Keep your face away from the grill as far as possible and pass a lit, long stem match through the notch in the grill rack to the ports of the burner you are trying to light. When attempting to light a burner with a match, ensure that the correct burner control knob is used.
SIDE BURNER LIGHTING: When lighting, always keep your face and body as far away as possible from the burners. Push and turn the side burner right hand control knob to the “HI” position and immediately depress the igniter button.

NOTE: Artisan™ grills are available with both U-burners and IR burners. The following instructions apply only to the U-burners. IR burners do not require adjustment and need only be checked visually for proper performance. On high, an IR burner should glow red evenly over its entire surface.
LOW HEAT SETTING ADJUSTMENT: WARNING NOTE: THE LOW HEAT SETTING ON YOUR NEVER ADJUST THE BURNER SO LOW THAT IT MAY GRILL IS PRESET AT THE FACTORY. GO OUT DURING USE. DO NOT OPERATE THE ADJUST ONLY IF ALTITUDE OR ENVI- GRILL WITH THE LOW HEAT SCREW REMOVED.
DO NOT leave the grill unattended while cooking. ROTISSERIE BURNERS: Your ARTISAN™ Grill is capable of performing back burner rotisserie cooking. The location of the rear burner allows the placement of the rotisserie basting pan (not included) beneath the food to collect juices and drippings for basting and gravy.
To assure that an IR burner is lit, very carefully place your hand 8-10 inches away from the burner sur- face. If you do not feel the heat of the burner, shut off control knob, wait five minutes, and attempt to re- light.

8 ~ 10 CHICKEN BREAST (BONE-IN) 20 ~ 24 These are recommended times only. Due to the variations on the cuts of meats and personal taste, your cooking times may be different. Use your discretion when cooking with ARTISAN™ Sear-Zone™ IR-Burners.
7. If necessary, dry the Grill after use with a soft dry cloth or towel. If the preceding guidelines are adhered to, your ARTISAN™ Grill should offer excellent life and should live up to its reputation of being “stainless”.
Bleaches: Most common domestic bleaches & sterilizing solutions contain chlorine in the form of sodium hypochlorite. If used in concentrated form, bleaches can attack the stainless steel, causing pitting of the surface. They should always be used to the strengths prescribed by the manufacturer and should be thoroughly rinsed off with clean water immediately after use.
To maintain the appearance of your ARTISAN™ Grill for many years, keep it covered when not in use. Backyard environments are harsh on your grills’ finish. Long exposure to sun, water, yard chemicals and the elements will reduce the appearance of the stainless steel.
TROUBLESHOOTING: BEFORE CALLING FOR SERVICE: If your ARTISAN™ Grill does not function properly, use the following checklist before contacting your dealer for service. You may save the cost of a service call and the inconvenience of being without your grill.

LIGHT BULB REPLACEMENT: NOTE: Disconnect all power to your Artisan™ grill before any service or light bulb replacement is performed. Light bulbs are located on the left and right side of the rear hood above the cooking area. The area around the light fixtures and the light fixtures themselves become extremely hot during grill operation with or without the lights being turned on.
Should you need to replace the light bulb in you Artisan™ Grill, please refer to the following steps : LIGHT COVER REMOVE THE LIGHT COVER The light cover is supported by a spring mechanism on the light fixture. Simply pry open the light cover from the left or right side by hand only.

This is even more important when long term storage is intended; always store the grill clean, dry and covered with your Artisan™ barbecue cover. Also, do not allow any food particles or grease to be left inside your barbecue, as this will attract rodents which, in addition to being undesirable from an hygienic standpoint, are likely to cause physical damage to your barbecue.
