Lighting Grill
Using Grill
Before Lighting Grill
P
rior to turning on the gas, inspect the gas supply
t
ubing or hose. Look for evidence of abrasion, cuts,
w
ear and tear, or other damage which could require
replacement prior to use. Make sure all burner control
knobs are off. DO NOT attempt to light the burners if
the smell of gas is present.
C
heck the connection with a soap and water solution
a
fter attaching the hose. Make sure there is gas in the
t
ank and the tank is upright.
Battery Ignition Models
When lighting a burner, ALWAYS pay close attention
to what you are doing. Be certain you are pressing
the battery ignition button corresponding to the
burner you are lighting.
Lighting Grill Burners
Open the hood or remove covers. Push and turn the
control knob until the “HIGH” position on the knob
aligns with the indicator line on the control panel.
Press the electronic ignition button corresponding
to the burner being lit. You will hear a clicking
sound. Turn the control knob to the desired setting.
If the burner does not light in 4 seconds, turn the
knob to “OFF” and wait 5 minutes before trying
again.
This will allow accumulated gas to dissipate. After
s
everal failed attempts, the burner can be lit with a
p
aper book match using the flash tubes.
Lighting Grill Burners with Flash Tubes
If you have just attempted to light the burner with the
igniter, allow 5 minutes for any accumulated gas to
dissipate. Place the lit match through the grid next to
the flash tube of the burner being lit. Keep your face
as far away from the grill as possible. Make sure the
match is adjacent to the flash tube. 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 the burner
does not light in 4 seconds, turn the knob to “OFF,”
wait 5 minutes, and try again. If the burner will not
light after several attempts, see the Troubleshooting
section.
Lighting TruSear™ Infrared Burner
(If Applicable)
Before lighting the burner, remove the stainless steel
cover. Push in and turn the TruSear™ infrared control
knob until the “HIGH” position on the knob aligns
with the indicator line on the control panel. You will
hear a clicking sound. 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 and try again. After several failed
attempts, the burner may be lit by turning the control
knob to “HIGH” and dropping a match on the face of
the burner. If the burner does not immediately ignite,
turn the knob to “OFF”, wait 5 minutes and try again.

Features
Note: Control locations will vary according to model.
Before You Begin
•
Before each use, turn the control knob to “HIGH”
a
nd 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
b
e cleaned after each use.)
Canopy Thermometers (If Applicable)
Your outdoor grill is equipped with a thermometer on
the canopy. The thermometer is designed to aide in
the preheating of the grill and closed canopy grilling.
The estimated cooking temperatures with the canopy
closed are:
Smoker Box
U
sing the smoker box feature intensifies the flavor by
a
dding smoke to the grilling process. The additional
s
moke creates a “cloud” around the food which
permeates meats and vegetables for added smoky
flavor. In order to use the smoker box, remove the last
set of porcelain grids on the right hand side of the
grill. Set the smoker box in the opening so that the
f
ront and rear tabs rest on the grill frame.
Wood Chip Use in Smoker Box
There are many wood chips available and selection is
based on personal taste. The most common chips
used are mesquite or hickory. ALWAYS soak the chips
in water prior to putting them into the box. Use the
“HIGH” position to start the chips smoking, then
reduce the heat to a lower level to prevent them from
drying out and flaming. If the wood chips do flame
up, add a small amount of water to extinguish the
flame. Use caution when adding water to a hot box to
avoid steam burns. This tray may also be filled with
water to produce steam. Whether smoking or
steaming, the grill should remain closed as much as
possible to maximize the effect.
During extended roasting periods, it is normal to
add fresh wood chips and water to the box several
times. Limit the amount of times the canopy is
opened—each peek adds about 15 minutes to the
cooking time.

leaks before each use.
Lighting Grill (cont.)
Lighting Side Burners
F
irst, remove the burner cover or any cooking utensil
f
rom the burner grate.
P
ush and turn the control knob until the “HIGH”
p
osition aligns with the indicator line on the control
panel. Immediately press the electronic ignition
button corresponding to the burner(s) being lit
until the burner is lit or until 4 seconds pass. If the
burner does not light after several attempts, wait
five minutes to allow any accumulated gas to
dissipate. If the burner will not light after several
attempts, then the burner can be lit by holding a lit
match next to the burner ports. Push and turn the
control knob until the “HIGH” position on the knob
aligns with the indicator line on the control panel.
Lighting the Grill Burners
(300 and 500 Series Models)
Make sure the unit is plugged into a properly
grounded receptacle. Turn the appropriate control
knob counter-clockwise to any position. This control is
both a gas valve and an electric switch. Burners will
ignite at any “ON” position with the automatic
recognition system. If the flame goes out for any
reason, the burners will automatically reignite if the
gas is still flowing. When gas is permitted to flow to
the burners, the electric igniters start sparking. On all
surface igniters, you should hear a clicking sound. If
you do not, turn off the control and check that the
unit is plugged in and that the fuse or circuit breaker
is not blown or tripped.
Within a few moments, enough gas will have traveled
to the burner to be able to light. When the burner
lights, turn the burner control to any position to adjust
the flame size. If the burner does not light in 4
seconds, turn the knob to “OFF” and wait 5 minutes
before trying again. This will allow accumulated gas to
dissipate. After several failed attempts the burner can
be lit with a paper book match using the flash tubes.
Lighting Grill Burners with Flash Tubes
I
f you have just attempted to light the burner with the
i
gnitor, allow 5 minutes for any accumulated gas to
d
issipate. Place the lit match through the grid next to
the flash tube of the burner being lit. Keep your face
as far away from the grill as possible. Make sure the
match is adjacent to the flash tube. Push and turn the
control knob until the “HIGH” position on the knob
a
ligns with the indicator line on the control panel.
M
ake sure you are turning the control knob that
c
orresponds with the burner being lit. If the burner
does not light in 4 seconds, turn the knob to
“OFF,” wait 5 minutes, and try again. If the burner
will not light after several attempts, see the
Troubleshooting section.
Lighting Infrared Rotisserie Burner
(On Applicable Models)
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.
