Page 10: Before Testing
GENERAL Although all gas connections on the grill are leak tested at the factory prior to shipment, a complete gas tightness check must be performed at the installation site due to possible mishandling in shipment, or excessive pressure unknowingly being applied to the unit. Periodically check the whole system for leaks, or immediately check if the smell of gas is detected. - Page 11 WARNING: IMPORTANT! Inspect the gas supply piping or hose prior to turning the gas “ON”.

BURNER AIR ADJUSTMENT: FIG.01 Each grill burner is tested and adjusted at the facto- ry prior to shipment; however, variations in the local gas supply may make it necessary to adjust the burners.

Page 15: Using The Grill
Each main burner is rated at 14,000 BTU. The grill burners encompass the entire cooking area. Above the burners are stainless steel briquette systems. The igniter button is built into the valves. NOTE: A hot grill sears the food, sealing in the juices. The longer the preheat, the faster the meat browns and the darker the grill marks. -
Page 16: Using The Griddle
The Optional Sear Burner on all grills makes for a perfect grilling combination. We have also incorporated "zone grilling" into our line of OCI Grills. Each of our burner areas is sectioned off by a “heat separator” to provide the most efficient heat use of any grill on the market today. These removable stainless steel heat shields direct the heat upwards to the cooking surface and not outwards across the grill. - Page 17 Your Grill is capable of performing back burner Rotisserie cooking. The location of the rear burner allows the placement of a Rotisserie basting pan (not included) beneath the food to collect juices and drippings for basting and gravy. To flavor the contents of the basting pan, you can add herbs, onion, garlic, or spices. Hams are especially good with the addition of pineapple slices and brown sugar to the basting pan.
