LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
Follow these instructions each time you light your Fire Magic
Barbecue.
FOR AUTOMATIC LIGHTING:
1. Read these instructions before lighting.
2. Open the lid of the smoke oven.
3. Turn both barbecue gas valves to the ‘OFF’ position.
4. Turn on the gas at the source outside of the barbecue
enclosure.
NOTE: Turn on one valve at a time for either automatic or
manual lighting. Adjacent barbecue burner will cross-ignite.
In some conditions the barbecue may light quicker if both
valves are turned on.
5. Push either gas valve and turn to ‘HIGH’ then immediately
use the spark generator to ignite your burners (see Figure
11). The burner should light.
CAUTION: If the burners do not light, IMMEDIATELY turn
the valve to ‘OFF’ and WAIT 5 MINUTES before repeating
step 5. If the burners still do not light, refer to the
instructions for ‘Manual Lighting’ to the right.
NOTE: Barbecues frequently achieve a better air/gas
mixture and will ignite more quickly if the valve is first
turned beyond ‘HIGH’ to ‘MEDIUM’ or ‘LOW’ for lighting.

your gas supplier or fire department.
FOR MANUAL LIGHTING:
CAUTION: Always wait 5 minutes for gas to clear after
any unsuccessful lighting attempt.
1. Follow steps 1 through 4 above.
2. Insert either a burning long-barrel butane lighter, a burning
long-stem match or a burning match held by the match
holder (Figure 12), attached to the drip tray through the
cooking grids to the burners below the flavor grid.
3. While holding the match or lighter flame next to the burner,
depress the appropriate valve knob and turn it
counterclockwise to the ‘HIGH’ position. Adjacent burners
will cross-ignite.
