Never connect your gas grill to an LP Gas tank that exceeds this capacity. A tank of approximately 12 inches in diameter by 18-1/2 inches high is the maximum size LP Gas tank to use. You must use an "OPD" gas tank which offers a listed Overfill Prevention Device. This safety feature prevents tank from being overfilled which can cause malfunction of LP Gas tank, regulator and/or grill. The LP Gas tank must be constructed and marked in accordance with the Specifications for LP-Gas Cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportation (D.O.T.) or the National Standard of Canada, CAN/ CSA-B339, Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for Transportation of Dangerous Goods; and Commission, as applicable. The LP Gas tank must have a shutoff valve, terminating in an LP Gas supply tank valve outlet, that is compatible with a Type 1 tank connection device. The LP Gas tank must also have a safety relief device that has a direct connection with the vapor space of the tank. The tank supply system must be arranged for vapor withdrawal. The LP Gas tank used must have a collar to protect the tank valve. Never connect an unregulated LP gas tank to your gas grill. The gas regulator assembly supplied with your gas grill Is adjusted to have an outlet pressure of 11" water column (W.C.) for connection to an LP gas tank. Only use the regulator and hose assembly supplied with your gas grill. Replacement regulators and hose assemblies must be those specified by the Manufacturer. Have your LP Gas dealer check the release valve after every filling to ensure it remains free of defects. Always keep LP Gas tank in upright position. Do not subject the LP Gas tank to excessive heat. Never store an LP Gas tank indoors. If you store your gas grill in the garage always disconnect the LP Gas tank first and store it safely outside. LP Gas tanks must be stored outdoors in a weli- ventilated area and out of the reach of chiidren. Disconnected LP Gas tanks must not be stored in a building, garage or any other enciosed area. The regulator and hose assembly can be seen after opening the doors (if applicable) and must be inspected before each use of the grill. If there is excessive abrasion or wear or if the hose is cut, it must be replaced prior to using the grill again. Never light your gas grill with the lid closed or before checking to ensure the burner tubes are fully seated over the gas valve orifices. Never allow children to operate your grill. Do not allow children or pets to play near your grill. 12 [] Use of alcohol or drugs may impair the ability to assemble and operate the appliance. Keep fire extinguisher readily accessible. In the event of a oil/grease fire, do not attempt to extinguish with water. Use type B extinguisher or smother with dirt, sand or baking soda. In the event of rain, cover the grill and turn off the burner and gas supply. Use your grill on a level, stable surface in an area clear of combustible materials. Do not leave grill unattended when in use. Do not move the appliance when in use. Allow the grill to cool before moving or storing. Do not use your grill as a heater. This grill Is not intended to be installed in or on recreational vehicles and/or boats. Do not store a spare LP-Gas tank under or near this appliance. Never fill the tank beyond 80 percent full; and . If the information in "(a)" and "(b)" is not followed exactly, a fire causing death or serious injury may occur. e Use your grill at least 3 feet away from any wall or surface. Use your grill at least 3 feet away from combustible objects that can melt or catch fire (such as vinyl or wood siding, fences and overhangs) or sources of ignition including pilot lights on water heaters and live electrical appliances. e Never use your gas grill in a garage, porch, shed, breezeway or any other enclosed area. e Never obstruct the flow of ventilation air around your gas grill housing.

BEFORE rotisserie cooking you will need to remove the Cooking Grid(s) and possibly the Ceramic Savor Plates™ from your grill. When rotisserie cooking place a Cooking Pan under the food to be cooked. This will capture the drippings and keep your grill clean of excess grease which could cause a fire. Use caution when moving a Cooking Pan containing hot oils. 19 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE Proper care and maintenance will keep your grill in top operating condition and prolong its life. Follow these cleaning procedures on a timely basis and your grill will stay clean and operate with minimum effort. CAUTION: Be sure your grill is OFF and cool before cleaning. Cleaning The Cooking Grids [] Before initial use, and periodically, wash your Cooking Grids in a mild soap and warm water solution. You can use a wash cloth or vegetable brush to clean your Cooking Grids. Cleaning The Ceramic Savor Plates ™ [1 Periodically you should wash the Ceramic Savor Plates™ in a soap and warm water solution. Use a vegetable brush to remove stubborn burnt-on cooking residue. Dry the Ceramic Savor Plates™ thoroughly before you reinstall them into the cooking bowl. Cleaning The Grease Tray and Receptacle [] To reduce the chance of fire, the Grease Draining Tray and Grease Receptacle (some models) should be visually inspected before each grill use. Remove any grease and wash Grease Tray and Receptacle with a mild soap and warm water solution. Cleaning the Inside of the Grill Lid [] Grease can have a tendency to build up on the inside of the Grill Lid and could drip onto deck or patio when the lid is opened. Visually inspect the inside of the Grill Lid before each grill use. Remove any grease and wash with a mild soap and warm water solution. Annual Cleaning of The Grill Interior [] Burning-off excess food after every cookout will Keep it ready for instant use. However, at least every 3 months you must give the entire grill a thorough cleaning to minimize your risk of grease fire and keep the grill in top shape. Follow these steps: 1. Turn all Burner Valves to the full OFF position. 2. Turn the LP gas tank valve to the full OFF position. For Natural Gas shut off valve. 3. Disconnect the regulator from the gas tank. Inspect the hose with regulator assembly for cracking, cuts or any other damage, and replace as neccessary. Refer to the Parts List in this Operator's Manual. 4. Remove and clean the Ceramic Savor Pilates M, Cooking Grids, Cooking Rack and Grill Burners. 5. Cover each Gas Valve Orifice with aluminum foil. 6. Brush the inside and bottom of the grill with a fiber pad or nylon brush and wash with a mild soap and warm water solution. Rinse thoroughly and let dry. 7. Remove aluminum foil from Orifices and check each Orifice for obstruction. 8. Check each Spark Electrode, adjusting as needed. The space between the Spark Electrode Tip and Spark Receiver should be approximately 3/16". 9. Replace the Burners and adjust the Gas Collector Box. The edge of the collector box should be overlapping the Burner Port. 20 10. Replace Ceramic Savor Plates™ and Cooking Grids. 11. Reconnect the gas source and observe the Burner flame for correct operation. Cleaning Exterior Surfaces: Before initial use, and periodically thereafter, we suggest you wash your grill using a mild soap and warm water solution. You can use a wash cloth or sponge for this process. Do not use a stiff wire or brass brush. These will scratch stainless steel and chip painted surfaces (varies by model) during the cleaning process. Cleaning Exterior Stainless Steel Surfaces: Weathering and extreme heat can cause exterior stainless steel surfaces to turn tan in color. Machine oils used in the manufacturing process of stainless steel can also cause this tanning color. After remov- ing any protective PVC film from the Grill Lid and Control Panel use a Stainless Steel Cleaner to polish the stainless steel surfaces of your grill. Never use abrasive cleaners or scrubbers because they will scratch and damage your grill. Follow these steps for the best results. 1. Turn the LP Gas tank valve (clockwise) to the full OFF position. Disconnect the regulator and hose assembly from LP Gas tank. For Natural Gas shut off valve and disconnect the NG regulator and hose from valve. Cover exposed gas fitting with aluminum foil. 2. Remove dirt or grease using a soft cloth and polish stainless surfaces. Wipe with a soft cloth. 3. Remove aluminum foil from exposed gas fitting and allow grill to air dry before attaching the regulator and hose to your LP Gas tank, or attaching the regulator and hose to Natural Gas valve. Failure to comply with these instructions may result in a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in injury. Keep grill area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids. Do not obstruct the flow of air for combustion and ventilation. Keep the ventilation openings of the tank enclosure cabinet free and clear of debris. Visually check burner flames occasionally to ensure proper flame pattern as shown below.

Refer to Figure 1 and perform one of these three cleaning methods: [| METHOD 1: Bend a stiff wire or wire coat hanger into a small hook as shown and run the hook through the Burner Tube and inside the Burner several times to remove debris. — ? [] METHOD 2: Use a bottle brush with a flexible handle and run the brush through the Burner Tube and inside the Burner several times to remove any debris. [1] METHOD 3: Use an air hose to force air through each Burner Tube. The forced air should pass debris or obstructions through the Burner and out the Ports. Figure 1 TO CLEAN BURNER TUBE, INSERT HOOK AS INDICATED BY THE ARROW 21 For safe operation ensure the Gas Valve Assembly Orifice is inside the Burner Tube before using your grill. See figure. If the Orifice is not inside the Burner Tube, lighting the Burner may cause explosion and/or fire result- ing in serious bodliy injury and/or property damage. Tube Burner Gas Valve Assembly Orifice Burner Tube Infra-red Burner | I ен Burner Tube Cooking Instructions Burn-Off [1] Before cooking on your gas grill for the first time, you should "burn off" the grill to eliminate any odor or foreign matter. Ignite the main burners, lower the Lid, andoperate grill on HIGH setting for 3 to 5 minutes. The Lid must be open if the infra-red burner is lit. CAUTION: Operating your grill on the HIGH setting for longer than five minutes may damage certain parts of your gril. Do not leave your grill unattended when in use. Preheating [] To preheat main burners, light your grill on HIGH, lower the Lid and follow this timetable. To preheat the infra-red burner the Lid must be open. * For high temperature cooking, preheat grill 3 to 5 minutes. + For low temperature cooking, preheat grill 3 minutes. + To slow cook, preheating is not necessary. Cooking Temperatures [1] High setting: The HIGH Control Knob setting should only be used to pre-heat your grill the first 3-5 minutes and for burning food residue off the grill for 3-5 minutes after cooking is complete. Never use the HIGH setting for extended cooking. [] Medium to Low Settings: Most recipes specify medium to low settings, including all smoking, rotisserie cooking and cooking lean cuts such as fish. An Important Note About Cooking Temperatures [] The suggested heat settings and cooking times shown in the following pages are approximate. Unlike the controlled environment inside your Kitchen, variables including outside temperatures, direction and conditions of wind, as well as grill location will affect your grill's heat distribution. Because these condition vary, and no two backyards are alike, we offer this guide as a convenience. We recommend you monitor your grill closely and rotate foods as needed to prevent overcooking and ensure the most delicious results every time. e The infra-red cooking area is for quick searing. Once seared, reduce heat and continue cooking or move food to the primary cooking area to finish cooking. + The middle and back primary cooking areas offer high heat for grilling. * The Secondary Cooking Rack offers medium heat for preparing breads and firm vegetables. * The front primary cooking area offers less heat and is ideal for preparing delicate foods and for keeping cooked foods warm. Direct Cooking using Main Burners or Infra-red Burner [] The direct cooking method can be used with the supplied Cooking Grids and food placed directly over the lit grill Burners. Direct Cooking requires the Grill Lid to be open. This method is ideal for searing and grilling when you want an open-flame barbecued taste. A-1 Indirect Cooking using Main Burners [] The indirect cooking method can also be used with the supplied Cooking Grids. To cook indirectly, the food should be placed on the left or right side of your grill with the main Burner lit on the opposite side. Or place your food on the Secondary Cooking Rack and light the outer main Burners. Either way, indirect cooking must be done with the Lid down. Prepare Cooking Grids for Grilling [1 Greasing the cooking surface will help keep foods from sticking during the cookout and reduces the amount of cleanup required. Use a brush to apply a thin layer of cooking oil or vegetable shortening onto each Cooking Grid before each cookout. We do not suggest spray type oils unless they are specified for high-temperature cooking. Be sure to coat the entire cooking surface. Flare-Ups [] The fats and juices dripping from grilled food can cause flare-ups which impart a favorably, distinctive taste and color to food. They should be accepted up to a point. To minimize flare-ups: Use a drip pan under foods that produce a lot of grease * Trim excess fat from meats and poultry Preheat the grill properly Clean grill regularly to remove food and grease build-up Reposition your food often to avoid flare-ups eo Failure to comply with these instructions could result in a fire or explosion that could cause serious bodily injury, death or property damage. e Never line the bottom of the grill housing or Savor Plates™ with aluminum foil, sand or any substance that will restrict the flow of grease into the Grease Draining Tray and Receptacle. e Before each use of your grill: Pull out the Grease Tray and remove all grease and food debris to prevent grease fire hazard. e Use your grill at least 3 feet away from any wall or surface. Use your grill at least 3 feet away from combustible objects that can melt or catch fire (such as vinyl or wood siding, fences and overhangs) or sources of ignition including pilot lights on water heaters and live electrical appliances. e Never use your gas grill in a garage, porch, shed, breezeway or any other enclosed area. e Your grill will get very hot. Always wear a flame retardant BBQ Mitt when cooking on your grill. Never lean over cooking areas while using grill. Do not touch cooking surfaces, Lid, grill housing or other parts while grill is in operation, or until the grill has cooled down after use. Guide to Grilling using the Main Burners and Direct Cooking Method Grilling Steak and Ribs Turn the grill Burners on HIGH, close the Lid and preheat your grill 3 to 5 minutes. Open Lid and place the meat on the Cooking Grid directly above the lit Burners. Cook the meat on both sides until seared. Reduce the heat to MEDIUM and cook meat until done. Grilling times will vary according to meat thickness. Grilling Hamburgers and Sausages Turn the grill Burners on HIGH, close Lid and preheat your grill 3 to 5 minutes. Open Lid and place the meat on the Cooking Grid directly above the lit Burners. Cook the meat on both sides until seared. Reduce the heat to MEDIUM and cook the meat until done. Grilling times will vary according to meat thickness. Grilling Poultry Turn the grill Burners on HIGH, close Lid and preheat your grill 2 to 3 minutes. Then raise the Lid, reduce heat to MEDIUM and cook poultry directly over lit Burners until done. Poultry skin is fatty so you should expect some flare-ups when using this direct method. To minimize flare-ups, try grilling poultry using the indirect method. Place the poultry on one side of the grill with the opposing Burners on MEDIUM heat, and lower the grill Lid. Grilling times will vary based on the size of your poultry. Grilling Pork Turn Burners on HIGH and preheat your grill 3to 5 minutes with the Lid closed. Raise Lid, place pork on Cooking Grid and cook until seared. Reduce heat to MEDIUM and cook until done. Grilling times will vary according to meat thickness. Whole Fish and Whole Fillets Preheat your grill on HIGH for 2-3 minutes with the Lid down. Raise lid and turn Burners to MEDIUM heat. Place fish (skin down) on grill and cook over direct heat until done. Use cooking time as a guide or until fish is opaque but still moist. Smaller Fish Fillets and Cubes Follow the directions from above, using approximate cooking times shown at right. Place a small piece of aluminum foil on the Cooking Grids if the fish pieces are small enough to drop between the Cooking Grids. Vegetables and Fruit Prepare your fruit or vegetables and brush with butter or basting sauce If desired. To cook indirectly, the food should be placed on the left or right side of your grill with the Burner lit on the opposite side and the grill lid down. Or center your food on the Secondary Cooking Rack and light the outer grill Burners. Either way, indirect cooking must be done with the Lid down. In some instances, you may want to grill vegetables and fruit directly over the heat, using the supplied Cooking Grids. Foods that work best with direct heat are relatively soft and require a short cooking time: mushrooms, zucchini, tomatoes and skewered fruit such as apricots, peaches, pineapple, strawberries and Kiwis. Remember the Grill Lid must remain up when cooking directly. Cut of Meat T-bone steak Sirloin steak Beef spare ribs Porterhouse steak New York strip steak Hamburgers Sausages Chicken breast (cook with bone down) Chicken wings Drumsticks Whole bird (cook with breast up) Chops Loins Cutlets Whole fish Whole fish fillets Fish fillets Boneless cubes Approximate Cooking Times Rare: 4-8 minutes Medium: 10-14 minutes Well done: 15-20 minutes Rare: 4-6 minutes Medium: 8-10 minutes Well done: 10-15 minutes Direct method: approximately 15 minutes Indirect method: up to 30 minutes Indirect method: approximately 1 hour Medium: 10-14 minutes Well done: 15-20 minutes 10 - 12 minutes per pound or until fish is opaque 4 - 5 minutes each side or until fish is opaque For very firm vegetables—particularly potatoes and yams, we recommend that you partially boil until almost cooked, before placing them on the grill. Cooking times using the indirect method with the lid down will be similar to those for your Kitchen oven. However, there are many factors such as outside temperature, wind conditions and location of grill that affect your grill performance so we suggest you watch the temperature gauge and adjust the heat accordingly. Cooking times for foods prepared with the direct method will be much shorter mainly because of the direct heat source and softness of the food. Timing will be compa- rable to normal pan frying or grilling. Guide to Searing using the Infra-red Cooking Zone Important notes about using the Infra-red Burner Whether you are a seasoned chef or a newcomer to gas grilling, infra-red cooking is quite different than grilling over a traditional burner. Although the primary grill burners will also sear meat, the Infra-red Burner produces a more intense and concentrated heat that sears the meat more quickly. This quick searing produces a crisp and flavorful outer crust and locks in the meat's natural flavor and juices. Follow the cooking guidelines provided. Then take some time to experiment with your Infra-red cooking zone. Also, read the Cooking Instructions on page A-1 so you understand the importance of pre-heating, cooking temperatures and safety warnings. e The Lid must always be open when the Infra-red Burner is lit. e Infra-red cooking times will be much shorter than traditional grilling so do not leave the grill unattended. Searing Steak and Ribs Turn the Infra-red Burner on HIGH and preheatfor3to 5 minutes with the Lid open. Then place the meat on the Cooking Grid and sear each side for approximately 2 minutes. Reduce the Infra-red Burner to LOW or move meat to the primary grilling area and finish cooking. Grilling times will vary according to meat thickness. Searing Hamburgers and Sausages Turn the Infra-red Burner on HIGH and preheatfor3to 5 minutes with the Lid open. Then place the meat on the Cooking Grid and sear each side for approximately 2 minutes. Reduce the Infra-red Burner to LOW or move food to the primary grilling area and finish cooking. Grilling times will vary according to meat thickness. Hamburgers and sausages are fatty so you should expect some flare-ups when cooking these foods. To minimize flare-ups follow the instructions above. You may also consider grilling these and other fatty foods using the primary grill area and the indirect cooking method. e Once lit, leave the Infra-red Burner on High and sear both sides of meat using the guidelines below. e Once seared, adjust the Infra-red Burner to Low and continue cooking until desired doneness. You can also move the seared meat to the primary grilling area to finish cooking. This method allows you to sear and prepare larger amounts of meat. oe NEVER attempt to douse a flare-up with water which can damage the Burner. To control flare-ups: e Trim excess fat from meats and poultry. eo Preheat the Burner properly. e (Clean the Burner regularly to remove food and grease build-up. See Burner Tube cleaning instructions in this manual. eo Reposition your food often and consider moving the seared meat to the primary grilling area to finish cooking. Approximate Total Cooking Time Cut of Meat T-bone steak Sirloin steak Beef spare ribs Porterhouse steak New York strip steak Rare: 4 minutes Medium: 6-7 minutes Well done: 8-10 minutes Hamburgers Sausages Rare: 4 minutes Medium: 5 minutes Well done: 6-7 minutes Guide to Slow Roasting and Baking Techniques An Important Note About Heat Settings The suggested heat settings shown are approximate. There are many factors such as outside temperature, wind conditions and grill location that affect your grill performance. We offer these cooking times as a convenience, but suggest you watch the temperature gauge and adjust the heat accordingly. Preparing to Roast Roasting uses the indirect cooking method. Therefore, the food should be placed on the left or right side of your grill with the Burner lit on the opposite side. You can also use the supplied Cooking Grid with an aluminum drip pan underneath allowing you to collect juices for making gravies. Remember, indirect cooking requires the Lid of your grill to be down. Preheating your grill is not required for slow cooking methods such as roasting. If you do choose to preheat your grill before roasting, turn the Burners on HIGH and close Lid for approximately 2-3 minutes. Food preparation Trim meat of excess fat. Truss meat and poultry with cooking string to retain shape if desired. Bacon strips can be used to cover the outside surface of lean meat and poultry to help prevent it from drying out. Another method for keeping food moist during roasting is to put water in a cooking pan, then cover with foil. The foil should be removed for the first or the last part of the cooking time to ensure proper browning. Tips for roasting Except when roasting with water in a roasting pan, the juices that collect in the pan can be used as the base for a tasty sauce or gravy. Place a cooking pan directly over the heat, add extra butter if needed, then add several spoon- fuls of flour to thicken sauce. Finally, add sufficient chicken or beef stock to obtain the desired consistency. Once the meat is cooked, remove it from your grill and cover with a piece of foil. Allow it to stand for 10-15 minutes which allows the juices to settle. This will make carving easier and ensure a tender, juicy roast.

Preparing to Bake To bake in your new grill you'll need a baking dish or cast- iron cooking pan, and a pair of flame retardant BBQ Mitts. If the cooking pan is cast-iron be sure to season the pan before use. Preheat your grill 3-5 minutes, then lower heat to achieve the baking temperature desired. Baking uses the indirect cooking method. Therefore, your cooking pan should be Oven Temperature placed on the left or right side of your grill with the burner lit on the opposite side. Tips for Baking Prepare your favorite recipe as you would in the kitchen. Foods cooked in the grill for long periods of time should always be covered in aluminum foil to retain moisture. You will need to stir the food several times as it bakes, and add additional liquid if required. Watch the temperature, and adjust to cook according to your recipe directions. Recommended Grill Setting Slow 300° - 340° F Both outside Burners on LOW Moderate 355° - 390° F 1 outside Burner on HIGH and 1 outside Burner on LOW High 410° - 480° F Both outside Burners on HIGH A-4 Guide to Rotisserie Cooking Slow Cooking with a Rotisserie Rotisserie cooking produces foods that are moist, flavorful and attractive. The rotisserie system is most commonly used for cooking meat or poultry and is designed to cook food slowly. You can place a cooking pan beneath the food to collect juices for basting and gravy. To flavor the contents of the cooking pan you may add herbs, onions, or other spices of your choice. The cooking times on a rotisserie will be approximately the same as for oven cooking. Balancing the Food In rotisserie cooking, balancing the food is of utmost importance. The rotisserie must turn evenly or the stopping and starting action will cause the food to cook unevenly and possibly burn the heavier side. The easiest foods to balance are those of uniform shape and texture. To test if the food is balanced correctly when secured, place the ends of the rotis- serie spit loosely in the palms of your hands. If there is no tendency to roll, give the spit a quarter turn. If it is still stable, give it a final quarter turn. It should rest without turning in each of these positions. It can then be attached to your grill. Food Preparation When preparing poultry, truss the birds tightly so that wings and drumsticks are close to the body of the bird. The cavity of the bird may be stuffed prior to this. Pull the neck skin down and, using a small skewer, fix it to the back of the bird. Push the rotisserie spit through lengthwise, catching the bird in the fork of the wishbone. Center the bird and tighten with the holding forks. Test the balance as described before. A rolled piece of meat requires the rotisserie skewer to be inserted through the center of the length of meat, then secured and balanced. For meats that contain bones, it is best to secure the rotisserie skewer diagonally through the meaty sections. If protruding bones or wings brown too quickly, cover with pieces of foil. Guide to using The Smoker Drawer Preparing to Smoke Smoking gives food a distinctive, delicious flavor. You will find a variety of wood chips or pellets available for use in smoking grilled foods. Pre-soaking of wood chips may be required so read and follow the manufacturers instructions for preparation of smoking chips prior to filling the smoker drawer. Using The Smoker Drawer Start your grill and allow it to reach the desired cooking temperature for the food you are grilling. Wear a flame retardant BBQ Mitt and pull the smoker drawer out of the grill and fill with your prepared smoking chips. Dried herbs and spices may also be added to produce different flavors. Return the Smoker Drawer to the grill and light the Smoker Burner following the lighting instructions in this manual. Tips for Smoking You can reduce the strength of the smoke flavor by only smoking for half or three quarters of the cooking time. Foods naturally high in oils lend themselves well to smoking, while drier foods benefit from a marinade. You can also rub the food with herbs, spices or flavored oils. Many foods can be smoked to produce stunning results with very little effort. Here are a few suggestions: ® Типа steaks, marinated in Asian flavors of sesame oil, soy sauce and sherry. * Pork fillets, rubbed with ginger, orange rind and brushed with maple syrup. e Mussels, brushed with lemon rind and chili oil. ee Lamb cutlets, marinated in virgin olive oil, lemon, oregano and black pepper. The same marinade can be used for a whole leg or rack of lamb. Chicken, boneless chicken pieces especially sliced breasts e Fish, sliced fillets of firm fish, assorted seafood such as prawns, scallops and calamari o Pork, sliced fillets, diced or minced pork, sliced leg steak, sliced chops + Beef, sliced fillet, rib-eye, round, rump, sirloin oe Lamb, sliced fillet, round, loin Guide to Using the Cooking Rack Vegetables are generally easy to cook on the grill. The Cooking Rack makes it convenient because you can still use the main cooking area while the vegetables are suspended above the grids. Pre-cook hard vegetables by briefly boiling or microwaving them before cooking on the grill. Wrap vegetables in a double thickness of foil to protect them while cooking on the grill. Then, remove the foil if desired, 10-15 minutes before the end of cooking, brush veg- etables with butter or oil and finish cooking. The Cooking Rack can be used for purposes other than just the obvious. Consider using the rack for warming French bread, garlic bread, croissants or even bagels. A small whole fish wrapped in foil also cooks well on the Cooking Rack. Parcels of seafood such as scallops, prawns and sliced fish fillets prepared in a sauce and portioned into small foil wraps cook well this way, too.

Answer: No, your gas grill is manufactured to exact specifications and is certified for LPG (Liquid Propane Gas) or NG (Natural Gas) use only. For your safety, conversion kits are not available, nor will we sell or otherwise provide parts or information to be used to convert your grill. Any attempt to convert your grill is dangerous and will void your warranty. Question: Are the serial and model numbers of my grill listed somewhere for reference? Answer: The serial and model numbers are listed on a silver CSA label placed on the grill. Depending on the grill model the silver CSA label will be located on the left or right side bowl panel underneath the side shelf, underneath the right side of the control panel, outside left or right of control panel or on the back of the grill cabinet. Question: My grill will not light properly. Why? Answer: Always light the Main Burner farthest from the fuel source first. This will draw gas across the manifold helping prevent air pockets which obstruct gas-flow and prevent proper grill lighting. Also try this procedure: 1. Turn gas off at source and turn Control Knobs OFF. Wait at least 5 minutes for gas to clear, then retry. 2. If your grill still fails to light, turn the Burner Control Knob(s) and gas source OFF and conduct a leak test of ALL gas connections and gas sources as explained in the Use and Care section of this manual. 3. If no leaks are detected, wait 5 minutes for any gas to ciear and repeat the lighting procedure. Question: If my ignitor or battey is not working how can | light my grill manually? And - Why would | need the silver lighting stick that hangs from the side of my grill? Answer: If your ignition fails to work or your battery needs replacing, you can light your grill through the Lighting Hole on the side of the grill bow! using the Manual Lighting Stick that hangs from the side of your grill. The Lighting Stick is designed to hold a paper match and allows you to safely insert a match through the Lighting Hole without getting close to the Burner. Never remove the Cooking Grids or Ceramic Savor Plates™ and attempt to light the grill from above. To light your gas grill manually, insert a paper match into the Manual Lighting Stick and follow steps 1 through 6 of the Basic Lighting Procedures. Then, light the match and place it through the Lighting Hole on the right side of the grill (location of hole varies by grill model). Turn the Smoker Burner Control Knob to the High setting to release gas. The Burner should light immediately. Question: Sometimes | hear a humming sound coming from my regulator. What causes this? And - My grill has a low flame and sometimes will not light. Why? Answer: The humming sound is gas flowing through the regulator. A low volume of sound is normal and will not interfere with the operation of your grill. Loud or excessive regulator humming and/or low flow and intermittent lighting may be caused by the regulator's excess gas flow device. Opening the tank valve all the way or too quickly is what triggers the regulator's safety device to restrict gas flow, preventing excess gas flow to your grill. Lighting the main Burner farthest from the fuel source every time will help eliminate air pockets in the manifold. Note: This procedure should be done every time a new LP Gas tank is connected to your grill. [1 Turn all Control Knobs to the OFF position. [] Turn off the LP Gas tank at the tank valve. For Naturai Gas shut off NG vaive. [] Disconnect regulator from LP Gas tank. For Natural Gas disconnect regulator from 12 ft. Natural Gas Hose. [] Let unit stand for 5 minutes. [] Reconnect regulator to the LP Gas tank. For Natural Gas reconnect regulator to 12 ft. Natural Gas Hose. [] Open grill Lid (or Side Burner Lid if you are lighting the Side Burner). [] Turn the tank valve slowly 4 of one turn. For Natural Gas open Shut Off valve. [] Light main Burner farthest from fuel source. [] Turn the tank valve siowiy one more % of one turn for 2 of one complete tum. [1 Continue to light Burners moving towards the fuel source. [1 Do not turn tank valve more than % of one turn on LPG models. Question: Where do | use my grill for safer operation and better performance? Answer: [1 Strong winds and low temperatures can affect the heating and performance of your gas grill so factor in these elements when positioning your grill outdoors for cooking. [1] Use your grill at least 3 feet away from any wall or surface. [] Use your grill at least 3 feet away from combustible objects that can melt or catch fire (such as vinyl or wood siding, fences and overhangs) or sources of ignition including pilot lights on water heaters and live electrical appliances. [1] Never use your gas grill in a garage, porch, shed, breezeway or any other enclosed area. [1 Never obstruct the flow of ventilation air around your gas grill housing. Question: The Regulator and Hose supplied with my gas grill does not fit the older LP Gas tank I've used for years. Why not? Answer: The U.S. Government regulates gas appliances and LP Gas tanks. When regulations are changed the LP Gas tank fittings are altered to insure compliance. If your LP Gas tank does not fit the Regulator and Hose supplied with your new grill, the tank is outdated and must be replaced. Note: Effective April 1, 2002 all LP Gas tanks sold must include an “OPD” Overfill Prevention Device. The OPD tanks are identified by their triangular-shaped valve wheel. This internal device prevents the LP Gas tank from being overfilled. Tanks without an OPD valve can not be refilled. Question: What type of pipe and fittings will | need to connect a natural gas grill at my home? Answer: Even if your home is plumbed with a natural gas connection outdoors, there is an additional fitting and piping required to hook up a natural gas grill. Refer to the Natural Gas section of this manual for a diagram of recommended Natural Gas hook-up. Because each home is unique the type and length of fittings will vary. This is a technical process that involves patience and time. The details below will offer guidance but if you feel uncomfortable with this procedure you should seek the assistance of a plumber or gas supply professional. Gas Line Piping: If the length of line required does not exceed 50 feet, use a 5/8" O.D. tube. One size larger should be used for lengths greater than 50 feet. Gas piping may be copper tubing, type Kor L; polyethylene plastic tube, with a minimum wall thickness of .062 inch; or standard weight (schedule 40) steel or wrought iron pipe. Copper tubing must be tin-lined if the gas contains more than 0.3 grams of hydrogen sulfide per 100 cubic feet of gas. Plastic tubing is suitable only for outdoor, underground use. Gas piping in contact with earth, or any other material which may corrode the piping, must be protected against corrosion in an approved manner. Underground piping must have a minimum of 18" cover. Shut Off Valve:lt is highly recommended that a Shut Off Valve be installed at the gas supply source outdoors. Install at a point after the gas pipe exits the outside wall and before the Quick Disconnect Hose, or install it at the point before the gas line piping enters the ground. Question: Is it safe to clean my porcelain coated cooking grids in the dishwasher? Answer: Clean your cooking grids by hand if there are any chips or cracks in the porcelain finish and dry them thoroughly. If no chips or cracks are present it should be safe to use the dishwasher. Remember to dry the cooking grids thoroughly before placing back onto your grill to minimize rusting. Question: What causes grill parts to rust and what affect does it have on my grill? Answer: Rusting is a natural oxidation process and may appear on cast-iron and steel parts. Rust will not affect the short term performance of your grill. To slow the rusting process on steel Cooking Grids (select models) we recommend greasing the Cooking Grids before and after each cookout. Use a brush to apply a thin layer of cooking oil or vegetable shortening onto each Cooking Grid. We do not suggest spray type oils unless they are specified for high-temperature cooking. Be sure to coat the entire cooking surface including edges and any areas with chipped porcelain. Question: Which is a better cooking surface to grill on; porcelain coated steel / cast-iron cooking grids or stainless steel grids? Answer: They all have their advantages. For traditional grilling and searing meats, cast-iron or steel grids offer better heat conductivity. To protect against the natural rusting process, steel or cast-iron cooking grids offer a porcelain finish which requires routine maintenance to keep the grids well seasoned. Stainless steel is popular with those who prefer less maintenance. A new innovative solution is available on select models called stainless Therma-Core™. This Cooking Grid combines a heat conducting steel core with an easy-to-clean stainless outer shell. Question: Some stainless steel grills specify 304 grade construction while others do not mention a grade at all? What is the difference? Answer: All stainless grades are not created equal. The 304 grade, also called 18-8 stainless steel, Is prized for its excellent resistance to rust and corrosion and good performance at high temperatures, which makes it ideal for grill construction. 304 grade stainless steel is by far the most popular stainless steel and contains 18-20% chromium and 8-10% nickel, making it non-magnetic. Some stainless steel grills are constructed of Type 430 stainless steel which contains 16-18% chromium but generally less than 1% nickel. It is magnetic with less corrosion and rust resistance and designed for limited temperature use. Beware of stainless steel grills that offer no claim of grade because what looks shiny on the sales floor could become a problem on your patio. How can you tell if a product is made of 304 grade stainless? Take the simple magnet test. If a magnet sticks to the stainless steel it is 430 grade. If a magnet does not stick you can trust its 304 grade quality.
