Manually Lighting the Grill
To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury or death from fire or explosion:
• Open Hood before lighting the grill to prevent an explosion from gas build-up.
WARNING
!
1. Open the Hood.
2. IMPORTANT: Make sure Control Knobs are turned “Off.” (Fig. 7 - P.18)
3. Turn the LP Gas Cylinder valve open counterclockwise until it stops. (Fig. 8- P.18)
4. Locate either the left or right match-lighting hole you intend to use underneath the Grill Bowl. Push in and turn
either the far left or far right Main Burner Control Knob, near the match-lighting hole, counterclockwise to the
“High” position.
5. Insert a lit match through the match-lighting hole using the match holder (Fig. 11 and 11a) OR through the cooking
grates. (Fig. 12)
6. From the “Off” position, light all other Burners from left or right, making sure each Burner is lit before lighting
the next. Your grill has a Crossover Ignition System that allows the Burners to light successively off one another.
Confirm each Burner is lit before lighting another Burner.
If any or all Burners fail to light after three or four attempts following Steps 3-5, turn all Control Knobs to the “Off” po-
sition and close the LP Gas Cylinder valve to dissipate any accumulated gas. Wait five minutes; then repeat the lighting
procedures.
NOTE: If the Burner still fails to light, refer to the Troubleshooting Section.
7. After ignition, turn the Control Knobs to “High” for 3-5 minutes and close the Hood to preheat the grill. Preheat the
grill before every cooking session.
If a Burner goes out during operation, turn all Control Knobs to the “Off” position and close the LP Gas Cylinder valve
to dissipate any accumulated gas. Open Hood and wait five minutes before attempting to relight the grill.
