Manually Lighting the Grill
1. IMPORTANT: Make sure Control Knobs are turned “Off.” (Fig. 7 - P.14)
2. Turn the LP Gas Cylinder valve open counterclockwise until it stops. (Fig. 8- P.14)
3. Using the Match Holder, Insert a lit match through the cooking grids near the burner to be lit. (Fig. 11)
4. Push in the far left Main Burner Control Knob and turn counterclockwise to the “High” position.
5. From the “Off” position, push Control Knob in and turn counter-clockwise to the high position and light all other
burners from left to right using a match, making sure each burner is lit before lighting the next. 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.
6. After ignition, turn the Control Knobs to “High” for 3-5 minutes 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. Wait five minutes before attempting to relight the grill.

Each burner may be lit in this method.
The Burners have been preset by the manufacturer for optimal flame performance. A blue flame, possibly with a small
yellow tip, is the result of the optimal air and gas mixture.
Check the flame before each cooking session and throughout the grilling season. Check the flame, especially after long
periods of storing the grill. If the flame is significantly yellow in color, the appropriate amount of LP gas in the air/LP
gas mixture is not correct. This could be due to a blocked Burner from grease drippings or from insects building a nest
inside the Burner or Burner opening. See How to Clean the Burners.
