GRILLING TIPS & HELPFUL HINTS
• Alwayspreheatthegrillbeforecooking.Setallburnerson“HI”heatandcloselid;
heat for 10 minutes, or until thermometer registers 500˚-550˚F (260˚-288˚C).

Allow more cooking time on cold or windy days, or at higher altitudes. Allow less
cooking time in extremely hot weather.

gas grill may run hotter than normal for the first
few uses.
• Grillingconditionsmayrequiretheadjustmentoftheburnercontrolstoattainthe
correct cooking temperatures.
• Ingeneral,largepiecesofmeatwillrequiremorecookingtimeperpoundthan
small pieces of meat. Foods on a crowded cooking grate will require more cooking
time than just a few foods. Foods grilled in containers, such as baked beans, will
require more time if grilled in a deep casserole rather than a shallow baking pan.
• Trimexcessfatfromsteaks,chopsandroasts,leavingnomorethanascant¼
inch (6.4mm) of fat. Less fat makes cleanup easier, and is a virtual guarantee
against unwanted flare-ups.
• Foodsplacedonthecookinggratedirectlyaboveburnersmayrequireturningor
moving to a less hot area.
• Usetongsratherthanaforkforturningandhandlingmeatstoavoidlosingnatural
juices. Use two spatulas for handling large whole fish.
• Ifanunwantedflare-upshouldoccur,turnallburnersoffandmovefoodto
another area of the cooking grate. Any flames will quickly subside. After flames
subside, relight the grill. NEVER USE WATER TO EXTINGUISH FLAMES ON A
GAS GRILL.
• Somefoods,suchasacasseroleorthinfishfillets,willrequireacontainer
for grilling. Disposable foil pans are very convenient, but any metal pan with
ovenproof handles can also be used.
• Alwaysbesurethebottomtrayandgreasecatchpanarecleanandfreefrom
debris.
• Donotlinethefunnel-shapedbottomtraywithfoil.Thiscouldpreventthegrease
from flowing into the grease catch pan.

SNAP IGNITION OPERATION
m Always open the lid before igniting the burners
Each control knob has its own igniter electrode built in. To create a spark you must push
the control knob in (A) and turn to “START/High” (B).
This action will generate gas flow and a spark to the burner lighting tube (C). You will
hear a “snap” from the igniter. You will also see a 3˝ - 5˝ orange flame coming from the
burner lighting tube at the left side of the burner (D).
Continue to hold the burner control knob in for two seconds after the “snap”. This
will allow gas to flow completely down the burner tube (E) and insure ignition.
Check that the burner is lit by looking through the cooking grates. You should see a
flame. If burner does not light on first try, push control knob in and turn to OFF.Repeat
lighting procedure a second time.
m WARNING: If the burner still does not light, turn the burner
control knob to “OFF” and wait 5 minutes to let the gas clear
before you try again or try to light with a match.
