section.
To Use:
Press the LIGHTS button on the control panel to turn the
hood lights on and off.
Using Your Infrared Sear Burner
Infrared grilling produces intense heat which quickly sears
the meat. Searing locks in flavor and juices while allowing
the outer surface to absorb smoke and food aroma that is
produced as grease and drippings are vaporized by the
burner. The result is a crisp, flavorful outside with a tender,
juicy inside.
■ Preheat the infrared sear burner for 5 minutes.
■Ensure that meats are fully thawed and that all excess fat
is trimmed away prior to grilling.
■Leave the burner set to On when placing food on the grill
to sear.
■ Use the sear burner to sear meat 1 to 2 minutes on each
side, then move the meat to the main grill cooking surface
to finish grilling to the desired doneness.
IMPORTANT: It is recommended that the sear side burner lid
be raised when the burner is in use to eliminate the possibility
of increased lid and handle temperatures.
Lighting the Infrared Sear Burner
1. Remove the infrared sear burner cover. Do not light
burners with the cover on.
2. Do not lean over the grill. Make sure control knobs are
turned to OFF. The sear burner grease tray must be in
place.
3. Push in and turn the control knob to IGNITE/ON and hold
in. You will hear the "snapping" sound of the spark. When
burner is lit, release the knob. Turn knob to desired setting.
IMPORTANT: If burner does not light immediately, turn the
burner knob to OFF and wait 5 minutes before relighting.
