- Do not call near the LP gas tank because your telephone is a form of electrical device and could create a spark resulting in fire and/or explosion.
- NOTE: The normal flow of gas through the regulator and hose assembly can create a humming noise. A low volume of noise is perfectly normal and will not interfere with the operation of the grill. If the humming noise is loud and excessive you may need to purge air from the gas line or reset the regulator excess gas flow device. This purging procedure should be done every time a new LP gas tank is connected to your grill. For help with this procedure refer to page 20, Item 4 of “If Grill Still Fails To Light”.
CAUTION: Beware of Flash-Back
- CAUTION: Spiders and small insects occasionally spin webs or make nests in the grill burner tubes during transit and warehousing. These webs can lead to gas flow obstruction which could result in a fire in and around burner tubes.
- This type of fire is known as “FLASH-BACK” and can cause serious damage to your grill and create an unsafe operating condition for the user.
- Although an obstructed burner tube is not the only cause of “FLASH-BACK”, it is the most common cause.
- To reduce the chance of “FLASH-BACK”, you must clean the burner tubes before assembling your grill, and at least once a month in late summer or early fall when spiders are most active.
- Also, perform this burner tube cleaning procedure if your grill has not been used for an extended time.
- See Cleaning Burner Tubes and Burner Ports on

Cleaning Heat diffusers
- Periodically you should wash the heat diffusers in a soap and warm water solution. Use a soft brush to remove stubborn burnt-on cooking residue. The heat diffusers should be dry before you reinstall them.
Cleaning Grease Tray
- The grease tray should be emptied and wiped down periodically and washed in a mild detergent and warm water solution. A small amount of sand or cat litter may be placed in bottom of the grease tray to absorb the grease.
- Check the grease tray frequently, don’t allow excess grease to accumulate and overflow out of the grease tray.
Annual Cleaning of Grill Interior
- Burning off the grill after every use will keep it ready for your next use. However, once a year you should give the entire grill a thorough cleaning to keep it in top operating condition. Follow these steps.
- Turn all burner valves to the full OFF position.
- Turn the LP gas tank valve to the full OFF position.
- Detach the LP gas hose and regulator assembly from your gas grill. Inspect for any damage and replace as necessary with the manufacturer’s replacement part number found on the parts list.
- Remove and clean heat diffusers, cooking grids, and grill burners.
- Cover each gas valve orifice with aluminum foil.
- Brush the inside and bottom of the grill with a nylon brush, and wash with a mild soap and warm water solution. Rinse thoroughly and let dry.
- Remove the aluminum foil, then reinstall heat diffusers and cooking grids.
- Reconnect the gas source and observe the burner flame for correct operation.
Cleaning Exterior Surface
- We suggest you wash your grill using a mild soap and warm water solution. You can use a washcloth or sponge for this process. Do not use abrasives or a brush that might remove the finish during the cleaning process.
Cleaning Exterior Stainless Steel Surfaces
- Weathering and extreme heat can cause exterior stainless steel surfaces to turn tan in color. Machine oils used in the manufacturing process of stainless steel can also cause this tanning color.
- Use a stainless steel cleaner to polish the stainless steel surfaces of your grill. Never use abrasive cleaners or scrubbers because they will scratch and damage your grill.
Cleaning Burner Tubes and Burner Ports
- To reduce the chance of “FLASH-BACK” the procedure below should be followed at least once a month in late summer or early fall when spiders are most active or when your grill has not been used for a while.
- Turn all burner valves and gas tank valves to the off position.
- Detach the LP gas regulator assembly from your gas grill.
- Remove cooking grids, heat diffusers, and grease tray from the grill.
- Remove the screws from the underside of each burner and lift the burners up and away from the gas valve orifice.
- Using a bent stiff wire in the shape of a hook, air hose, or bottle brush, run it through the burner tube and inside several times to remove any debris.
- Replace burners, see illustration below.
WARNING
- The location of the burner tube to the orifice is vital for safe operation. Check to ensure the orifice is inside the burner tube before using the gas grill.
- If the burner tube does not fit over the valve orifice, lighting the burner may cause an explosion and/or fire.
- Regardless of which burner cleaning procedure you use, we recommend you also complete the following steps to help prolong burner life.
- Use a fiber pad or nylon brush to clean the entire outer surface of each burner until free of food residue and dirt.
- Clean any clogged ports with a stiff wire, such as an open paper clip.
- Inspect each burner for damage (cracks or holes) and if such damage is found, order and install a new burner. After installation check to ensure that gas valve orifices are correctly placed inside the ends of the burner tubes.
WARNING
- Spiders and insects can nest inside the burners of the grill and disrupt the gas flow.
- This very dangerous condition could cause a fire behind the valve panel, thereby damaging the grill and making it unsafe for operation.
- Inspect the grill at least twice a year.
Troubleshooting
BEFORE CALLING FOR SERVICE
- If the grill does not function properly, use the following checklist before calling for service.
- You should inspect the burners at least once a year or immediately after any of the following conditions occur:

Cooking Instructions
- WARNING Do not leave the grill unattended.
- Your grill will get very hot.
- Never lean over the cooking area while using your grill. Do not touch cooking surfaces or grill housing. Grill Lid or any other grill parts while the grill is in operation, or until the grill has cooled down after use.
- Failure to comply with these instructions may result in serious bodily injury.
Burn-off
- Before cooking on your gas grill for the first time, you will want to “burn off” the grill to eliminate any odor or foreign matter. Just ignite the burners, lower the Lid, and operate the grill on the HIGH setting for 3 to 5 minutes.
Cooking Temperatures
- High setting: Only use this setting for fast warm-up, searing steaks or chops, and burning food residue off the grill after cooking is complete. Never use the HIGH setting for extended cooking.
- Medium to Low Settings: Most recipes specify medium to low settings, including all smoking, rotisserie cooking, and cooking lean cuts such as fish.
- NOTE: Temperature settings will vary with the temperature and the amount of wind outside your home.
Direct Cooking
- The direct cooking method can be used with the supplied cooking grids and food placed directly over the lit grill Burners. Direct cooking requires the grill lid to be up.
- The method is ideal for searing and whenever you want meat, poultry, or fish to have an open-flame barbecued taste. Deep frying and smoking are also best cooked in this manner because they require direct heat.
WARNING
- Do not line the bottom of the grill housing with aluminum foil, sand, or any substance that will restrict the flow of grease into the grease tray.
- Failure to comply with these instructions could result in a fire or explosion which could cause serious bodily injury, death, or property damage.
Indirect Cooking
