THE COOKING GRID LIFTER
Hold the grid lifter by gripping the center section with the
prongs pointing down (use an oven mitt or heavy glove
if the grill is hot). Insert the notched end of the grid lifter
into the cooking grid, in front of the midway point (front to
back; Fig. 27-3), and central (left to right; Fig. 27-4).
Twist the grill lifter (clockwise or counterclockwise) so
the handle is parallel to the grill rods. This “seats” the
spiked end of the grid lifter between two rods, enabling
you to safely lift out the grid. Lift slowly and adjust the
grid lifter, if necessary, for balance.

THE DRIP TRAY
The drip collection system allows you to brush or scrape
excess dried residue from the grilling area directly into
the drip tray (see PARTS LIST for drip tray location).
THE GRILL BRUSH (OPTIONAL)
Purchase a Fire Magic
®
stainless-steel grill brush (sold
separately) to keep your grill cleaner. It comes with
scraper for large particles and a replaceable head with
brass bristles for overall cleaning.

THE WARMING RACK
The warming rack (Fig. 27-2) is packed separately.
To install the warming rack, lift the front of the rack
up slightly and insert the rack hangers into the two
holes in the back of the inner oven hood just above the
backburner. Then lower the front of the rack into a level
position to lock the rack in place.
To remove the warming rack, lift up on the front of the
rack until the rack hangers pull free from their supporting
holes.
Note: Removing the warming rack before using the
rotisserie will leave more clearance for the
meat being cooked.

THE FLAVOR GRID(S)
Place each fl avor grid directly over a burner. The solid
areas of the grid should rest over the tabs found on the
burner. See Fig. 27-5.
Note: This allows heat from the burners to be evenly
distributed throughout the cooking area. The
avor grids heat and cool quickly, making the
grill very responsive to changes in heat from
the burners.

FLAVOR FROM WOOD CHIPS OR CHARCOAL
You can add wood chips, wood chunks, or the natural
wood charcoal of your choice to the smoker drawer (Fig.
27-5) or the fl avor grid (Fig. 27-6). Heat wood chips in the
smoker drawer by lighting the smoker burner using the
smoker control and zone 2 ignitor. When using the fl avor
grid, we recommend placing wood outside the direct
cooking zone or wrapping it in perforated aluminum foil.
Soaking wood before use will slow burning and increase
smoke fl avor. Wood and charcoal ash will remain in the
avor grid and drawer after use. Either can be easily
removed and cleaned when unit has fully cooled. The
smoker drawer is water-tight, allowing liquid fl avorings
to be added as well.
