CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Helpful Care and Maintenance Hints
Before grilling, pre-heat grill for 15 minutes on "HIGH" with hood down. To avoid uncontrolled
flare-ups or grease fires, grill meats with hood open. Close hood if meats are thick or weather
is cold, or if you are using a rotisserie or indirect cooking.
For the side sear burner, do not use ANYTIME with lid in the down position.
Always protect your hand with a pot holder or cooking glove when coming into contact with a
hot surface.
Hood up when grilling meats, especially chicken. Hood down when indirect or rotisserie
cooking.
NEVER leave your grill unattended while cooking.
After use, close hood, turn burners to HIGH for 15 min. for self-cleaning, grease burn off.

Gauging amount of LPG fuel
To gauge the amount of propane fuel in your gas tank the grill must be in operation. Place
your hand at the top of the tank and slowly move down the side until the tank feels cool to the
touch. This will indicate the approximate amount of propane gas in your tank; if 3/4 empty,
refill.
Do not use charcoal briquettes or any flammable material with your grill. Use of such
material will void your warranty and may lead to a fire, explosion and/or bodily harm.
