DIMENSIONS
GRILL SIZE: 14X in X 21$t in (IRREGULAR) = 285 in’ (37 cm X 54 cm
(IRREGULAR)= 1840 cm’) ALL DIMENSIONS ARE APPROXIMATE
Handle With Care
CAUTION! Use care when handling or transporting your grill to prevent damage and misalignment of internal components. Although this grill has been designed with mobility in mind, rough handling or abuse will result in damage to internal components, preventing your grill from operating properly.
General Information
This gas barbecue is certified under Canadian and American National Standards, CSA 1.6 – 2015 and ANSI Z21.58 – 2015 respectively for outdoor gas grills and should be installed to conform to local codes. In the absence of local codes, install to the current CAN/CSA-B149.1 Propane Installation Code in Canada or to the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 and ANSI/NFPA 58 in the United States.
Use only the pressure regulator provided with this barbecue. Replacement pressure regulators must be supplied by or specified by the manufacturer. The regulator supplies a pressure of 11 inches water column to the gas grill and has a female CGA#600 type fitting.
Cylinder Installation: 1 lb (.454kg) disposable cylinders to be used with
this unit must be equipped with a male CGA #600 type connection. This cylinder
has a positive seating connection, which will not allow gas flow until a
positive seal has been achieved. To install the cylinder simply screw it into
the regulator – tighten hand tight. The cylinder must be an upright position,
hanging down from the regulator when operating the grill. This will prevent
liquid propane from entering the regulator, which can cause over firing and
damage to the regulator.
WARNING! Use cylinders that are marked “Propane Fuel” only.
WARNING! Be careful not to cross thread when installing the cylinder. Do not use tools to tighten the cylinder.
WARNING! The dust cap should be in place when the propane cylinder is not in use to prevent dirt and debris from entering.
WARNING! Review instructions on propane cylinder prior to using. A dented or rusted cylinder may be hazardous. Discard cylinder if rust particles or debris are in the connectionarea of the propane cylinder.
Optional Supply Hose Instructions: An optional hose is available from your Napoleon Dealer that allows the grill to be connected to a 20 lb (9.1 kg) cylinder.
WARNING! If these instructions
are not followed exactly, a fire causing death or serious injury may occur.
WARNING! Do not store a spare
propane cylinder on the shelf beneath the barbecue.
If the gas grill is being supplied with propane from a portable cylinder, a regulator specified by themanufacturer must be used. The regulator must supply a pressure of 11 inches water column (0.39 PSI) to the gas grill and have a QCC1 type fitting. Cylinders to be used with this unit must be supplied with a QCC1 cylinder valve. A QCC1 cylinder has a positive seating connection, which will not allow gas flow until a positive seal has been achieved. It is also equipped with an excess flow device. In order to attain full flow to the grill, the valves must be in the off position when the cylinder valve is turned on.
A dented or rusty cylinder may be hazardous and should be checked by your propane supplier. Never use a cylinder with a damaged valve. Use only a propane supply cylinder constructed and marked in accordance with the specifications for LP-gas cylinders of the National Standard of Canada, CAN/ CSA-b339, Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for Transportation of Dangerous Goods; and Commission, as applicable or the Specifications for LP-Gas Cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportation (D.O.T.). Cart models have been designed for use with a 20 lb (9.1 kg) size propane cylinder only (not supplied). The propane cylinder must be provided with a cylinder connection device compatible with the connection for outdoor cooking appliances.
The propane cylinder must be provided with a shut-off valve terminating in a
propane cylinder valve type QCC1, and a safety relief device having direct
communication with the vapor space of the cylinder. The cylinder supply system
must be arranged for vapor withdrawal and the cylinder shall include a collar
to protect the cylinder valve. The cylinder shall incorporate a listed OPD
(overfill protection device). Do not store a spare LP-gas cylinder under or
near this appliance. Never fill the cylinder beyond 80 percent full. If the
preceding information is not followed exactly, a fire causing death or serious
injury may occur.
WARNING! Locate the hose out of pathways where people may trip over it or in areas where the hose may be subject to accidental damage. Do not tip or move propane supply cylinder.
California Proposition 65: The burning of gas fuel creates by-products, some of which are on the list as substances known by the State of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm. When cooking with gas, always ensure adequate ventilation to the unit, to minimize exposure to such substances.
Leak Testing Instructions
WARNING! A leak test must be performed annually and each time a cylinder is hooked up or if a part of the gas system is replaced.
WARNING! Never use an open flame to check for gas leaks. Be certain no sparks or open flames are in the area while you check for leaks. Sparks or open flames will result in a fire or explosion, damage to property, serious bodily injury, or death.
Leak testing: This must be done before initial use, annually, and whenever any gas components are replaced or serviced. Do not smoke while performing this test, and remove all sources of ignition. See Leak Testing Diagram for areas to check. Turn all burner controls to the off position. Turn gas supply valve on. Brush a half-and-half solution of liquid soap and water onto all joints and connections of the regulator, hose, manifolds and valves.
Bubbles will indicate a gas leak. Either tighten the loose joint or have the part replaced with one recommended by the Napoleon Customer Solutions department and have the grill inspected by a certified gas installer.
If the leak cannot be stopped,
immediately shut off the gas supply, disconnect it, and have the grill
inspected by a certified gas installer or dealer. Do not use the grill until
the leak has been corrected.
Lighting Instructions
WARNING! Open lid
WARNING! Ensure all burner controls are in the off position. Connect a
disposable cylinder or slowly turn on the gas supply valve (large propane
cylinder).
Main Burner Lighting
- Open grill lid
- Push and turn any main burner control knob slowly to the ‘hi’ position. This action will ignite the selected burner.
- If the burner does not ignite, then immediately turn the control knob back to the ‘off’ position and repeat step 2 several times.
- If the burner will not ignite within 5 seconds, turn the control knob to the ‘off’ position and wait 5 minutes for any excess gas to dissipate, either repeat steps 2 and 3 or light with a match.
- If lighting the unit with a match, clip the match into the supplied lighting rod. Hold the lit match down through the grill while turning the corresponding burner valve to high.
Cooking Instructions
WARNING! Do not use this grill under extended awnings. Failure to follow these instructions could result in a fire or personal injury.
DANGER! Allow the grill to cool to the touch before moving or storing. Failure to do so could result in a fire resulting in property damage, personal injury or death.
Initial Lighting: When lit for the first time, the gas grill emits a slight odor. This is a normal temporary condition caused by the “burn-in” of internal paints and lubricants used in the manufacturing process and does not occur again. Simply run the main burners on high for approximately one-half hour.
Main Burner Use: When searing foods, we recommend preheating the grill by operating all main burners in the high position with the lid closed for approximately 10 minutes. Food cooked for short periods of time (fish, vegetables) can be grilled with the lid open. Cooking with the lid closed will ensure higher, more even temperatures that can reduce cooking time and cook meat more evenly. Food that has a cooking time longer than 30 minutes, such as roasts, can be cooked indirectly (with the burner lit opposite to the food placement). When cooking very lean meats, such as chicken breasts or lean pork, the grids can be oiled before pre-heating to reduce sticking. Cooking meat with a high degree of fat content can create flare-ups. Either trim the fat or reduce temperatures to inhibit this. Should a flare-up occur, move food away from the flames and reduce the heat. Leave the lid open. See Your All Season Grill cookbook by Napoleon for more detailed instructions.
Cleaning Instructions
WARNING! Always wear protective gloves and safety glasses when servicing your grill.
WARNING! To avoid the possibility of burns, maintenance should be done only when the grill is cool. Avoid unprotected contact with hot surfaces. Ensure all burners are turned off. Clean grill in an area where cleaning solutions will not harm decks, lawns, or patios. Do not use oven cleaner to clean any part of this gas grill. Do not use a self-cleaning oven to clean cooking grids or any other parts of the gas grill. Barbecue sauce and salt can be corrosive and will cause rapid deterioration of the gas grill components unless cleaned regularly.
Note: Stainless steel tends to oxidize or stain in the presence of chlorides and sulfides, particularly in coastal areas and other harsh environments, such as the warm, highly humid atmosphere around pools and hot tubs. These stains could be perceived as rust, but can be easily removed or prevented. To provide stain prevention and removal, wash all stainless steel and chrome surfaces every 3-4 weeks or as often as required with fresh water and/or stainless steel cleaner.
Cast Iron Cooking Grids: The cast iron cooking grids supplied with your new grill offer superior heat retention and distribution. By regularly seasoning your grids you are adding a protective coating, which will aid in resisting corrosion and increase your grids non-stick capabilities.
First Time Use: Wash the cooking grids by hand with mild dish soap and water to remove any residue from the manufacturing process (never wash in a dish washer). Rinse thoroughly with hot water and dry completely with a soft cloth. This is important to avoid moisture from entering the cast iron.
Seasoning: Using a soft cloth, spread VEGETABLE SHORTENING over the entire grid surface ensuring all grooves and corners are covered. Do not use salted fats such as butter or margarine. Pre-heat your grill for 15 minutes, then place the seasoned cooking grids in the grill. Turn the burner control knobs to medium with the lid closed. Allow the cooking grids to heat for approximately one-half hour. Turn all the burners to the “OFF” position and turn the gas off at the source. Let the cooking grids stand until cool. This procedure should be repeated several times throughout the season, although it is not required for daily use (follow daily usage procedure below).
Daily Usage: Before pre-heating, and cleaning with a brass wire grill brush, coat the entire top surface of the cooking grids with VEGETABLE SHORTENING. Pre-heat the grill and then brush away any unwanted residue with a brass wire brush.
Cleaning Inside The Gas Grill: Remove the cooking grids. Use a brass wire brush to clean loose debris from casting sides and underneath the lid. Brush all debris from inside the gas grill into the removable drip pan.
Drip Pan: Accumulated grease is a fire hazard. Clean the drip pan frequently to avoid grease buildup. Grease and excess drippings pass through to the drip pan, located beneath the gas grill and accumulate. To clean, slide the drip pan free of the grill. Never line the drip pan with aluminum foil, sand or any other material as this could prevent the grease from flowing properly. The pan should be scraped out with a putty knife or scraper.
CAUTION! Ensure drip pan is empty and clean before transporting grill in vertical position.
Cleaning The Outer Grill Surface: Do not use abrasive cleaners or steel wool on any painted, porcelain or stainless steel parts of your Napoleon Grill. Doing so will scratch the finish. Exterior grill surfaces should be cleaned with warm soapy water while the metal is still warm to the touch. To clean stainless surfaces, use a stainless steel or a non-abrasive cleaner. Always wipe in the direction of the grain. Over time, stainless steel parts discolor when heated, usually to a golden or brown hue. This discoloration is normal and does not affect the performance of the grill. Porcelain enamel components must be handled with additional care. The baked-on enamel finish is glass-like, and will chip if struck. Touch up enamel is available from your Napoleon Grill dealer.
Maintenance Instructions
We recommend this gas grill be thoroughly inspected and serviced annually by a qualified service person. At all times keep the gas grill area free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids. Do not obstruct the flow of ventilation and combustion air.
WARNING! Always wear protective gloves and safety glasses when cleaning your grill.
WARNING! Turn off the gas at the source and disconnect the unit before
servicing. To avoid the possibility of burns, maintenance should be done only
when the grill is cool. A leak test must be performed annually and whenever
any component of the gas train is replaced or gas smell is present.
Burner: The burner is made from heavy wall 304 stainless steel, but extreme heat and a corrosive environment can cause surface corrosion to occur. This can be removed with a brass wire brush.
CAUTION! Beware of Spiders.
Spiders and insects are attracted to the smell of propane and natural gas. The burner is equipped with an insect screen on the air shutter, which reduces the likelihood of insects building nests inside the burner but does not entirely eliminate the problem. A nest or web can cause the burner to burn with a soft yellow or orange flame or cause a fire (flashback) at the air shutter underneath the control panel. To clean the inside of the burner, it must be removed from the gas grill: Remove the screw (s) that attach the cross light bracket and the burner to the base. Slide the burner back and upwards to remove. Cleaning: Use a flexible venturi tube brush to clean the inside of the burner. Shake any loose debris from the burner through the gas inlet. Check the burner ports and valve orifices for blockages. Burner ports can close over time due to cooking debris and corrosion; use an opened paperclip to clean them. The ports are easier to clean if the burner is removed from the grill, but it can also be done with the burner installed.
CAUTION! Take care not to enlarge the holes.
Ensure the insect screen is clean, tight, and free of any lint or other
debris.
Reinstallation: Reverse the procedure to reinstall the burner. Check that the valve enters the burner when installing. Replace cross light bracket and tighten screws to complete reinstallation.
WARNING! When reinstalling the
burner after cleaning it is very important that the valve/orifice enters the
burner tube before lighting your gas grill. If the valve is not inside the
burner tube a fire or explosion could occur.
WARNING! Hose (optional): Check for abrasions, melting, cuts, and cracks in the hose. If any of these conditions exist, do not use the gas grill. Have the part replaced by your Napoleon Gas Grill dealer or qualified gas installer.
Troubleshooting
Problem | Possible Causes | Solution |
---|---|---|
Low heat / Low flame when valve turned to high. | Blockage of gas. |
Improper preheating.
Cylinder freezing up.| Check for spider webs in the burner or orifice.
Preheat grill with main burners on high for 5 to 10 minutes.
When cooking for long periods of time, or when the cylinder is close to being
empty, or low outside air temperatures, 1 lb cylinders do not have enough
wetted surface area to allow liquid propane to turn to vapour. Put on a fresh
1 lb cylinder or hook-up to a 20 lb tank.
Excessive flare-ups/ uneven heat.| Improper preheating.
Excessive grease and ash build up in drip pan.| Preheat grill with both main
burners on high for 5 to 10 minutes.
Clean drip pan regularly. Do not line pan with aluminum foil. Refer to
cleaning instructions.
Burners burn with yellow flame, accompanied by the smell of gas.| Possible
spider web or other debris, or improper air shutter adjustment.| Thoroughly
clean burner by removing. See general maintenance instructions. Open air
shutter slightly according to combustion air adjustment instructions. (This
must be done by a qualified gas installer.)
Flames lift away from burner, accompanied by the smell of gas, and possibly
difficulties in lighting.| Improper air shutter adjustment.| Close air shutter
slightly according to combustion air adjustment instructions. (This must be
done by a qualified gas installer.)
Burner will not light with the igniter, but will light with a match.| Jet-fire
outlet is dirty or clogged.| Clean jet-fire outlet with a soft bristle brush.
Humming regulator.| Normal occurrence on hot days.| This is not a defect. It
is caused by internal vibrations in the regulator and does not affect the
performance or safety of the gas grill. Humming regulators will not be
replaced.
“Paint” appears to be peeling inside lid or hood.| Grease build-up on inside
surfaces.| This is not a defect. The lid and hood are stainless steel, and
will not peel. The peeling is caused by hardened grease, which dries into
paint-like shards that flake off. Regular cleaning will prevent this. See
cleaning instructions.
Burner output on “high” setting is too low. (Rumbling noise and fluttering
blue flame at burner surface.)| Lack of gas.
Supply hose is pinched.
Dirty or clogged orifice.
Spider webs or other matter in venturi tube.| Check gas level in propane
cylinder. Reposition supply hose as necessary. Clean burner orifice.
Clean out venturi tube.
CAUTION! During unpacking and assembly we recommended you wear work gloves and safety glasses for your protection. Although we make every effort to make the assembly process as problem free and safe as possible, it is characteristic of fabricated steel parts that the edges and corners mightbe sharp and could cause cuts if handled incorrectly.
Instructions
If necessary the axle cap can be tapped with a rubber mallet.
CAUTION! Ensure drip pan is
empty and clean before transporting grill in vertical position.

Based on the availability of parts, NAPOLEON may at its discretion discharge all obligations by providing a customer a prorated credit towards a new product. After the first year, with respect to this Limited Warranty NAPOLEON may, at its discretion, fully discharge all obligations with respect to this warranty by refunding to the original warranted purchaser the wholesale price of any warranted but defective part(s).
The bill of sale or copy will be required together with a serial number and a
model number when making any warranty claims from NAPOLEON.
NAPOLEON reserves the right to have its representative inspect any product or
part prior to honoring any warranty claim. You must contact NAPOLEON Customer
Service or an authorized NAPOLEON dealer to obtain the benefit of the warranty
coverage.
