Lighting Your Grill
Danger:
Failure to open lid while igniting the barbecue’s burners or not waiting 5 minutes to allow gas to clear if the barbecue 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.
Main Burner
1. Open lid while lighting burners.
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. All valves must be in the “OFF” position.
3. Open cylinder valve.
4. Ignite only the burners you wish to use, using the same method for each:
Push desired burner valve knob and rotate slowly about 1/4 counter-clockwise until a click is heard. The burner should light. If the burner does not light, return the valve knob to the “OFF” position immediately. Wait five minutes for the gas to clear and repeat the procedure. After burner is lit, repeat the procedure with any other burner desired.
5. Adjust valve knob(s) to desired cooking temperature.
GSC3318
Owner’s Manual
17
Using the Lighting Stick to Light the Main Burners
1. Remove the cooking grid from the burner you wish to light.
2. Insert a match into the end of lighting stick. Light the match.
3. Once lit, place the flame through the hole on grill body to reach the burner ports.
(As the fig. shown on right side).
4. Press the valve knob and rotate it counter clockwise to the ‘’HIGH’’ position. The burner should light immediately. To light up other burners, repeat the same procedure for the adjacent burner and continue in sequence until all desired burners are lit.
5. Replace cooking grid and adjust burners to the desired cooking temperature.
Precautions
1. After lighting, please 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, 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.
Side Burner
1. Open lid while lighting the burner. Lid must remain open while burner is lit.
2. Valve must be in the “OFF” position.
3. Open cylinder valve.
4. Push side burner knob fully and rotate it slowly about 1/4 counter-clockwise until a click is heard. The burner should light. If the burner does not light, turn the knob to the “OFF” position immediately. Wait five minutes for the gas to clear and repeat the procedure.
5. Adjust valve knob to the desired cooking temperature
2 in.

FIG. C
Poor combustion: Wavy, yellow flames- too little 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.
WARNING: Always monitor the grill closely when cooking and turn the flame level down (LOW) of OFF, if flareups intensify
Shutting Off Burners
•
Always turn the valve knob(s) clockwise to the ‘’HIGH’’ position, then press and turn it to ‘’OFF’’. Never force the knob without pressing it. This could damage the valve.
•
Promptly turn the gas supply to the “OFF” position at the propane cylinder.

•
The new regulators are equipped with a safety device that restricts the gas flow in the event of a gas leak.
However, unsafe practices of grill operation could activate the safety device without having a gas leak.
•
A sudden shut off of the gas flow typically occurs if you open the LP tank valve rapidly, or if one or more of the burner control knobs is in an open position when opening the LP tank valve.
•
This procedure is effective with all LP Tank sizes as well as Natural Gas. When performing the procedure on a
Natural Gas model, simply substitute "Natural Gas valve" for "LP Tank".
•
To ensure the procedure is safely and is successfully performed, please carefully follow the instructions below.
1. Close the LP tank valve.
