BREAKING IN YOUR GRILL
When firing your grill for the first time, it is advisable to run the Main Burner(s) on “HI”
for 20 minutes with the hood down and then turn the Main Burners “OFF”. Next, run the
Rotisserie Burner (if so equipped) on “HI” for 20 minutes with the hood down, then turn
the Rotisserie Burner “OFF”. This tempers the grill.
LIGHTING YOUR GRILL
ƽ WARNING: Before each use of your grill it is important to
inspect the full length of the gas line hose. If it is evident
there is excessive abrasion or wear, or the hose is cut, the
hose must be replaced prior to the appliance being put into
operation.
ƽ DANGER: When the “excess gas flow control” feature is
activated, a small amount of gas is still flowing to the burners.
After turning OFF the cylinder valve, wait at least 5 minutes
for the gas to clear before attempting to light the barbecue.
Failure to do so may result in an explosive flame-up, which
can cause serious bodily injury or death.
ƽ DANGER: Make sure that the lid is in the full open position
any time you attempt to light your grill. Failure to open the
lid could lead to delayed ignition which may result in serious
bodily injury or death, or in a fire or an explosion causing
damage to property.
PREHEATING GRILL
It is extremely important that your grill be up to temperature before you begin using it.
After lighting turn all burners on “HI”. Close the lid and preheat the grill between 500°
and 550° F (260° and 290° C) for 10 minutes. This preheating will ensure that the
cooking grid is hot enough for proper grilling.
ƽ WARNING: Never leave a grill unattended to guard against
possible grease fires getting out of control. Grease fires can
be severe and cause grill damage, property damage and
bodily harm.
CLOSE LID FOR GRILLING
We recommend always cooking with your lid CLOSED if you are in a windy area or
colder climate. Your Ducane
®
gas grill has been designed and constructed to give you
maximum flexibility and cooking performance. Be creative, try different cooking methods
on your grill to determine what suits your needs best…there is no “right” or “wrong” way
to cook…just different individual styles.
ƽ WARNING: Please remember that this is an outdoor gas
cooking appliance. Many areas of the grill generate extreme
heat. We have taken every precaution to protect you from
the contact areas. However, it is impossible to isolate all
high-temperature areas. Therefore, use good judgment and
a certain degree of caution when grilling on this product. We
suggest a covered, protected hand during operation of grill.
Do not move your grill when it is in operation or hot to the
touch. Wait until your unit is turned off and properly cooled
down before moving from place to place. Failure to follow
this warning could result in personal injury.
ƽ WARNING: The burner control knobs must be in the OFF
position before turning on the liquid propane cylinder tank
valve. If they are not in the OFF position, when you turn on
the LP cylinder valve, the “excess gas flow control” feature
will activate, limiting the flow from the LP cylinder. If this
should occur, turn off the LP cylinder valve and burner
control knobs. Start over.
Check your parts list or your authorized dealer for the proper replacement hose
assembly. For base cabinet model grills, it will be necessary to go behind your grill to
check the hose.
POST HEATING GRILL
In order to assist cleaning your cooking grid and to completely vaporize remaining
juices, post heat grill for 10 minutes with the burners on “HI” and the lid closed.
ƽ CAUTION: Do not cover the cooking grate during the post
heating period.
After the post-heating of your grill is completed turn the control knobs to the “OFF”
position.
PROPANE TANK SHUT-OFF
After the burner box cools down, the propane tank valve should also be closed. If you
do not want to wait for the burner box to cool down, use a covered hand to turn off the
propane tank valve.
