Simply run the main burners on high for approximately one-half hour. Main Burner Use: When searing foods, the lid must be kept open and the burners can be set to high.
Side Burner Use (if equipped): The side burner can be used like any stove top burner, for gravies, soups etc. For best performance, the gas grill should be located with the side burner protected from the wind.

Maintenance / Cleaning Instructions 13 We recommend this gas grill be thoroughly inspected and serviced annually by a qualified service person. At all times keep the gas grill area free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids. Do not obstruct the flow of ventilation and combustion air. Keep the cylinder enclosure ventilation openings (located on the cart sides and at the front and back of the bottom shelf) free and clear from debris.
Grids And Warming Rack: The grids and warming rack are best cleaned with a brass wire brush during the pre-heating period. Steel wool can be used for stubborn stains. It is normal that stainless grids (if equipped) will discolor permanently from regular usage due to the high temperature of the cooking surface. Control Panel: The control panel text is printed directly on the stainless steel and with proper maintenance will remain dark and legible.
WARNING! When reinstalling the burner after cleaning it is very important that the valve/orifice enters the burner tube before lighting your gas grill. If the valve is not inside the burner tube a fire or explosion could occur. Infrared Burners: Because of the high intensity of the infrared burner, most drippings and food particles that fall onto the burner surface are immediately incinerated. However, some debris and residue may remain.
