USE & CARE GUIDELINES This use & care manual covers the Lynx grill models listed below. Some features and options will vary based upon the model that you purchased.
Important safety precautions Please review these important safety precautions before you use your grill. 1. NEVER LEAVE THE GRILL UNATTENDED WHILE COOKING. 2. Ensure all tie-down wires have been removed from the burners. 3. Always use caution when operating the grill in a windy area. (See INDEX: “Grilling in Windy Conditions” for further details.) 4. Avoid wearing loose-fitting garments or long sleeves while grilling. They could ignite. 5.
GRILLING IN WINDY CONDITIONS Outdoor grills create more heat than interior kitchen ranges. That’s how they sear and grill steaks and other foods. But there are a few things you can do to further prevent the possibility of improper heat buildup: These high-performance burners require a constant, steady supply of fresh air to mix with the fuel. Your Lynx grill pulls air in through the front and vents hot gases out through the rear.
USING YOUR LYNX GRILL Grilling requires high heat for searing and low, controlled heat for slow cooking. Some foods are cooked using direct heat and some using indirect heat. Thinner cuts of food are often cooked at a “HI” heat setting with the lid open. Your Lynx grill features a variety of professional-level burners and tools for meeting the wide variety of cooking challenges. We will reveal how these features work for you.
Lighting YOUR GRILL WARNING 1. Never attempt to light a burner if you smell gas. 2. Always keep the lid open (side-burner lids must be completely removed) when lighting your grill. 3. Releasing fuel into a closed grill before lighting will increase the risk of explosion, property damage , personal injury or death. 4. Keep your face and body as far from the grill as possible when lighting.
Lighting YOUR GRILL ...continued COLD WEATHER WARNING: PROPANE Extremely cold temperatures may cause your ProSear™ 2 burners to light inside the burners instead of outside. Once lit, if you hear a ‘whooshing’ sound, immediately turn the burner knobs off to extinguish the flame and then immediately re-light the burners. MANUAL Lighting If a burner doesn’t light after several attempts, it can be match lit using the lighting rod stored in the drip tray.
BASIC GRILLING PRE-HEATING TYPES OF COOKING Pre-heating your grill every time you use it is extremely important. Pre-heating allows the grill to properly heat up, providing more even and more consistent cooking results. The main burners in your Lynx grill are capable of creating a range of heat intensities.
USING THE ProSear™ 2 BURNER Never place food over the ProSear™ 2 burners before they are fully pre-heated because food particles and grease dripping onto a cold ProSear™ 2 burner can clog the tiny ports and damage the burner. For the same reason you should minimize water spills on the ProSear™ 2 burner and should not use water to control flare-ups. Take special care to minimize dropping any liquids on the ProSear™ 2 burner while cleaning the cooking grids.
USING THE ROTISSERIE BURNER Rotisserie cooking provides an even delivery of heat to your foods. It has no equal. The constant rotation not only cooks foods evenly, it also self bastes. As juices rise to the surface of the food, they naturally flow around it as it rotates. And, by moving the burner out from beneath the food, you avoid scorching flare-ups. Your foods will be more evenly cooked, more tender and juicier when slow-roasted on a Lynx’s rotisserie.
USING THE ROTISSERIE BURNER ...continued Slide the pointed end of the skewer into the motor and rest the other end on the rollers on the other side of the grill. The notched portion of the skewer must rest on the rollers for proper operation. Must rest on rollers The Rotisserie Burner To light the rotisserie infrared burner, first mount the skewered food item on the grill then follow the rotisserie lighting procedure. (See INDEX: “Lighting Rotisserie Burner” for further details.
CLEANING YOUR LYNX GRILL STAINLESS STEEL Lynx products are known for their attractive appearance. We achieve this by selecting only the finest grades of stainless steel and applying exacting workmanship.
CLEANING YOUR LYNX GRILL ...continued PROSEAR™ 2 burners WARNING DO NOT ALLOW EXCESS GREASE OR LIQUIDS TO ACCUMULATE IN THE DRIP TRAY AS THIS MAY CREATE A FIRE HAZARD. NEVER USE GRILL WITHOUT DRIP TRAY PROPERLY INSTALLED. GRILLING RACKS The easiest way to clean the grill racks is to do so immediately after turning off the burners, while they are still hot. Wearing a long BBQ mitt to protect your hand from steam, dip a brass bristle brush in hot water and scrub the grill rack.
TROUBLESHOOTING YOUR LYNX GRILL BEFORE YOU CALL FOR SERVICE Please check a few things before calling for service: • Is there fuel supplied to the grill? • Is the main shut-off valve open? • Are you using the correct type of fuel? (LP or Natural Gas) (See INDEX: “Gas Requirements” for further details.
POTENTIAL PROBLEMS ...continued LOW OR INSUFFICIENT HEAT No part of the grill should ever be lined with aluminum foil. Doing so will interfere with airflow and can cause a low heat condition. Ensure that you’ve pre-heated the main burners for at least 10 to 15 minutes with the hood closed. Proper leveling during installation is critical. A grill that is out of level will cause erratic burner combustion and inefficient, uneven heating.
POTENTIAL PROBLEMS ...continued BURNER GOES OUT LIGHTS WON’T LIGHT • Location • Check Power First determine if the problem is being caused by location. If the grill is subject to high winds, reposition it to provide some protection. Ensure that the grill is connected to a live AC power source and check for rotisserie motor operation. • Check the Gas Supply • Burners Seated Check to ensure that the burners are correctly positioned in the grill. (See INDEX: “Burner Placement” for further details.
