Using Your Grill
Lighting the Grill
Each time you light the grill, check the following:
•
Inspect the hose before using the grill. If there is
excessive abrasion or wear, or if the hose is cut,
it must be replaced prior to using the grill. If you
need a replacement hose, contact your Cal Flame
dealer.
•
Ensure the area around the barbecue is clear of
flammable substances such as gasoline, yard de-
bris, wood, etc.
•
Ensure there is no blockage of the airflow through
the vent space located below the face of the unit.
•
When using propane gas:
•
Keep the special ventilation openings in
the enclosure free and clear of debris .
Electronically Lighting the Grill
1.
Open the hood.
2.
Keep your face as far away from the burners as pos-
sible.
3.
Rapidly rotate the burner knob counter clockwise
past the light position to HIGH. You will hear a loud
click as the electronic lighter produces a spark.
4.
Listen for the sound of the gas igniting. If the burner
does not light on the first try, repeat immediately.
5.
If the burner does not light after three attempts, turn
the control knobs to the OFF position. Wait five min-
utes until the gas clears before attempting to light it
again.
6.
Repeat the procedure or try the manual lighting pro-
cedure below.
7.
Upon successful lighting, repeat the process on the
other burners you wish to light.
8.
To shut off the burners, rotate the knob and turn to
OFF. It is normal to hear a popping sound when the
burners are turned off.

•
If connected to a propane cylinder, careful-
ly inspect the rubber hose attached to the
regulator before each use .
•
Ensure the propane cylinder, regulator, and
rubber hose are installed in a location not
subject to heating above 125º F (51º C) .
•
Ensure the burner flames burn evenly along both
sides of each burner with a steady flame (mostly
blue with yellow tipping). If burner flames are not
normal, check the orifice and burner for insects or
insect nests.
•
Ensure the in-line gas valve or gas cylinder valve is
always shut OFF when the barbecue is not in use.

WARNING: Do not use standard matches or cigarette
lighters to perform match lighting procedures. Serious
burns can occur and lighters can explode.

If you have just attempted to light the burner, allow
five minutes for any accumulated gas to dissipate.

sible.
