Basic Grill Operation; Cooking With The Rotisserie - Cal Flame BBQ08873P Owner's Manual

Basic Grill Operation

Before lighting, make sure all burner controls are off.
Do not attempt to light the burners if the smell of
gas is present. Check the connection with a soap and
water solution after attaching the hose. For LP units,
make sure there is gas in the tank and it is sitting
upright. For natural gas units, make sure the shut off
valve is on.
1. Make sure the drip tray is in place.
2. Light the grill burners using the instructions on
the previous page.

Cooking with the Rotisserie

The rotisserie burner is an infrared type, which pro-
vides intense searing radiant heat. It is designed to
cook items from the back using infrared heat. The
location of the burner allows the placement of a rotis-
serie-basting pan (NOT included) beneath the food to
collect juices and drippings for basting and gravy.
The rotisserie does not require an additional outlet as
it is powered by a 12-volt input located on the side
of the grill connected with a stainless steel sheathed
power cable.
1. To load the rotisserie rod, hold the handle firmly
while sliding one of the fork assemblies (prongs
facing away from the handle) onto the rod. Push
the rod through the center of the food, then slide
the other holder (prongs toward the food) onto
the rod. Center the meat on the rod and push
the fork assemblies firmly together. Tighten the
thumbscrews. To secure any loose portions of
your meat, use butcher string (never use nylon
or plastic string). Place a basting pan under the
food to collect the drippings.

3. Turn the control knob to HIGH and preheat the
grill for 15 minutes. Close the top cover during
the appliance preheat period.
4. Place the food on the grill and cook to desired
completion. Adjust heat setting if necessary. You
may set the control knob to any position between
HIGH and LOW.
5. Allow the grill to cool and clean the drip tray after
each use.
Do not leave the grill unattended while cooking.
2. To use the rotisserie, first mount the motor on
the left side of the grill. Place securely onto sup-
port bracket.
3. The rod of the rotisserie system is assembled
into the motor by placing the pointed end into
the motor and resting the threaded end on the
support at the side of the grill. Once the rod
is pushed as far as possible into the motor, the
grooved end of the rod should rest on the right
side bracket.
4. If necessary, to offset unbalanced loads, slide the
counter weight on to the rod. With the counter
weight loose, allow the loaded rod to rotate and
come to a stop. Now rotate the counter weight
above the rod in a vertical position and tight-
en the thumbscrew. You can slide the counter
weight away from or closer to the rotisserie rod
as needed for balanced operation. Once lit, the
rotisserie burner will reach cooking temperature
in about one minute. The orange/red glow will
even out in about five minutes.
