Check the Drip Tray
Open the drip tray and check the drip pans for grease and other
liquids. Clean the drip tray and pans often to avoid grease and
other liquid buildup.
Water can build up in the drip tray and pans if the grill is not
covered when not in use.
See Drip Tray in the “General Cleaning” section for emptying and
cleaning the drip tray and pans.
The drip tray must be in place and pushed all of the way in when
using the grill.
Prepare the Gas Supply
1. Open the hood completely. Do not light burners with the hood
closed.
2. Make sure the control knobs are all turned to the OFF
position.
Turn the Gas Supply On
1. For outdoor grills using a 20 lb LP gas fuel tank:
Slowly open the tank valve.
NOTE: If flow limiting device activates, your grill may not
light. If your grill does light, the flames will be low and will not
heat properly. Turn 20 lb LP gas fuel tank valve and all control
knobs off and wait 30 seconds. After shutting off the 20 lb LP
gas fuel tank, very slowly open tank valve and wait 5 seconds
before lighting.
2. For outdoor grills using gas supply source other than 20 lb LP
gas fuel tank:
Open the manual shutoff valve in the gas supply line. The
valve is open when the handle is parallel to the gas pipe.
Lighting the Grill and Infrared Sear Burner (on some
models)
1. Do not lean over the grill.
2. Select the burner you want to light. Push in and turn the grill
burner control knob to LITE/HI, while continuing to hold it in.
3. You will see the igniter glow or hear the “snapping” sound of
the spark (depending on your model). When burner is lit,
release the knob. Turn knob to desired setting.
4. Repeat for each of the other burners as needed.
IMPORTANT: If burner does not light immediately, turn the
burner knob to OFF and wait 5 minutes before relighting.
Manually Lighting Main Grill and Infrared Sear Burners
1. Do not lean over the grill.
2. Remove the manual lighting extension (see following
illustration) and attach a match to the split ring.
3. Strike the match to light it.
4. Guide the lit match between the grill grate and one of the
slots in the sear plate.
5. Push in and turn the burner knob to LITE/HI for the burner
closest to the lit match. The burner will light immediately.
When burner is lit, turn knob to desired setting.
6. Repeat steps 3 through 5 for each main burner.
7. Remove match and replace manual lighting extension inside
the plastic pouch.
IMPORTANT:
If burner does not light immediately, turn the burner knob to OFF
and wait 5 minutes before relighting.
If any burners do not light after attempting to light them manually,
contact the KitchenAid Customer eXperience Center. See the
“Assistance or Service” section.
