Before You Begin
The first time you use the grill, turn the control knob to “HIGH” and
preheat racks for an additional 15–20 minutes. This allows the
porcelain grates to be “seasoned.”
Before each use, turn the control knob to “HIGH” and preheat for
5 –7 minutes.
Check to be certain the drip tray is in place.
Light the grill burners using the lighting instructions.
Place the food on the grill and cook to the desired doneness.
Adjust heat setting, if necessary. The control knob may be set to
any position between “HIGH” and “LOW.”
Allow grill to cool before cleaning. (Drip tray should be cleaned
after each use.)
Canopy Thermometers
Your outdoor grill is equipped with a thermometer on the canopy. The
thermometer is designed to aid in the preheating of the grill and
closed canopy grilling. The estimated cooking temperatures with the
canopy closed are:

Lighting Infrared Rotisserie Burner (If Applicable)
The location of the infrared burner makes it more susceptible to strong
wind conditions—more so than the protected grill burners. For this
reason you should avoid using it during windy conditions.
Open the canopy. Push in and turn the rotisserie control knob until the
“HIGH” position on the knob aligns with the indicator line on the
control panel and continue to hold in the knob. Press the electronic
ignition button which corresponds to the rotisserie control knob. You
will hear a clicking sound. After the burner lights, hold the rotisserie
control knob in about 5 seconds longer or until the burner remains lit.
Once lit, turn the control knob to the desired setting. If the burner
does not light within 4 seconds, release and turn the control knob to
“OFF”. Wait 5 minutes for any accumulated gas to dissipate. If the
burner does not light after several attempts, then the burner can be lit
by holding a lit match to the burner (with the control knob pushed in
at the light position). Push and turn the control knob until the “HIGH”
position on the knob aligns with the indicator line on the control panel.
Make sure you are turning the control knob that corresponds with the
burner being lit. If relighting a hot burner, wait 5 minutes. Never leave
the rotisserie control knob at “ON” if rotisserie is not in use.
