BEFORE GRILLING

  • SHIPMENT ARRIVING DAMAGED : VISIBLE DAMAGE
    If your shipment arrives with visible damage to the box/carton, be sure the damage is noted on the bill of freight or express receipt and signed by the person making the delivery. File claim for damages immediately, regardless of the extent of damage.

  • CONCEALED DAMAGES
    If damages are unnoticed until the grill is unpacked, notify the transportation company or carrier immediately and file a concealed damage claim with them. This should be done within (5) days of the delivery date. Be sure to hold on to the box/carton for inspection. We cannot assume responsibility for damage or loss incurred in transit.

  • TESTING FOR LEAKS
    Create a soapy water solution of 1 part soap and 3 parts water. Confirm that all control knobs are in the off position. Turn on the fuel supply. For natural gas, turn the valve handle ¼ turn to align with the gas flo . For LP, turn the cylinder valve counter clockwise one full rotation. Apply the soap solution generously by paint brush or squirt bottle on all connections and fittings If bubble appear to grow on any of the connections, you have a gas leak. IMMEDIATELY turn off the gas supply. Wash off the soapy solution with cold water and dry. Tighten the loose joint or replace the faulty part with manufacturer-recommended replacement parts. DO NOT attempt to repair the L.P. cylinder valve if it is damaged. The only way to safely resolve a damaged cylinder is to replace it by calling an authorized gas appliance service technician or an LP gas dealer. Repeat the leak test to ensure that no leaks are present. Do not use the appliance until the leak is corrected.

  • IMPORTANT NOTES:
    BE MINDFUL OF WIND DIRECTION
    When selecting a suitable location, consider important factors such as exposure to the wind and foot traffi patterns. If you have a freestanding grill, position it so the prevailing wind blows into the front control panel (at your back when grilling), allowing for proper front to rear airflow . Built-in grill located in areas with prevailing winds should be protected by a wind barrier, wind deflator, or wind guard. The grill is designed to pull in air from the front and exhaust through the rear of the unit. Winds hitting the back of the grill directly may cause problems. Be sure wind doesn’t blow into the hood gap.

  • GAS LINE LENGTH
    Keep all gas supply lines as short as possible. Gas lines lose pressure over distance and with each elbow or “t” fitting added. This drop in pressure affects grill performance.

  • PROPER LEVELING
    PROPER LEVELING DURING INSTALLATION IS CRITICAL. A GRILL THAT IS OUT OF LEVEL WILL CAUSE ERRATIC BURNER COMBUSTION AND INEFFICIENT, UNEVEN HEATING. THE GRILL SHOULD BE LEVEL IN ALL DIRECTIONS. ADJUSTMENTS MAY NEED TO BE MADE EACH TIME WHEN MOVING A FREESTANDING UNIT.

  • CONSTRUCTION ZONES
    Keep all stainless steel products away from construction zones. Construction debris such as (but not limited to) stone dust, stucco, and lime dust could damage or permanently discolor stainless steel products. Keep all caustic chemicals including chlorine and pool cleaning products away from stainless steel at all times.

LIGHTING THE GRILL / MAINTENANCE TIPS

IMPORTANT

  • Never operate the grill unattended. DO NOT OPERATE ROTISSERIE BURNER WITH WARMING RACK INSTALLED
  • Your Summerset Professional Grill is equipped with reliable, high-efficie y piezo ignition valves. Below are instructions for valve ignition and manual ignition lighting.

VALVE IGNITION
PLEASE Keep your face and body away from the grill top when lighting

  • Open the hood before lighting; do not attempt to ignite burners while hood is closed.
  • Make sure gas supply is turned on.
  • Make sure burner control knobs are in the “OFF” position.
  • Press in the control knob then slightly turn the knob counterclockwise while still pressing in.
  • Hold in the above position for 5 seconds allowing the gas to reach the manifold.
  •  Turn the knob counterclockwise past the ignition to the high setting to ignite. You will hear the one time clicking sound of the spark ignition.
  • After ignition, set the knob to the desired setting

NOTE:

  1. If the burner doesn’t ignite, wait five (5) minutes before repeating steps 4-7.
  2. DO NOT turn on more than one valve at a time for either

MANUAL IGNITION
CAUTION : Always wait five (5) minutes for gas to clear after any unsuccessful lighting attempt .

  1. Follow steps 1-3
  2. Place either a burning long-barrel butane lighter or a burning long-stem match near the manual flash tube to the right of the grill. For back burners, hold the flam against the surface of the back burner.
  3. Hold the lighter or match flame at the top of the manual flash tube for five (5) seconds, or, next to the back burner. Then depress the appropriate control knob and while pressing turn it counterclockwise to the HI position. Remove the lighter or match when the burner lights and release the control knob.
  4. If the burner does not light within fiv (5) seconds of turning the control knob, immediately depress the knob and turn the control knob to o . Wait five (5) minutes before repeating steps 2-4 of the MANUAL LIGHTING instructions.

NOTE: Keep the hood closed during the pre-heat period.
BEFORE LIGHTING ROTISSERIE BURNER
IMPORTANT: REMOVE THE WARMING RACK PRIOR TO TURNING ON THE ROTISSERIE BURNER. Turning the rotisserie burner on while the warming rack is installed will cause the warming rack to warp and void the warranty.

MAINTENANCE TIPS

  • PRE-HEATING THE GRILL
    Pre-heating your grill every time you use it is extremely important. Pre- heating allows the briquettes to properly heat up, providing more even and more consistent cooking results. Pre-heat your grill by igniting all main burners. Then close the hood and allow the grill to heat for 10 to 15 minutes, the hood thermometer should reach approximately 450°. Once you’ve reached your desired pre-heat temperature, turn off the burners that you won’t be using to cook your food. Remember, surface temperature can be up to 200° higher.

SHUT OFF INSTRUCTIONS

  1. To shut off the unit, depress each valve control knob and while pressing turn clockwise to the “OFF” position.
  2.  Always close the valve from the gas supply after each use of the uni .

NOTE: When using a portable propane tank: Propane tanks are equipped with a safety shutdown device that may cause low or no gas pressure/flame at the burners if operating and lighting instructions are not followed exactly.
CLEANING THE DRIP TRAY
The drip tray should be cleaned after each use. After the grill is completely cool, remove the drip tray by pulling it out until it stops, then lifting the front edge until the drip tray comes free. Clean it with hot soapy water or an oven-style cleaning product and re-install. When using an oven-style cleaning product be sure to carefully follow

MAINTENANCE TIPS

the manufacturer’s instructions. Many of these cleaners are toxic and can damage the stainless-steel finish if not used properly. Also, check the tray after rain. If you’ve left the grill uncovered, you may need to remove the drip tray to drain the water from the tray.
LOW FLAME ADJUSTMENT

  • To Adjust the Burner to a Low Setting
  • Make sure the grill is cool
  • Remove the racks so you can see the flames while adjusting the burner
  • Light the burner and allow it to preheat on high for 3 minutes
  • Turn the burner to “LOW”
  • Pull off the control know
  • Use a flat head screw driver and adjust the “gold flathead screw” in the valve to the proper flame height

MAINTENANCE TIPS

  • STAINLESS STEEL NEEDS TO BE CLEANED?!? ABSOLUTELY!
  • Stainless steels need to be cleaned for aesthetic considerations and to preserve corrosion resistance. Stainless steel is protected from corrosion by a thin layer of chromium oxide. Oxygen from the atmosphere combines with the chromium in the stainless steel to form this passive chromium oxide film that protects from further corrosion. Any contamination of the surface by dirt, or other material, hinders this passivation process and traps corrosive agents reducing corrosion protection. Thus, routine cleaning is necessary to preserve the appearance and integrity of the surface.
  • GRILL EXTERIOR
    Wash will warm soapy water and apply stainless steel polish to protect routinely Grill Interior

GRILL EXTERIOR

  • Burn off excess food debris and marinades for 15 minutes after cooking
  • Once the unit is cool, turn over the burner covers and burn the top side (the burner covers are reversible and are able to be mounted upside down for cleaning purposes)
  • Use an approved stainless-steel oven cleaner to remove grease build up
  • Routinely have a professional barbecue cleaning company detail the barbecue for best results and longevity

STAINLESS STEEL MAINTENANCE
After each use wipe down the exterior of the grill to remove grease and splatters. Use a commercially available stainless-steel cleaner to clean and polish the exterior surfaces. Doing these things on a regular basis minimizes the amount of effort required
When removing stubborn stains:

  • Do not use metallic abrasives and always rub in the direction of the grain
  • Some household cleaning products are not suitable for stainless steel; be sure to read the label before using on the grill
  • Always use the mildest cleaning solution firs , scrubbing in the direction of the grain
  • Specks of grease may gather in the grain of the stainless steel and bake on to the surface, giving the appearance of rust
  • To remove these baked-on foods use a fine to medium grit non-metallic abrasive pad (Scotch Brite is good) in conjunction with a stainless-steel cleaner
  • Solutions used for cleaning concrete and masonry can be very corrosive and will ‘attack ’ stainless steel
  • Be sure your Summerset products are well protected before using these products

Professional Grill are highly rust resistant, however, chlorine in the air from swimming pools or the salt from sea air may cause surface rust to appear and even create some pitting if left on the product. Here are a few tips to avoid this:

  • Regularly wipe down the exterior surfaces with a damp cloth (micro fiber towels work well)
  • Allow the surfaces to dry before installing the cover Do not cover a damp grill
  • In extreme environments apply a rust inhibitor which leaves a microscopic protective layer on the grill
  • For seasonal storage use the product referred to above, ensure the grill is dry, then cover and secure the cover to minimize the amount of damp air getting to the surface
