GRILLING TIPS AND TRICKS
1. Always "Preheat" your grill before cooking. Light all main burners, turn to "HI", and close the lid until the thermometer reads over
500°F (260°C), which should be 4 minutes. Then adjust the burner control knobs to the proper temperature. Note that no preheating is
necessary for the side burner.
2. The thermometer measures the temperature at the top of the lid. The temperature down by the cooking grates is generally somewhat
warmer.
3. Mother Nature can impact your grilling times. Allow more cooking time for cold, wind, and higher altitudes.
We recommend you place the grill in an area protected from much wind.
4. Trim away any excess fat from meat to reduce flare-ups.
5. Keep similar size portions together so that they cook more evenly.
6. Generally speaking, the more food on the grill, the longer the cooking time.
7. Be aware when using the Direct cooking method, as food can easily become overcooked, burned, or dry out. Food may require more
turning, or sometimes, may need to be moved off the flame.
8. Larger pieces of meat generally require more cooking time per pound than smaller pieces of meat.
9. If a major flare-up, or too many flare-ups occur, turn off the gas, move the food away from the flare-up, and close the hood. Restart the
grill once the flare-up has died down.
10. Turn foods infrequently. Generally, only turn a steak once during cooking.
11. Use tongs rather than a fork when turning the food on the grill. Less juice will be lost that way.
FOOD SAFETY
1. Always use safe food handling and preparation when using this grill.
2. Wash all poultry, seafood, and vegetables before cooking.
3. Use separate platters, plates, and utensils for uncooked and cooked foods.
4. Leave all meat, poultry, and seafood in the refrigerator until ready to cook.
5. Use a meat thermometer to ensure foods are adequately cooke
Trouble Shooting Guide
BURNER WILL NOT LIGHT
1. Gas supply is turned off. Turn on gas at LP tank.
2. Out of propane. Check to be sure you still have propane in your tank.
3. Regulator is not properly seated into the tank valve. Remove and reattach. Hand tighten only.
4. Crimped fuel supply hose. Inspect and straighten.
5. Regulator failure or damaged hose. Order replacement part and replace.
6. Make sure you can hear the electronic igniter clicking. If not, replace the battery with an "AA" size. Inspect the electrode to be sure it's
not coated in grease or dirt. If so, clean with rubbing alcohol. Check the distance from the electrode tip to the burner. The tip of the
electrode should be 1/8" to ¼" from the main burner and 1/8" to 3/16" from the side burner. Adjust if necessary. Inspect the electrodes
to be sure they are not cracked or broken. If so, order replacement parts and replace.
7. Blockage in the gas system. Inspect the burners to be sure insects, spider webs, etc do not block them.
Clean if necessary. Inspect under the control panel to be sure the burners are aligned properly with the valves.
IRREGULAR FLAME OR YELLOW FLAME
1. New burner may have residual oil, which will burn off.
2. Tubes in burners are blocked. Remove and clean.
3. Burners have a high grease or dirt build-up. Remove and clean.
4. Burners are not aligned properly with the valves. Inspect under the control panel.
SUDDEN DROP IN GAS PRESSURE OR FLAMES BLOW OUT
1. Out of gas. Check to be sure you still have propane in your tank.
2. Your excessive fuel flow valve has tripped, thereby reducing the flow of gas. Turn off all burners, wait 30 seconds, and relight grill. If
problem persists, turn off all burners. Disconnect regulator from tank.
Wait 10 minutes. Reconnect regulator and leak test. Slowly turn on LP tank and relight grill. Other ways the flow limiting device can be
activated include
a. A ruptured gas hose. Inspect, perform a leak test, and replace as necessary.
b. Opening the control knobs before turning on the LP gas at the tank. Turn on the gas at the LP tank first before turning on a control
knob to light.
c. Improper purging of tank before it was filled. See your LP gas dealer.
3. Wind could be blowing out your burners. Turn front of grill to face wind or move out of the wind.
EXCESSIVE FLARE-UPS
1. Flame tamer, inside of grill, grates, and burners need to be cleaned.
2. Grease tray needs to be cleaned and emptied.
3. Using too high of heat to cook. Reduce control knob setting.
