excessive food residue from building up. Clean the grill
before and after cooking is recommended.
