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 flavours 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.
