10. Turn foods infrequently. Generally, only turn a
steak once during cooking.
11. Use tongs rather than a fork when turning the
food on the grill. Less juice will be lost that way.
12. Know your sauce and when to apply. Oil and
vinegar based sauces can be brushed on any
time. Sugar based sauces like barbecue sauce
should be applied during the last few minutes of
cooking.
13. A timer can help you keep from over-cooking the
food.
14. Use insulated protective mitts or potholders
when working around a grill in operation.
15. Use a small amount of cooking oil on the cooking
grates before heating to reduce foods sticking on
the grates.

valve. Remove and reattach. Hand tighten only.
4. Crimped fuel supply hose. Inspect and straighten.
5. Regulator failure or damaged hose. Order
replacement part and replace.
6. Make sure you can hear the electronic igniter
clicking. If not, replace the battery with an AA
size. Inspect the electrode to be sure it's not
coated in grease or dirt. If so, clean with rubbing
alcohol. Check the distance from the electrode
tip to the burner. The tip of the electrode should
be 1/8" to 1/4" from the main burner. Adjust if
necessary. Inspect the electrode to be sure it's
not cracked or broken. If so, order replacement
parts and replace.
