Immediately activate the Igniter (see Page 6). The selected burner should light within five seconds. Light the
burners sequentially from either left to right or right to left.
Confirm that the burner is properly lit and that the flame pattern is as desired, (see Figs. 9a, 9b & 9c, for the proper
flame patterns). If the flame pattern is other than normal, consult the Troubleshooting Guide on Page 23 for
corrective action.
Always preheat the grill before starting cooking. Light all burners and adjust them to the HIGH position for 5 to
10 minutes or until the Grill reaches the desired cooking temperature. Before placing any food on the Grill, make
sure that the cooking surface is free from food and debris.
Adjust the Controls to a medium setting for most cooking requirements. A light coating of cooking oil on
the cooking grids, before heating the Grill, will help prevent foods from sticking to the Grill.
a. Always open the Hood completely and always inspect the Grill
and burners to confirm that all components are properly positioned
before lighting the main burners.
b. Make sure the grease cup is empty and grease tray is clean.
c. Always visually inspect the gas supply line for fraying, cracking, or
rodent damage before lighting the grill and, if necessary, install a
replacement obtained from your dealer prior to lighting the grill.
Always confirm that all of the burner control knobs are in the OFF
position before opening the gas supply.
Turn on the propane gas supply valve at the tank (1 to 2 turns) or
turn on the main natural gas supply valve (see Fig. 8).
Turn the selected Burner Control Knob to the HIGH position by
pushing down on the knob and turning it counter-clockwise.
