Attaching LP Gas Cylinder  
The LP-gas supply cylinder to be used must be constructed and marked in  
accordance with the Specifications for LP-gas Cylinders of the US Department  
of Transportation (DOT) or the National Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA-B339,  
Cylinders, Spheres, and Tubes for the Transportation of dangerous Goods; and  
Commission. Only Cylinders with a listed overfilling prevention device (OPD) will  
have valve handles with three "lobes" (prongs). Only use 20-pound cylinders  
equipped with a cylinder connection device compatible with the connection for  
out door cooking appliances. The cylinder must include a collar to protect the  
cylinder valve. Blue gas cylinder should not be dropped or handled roughly! If  
the appliance is not in use, the gas cylinder must be disconnected. Storage of  
an appliance indoors is permissible only if the cylinder is disconnected and  
removed from the appliance. Cylinders must not be stored in a building, garage,  
or and enclosed area. Your cylinder must never be stored where temperatures  
can reach over 125˚F! Before connecting, be sure that there is no debris caught  
in the head of the gas cylinder, head of the regulator valve, or in the head of the  
burner and burner ports. Connect regulator valve and hand–tighten firmly.  
Disconnect the propane cylinder from the regulator valve when the grill is not  
in use. DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion air and ventilation air to the  
grill.  
Leak Test  
Safety Precautions:  
Test all gas connections for leaks before using your propane grill.  
Test for leaks every time you connect the gas supply.  
Do not smoke while checking for leaks.  
DANGER - Do not use an open flame to check for gas leaks. Be sure there  
are no sparks or open flames in the area while you check for leaks. This  
will result in a fire or explosion which can cause serious bodily injury or  
death, and damage to property.  
Test for leaks outdoors in a well ventilated area.  
1. Mix a couple tablespoons of liquid detergent with an equal amount of  
water. Use mild soap and water. DO NOT USE HOUSEHOLD CLEANING  
AGENTS.  
2. Be sure that all the Burner Control Knobs are in the OFF position and the  
gas cylinder is open.  
3. Use a clean paint brush to brush soapy solution onto connection between  
gas cylinder and Regulator orifice, and watch for bubbles.  
4. If bubbles form or if a bubble grows, there is a leak. Retighten connection  
and repeat steps (2) and (3).  
NOTE: If you cannot stop a leak, remove gas cylinder and check for damaged  
threads, dirt and debris at the connection and gas cylinder. Also check to see if  
anything is obstructing flow of gas at the connection and gas cylinder open-  
ings. Remove any obstruction that may be found and repeat leak test.

How To Use the George Foreman  
GBQ440 Propane Grill  
Lighting Burner with Ignitor:  
1. Open the Lid or raise the Side Shelf Burner Cover before lighting. Attempting  
to light the Grill burners with the Lid down or the Side Shelf Burner with the  
Cover closed may cause an explosion! Make sure there are no obstructions  
of airflow to the gas unit. Spiders and insects can nest within and clog the  
burner/venturi tube at the orifice. A clogged burner tube can lead to a fire  
beneath the appliance.  
2. All Burner Control Knobs must be in the OFF position.  
3. Turn on gas at the cylinder.  
4. Push down and turn the left-center and right-center Burner Control Knobs  
counterclockwise to HIGH.  
5. Press and hold the Ignitor Button to light the burners.  
6. If ignition does not occur in five seconds, turn all open Burner Control Knobs  
clockwise to the OFF position. Wait five minutes and repeat lighting proce-  
dure. If Ignition still does not occur, use a match through hole located on  
Right Side Panel of the Grill.  
Important: Light both CENTER burners FIRST! Once burner is lit, the burner next  
to it will light by turning its Burner Control Knob to HIGH. Never light the outside  
burners unless the two center burners are lit. Since the Side Shelf Burner has  
just one burner, no such sequential precautions exist.  
After lighting, please observe the burner flames; make sure all burner ports are  
lit. If burner flames go out during operation, immediately turn the gas off and  
open Lid to let the gas clear for about 5 minutes before re-lighting.  
Before cooking on this grill for the first time, light and set all four burners on  
HIGH and operate for about 15 minutes with the Lid closed. This will "heat clean"  
the internal parts and dissipate odor from the manufacturing processes and  
painted finish. DO NOT, however, operate the Side Shelf Burner with the Cover  
closed at any time!  
Grilling Instructions:  
1. Light burners and turn all Burner Control Knobs from HIGH to LOW. Make  
sure all burners are lit.  
2. To preheat the Grill: Close the Lid and preheat on HIGH for 8 minutes. After  
the 8 minute preheat period, carefully open the Lid and place food onto the  
Grill Plate. Cook until done, turning at least once halfway through cooking  
time for most foods. Adjust flames with Burner Control Knob as needed.  
CAUTION: Condensation may collect on the inside of the Lid when cook-  
ing. Use caution when opening Lid.  
3. When finished cooking, or when the propane cylinder is empty, turn all Burner  
Control Knobs to the OFF position and close the propane cylinder.  
4. Allow the Grill to cool before disassembling and cleaning.  
5. When cool, the Drip Tray may be removed and emptied. Be sure the liquid  
has cooled before removing Drip Tray.

Instructions For Cleaning  
CAUTION: Grill surfaces become hot during use. Allow all parts to cool completely  
before handling and cleaning.  
1. Turn the Burner Control Knobs to the OFF position and allow the Grill to cool  
before disassembling and cleaning.  
2
Remove and empty the Drip Tray.  
3. Wash the Cooking Grids, Heat Plates, Drip Pan and Drip Tray with warm, soapy  
water and, if necessary, a plastic scouring pad. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not  
use steel wool, coarse scouring pads or harsh or abrasive cleaners. If neces-  
sary, use a nylon bristle brush to loosen hardened food particles.  
4. Wash exterior parts with a soft sponge and warm clear water. Non-abrasive  
cleaners may also be used. Be sure to scrub with the grain direction of the  
stainless steel.  
5. Use a damp cloth to clean the inside of the Lid and Grill Body.  
Cleaning the Side Shelf Burner Assembly  
IMPORTANT: Clean the burner assembly prior to use after storing, at the beginning  
of the grilling season or an inactive period of one month. Spiders and insects like to  
build nests in burner tubes, especially during colder months. The nests can cause  
fires in burner tubes or under grill.  
In order to clean the inside of the burner tube, the Side Shelf Burner Assembly must  
be removed from the Grill.  
1. Make sure the gas cylinder has been turned OFF. Disconnect the gas line from  
the Regulator to the Burner then disconnect the Ignitor Wire from the Ignitor. DO  
NOT pull on the wire itself. Grasp the crimped end of the connector and gently  
pull straight down to disconnect.  
2. Raise the Side Shelf Burner cover. Remove the cast iron cooking grate and the  
brass diffuser from the center of the burner. Inspect the diffuser and clean it as  
needed.  
3. Remove the three mounting Bolts, Lock Washers and Flat Washers that secure  
the Side Shelf to the grill. Lift the Side Shelf up and away from the grill then set  
the assembly upside down on a clear, stable working surface.  
4. Two small screws, lock washers and flat washers are used to secure the burner  
to the Side Shelf. Remove the screws and washers. Lift the burner from the Side  
Shelf. Inspect both ends of the burner and clean it as needed.  
5. Carefully reassemble the Burner Assembly, making sure the mounting screws  
are tight, all parts have been properly reassembled and the Ignitor Wire has  
been reconnected to the Ignitor.  
6. Clean the outside of the Side Shelf Burner assembly with a paper towel or damp  
sponge  
Storing Your Propane Grill  
1. Cover Grill if stored outdoors. Store Grill indoors only if the propane cylinder is  
turned off and disconnected, removed from Grill and stored outdoors in a well-  
ventilated space and out of the reach of children.  
2. When removing Grill from storage, follow the Cleaning the Side Shelf Burner  
Assembly instructions before starting the Grill.  
Any service requiring disassembly other than the above cleaning must be performed  
by an authorized appliance repair technician. Do NOT ship gas cylinder if product  
needs service or repair.

or workmanship for a period of (1) year from the original purchase date. This product  
warranty covers only the original consumer purchaser of the product.  
Warranty Coverage: This warranty is void if the product has been damaged by accident  
in shipment, unreasonable use, misuse, neglect, improper service, commercial use,  
repairs by unauthorized personnel, normal wear and tear, improper assembly, installation  
or maintenance abuse or other causes not arising out of defects in materials or work-  
manship. This warranty is effective only if the product is purchased and operated in the  
USA, and does not extend to any units which have been used in violation of written

Implied Warranties: ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES WHICH THE PURCHASER MAY HAVE  
ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO ONE (1) YEAR FROM THE DATE OF PURCHASE. Some  
states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation  
may not apply to you.  
Warranty Performance: During the above One (1) Year Warranty period, a product with a  
defect will be either repaired or replaced with a reconditioned comparable model (at our  
option) when the product is returned to the Repair Center. The repaired or replacement
