• Remove cooking grates and heat tents. Light burners, 

rotate knobs from HIGH to LOW. You should see a 
smaller flame in LOW position than seen on HIGH. 
Perform burner flame check on side burner, also. Always 
check flame prior to each use. If only low flame is seen 
refer to "Sudden drop or low flame" in the 
Troubleshooting Section.

• Turn all knobs to the       OFF position. Turn LP cylinder 

OFF by turning hand-wheel clockwise to a full stop.

• Turn gas off at LP cylinder. Press and hold 

electronic ignitor button.  "Click" should be heard and 
spark seen each time in each collector box or 
between burner and electrode. See "Troubleshooting" 
if no click or spark.

before checking valves.  Knobs lock in OFF position. 
To check valves, first push in knobs and release, knobs 
should spring back. If knobs do not spring back, 
replace valve assembly before using grill. Turn knobs 
to LOW position then turn back to OFF position. Valves 
should turn smoothly.   

• Before each use, check to see if hoses are cut or worn 

or kinked. Replace damaged hoses before using grill. 
Use only valve/hose/regulator specified by 
manufacturer.

• Do not mistake brown or black accumulation of grease 

and smoke for paint.  Interiors of gas grills are not 
painted at the factory (and should never be painted). 
Apply a strong solution of detergent and water or use a 
grill cleaner with scrub brush on insides of grill lid and 
bottom. Rinse and allow to completely air dry. Do not 
apply a caustic grill/oven cleaner to painted 
surfaces. 

• Plastic parts: Wash with warm soapy water and wipe dry.

• Do not use citrisol, abrasive cleaners, degreasers or a 
concentrated grill cleaner on plastic parts. Damage to 
and failure of parts can result. 

• Porcelain surfaces: Because of glass-like composition, 

most residue can be wiped away with baking 
soda/water solution or specially formulated cleaner. Use 
nonabrasive scouring powder for stubborn stains.

• Painted surfaces: Wash with mild detergent or 

nonabrasive cleaner and warm soapy water. Wipe dry 
with a soft nonabrasive cloth.

• Stainless steel surfaces: To maintain your grill’s high 

quality appearance, wash with mild detergent and 
warm soapy water and wipe dry with a soft cloth after 
each use. Baked-on grease deposits may require the 
use of an abrasive plastic cleaning pad. Use only in 
direction of brushed finish to avoid damage. Do not 
use abrasive pad on areas with graphics. 

• Cooking surfaces: If a bristle brush is used to clean 

any of the grill cooking surfaces, ensure no loose 
bristles remain on cooking surfaces prior to grilling. It is 
NOT recommended to clean cooking surfaces while 
grill is hot.

SPIDER ALERT!

CAUTION

If your grill is getting hard to light or the flame is weak, 
check and clean the venturis and burners.

Spiders or small insects are known to create 
“flashback” problems by building nests and laying 
eggs in the barbeque’s venturi or burner, obstructing 
the flow of gas.  The back-up gas can ignite behind 
the control panel.  This flashback can damage your 
barbeque and cause injury.  To prevent flashbacks 
and ensure good performance the burner and venturi 
tube assembly should be removed and cleaned when 
ever the barbeque has been idle for an extended 
period of time.

•  Do not lean over grill while lighting.

4. Turn sideburner knob to the HI position, push and hold 

ELECTRONIC IGNITOR button.

5. If sideburner does NOT light within 5 seconds, turn 

knob to OFF, wait 5 minutes, then repeat lighting 
procedure.

4. Place lit match near burner.
5. Turn sideburner knob to the HI position.  Be sure

Follow these instructions to clean and/or replace parts of 
burner assembly or if you have trouble igniting grill. 

1. Turn gas OFF at control knobs and LP cylinder.
2. Remove cooking grates and heat tents. 
3. Remove carryover tubes and hardware securing burners.
4.  Detach electrode from burner. 

NOTE: Removal/Detachment method will depend on 
the burner configuration. See different configurations 
in illustrations below.

5. Carefully lift each burner up and away from valve 

openings.

We suggest three ways to clean the burner tubes. 
Use the one easiest for you.

(A) Bend a stiff wire (a light weight coat hanger works 

well) into a small hook. Run the hook through each 
burner tube several times.

(B) Use a narrow bottle brush with a flexible handle (do 

not use a brass wire brush).  Run the brush through 
each burner tube several times.

(C) Wear eye protection: Use an air hose to force air into 

the burner tube and out the burner ports. Check each 
port to make sure air comes out each hole.

6. Wire brush entire outer surface of burner to remove 

food residue and dirt.

7. Clean any blocked ports with a stiff wire such as an 

open paper clip.

8.Check burner for damage due to normal wear and 

corrosion, some holes may become enlarged. If any 
large cracks or holes are found, replace burner. 

 9. Attach electrode to burner.

10. Carefully replace burners.

11. Attach burners to brackets on firebox.

12. Reposition carryover tubes and attach to burners. 

Replace heat tents and cooking grates.

• Clean cooking grates.
