Check Your Flame
End of Cooking Session
Your burner has been preset by the manufacturer for opti-
mal flame performance. A blue flame, possibly with a small
yellow tip, is the result of the optimal air and LP gas mix-
ture. (See diagram below)
· Never leave your LP gas grill unattended during use
or cleaning.
After each cooking session, close the hood and turn the
grill burners to the “high” position and burn for five minutes.
This procedure will burn off cooking residue, thus making
cleaning easier.
Yellow Tip
Turn off Your LP Gas Grill
How to turn off your LP gas grill
1) When you have finished using your grill, turn the grill
Control Knobs clockwise to the “Off” position.
2) Turn off the gas at the LP cylinder valve by turning the
handle clockwise until it stops.
3) Wait until the grill is cool before closing the grill hood
and putting on the cover.
Primarily Blue
Flame
The flame should be checked before the initial cooking ses-
sion and periodically throughout the grilling season, espe-
cially after storing the grill over a long period of time. If the
flame is significantly yellow in color, the amount of LP gas in
the air/LP gas mixture is not correct.This could be a result
of a blocked burner from grease drippings or from insects
building a nest inside the burner or burner opening. You
should follow the Burner Maintenance section of this
manual for cleaning the burners.
WARNING! Never store an LP gas cylinder
indoors (empty or filled). If storing the gas grill
indoors, disconnect LP gas cylinder and store it
outdoors out of the reach of children.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Grill Cooking
The burner heats up the Flavor Activator underneath the
grid, which in turn heats the food on the grill. The natural
food juices produced during cooking fall onto the hot Flavor
Activator below and vaporize. The subsequent rising
smoke bastes the food, as it travels upwards, giving it that
unique barbecued flavor.
· Always turn “off” the LP gas cylinder at the LP
cylinder valve, when not in use. Allow the grill to
cool before handling parts or cleaning.
· Do not move an LP gas grill when in use or hot.
· Never touch hot surfaces. Use heat resistant
gloves, long-handled tongs, or cooking mitts at all
times since grill will become very hot.
· Do not wear loose clothing (for example: hanging
shirt tails, clothing with frills, etc.) around a LP gas
grill while in use or hot.
· Never lean your body over the LP gas grill when
lighting it or while it is in use or hot.
R
R
Roasting Hood Cooking
The grill is equipped with a roasting hood giving the option
of cooking with hood closed to form an ‘oven’ for roasting
food, such as roasts of meat, whole chickens, etc. When
the hood is closed, a large amount of heat is trapped inside
the grill. Thus, it is IMPORTANT to make sure that the
burner is turned to the low position to prevent burning of
the food. Avoid lifting the hood unnecessarily as heat is
lost every time the hood is opened.
· Never douse the grill with water when its surfaces
are hot because it may cause grease to splatter or
the porcelain cooking grids and hood to break.
Regularly clean your LP gas grill between uses and espe-
cially after extended periods of storage. Ensure the grill
and its components are cool before cleaning. In order to
extend the life and maintain the condition of your grill, we
strongly recommend that the unit be covered when stored
outside for any length of time, especially during the winter
months.

Burner Maintenance
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
(Continued)
· Check the LP gas grill for gas leaks and Burner
obstructions before each use.
· Always turn off the LP gas cylinder at the
LP cylinder valve when not in use. Allow grill to
cool before handling parts or cleaning.
Most residue on the Cooking Grids can be cleaned with a
baking soda and water solution. For stubborn stains, use a
nonabrasive scouring powder. Do not use steel wool or
other like cleaning products on the porcelain coated sur-
faces. This will scratch the porcelain coating causing foods
to stick.
Provided that the Burner is operating correctly, in normal
usage, burning off the residue after cooking will keep the
burner clean. The Burner should be removed and cleaned
annually, or whenever heavy build-up is found, to ensure
that there are no signs of blockage (debris, insects) in either
the burner portholes, the primary air inlet, or the neck of the
burner. (See Burner cleaning instructions below)
To reduce the risk of a fire beneath the grill:
· Inspect and clean burner/venturi tubes for insects and
insect nests.
· Be sure burners are re-installed properly before using
grill.
· Inspect burners periodically, if large cracks or holes are
found, replace the Burner.
How to clean the Burner
1) Make sure the LP cylinder and grill control knobs are
turned off, and the grill has completely cooled.
2) Carefully remove Grease Cup, Cooking Grid, and Flavor
Activator™.
3) Remove the Burner, by first removing the Heat Shield
from the bottom of grill Bowl. Remove the two screws
securing the burner (also located underneath the grill
bowl.)
SPIDER ALERT!
4) Remove Burner from the grill.
Should you notice that you burner(s) are getting hard to light
or the flame is not as hot as it once was, Refer to the “How
to Clean your Burners” Section to remove any possible
obstructions.
5) Use a pipe cleaner to clear obstructions from the Burner
holes and inlet hole. Verify that there are no insects or
insect nests blocking the inlet hole. Normal wear and
corrosion may enlarge some holes, however, if large
cracks or holes are found the Burner should be replaced.
Note: It is normal for surface rust to be present on
the Burner.
Control Panel
Burner
6) If grill is to be stored, coat Burner lightly with cooking oil.
and Wrap in a protective cover to keep insects out.
7) After cleaning, reinstall Burner and other parts
removed back into grill. Note: When refitting the Burner,
be careful to check that it is positioned correctly. (Refer
to Step 4 of Assembly Instructions for reinstallation)
Venturi Tube
Spider Webs or Nest
Inside Venturi Tube
Valve
Spiders or small insects can build nests, webs and lay eggs
in the grills venturi tubes obstructing the flow of gas to the
burner. The backed-up gas can ignite behind the control
panel causing damage to the grill and even injury to the
operator. This is known as a “flashback”.
Clean Burner holes all around with small nail or wire.
Inlet holes
In order to prevent flashbacks, the burner(s) should be
removed from the grill and cleaned periodically, especially if
the grill has been stored for an extended period of time.
