Many areas of the grill generate extreme heat. We have taken every precaution to protect you from the contact areas. However, it is impossible to isolate all high-temperature areas.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Never attach an unregulated gas line to the appliance. Connection to an unregulated gas line can cause excessive heat or fire. Verify the type of gas supply to be used, either Natural Gas (N.G.) or Liquid Propane (L.P.), and make sure the serial plate agrees with that of the supply. Conversion kits are available separately for an additional cost which will enable you to convert your grill from L.P. to N.G. or to convert your grill from N.G. to L.P.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS L.P. GAS INSTALLATION Gas grills that are set to operate with L.P. gas come with a high capacity hose and regulator assembly. (Note: Only use the pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied with the grill or a replacement pressure regulator and hose assembly specified by the manufacturer). This assembly is designed to connect directly to a standard 20 lb. L.P. cylinder. L.P. cylinders are not included with the grill. L.P.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 6. Connect the hose and regulator assembly to the tank valve (See Fig. 5). Hand tighten the quick coupling nut clockwise to a full stop. DO NOT use a wrench to tighten because it could damage the quick coupling nut and result in a hazardous condition. Fig. 5 7. Open the tank valve fully (counterclockwise). Use a soapy water solution to check all connections for leaks before attempting to light your grill. See “Pre Operation Leak Testing" on page 22.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Disconnecting A Liquid Propane Gas (LP Gas) Tank From Your Grill: 1. Turn the burner knobs and LP gas tank valve to the full OFF position. (Turn clockwise to close.) Fig. 8 2. Detach the hose and regulator assembly from the LP gas tank valve by turning the quick coupling nut counterclockwise. See Fig. 8. CAUTION: When the appliance is not in use, the gas must be turned off at the supply tank. L.P. TANK INFORMATION Never use a dented or rusted L.P.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS WARNING When leak testing this appliance, make sure to test and tighten all loose connections. A slight leak in the system can result in a low flame or hazardous condition. Most L.P. gas tanks now come equipped with a leak detector mechanism internal to the tank. When gas is allowed to escape rapidly, it shuts off the gas supply. A leak may significantly reduce the gas flow, making the grill difficult to light or causing low flames.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE AND AFTER LIGHTING 1. Ensure your grill is located on a level surface. 2. Keep the gas grill area clean and free from combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors and liquids. 3. Ensure nothing is obstructing the flow of combustion and ventilation air. 4. Ensure the ventilation of the cylinder enclosure is free and clear of debris. 5. Visually check burner flames. WARNING Check the gas supply line for cuts, wear or abrasion.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS GRILL BURNER LIGHTING Warning: Do not lean over grill when lighting. Turn off LP supply at cylinder when appliance is not in use. Main Burner Lighting Illustration: 1. Check that the control knobs are in the OFF position. 2. Open valve at tank fully by turning counterclockwise. 3. Open lid during lighting. 4. Push the Electronic Ignition down 3 to 4 seconds while turning the GRILL control knob to the HIGH position. The burner should ignite.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS If ignition does not take place within 5 seconds, immediately turn the control knob to the OFF position. Wait 5 minutes and repeat step 4 above or refer to match lighting instructions in manual. If the igniter does not function, the burner can be lit by holding a lit match to the burner while the control knob is turned counter-clockwise to “HIGH.” NOTE: After the first use the stainless steel around the burner will darken.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE GRANITE MAINTENANCE Outdoors can be very harsh on the granite of your grill. Dirt, pollen and even UV rays can affect the granite. Please follow these instructions to preserve the granite’s natural beauty: - Granite is a hard, non-porous natural stone and is relatively not affected by harsh chemicals. However, it is recommended to use a neutral cleaner or stone soap (available in hardware stores or from a stone dealer), or a mild dishwashing liquid and warm water.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE STAINLESS STEEL After initial usage, areas of the grill may discolor from the intense heat given off by the burners. This is normal. Purchase a mild stainless steel cleaner and rub in the direction of the grain of the metal. Specks of grease can gather on the surface of the stainless steel and bake on to the surface and give a worn appearance. For removal, use a non-abrasive oven cleaner in conjunction with a stainless cleaner. NOTE: Always scrub in the direction of the grain.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE Definitions: (+) Guard – Guard is a portion of portable luminaries unit that prevents inadvertent contact with the bulb. It may be integrated with the UV filter or lamp containment barrier or as part of an enclosure or shade.
