SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
For proper lighting and performance of the burners keep the ports
clean. The burners will only operate in one position and must be
mounted correctly for safe operation.
Safety Practices to Avoid Personal
Injury
When properly cared for your Broilmaster Infrared Grill will give
safe, reliable service for many years. However, extreme care must
be used since the grill produces intense heat, which can increase
accident potential. When using this appliance, basic safety prac-
tices must be followed, including the following:
Clean the grill with caution. Avoid steam burns; do not use a wet
sponge or cloth to clean the grill while it is hot. Some cleaners
produce noxious fumes or can ignite if applied to a hot surface.
Insect Warning - Spiders and insects can nest in the burners of
this and any other grill, and cause the gas to flow from the front
of the burner. This is a very dangerous condition, which can cause
a fire to occur behind the valve panel, thereby damaging the grill
and making it unsafe to operate. Inspect the grill at least twice
per year.
Read this Installation Instructions and Owner's Manual care-
fully and completely before using your grill to reduce the risk
of fire, burn hazard or other injury.
Begin by ensuring proper assembly.
Be sure all grill controls are turned off and the grill is cool be-
fore using any type of aerosol cleaner on or around the grill. The
chemical that produces the spraying action could, in the presence
of heat, ignite or cause metal parts to corrode. Do not operate
the grill under unprotected combustible construction. Use only
in well ventilated areas. Do not use in buildings, garages, sheds,
breezeways or any enclosed areas.
Do not repair or replace any part of the grill unless specifically
recommended in this manual. All other service should be referred
to a qualified technician.
For personal safety, wear proper apparel. Loose fitting garments
or sleeves should never be worn while using this appliance. Some
synthetic fabrics are highly flammable and should not be worn
while cooking. Never let clothing, pot holders or other flammable
materials come in contact with or too close to any grate, burner
or hot surface until it has cooled. Fabric may ignite and result in
personal injury.
Keep the area surrounding the grill free from combustible ma-
terials, trash, or combustible fluids and vapors such as gasoline
or charcoal lighter fluid. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion
and ventilation air. Keep the back of the cart free and clear from
debris.
Use only dry pot holders: moist or damp pot holders on hot sur-
faces may cause burns from steam. Do not use a towel or bulky
cloth in place of pot holders. Do not let pot holders touch hot por-
tions of the grilling grids.
If the unit is stored indoors ensure that it is cool. If propane is
used, the cylinder must be unhooked and the propane cylinder
stored outside in a well-ventilated area, out of reach of children.
Only certain types of glass, heat-proof glass ceramic, earthenware,
or other glazed utensils are suitable for grill use. Use of these
types of materials may break with sudden temperature changes.
Never use the grill in windy conditions. If located in a consistent-
ly windy area (oceanfront, mountain top, etc) a windbreak will be
required. Always adhere to the specified clearance.
Grease is flammable. Let hot grease cool before attempting to
handle it. Avoid letting grease deposits collect in the bottom of
the grill. Clean often.
Keep any electrical supply cord, or the optional rotisserie motor
cord away from the heated areas of the grill. Do not use the grill
for cooking excessively fatty meats or products, which promote
flare-ups.
Do not use aluminum foil to line the grilling grids or grill bottom.
This can severely upset combustion airflow or trap excessive heat
in the control area. The result of this can be melted knobs, igniters
and increased chance of personal injury. The drip tray accessory
may be lined with aluminum foil.
OUTDOOR USE ONLY
Your Broilmaster Infrared Grill is designed for outdoor use
only and must not be installed in or on recreational vehicles
and/or boats.
Children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where
the grill is being used. Never allow them to sit, stand or play on or
around the grill at any time. Do not store items of interest to chil-
dren around or below the grill or in the cart. Never allow children
to crawl inside of a cart.
NEVER USEADENTED OR RUSTY PROPANE TANK.
SHUT OFF TANK WHEN NOT IN USE.
Do not heat unopened food containers as a build-up of pressure
may cause the container to burst.
Use a covered hand when opening the grill lid. Never lean over
an open grill.
When lighting a burner, always pay close attention to what you
are doing. Be certain you are depressing the igniter button. When
using the grill: do not touch the grilling grids, burner, warming
rack or immediate surrounding area as these areas become ex-
tremely hot and could cause burns.

INFRARED COOKING
General Overview
Helpful Hints
Broilmaster Infrared gas grills make it possible for you to
enjoy cooking outdoors quickly and effortlessly. In minutes,
you can enjoy steaks, hamburgers, poultry, pork chops, fish
and other foods. You can also cook more slowly if you wish.
Broilmaster's optional accessories are designed to enhance
your grill's versatility.
1. Use the proper tools. Long handled tongs, spatula,
knife, and mitts or a hot pad for handling hot items.
When turning or moving foods, use tongs or a spatula,
instead of a fork. Piercing the food with a fork allows
the natural juices and flavor to escape.
Infrared Searing Method
2. Monitor meat temperature. Bring large cuts of meat,
roads, or fowl to room temperature before cooking.
Smaller meat cuts such as hamburgers, hot dogs, or
small steaks may be cooked directly from the refrig-
erator. Note: Broilmaster does not recommend cooking
portion meats from a frozen state.
Searing is a process that seals juices in food by cooking
with intense heat for a short period of time. The juices stay
in the food where they belong and the outside gets coated
with flavorful smoke. For best results, follow these proce-
dures when cooking.
3. Start slowly. Infrared grilling is unlike other outdoor
cooking methods. It may take time to get used to the
fast cooking process. As a benchmark, foods which
generally cook in 20 minutes or less on conventional
grills cook in about one-half the conventional time on
a Broilmaster infrared grill. Please refer to the Infrared
Cooking Sample Times on page 21.
Searing Method
1. Follow the Burner Ignition procedures and operate the
grill for 5 minutes or until the burners glow uniformly.
2. Set the Burner Output Knob to HIGH and place the
food on the cooking grid for 1 - 2 minutes, or until food
lifts without sticking.
3. Turn the food and repeat Step 2.
4. Depending upon your taste, continue cooking on HIGH,
turning the food frequently, or adjust the Burner Output
Knob to a setting between LOW and "medium" and
continue cooking until the food is cooked to your satis-
faction. Turn as necessary (generally every one to three
minutes).
Indirect Cooking with a Broilmas-
ter Infrared Grill
Indirect cooking is a slower process used to prepare large
main dishes - roasts, hams, turkeys, etc. Foods are placed on
one side of the grill and the other side is lighted to produce
heat.
During the searing period, flashing might occur when juices
vaporize on contact with the cooking grid and burner sur-
faces. The flashes and smoke greatly enhance the flavor of
food.
To protect the infrared burner from damage, place a heavy-
duty disposable aluminum pan over the burner to catch
drippings. Note: Make sure the aluminum pan is the same
size or larger than the infrared burner. Any liquids that land
on the burner while it is not burning may cause it to break
when ignited.
The intense infrared energy generated by your Broilmas-
ter Grill has other advantages. For example, food is evenly
cooked throughout. Also, upon contact with the cooking
grids and burners, drippings vaporize into flavorful smoke
that cooks back into the food.
The pan may be filled part-way with liquid (water, mari-
nade, etc.) to enhance the moisture content of the meat, but
take special care not to spill anything onto the burner when
adding liquids or when removing the pan after cooking.
Flare-Up Control
NOTICE: NEVER DOUSE A FLARE-UP WITH
LIQUID. IT WILL DAMAGE THE BURNER AND
VOID THE WARRANTY!
To minimize flame flare-ups:
•
•
Trim excess fat from meat.
Reduce heat and reposition foods away from flare-ups
when the occur.
•
Prevent excess grease build up by periodically cleaning
cooking grids.

OPERATION - PROPANE & NATURAL GAS GRILLS
Operating Instructions
Before each use, inspect all hoses. If it is evident there is
excessive abrasion or wear, or the hose is cut, it must be
replaced prior to using your Broilmaster grill. Call your local
Broilmaster dealer for a replacement.
Checking for Gas Leaks
Check for gas leaks every time you connect your Broilmaster pro-
pane gas grill to a Propane gas cylinder, when a connected cylinder
has not been used recently, or when either a natural or propane grill
is being used for the first time.
Using the Ignitor
Caution: Do not use an open flame when checking for leaks.
Checking for leaks with an open flame may lead to a fire or
explosion, resulting in property damage or personal injury.
Caution: If a burner fails to light after 5 seconds, turn the
burner OFF for 5 minutes, to allow the gas to clear, then try
again.
To check for gas leaks:
Note: Each burner must be lit individually.
1. Use dish washing liquid and a little water to make a soapy
solution.
2. Turn OFF the knob on the control panel.
1. Turn knob on the grill CLOCKWISE to the OFF position.
2. Turn ON gas at the source.
3. With the grill lid open, push and turn the burner control knob
COUNTERCLOCKWISE to Hi.
4. Push and hold the ignitor button until the burner lights (ap-
proximately 5 seconds).
5. If a burner does not light, turn OFF all gas and refer to the
Troubleshooting section of this manual.
6. Repeat steps 3 through 5 for other burner.
3. Turn ON the gas at the supply or cylinder. A hissing sound
indicates a leak. Turn OFF the gas and repair the leak.
4. Apply the soapy water solution to all gas connections.
5. Look for bubbles. Bubbles indicate a leak.
6. If there are bubbles turn OFF the gas and repair the leak.
7. Turn the gas back ON and repeat the above procedures until
all leaks are repaired.
Using Matches to Light the Grill
Air Shutter Adjustment For R3B
Series Only
The burner (venturi) tube air shutter is preset at the factory so that
after five minutes the burner flames are blue with well defined
cones. If, after five minutes the flame is yellow, or there is a gap
between the burner and the flame, adjust the burner (venturi) tube
air shutter as follows:
Caution: If a burner fails to light after 5 seconds, turn the
burner OFF for 5 minutes, to allow the gas to clear, then try
again.
Note: Each burner must be lit individually.
1. Turn knob on the grill CLOCKWISE to the OFF position.
2. Turn ON gas at the source.
3. Open the grill lid.
1. Turn gas OFF and let the burner cool.
4. For Blue Flame grills, insert a burning long wooden match
through the lighter hole on the left side of the grill. For Infra-
red grills, insert the lighting stick with a long wooden match

OPERATION - PROPANE & NATURAL GAS GRILLS
Before Cooking
Before cooking on a grill for the first time, it should be
operated to burn off any oil residue from the manufacturing
process.
1. Raise the grill lid.
2. Light grill burners.
3. Burn on HI for ten minutes.
4. Close the lid and burn on HI for an additional ten
minutes.
5. Turn OFF gas. The grill is now ready for use.
Preheating
Before cooking on a gas grill, allow the grill to preheat on
HI for 5 minutes with the lid open.
This uses very little fuel and provides better flavor.

BLUE FLAME BURNER MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the Grill
Grease Tray
Empty periodically. Replacement tray liners can be
purchased at most supermarkets where disposable aluminum
baking pans are displayed.
Caution: To prevent injury, do not clean a hot grill.
Note: Do not use a commercial cleaner on the cooking
grids. Do not brush grids while they are hot.
For baked on residue use a BRASS (NOT STEEL) brush on
the cooking grid and other components.
Burner (Venturi) Tubes
The burner (venturi) tubes allow air and gas to mix prior
to burning, thus ensuring an efficient flame. Spiders or
other small insects may build webs or nests inside the
tubes obstructing air flow. Fire, or flashback, can occur,
in and/or around obstructed burner (venturi) tubes and can
cause damage to components beneath the grill or an unsafe
condition. To reduce risk, inspections and cleaning should
be performed at least twice monthly when spiders are active.
If the grill has been unused for an extended period of time
inspect the tubes before using the grill.
Burn Off
This process is much like that used in self-cleaning ovens
and is most efficient when completed after each use of the
grill.
Caution: Do not open the grill during the burn off
process. Opening the grill during the burn off process
may cause a sudden grease fire flare up that could burn
your face and arms. Wait until the grill has cooled before
opening.
Clean burner (venturi) tubes as follows:
1. Remove the cooking grids and briquet rack (R3B only).
2. Remove the burner from the grill.
3. Use a small flexible brush to remove any debris from the
burner (venturi) tube.
4. Flush with water.
5. Allow the burner (venturi) tube to dry before
reinstalling.
1. Turn gas knob to HI. Close lid and allow the grill to
burn for ten minutes, or until no smoke is present. Do
not allow the grill to burn for more than 30 minutes.
2. Turn gas knob and supply to OFF and allow the grill to
cool.
3. Wipe COOL grill with a damp cloth to remove soot.
Grill Bottom
6. Reinstall the burner, briquet rack and briquets and cooking
grids.
Periodically remove cooking grids and Char-Master Briquets
or flavor screen to clean the interior of the grill. Scrape off
baked on residue with a putty knife or brass brush and rinse
with water. Clean the bottom air holes with a small knife.
Exterior
Clean regularly with a solution of mild detergent and hot
water. Touch-up paint is available from your dealer. Broil-
master protective covers are recommended. Stainless steel
components can be easily cleaned with a spray-on stainless
steel cleaner found in most hardware stores.
Blue Flame Burner Maintenance
Visually inspect the burner flames with each use. Five minutes
after lighting, the flames should be blue and have well defined
cones. See Figure 20. See the troubleshooting section if the
flames are yellow or lift off the burner.
Char-Master Briquets
If the briquets did not come clean during burn off, after cool-
ing turn them over. The residue will burn off during warm-up
for the next use.
Stainless steel burners often turn reddish brown after use.
This does not effect the performance of the grill. When
cleaning the interior of the grill, remove the burners and clean
with a brass brush. Wash with water and a mild detergent.

INFRARED BURNER MAINTENANCE
surface in substantial amounts can cause the surface to break.
General Overview
Also, if the ceramic or interior of a burner becomes wet while
not in use, later operation of the burner can create steam,
which may produce enough pressure to crack the ceramic.
In addition, repeated soaking of the ceramic will cause it to
swell and expand. This expansion will create pressure on the
ceramic and cause it to crack and crumble.
Proper care, maintenance and cleaning will help ensure a
long life for your grill. Periodic cleaning will help avoid
accumulations of flammable grease and other debris.
Exterior
Clean regularly with a solution of mild detergent and hot
water. Touch-up paint is available from your dealer. Broil-
master protective covers are recommended. Stainless steel
components can be easily cleaned with a spray-on stainless
steel cleaner found in most hardware stores.
To prevent burner damage caused by liquids, please do the
following:
•
•
Never throw liquid into the grill to control a flare-up.
Never expose the burners to the risk of soaking by rain-
fall, sprinklers or otherwise. We recommend that the grill
be covered with a heavy duty vinyl cover at all times
when it is not in use. Do not attempt to operate your grill
in the open air while it is raining. Finally, using the grill,
close the hood as soon as the burners are off so that, if
it rains, the burners will not be exposed to direct rainfall
while the grill is cooling.
Protection of Burners
The burners of your grill are designed to provide a long life
of satisfactory performance. However, there are steps you
must take to prevent cracking of their ceramic surfaces,
which will cause the burners to malfunction. Following are
the most common causes of cracks and the steps you must
take to avoid them. Damage caused by failure to follow these
steps is not covered by your grill warranty.
•
If standing water is in the grill (because of exposure to
rainfall, etc.) examine the ceramic burner surfaces for evi-
dence of possible water soaking. If the ceramic appears to
be wet, remove the burners from the grill and turn them
upside down to empty any water from the burner box.
After draining all the water, place the burners indoors and
allow to dry thoroughly. Also, empty any water standing
in the grill's drip tray. Then, reinstall the burners. After
testing for gas leaks around all fittings, resume normal
use of the grill.
IMPACTWITH HARD OBJECTS - Never allow hard objects
to strike the ceramic. Take particular care when inserting or
removing the cooking grids and accessories into or from the
grill. If objects such as these fall onto the ceramic, it is likely
to crack the ceramic.
IMPAIRED VENTILATION OF HOT AIR FROM THE
GRILL - In order for the burners to function properly, hot air
created by the burners must have a way to escape the grill. If
the hot air is not allowed to escape, the burners may become
deprived of oxygen, causing them to backfire, especially if
the burner output is set at HIGH. If this occurs repeatedly,
the burners may crack. Never operate your grill with very
little or no open space at the cooking surface (the cooking
grids provide sufficient open space.
Cleaning
CAUTION: ALWAYS ALLOW THE GRILL TO COOL
BEFORE CLEANING. DO NOT LET LIQUIDS COME
IN CONTACT WITH THE BURNER SURFACE AT ANY
TIME.
Grease Tray
Examples:
Empty periodically. Replacement tray liners can be
purchased at most supermarkets where disposable aluminum
baking pans are displayed.
•
•
•
DO NOT operate the grill on "HIGH" with the hood
closed.
DO NOTuse accessories in combinations that cover more
than 75% of the cooking surface with solid metal.
DO NOT cover the entire surface with aluminum foil, a
large pan, etc.
Cooking Grids
Burn Off
This process is much like that used in self-cleaning ovens
and is most efficient when completed after each use of the
grill.
WATER AND OTHER LIQUIDS - When the burners are in
operation, their intense heat is normally sufficient to vaporize
any drippings, marinates or sauces that contact the surface as
a by-product of grilling. This does not include water thrown
into the grill to douse a flame. Cold liquid contacting a hot
Because of the high intensity of the Infrared burner, any
drippings and food particles that fall onto the burner sur-

INFRARED BURNER MAINTENANCE
face are immediately incinerated. However, some debris
and residue may remain. To remove this residue after
cooking, turn the grill on HIGH for 5-10 minutes with the
hood OPEN.
Standard Cleaning
The cooking grids may also be removed and cleaned with
a brass or stainless steel bristle brush and soapy solution.
Standard oven cleaners may be used for further cleaning.
Rinse the cooking grids thoroughly with clean water before
using.
Maintenance
The Broilmaster requires very little maintenance. However,
a periodic inspection of orifice openings and venturi inlets
to clear obstructions to gas flow is recommended.
Burner Head
To maintain the performance of the Infrared burner it is
important to operate the grill on HIGH for at least 5 minutes
after each use.
This procedure will leave some ash on the surface of the
burner head. If it accumulates in excessive amounts, it will
clog the small ports in the ceramic surface. To prevent this
blockage, remove the cooking grid and the burner screen,
and vacuum the burner surface with a low-suction vacuum
cleaner every six months, or as necessary. When completing
this procedure be careful not to scrape or strike the ceramic
with the suction device, which may damage the ceramic.
