- Keep handle depressed for 10 seconds.
- If the burner does not stay lit repeat the process.
- Adjust the controls to the desired position.
- If ignition does not occur in 5 seconds, turn the burner control(s) off, wait 5 minutes, and repeat the lighting procedure. If built-in ignitor will not light follow the preceding steps and hold a lit long igniter to match next to the burner when opening the control valve.
If the flame is accidentally extinguished, turn the appliance valves OFF and WAIT 5 minutes before attempting to ignite.
BURNER FLAME CHECK
Light burner; rotate knob from HIGH to LOW. You should see a smaller flame in LOW position than seen on HIGH. Always check flame prior to each use. A good flame should be blue with minimal yellow tip. Some yellow tips on flames are acceptable as long as no carbon or soot deposits appear.
TURNING LP COOKER OFF
Turn all knobs to OFF position. Turn LP tank OFF by turning hand-wheel clockwise to a full stop.
HOSE CHECK
Before each use, check to see if hoses are cut or worn. Replace damaged hose assembly before using appliance. Use only valve/ hose / regulator specified by manufacturer. See product sheet for hose & regulator information.
CAUTION
All cleaning and maintenance should only be done when the appliance is cool
and with the fuel supply turned off at the LP cylinder. DO NOT clean any part
in a self-cleaning oven. The extreme heat will damage the finish.
CLEANING THE BURNER
NOTE: Spiders and small insects can spin webs and build nests inside the burner. This especially occurs in late summer and fall before frost when spiders are most active. These nests can obstruct gas flow and cause a fire in and around the burner and orifice. Such a fire can cause operator injury and serious damage to the appliance. To help prevent a blockage and ensure full heat output, clean and inspect burner tube often (once or twice a month). NOTE: Water or air pressure will not normally clear a spider web.
STEPS FOR CLEANING BURNER
- Remove burner assembly from the oven.
- Look inside the burner tube for nests, webs, or mud.
- To remove the above obstructions, use an accessory flexible venturi brush or bend a small hook on one end of a long flexible wire or use an air hose.
- Inspect and clean the burner if needed.
When assembling the burner back to the stove, the proper location of the burner with respect to the orifice is important. The burner tube must be located over the brass orifice fitting.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Correct care and maintenance will keep your appliance operating smoothly. Clean regularly as determined by the amount of use. NOTE: Clean the entire appliance each year and tighten all hardware on a regular basis (1-2 times a year or more depending on usage). Cleaning should be done where detergents won’t harm patio, lawn, or the like. Keep appliance area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids. Keep the ventilation opening(s) of the cylinder enclosure free and clear from debris.
SUGGESTED CLEANING MATERIALS
- Wire brush
- Nylon cleaning pad
- Hot water
- Paper clip
- Soft brass bristled brush
COMPONENT CLEANING:
Burner should be wiped clean. Hot soapy water and a soft bristle brush can be used to clean the burner surfaces. Clean clogged gas port holes with an opened paper clip. Replace corroded or damaged burners that would emit excess gas.
PIZZA STONE CLEANING
- Wash with warm water before use.
- Do not use soap or detergent on the stone.
- Do not place the stone in the dishwasher.
- Do not place a hot stone under water. Allow the stone to cool before handling or washing.
- Use a light coating of flour on stone to prevent food from sticking.
- Never soak the stone in water to clean.
- Use a spatula or scraper to remove burned on particles and then wash using warm water.
- After appliance has cooled, wipe areas where paint and finish have burned off to minimize rusting.
SEASONING
The stone will darken and stain with use. This is part of the stones natural
seasoning process. This is normal and will not affect the performance of the
stone.
