7. Retest with solution.
8. If you continue to see bubbles, replace the cylinder.
Lighting Your Grill
DANGER:
Failure to open lid while igniting the grill’s burners or not waiting five minutes to allow gas to clear if the grill does not light, may result in an explosion, which could cause serious bodily injury or death.
WARNING:
Never stand with your head directly over the grill when preparing to light the main burners, to prevent possible bodily injury.
Lighting Main Burner
GPC2700JC
Owner’s Manual
12
WARNING:
Attempting to light the burner with the lid closed may cause an explosion. Make sure there are no obstructions of airflow to the gas unit. Spiders and insects can nest and clog the burner/venturi tube at the orifice. A clogged burner tube can lead to a fire beneath the appliance.
2. Make sure all control knobs are in “OFF” position.
3. Turn on gas source or tank valve.
4. Ignite only the burners you wish to use. Push and turn the knob to “HIGH” then press the igniter button immediately. The burner should light. If the burner does not light, repeat 2 or 3 times.
5. If ignition does NOT occur in 5 second turn the burner controls to OFF, wait 5 minutes, and repeat the lighting procedure.
6. To ignite remaining burners, repeat same procedure.
7. Adjust valve knob(s) to desired cooking temperature.
Using the Lighting Stick to Light the Main Burners
1. Insert a match into the end of lighting stick. Light the match.
2. Once lit, place the flame through the hole on grill body to reach the burner ports.
(As the fig shown on right side).
3. Press the valve knob and rotate it counter clockwise to the ‘’HIGH’’ position.
The burner should light immediately. If more than one burner is desired, use the carry over channel to light each adjacent burner by pressing the valve knob and rotate it counter –clockwise to the ‘’HIGH’’ position, repeat the same procedure for each adjacent burner and continue in sequence until all desired burners are lit.
4. Adjust burners to the desired cooking temperature.
Precautions:
1. After lighting, observe the burner flame. Make sure all burner ports are lit.
2. If the burner flame goes out during operation, immediately turn the gas “OFF”. Open lid to let the gas clear for at least 5 minutes before re-lighting.
3. Before cooking on the grill for the first time and operate the grill for approximately 15 minutes with the lid closed and the gas turned on “HIGH”. This will “heat clean” the internal parts, dissipate odor from the manufacturing process and painted finish.
4. Clean the grill after each use. DO NOT use abrasive or flammable cleaners. This may damage parts of the grill and cause a fire.
2 in.

Observe flame height when lit: Flame should be a blue/yellow color between
1 to 2 inches high.
Confirm that the burner is properly lit and that the flame pattern is as desired (see fig. A, B and C below for the proper flame patterns). If the flame pattern is other than normal, consult the Troubleshooting on page 20 for corrective action.
FIG. A FIG. B FIG. C
Normal: Soft blue flames with yellow tips between I inch - 2 inches high.
Poor combustion: Wavy, yellow flames- too little air.
Out of adjustment: Noisy hard blue flames – too much air.
Flare-ups
“Flare-ups” sometimes occur when food drippings fall onto the hot heat distribution plate or burners and ignite. Some flaring is normal and desirable as it helps impart the unique flavors associated with grilled foods. Controlling the intensity of the flare-ups is necessary, however, in order to avoid burned or unevenly cooked foods and to prevent the possibility of accidental fire.
