Leak Testing GENERAL Although all gas connections on the grill are leak tested at the factory prior to shipment, a complete gas tightness check must be performed at the installation site due to possible mishandling in shipment, or excessive pressure unknowingly being applied to the unit.

USING THE GRILL: Grilling requires high heat for searing and proper browning. Most foods are cooked at the “HI” heat setting for the entire cooking time. However, when grilling large pieces of meat or poultry, it may be necessary to turn the heat to a lower setting after the initial browning. This cooks the food through without burning the outside. Foods cooked for a long time or basted with a sugary marinade may need a lower heat setting near the end of the cooking time.
Care & Maintenance MAINTENANCE 1. Keep the grill area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids. 2. Keep the holes in the three sides of the cart clear and free from debris, thus ensure the flow of combustion and ventilation air is unobstructed. 3. Visually check burner flames as following: a. Remove cooking grids and flame tamers b. Light burners. c.
Troubleshooting SPIDER AND INSECT WARNING Spiders and insects can nest in the burners after storing, these nest can cause fires inside the tube or beneath the grill. This is very dangerous condition. So always clean the burners before use after storing. WHEN TO LOOK FOR SPIDERS Inspect the burners at least once a year or immediately in case any of the following conditions occur: 1. Yellow flame with insects burning smell. 2. Temperature can’t rise. 3. Heats unevenly. 4.
Grilling Tips 1. The doneness of meat, whether rare, medium, or well done, is affected by the thickness to a large extent. 2. The cooking time is affected by the kind of meat, the size and shape of the cut, the temperature of the meat when cooking begins, and the degree of doneness desired. 3. Defrost meat in the refrigerator overnight. Don’t use a microwave, this always yields a juicier. 4.
