OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
Lighting The Grill
Before rst use:
Remove all hangings or plastic straps, if present. Before you cook on your new gas grill, it is important
to clean your grill with heat. To do this, operate the grill for approximately 15 minutes with the lid closed
and the control knob in the highest position. This will clean the internal parts by burning off any residue
and odor from the manufacturing process.
WARNING
Do not lean over grill when lighting. Read instructions before lighting. Do not put pots on the
sear side burner. Using pots on the sear side burner will result in high carbon monoxide levels.
CAUTION
If the ame extinguishes accidentally during ignition or operation, immediately TURN OFF the
natural gas shut-off valve and then TURN OFF the control knob.
1. Check that the control knobs are in the
OFF position.
2. Open natural gas supply at shut-off valve.
3. Open the lid during the lighting process.
4. Depress and turn the control knob counter-clockwise from the OFF position, past the ignite
position, to the HIGH position. You may need to repeat this several times to ignite the burner.
If ignition does not occur in 5 seconds, turn the control knob(s) to the OFF position, wait 5 minutes, and
repeat the lighting procedure.
If the burner still does not light, check that the natural gas shut-off valve is open and follow the match
lighting instructions. Check the Troubleshooting Guide on page 24 for more information.
