General Safety Instructions

1. For Household Outdoor Use Only – DO NOT use indoors or in any type of enclosed area such as a garage, shed, or breezeway. Keep clear of trees and shrubs. The grills are not intended for installation in or on recreational vehicles, portable trailers, boats, or any other moving installation.

Not for commercial use.

2. The area surrounding your new grill should be kept clean and free from flammable liquids and other combustible materials such as mops, rags, or brooms as well as solvents, cleaning fluids, and gasoline.

3. To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury from breathing toxic fumes and from explosion and fire as a result of leaking gas, use only outdoors in an open area with good ventilation. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.

4. Never use the grill in windy conditions. If located in a consistently windy area (oceanfront, mountaintop, etc.) a wind break will be required. Always adhere to the specified clearances listed.

5. Do not leave the grill unattended while cooking.

6. Do not use natural gas in a unit designed for liquid propane gas or vice versa.

7. Do not use fuel such as charcoal briquettes in a gas grill.

8. Keep children and pets away from hot grill. DO NOT allow children to use or play near the grill.

9. Never attempt to repair or replace any part of the grill yourself unless specifically recommended in this manual. All other services should be performed by a qualified service technician.

10. Never lean over an open grill. Do not place clothing or other flammable material on or near the grill.

Do not wear loose-fitting clothes or long sleeves while using the grill as some fabrics can be highly flammable.

11. Have an ABC fire extinguisher accessible. Never attempt to extinguish a grease fire with water or other liquids.

12. Never use aluminum foil to line the grill racks or the drip trays, this can alter airflow for proper combustion and also build up heat in the control area causing the knobs and igniter to melt.

13. When using the grill, do not touch the grill rack, burner grate, or immediate surroundings as these areas become extremely hot and can cause burns. Always use a covered hand when opening the grill hood and only do so slowly to allow heat and steam to escape.

14. DO NOT allow grease or other hot material dripping from the grill onto valve, hose or regulator. Turn off gas supply immediately. After the grill has cooled, determine the cause and correct it. After cleaning the valve, hose, and regulator, perform a leak test before continuing use.

15. Do not heat any unopened glass or metal container of food on the grill. Pressure may build up and cause the container to burst, possibly resulting in serious personal injury or damage to the grill.

16. Keep any electrical supply cords away from water or heated surfaces. Electrical cords should be placed away from walkways to avoid tripping hazard.

17. Keep gas supply lines as short as possible.

18. Never move the grill when hot.

19. DO NOT use while under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

4

20. DO NOT store a spare gas cylinder under or near your grill.

21. DO NOT grill without the drip tray in place, hot grease could leak downward and produce a fire or an explosion. Drip tray should be pushed all the way to the rack located just under the grill.

22. Grease is extremely flammable. Let hot grease cool down before attempting to handle or dispose of it. The drip tray should be cleaned and free of grease on a regular basis.

23. In the event that a burner goes out, turn burner knobs to the full OFF position, fully open the grill hood and let it air out. Do not attempt to use the grill until the gas has had time to dissipate.

24. Do not use grill until leak check has been made.

25. Turn off the cylinder valve when your grill is not in use.

26. Ensure the control knobs are in the “OFF” position when not in use.

27. DO NOT install in any type of combustible construction material.

28. Grills are made to hang in place and are not to be sitting on a shelf as this will not allow the Grill to properly vent, and this can cause fire.

29. Proper cross venting in any cabinet the grill is placed into is required to prevent gas/ heat build up that can cause a fire and / or serious bodily and structure damage.

CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 - WARNING: The burning of gas cooking fuels generates some byproducts which are on the list of substances which are known by the State of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm. California law requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances. To minimize exposure to these substances, always operate this unit according to the Use and Care Manual, ensuring you provide good ventilation when cooking with gas.

Location For Grill

Check your local building codes for the proper method of installation. In the absence of local codes, this unit should be installed in accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code No. Z223.1-1998 USA or

CAN/CGA-B149.1/.2 Natural Gas/Propane Code (Canada) latest edition or the National Electrical Code

ANSI/NFPA No. 70 or the Canadian Electrical Code CSA C22.1, 1990 or latest version.

- Before installing built-in grills in enclosures, copy all product information such as model number, serial number and type of grill (e.g. natural gas or LP) and store information in a safe place.

- If the grill is installed by a professional installer or technician, be sure that he shows you where your gas supply shut-off is located. All gas lines must have a shut-off that is readily and easily accessible.

If you smell gas, check for gas leaks immediately. Check only with a soap and water solution. Never check for gas leaks with an open flame.

- Use grill, as purchased, only with LP (propane) gas and the regulator / valve assembly supplied. A conversion kit must be purchased for use with natural gas.

- This grill is safety certified for use in the United States and/or Canada only. Do not modify for use in any other location. Modification will result in a safety hazard.

Notice:

We strongly recommend professional installation and hookup of your Gas BBQ grill. These instructions will provide you with the measurements necessary for you or your builder to construct a masonry structure to house your outdoor gas grill.

IMPORTANT:

Gas fittings, regulator, and installer supplied shut-off valves must be easily accessible.

Location

Install the grill only in a well ventilated area. Never install the grill in a building, garage, breezeway, shed or other such enclosed areas without an approved ventilation system. During heavy use, the grill will produce a lot of smoke. Ensure there is adequate area for it to dissipate.

Clearance

- CLEARANCE FOR NON-COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION: A minimum of 8.5" (217mm) clearance from the back of the grill is needed for the purpose of opening the hood fully. It is desirable to allow at least 2"(50.8mm) side clearance to non-combustible construction above the cooking surface for counter space. If you wish to use the rotisserie option, the space is essential for motor and skewer clearance. The grill can be placed directly adjacent to non-combustible construction below the cooking surface. The grill exhausts combustion products and cooking greases to the back. Never locate the grill where this exhaust will be difficult to clean.

- CLEARANCE FOR COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION: A Minimum of 24" (609.6mm) from the sides and a minimum of 24" (609.6mm) from the back must be maintained from the grill above and below the cooking surface to adjacent vertical combustible construction.

11

For Built-in Installations

A Built-in Grill is designed for easy installation into masonry enclosures. For non-combustible applications, the grill drops into the opening ( as shown in cut-out detail drawing - Fig. A ) above or below depending on space, and hangs from its counter top trim. A deck is not required to support it from the bottom. It is recommended that the enclosure have ventilation vents to prevent gas build-up in the event of a leak. The deck ledges and counter should be flat and level in reference to the floor. If your grill is equipped with a rotisserie, electrical service should be provided. If your grill is equipped with a rotisserie, a minimum of 24" (609.6mm) of clearance is needed on each side of the grill for the motor and skewer.

LP TANK STORAGE AREA MUST BE ISOLATED FROM GRILL AND MUST BE VENTED.

Pre-Operation Leak Testing

DANGER

1. Do not insert any tool into the valve outlet or safety relief valve. You may damage the valve and cause a leak. Leaking propane may result in explosion, fire, severe personal injury, or death.

2. If a leak is detected at any time or you cannot stop a gas leak, immediately close pipeline valve and call LP gas supplier or you fire department!

3. Check all gas supply fittings before each use and each time the gas supply cylinder is connected to the regulator. Have a qualified service technician leak test the grill any time a part of the gas system is replaced.

WARNING

Never attempt to attach this grill to the self-contained LP gas system. Do not use grill until leak testing has been performed.

Before Testing

DO NOT smoke while leak testing. Extinguish all open flames. Never leak test with an open flame. Mix a solution of equal parts mild detergent or liquid soap and water.

Leak Testing Valves, Hose and Regulator

1. Turn all grill control knobs to OFF.

2. Be sure the hose is tightly connected to LP tank.

3. Completely open LP tank valve by turning cylinder valve knob counterclockwise (right to left). If you hear a rushing sound, turn gas off immediately. There is a major leak at the connection. Correct before proceeding by calling franchiser for replacement

4. Brush soapy solution onto areas where bubbles are shown in LP tank (see picture).

5. If “growing” bubbles appear, there is a leak. Close

LP tank valve immediately and retighten connections.

If leaks cannot be stopped do not try to repair. Call franchiser for replacement.

6. Always close LP tank valve after performing leak test by turning cylinder valve knob clockwise.

NOTE:

When leak testing this appliance, make sure to test and tighten all loose connections, including the side burner. A slight leak in the system can result in a low flame, or a hazardous condition. Most LP gas tanks now come equipped with a leak detector mechanism internal to the tank; when gas is allowed to escape rapidly, it shuts off the gas supply. A leak may significantly reduce the gas flow making the grill difficult to light or causing low flames.

Operations and Features

Before cooking with your grill for the first time, burn in the grill to get rid of any odors or debris by operating at “HIGH” setting with hood closed for no more than 5 minutes.

Since this is a high temperature grill, closing the hood will cause heat to build up and any excessive flare-ups will cause internal damage to the grill (knobs, igniter, etc.).

Instruction for Rotisserie Assembly

WARNING:

Never stand with your head directly over the Grill when preparing to light the Rotisserie burner, to prevent possible bodily injury.

The rotisserie is mostly used to cook large pieces of meat and poultry to assure slow, even cooking. The constant turning provides a self-basting action, making food cooked on a rotisserie exceptionally moist and juicy. Rotisserie cooking generally requires 1 ½ to 4½ hrs to cook depending on the size and type of meat being cooked. You can have rotisserie cooking with indirect heat with infrared rotisserie burner.

Preferred by professional chefs over other methods, the intense heat is ideal for searing in the natural juices and nutrients found in quality meats.

For successful rotisserie cooking, the meat should be centered and balanced as evenly as possible on the spit rod to avoid overworking the rotisserie motor.

1. Attach Motor Bracket Assembly to the side of the barbecue frame (can be mounted on either left or the right side of the frame) using two screws and two nuts.

2. Insert Rotisserie Motor onto Motor Bracket Assembly.

3. Assemble Key Washer, Counter-balance and handle to Spit Rod. Slide Shaft Collar with long end towards handle.

4. Slide Prong Forks with the prongs facing away from the handle onto the Spit Rod. Place food on to Spit Rod and secure with the second Prong Forks. Secure with thumbscrews. Place Spit Rod assembly and position into Motor. Secure position with thumbscrew. It may be necessary to secure any loose portions with butcher's string. Never use nylon or plastic string as it will melt and ruin the food. Be very careful when placing meat on spit rod and prong forks!

5. Once the food is secured, place the sharp end of the Spit Rod onto the motor, and then rest the

Spit Rod on the supports at either side of the grill.

6. Ensure that all Bolts are tightened securely.

7. When the rotisserie is being operated exclusively, it is strongly recommended that a pan be placed on the grilling grids, beneath the food to catch the meat drippings. This will prevent excessive build up of drippings on the grids and facilitate cleaning.

NOTE:

Close hood carefully and align Motor Bracket and Shaft Mounting Bracket so that Rotisserie Rod is in between the hood openings.

WARNING:

Never operate Rotisserie Burner with main (other) burner(s) “ON”. Use either the

Rotisserie Burner by itself or the main burners by themselves, but never use both at the same time. Warming Rack must be removed when Rotisserie Burner is ON.

Electrical Grounding Instructions:

The rotisserie motor is equipped with a three-prong grounding plug for your protection against electric shock. This plug must be inserted directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.

The rotisserie motor must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, in accordance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70-1990 or Canadian

Electrical Code, CSA C22.1

.

Do not use an extension cord to supply power to your grill. Such use may result in fire, electrical shock or other personal injury. Do not install a fuse in the neutral or ground circuit. A fuse in the neutral or ground circuit may result in an electrical shock hazard. Do not ground this appliance to a gas supply pipe or hot water pipe.

WARNING:

Always observe safe food-handling and safe food-preparation practices when using this Grill, to prevent food-borne illnesses.

Preparing Food for the Grill

- Always cook foods adequately. Undercooked foods can retain bacteria, especially if thawed or exposed to warm conditions prior to cooking.

- Always use a meat thermometer to confirm that foods have been fully cooked.

- Always use separate plates and utensils for the handling of raw food. Never place raw food and cooked food on the same plate, and never place cooked food on a plate that was used for handling raw food.

25

- Always carefully wash all plates and utensils used to handle raw food before using them to handle cooked food.

- Always wash all vegetables, seafood and poultry before cooking.

- Always leave uncooked foods in the refrigerator until you are ready to start cooking.

- Always marinate meat in the refrigerator. Dispose of the excess marinade, and never reuse it.

- Always preheat your Grill for 5 to 10 minutes before cooking, and clean off all grease and food residue before using the cooking grids.

Grilling Tips:

- If you pre-cook meat or poultry, do so immediately before grilling.

- Never defrost meat at room temperature or on a countertop.

- Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours of taking food off the grill.

- Never let the grease tray boil dry. That could be hazardous, as grease from fatty foods that have collected in the tray could ignite and possibly cause bodily injury or property damage.

- Use a meat thermometer to be sure food has reached a safe internal temperature.

- Always trim excess fat from your foods to reduce the occurrence of flare-ups during cooking.

- Apply a light coating of cooking oil to the cooking grids before grilling to prevent foods from sticking.

- Cook similar portion sizes together, so that they all cook evenly.

- Use tongs to turn foods on the Grill.

- Never pierce foods while they are cooking on the Grill, as this will dry them out.

- Turn foods infrequently. Some chefs say that a good steak should never be turned more than once.

- Apply sugar-based sauces such as commercial barbecue sauces only during the latter stages of cooking, to prevent charring.

- Soak the string you use to tie up roasts and poultry on the Rotisserie spit to protect it from burning.

- Use a disposable aluminum tray filled with water, fruit juice, wine or a marinade to add extra flavor and moisture to slow-cooked foods like roasts, whole chickens, turkeys or ducks.

- The US Department of Agriculture recommends the minimum temperature be reached for the following food items:

Chops ..................................... 145 degrees F (62.8° C)

Ground Meat .......................... 160 degrees F (71° C)

Pork ........................................ 160 degrees F (71° C)

Poultry ................................... 180 degrees F (82° C)

Roasts .................................... 145 degrees F (62.8° C)

Seafood .................................. 140 degrees F (60° C)

Vegetables ............................. 145 degrees F (62.8° C)

Controlling Flare-ups

Flare-ups are a part of cooking meats on a gas grill. This adds to the unique flavor of cooking on a gas grill. Excessive flare-ups resulting from the build-up of grease in the bottom of the grill can over-cook the food and cause a dangerous situation for you and your grill. If this should occur, DO NOT pour water onto the flames, which can cause the grease to splatter and could result in serious burns or bodily harm.

If grease fire occurs, close the hood and turn off the main burners until the grease burns out. Use caution when opening the hood as sudden flare-ups may occur.

26

To Minimize Flare-ups:

- Trim excess fat from meats prior to cooking.

- Cook meats with high fat contents (chicken or pork) on Low settings or indirectly.

- Ensure that your grill is on level ground and the grease is allowed to evacuate the grill through the drain hole.

Indirect Cooking

Indirect cooking is the process of cooking your food without the heat source being directly under your food. You can sear meats over a high flame on one side of the grill while slow cooking a roast on the other (unlit) side of the grill. Cooking in this manner is much the same as cooking in your oven and is generally used for larger cuts of meats such as roasts, chickens or turkeys, but can also be used for cooking foods that are prone to flare ups. Cooking in this method with lower temperatures and slower cooking times will result in tender foods every time you grill.

27

Care & Maintenance

CAUTION:

All cleaning and maintenance should be done only when grill is cool & with the fuel supply turned off at the cylinder. If your grill is set up for use with Natural Gas, turn off gas supply at the system manual shut off valve.

DRIP TRAY

The drip tray located below the grill should be cleaned periodically to prevent heavy buildup of debris.

NOTE:

Allow the drip tray to cool before attempting to clean.

IMPORTANT:

Do not leave the grill outside during inclement weather unless it is covered (cover sold separately). Rain water can collect inside the grill, the grill cart or the drip tray if left uncovered. If the drip tray is not cleaned after use and the grill is left uncovered, the drip tray will fill with water causing grease and water to spill into the grill cart. We recommend cleaning and storing the drip tray after every use.

COOKING GRATES

The cooking grates can be cleaned immediately after cooking is completed and after turning off the grill.

Wear a barbecue mitt and scrub the cooking grates with a damp cloth. If the grill is allowed to cool down, cleaning the grates will be easier if removed from the grill and cleaned with a mild detergent.

FLAME TAMERS

Washing the flame tamers after every use is not necessary but periodically it is suggested you wash them in a soap and warm water solution. Use a wire brush to remove stubborn burned on cooking residue. Dry the flame tamers & heat shields thoroughly before you reinstall them in the cooking insert.

BURNERS

IMPORTANT:

Gas control knobs should be in the ‘OFF” position and fuel line should be disconnected.

To reduce the chance of FLASHBACK, the procedure below should be followed at least once a month or when your grill has not been used for an extended period of time.

1. Remove burners from grill by carefully lifting each burner up and away from gas valve orifice. Wire brush entire outer surface of burner to remove food debris and dirt. Clean any clogged ports with a stiff wire such as an open paper clip.

2. Inspect the burner for damage (cracks or holes) and if such damage is found, order and install a new burner. Only replace burners with a manufacturer supplied burner.

3. After installation, check to insure that gas valve orifices are correctly placed inside ends of burner tubes.

Also check position of spark electrode.

STAINLESS STEEL

After initial usage, areas of the grill may discolor from the intense heat given off by the burners. This is normal. Purchase a mild stainless steel cleaner and rub in the direction of the grain of the metal. Specks of grease can gather on the surface of the stainless steel and bake on to the surface and give a worn

28

appearance. For removal, use a non-abrasive oven cleaner in conjunction with a stainless cleaner. Never use harsh chemical to clean stainless steel surfaces. Be sure to keep pool cleaning chemicals away from your grill. They will permanently discolor stainless steel surfaces.

NOTE:

Always scrub in the direction of the grain.

ANNUAL CLEANING OF GRILL HOUSING

Burning-off the grill after every cookout will keep it ready for instant use, however, once a year you should give the entire grill a thorough cleaning to keep it in top operating condition.

1. Shut off gas supply at source and disconnects fuel line. Protect fuel line fitting.

2. Remove and clean the cooking grids, flame tamers and burners.

3. Remove warming rack and wash with mild detergent and warm water.

4. Cover the gas valve orifices with a piece of aluminum foil.

5. Brush the inside and bottom of the grill with a stiff wire brush, and wash down with a mild soap and warm water solution. Wash thoroughly and let dry.

6. Remove aluminum foil from orifices and check orifices for obstruction.

7. Check electrode.

8. Reinstall flame tamers, cooking grids, and warming rack.

9. Reconnect to gas source and observe burner flame for correct operation.

IMPORTANT:

You should NOT line the bottom of the grill housing with aluminum foil, sand or any other grease absorbent substance. Grease will not be able to drip into the drip tray and a grease fire may occur.

MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES

1. Keep outdoor cooking gas appliance area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids.

2. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.

3. Keep the ventilation opening(s) of the cylinder enclosure free and clear from debris.

4. Visually check burner flames. Burner flames should be blue and stable with no yellow tips, excessive noise, or lifting. If any of these conditions exist call our customer service line.

5. Clean outdoor cooking gas appliance, including special surfaces, with recommended cleaning agents, if necessary.

6. Check and clean burner for insects and insect nests. A clogged tube can lead to a fire beneath the grill.
