SAFETY MATTERS

WARNING

• Read this manual carefully and completely before using your grill, to reduce the risk of fire, burn hazard or other injury and to ensure proper installation and servicing.
• Never use rusted, dented or damaged propane cylinders. Never store additional or empty propane cylinders in the grill cabinet or in the vicinity of this or any other gas or electrical appliance. Do not store propane cylinders indoors or on their sides for gas may escape. Gas cylinders are highly flammable
• No Children should ever be left alone or unattended in an area where a grill is located. Place your grill well away from areas where children play. Do not store items that may interest children in or around the grill, in the cart or in the enclosure or Island.
• Never move the grill when hot. When in use, portions of the grill are hot enough to cause severe burns.
• Always maintain the required clearances from combustibles as detailed. The grill is designed for outdoor use only. Never use in a garage, building, shed, breezeway or other enclosed area. Do not use this grill under any unprotected overhead combustible construction. Combustible material exposed to heat will catch on fire
• Gas grills are not designed or certified for and are not to be installed in or on a recreational vehicle, portable trailer, boat or any other moving installation including commercial use.
• Always have a Fire Extinguisher accessible — never attempt to extinguish a grease fire with water or other liquids.
• Store your grill in a well-ventilated area. If stored indoors, detach and leave LP cylinder outdoors in a well-ventilated area away from heat and away from where children may tamper with it. Always leave tank outdoors.
• Keep any electrical supply cord and the fuel supply hose away from any heated surfaces. Electrical cords should be placed away from walkways to avoid tripping hazard.
• Do not repair or replace any part of the grill unless specifically ended in this manual. Other service should be performed by a certified and qualified BBQ technician.
• If the grill is installed by a professional installer or technician, be sure that he/she shows you where your gas supply shut-off is located. All gas lines must have a shut-off that is readily and easily accessible. If you smell gas, check for gas leaks immediately. Check only with a soap and water solution. Never check for gas leaks with an open flame
• Inspect the LP gas supply hose prior to each use of the grill. If there is evidence of excessive abrasion or wear, or the hose is cut, it must be replaced before using the grill.
• The outdoor cooking gas appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 0.5 psi (3.5 kPa).

LOCATION OF YOUR GRILL | CLEARANCES

ISLAND INSTALLATIONS | NON-COMBUSTIBLECONSTRUCTION

The XO Built in grills are designed for easy installation into a non-combustible masonry island.

In installations of this type non-combustible materials like brick, stone or cement board completely surround the appliances supported by block or metal framing.

Hood Clearance 7"

No materials shall be used within 12" of the unit that will burn or be affected by the high heat the unit can produce.

The grill slides into the cutout opening of the island and is supported by the flanges that surround the grill sides and rear. Do not grout the unit in place so that it can be removed for maintenance.

In addition to a 12" non-combustible materials clearance in all directions; proper hood operation requires a 7" clear space minimum behind the unit.

ISLAND INSTALLATIONS | COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION

Island construction which employs some combustible materials is permitted providing certain additional requirements are met.

Combustible materials include any surface or framing materials which may ignite, burn, support combustion, emit smoke or melt when exposed to heat.

An approved, insulated jacket designed to shield each gas appliance must be used.

All minimum clearances to adjacent combustible construction must be increased to 14" on the sides and 16" to the rear of the grill.

Distance Minimum 14" 16" Combustible Materials 16"

NEVER INSTALL OR USE YOUR GRILL IN ANY ENCLOSED SPACE SUCH AS, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, GARAGES, PORCHES OR BREEZEWAYS. NEVER USE YOUR GRILL ON ELEVATED PATIOS OR DECKS. NEVER INSTALL OR USE UNDERNEATH UNPROTECTED OVERHEAD CONSTRUCTION.

GRILL LOCATION

WHERE IS THE WIND COMING FROM?

When selecting a suitable location, consider important factors such as exposure to the wind and foot-traffic patterns.

If you have a free standing grill, position it so the prevailing wind blows toward the front control panel (at your back when grilling). This will support the proper front to rear of airflow required for proper operation of your grill.

Built-in grills located in areas with prevailing winds should be protected by a wind barrier positioned behind the appliance. All clearances must be observed for safe operation.

CORRECT WIND DIRECTION WIND BREAK WIND BREAK REQUIRED

FAILURE TO COMPENSATE FOR PREVAILING WIND CAN RESULT IN EXCESSIVE HEAT BUILD UP AND RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE APPLIANCE AND RISK OF FIRE, PROPERTY DAMAGE OR PERSONAL INJURY.

If you suspect the grill is overheating, using an heat resistant mitt, open the hood. After first checking the control knobs for excessive temperature, turn them down to a lower setting.

If you have a freestanding grill - turn it OFF, and after allowing it to cool, reposition the grill based on prevailing wind patterns as described above.

OR - install a wind break to prevent the wind from interfering with the correct front to back exchange of air.

On windy days, do not operate the grill on high with the hood closed for more than 15 minutes.

Never leave your grill unattended while operating.

Your XO Grill must draw air in from the front and exhaust heated air from the rear in order to operate.

Position your grill so that smoke and exhaust will not gain access to the house through open windows, doors or ventilation.

OVERHEAD CONSTRUCTION

• If installed under any combustible construction the area above the cooking surface of the grill must be covered with an approved exhaust hood.
• It is highly recommended the hood be sized with a minimum 3" overhang on all exposed sides.
  • The exhaust hood shall provide no less than 1,200 CFM of proper exhaust ventilation.
• The exhaust hood must be approved for outdoor installation and used with a dedicated GFCI branch circuit.

OVERHEAD CONSTRUCTION We recommend oversizing the hood by 3" on each side to maximize efficiency and capture space For example; A 36" Grill would require a 42" Hood 60" Minimum above cooking surface to non-combustible overhead. COMBUSTIBLE Overhead Construction Must Be Protected By An Approved Hood REAR WALL NON-COMBUSTIBLE 7" min. 30" to 36" Use Of An Approved Hood Is Highly Recommended With Non-Combustible Overhead Construction OBSERVE ALL MINIMUM CLEARANCES Non-Combustible Construction Sides 12" Back 7" Combustible Construction Sides 14" Back 16"

INSULATED JACKET INSTALLATION

IMPORTANT: Before you build the frame, you must take into account the total weight of the liner, grill, other appliances, countertop and all other finishing materials.

XO Outdoor cooking appliances operate at very HIGH TEMPERATURES. It is absolutely essential to install an insulated jacket whenever combustible materials are used in the construction of your outdoor kitchen. Failure to isolate the cooking appliances within an approved insulated jacket can result in fire, property damage, personal injury or death. Combustible materials include anything which will burn, emit smoke, melt or support combustion.

Refer to the table on page 18 for the correct dimensions to install the insulated jacket..

Determine the entry point for your gas and electrical connections. Create your 4" x 4" rear or bottom utility access based on location requirements.

Use a carpenter's level to ensure the framing is level both side to side and front to back.

NEVER under any circumstances run the gas line or electrical wiring between the grill and the insulated jacket. All excess electrical wire leads must be pulled out beyond the insulated jacket. Never attempt to install the transformer between the liner and grill.

LINER INSTALLATION

Position the liner in the frame. No part of the combustible construction can protrude above the top or beyond the front surface face of the liner. Shim the liner as necessary.

APPLIANCE INSTALLATION - CAUTION HEAVY LIFT

Remove the grates from the grill to reduce its weight and using two people, place the grill into the liner. The side and rear flanges of the grill are designed to rest on top of the stainless flanges of the liner without additional fasteners. The grill must be able to be removed for maintenance and service, do not grout the grill in place.

FINISHING

If desired the gap, if any, between the liner and the counter may be filled with non-combustible sealant.

WARNING

• Never install this product into a structure built using combustible materials without an insulated jacket. Doing so risks Fire, Property Damage, Injury or Death.
• Observe and follow ALL set backs and clearances set forth in this manual.
• For outdoor installation only - Never install or operate in an enclosed space.
• Observe and follow ALL overhead clearances set forth in this manual.
• Installation must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with either the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Natural Gas and propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1, or Propane Storage and Handling Code, B149.2, in Canada.

OUTDOOR KITCHEN VENTING

REQUIRED FOR ALL OUTDOOR KITCHEN INSTALLATIONS

Proper venting is essential for all installations regardless of the materials of construction.

1. Correctly installed venting helps ensure adequate airflow necessary for combustion to take place safely.

2. AND properly installed cross ventilation helps ensure that, in the event of a leak, gas is not trapped within the enclosed space inside.

EXTREME DANGER

Gas leakage within a confined space poses an extreme danger of fire and/or explosion. Adequate cross ventilation is absolutely essential.

EXAMPLE 10" 1"

Natural Gas is lighter than air. Vents should be placed 10" below the countertop.

Propane is heavier than air. Vents should be placed 1" minimum above ground level.

NON-CUMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL MIN 7" NON-CUMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL MINIMUM 20 SQ IN OF VENTILATION REQUIRED ON EACH END OF CABINET. 5" MAXIMUM 5" MAXIMUM MINIMUM 10 SQ IN OF VENTILATION REQUIRED ON EACH END OF CABINET. 1" MAXIMUM

A minimum of three 10 in ^2 (65 cm ^2 ) of ventilation openings must be provided at the bottom of the back, left and right sides of your enclosure (island).

A minimum of three 20 in ^2 (130 cm ^2 ) of ventilation openings must be provided at the top of both left, right and back sides of your enclosure (island) where the top of the opening aligns with the bottom of the grill cut-out.

These openings are required to safely dissipate gas vapors if there is a leak in your enclosure.

ELECTRICAL HOOK UP

The grill lighting system is powered by a 60W transformer included with the grill.

It must be mounted with the three prong cord set pointing down. All wiring should be routed away from all hot surfaces and gas lines.

Note: In order for the rotisserie, LED and halogen lights to work the rotisserie motor and grill must both be plugged into a properly grounded GFCI outlet installed by an electrician.

Your XO gas grill is designed for use with either Natural Gas or Propane (LP).

HOWEVER, it must be set up correctly to use one or the other fuel. Different fuels cannot be used interchangeably.

Operation with using natural gas requires different burner orifices and a different regulator set up than for propane and vice versa.

If your grill has been set up for to use one type of fuel and you wish to power it with the other fuel - the appliance must be converted for that use. A gas conversion should only be performed by an experienced gas appliance technician.

Every gas installation must include a readily accessible emergency shut off valve close to the grill. The valve should be at the gas supply source outdoors after the gas line exits the outer wall of the house and before it connects to the flex line or QD line. If the gas line is to be buried, it should connected before it enters the ground. It is highly recommended that the valve have the ability to lock when closed to prevent accidental opening. Any locking or security device cannot interfere with the ability to rapidly close the valve in an emergency. Some locations require this locking feature by code.

XO Grill are shipped as customer specified set up for use with Natural Gas or Propane. This is designated by the last letter of the model number. Confirm the correct fuel type before installation.

If the model number ends with “L” the unit has been set up to burn Propane. If the model number ends with “N” the unit has been set up to burn Natural Gas.

In either case, the unit is shipped with the appropriate regulator. Natural Gas regulators operate with an outlet pressure of 4 "W.C. and Propane regulators operate at 11" W.C.

All threaded fittings must be properly sealed with pipe compound or tape with has been approved for use on gas systems.

During gas system pressure testing, (equal to or exceeding 1/2 PSI - 3.5 KPa), the gas grill must be disconnected from the supply using the isolation shut-off valve.

GAS LEAK TESTING

WARNING

Regardless of whether you are powering your grill with Propane or Natural Gas - Leak Testing of all connections and components is an essential step to ensure the safe use of the appliance.

Leak testing is easy to do and MUST be performed: Before the First Use, whenever a gas line supply component (such as a propane tank) is changed, whenever a gas leak is suspected, or once a year as general maintenance.

PERFORMING A LEAK TEST - Either with a leak detector or by the simple method below:

■ Prepare a mixture of 50% liquid dish soap and 50% water.
■ Remove or extinguish all open flames or potential ignition sources - NO SMOKING whenever gas may be present. NEVER test for the presence of gas using a match or open flame.
- Sparks or open flames may ignite a fire or explosion resulting in property damage, personal injury or death!
■ Ensure that all control knobs are in the OFF position.
- Open the local gas supply valve (either at the propane tank or natural gas line)
- Using a spray bottle or brush, liberally coat ALL the gas line connections, hoses, manifolds, regulators and valves.

LP GAS TANK SAFETY

LP Gas grill models are designed to use a standard 20lb. Liquid Propane Gas (LP Gas) tank, sold separately. Do not connect your gas grill to an LP tank that exceeds this capacity. This is a tank approximately 12" in diameter and 18-1/2" tall.

The tank must have an Overfill Prevention Device, "OPD", installed. This is a safety device which prevents filling the cylinder beyond its rated capacity, which can cause the LP tank to malfunction.

The LP Gas tank must be constructed and marked in accordance with the Specifications for LP-Gas Cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportation (D.O.T.) or the National Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA-B339, Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for Transportation of Dangerous Goods, and Commission: as applicable.

The LP Gas tank must have a shutoff valve, terminating in an LP Gas supply tank valve outlet, that is compatible with a Type 1 tank connection device. The LP Gas tank must also have a safety relief device that has a direct connection with the vapor space of the tank. The tank supply system must be arranged for vapor withdrawal.

The LP Gas tank must have a collar to protect the tank valve. Never connect an unregulated LP gas tank to your gas grill. The gas regulator assembly supplied with your gas grill is adjusted to have an outlet pressure of 11" water column (W.C.) for connection to an LP gas tank. Only use the regulator and hose assembly supplied with your gas grill.

Replacement hose and regulator assembly must be identical to those listed in the parts list of this Operating Manual as specified by XO.

Have your LP Gas dealer check the release valve after every filling to ensure it remains free of defects. Always keep LP Gas tank in upright position. Do not subject the LP Gas tank to excessive heat. Never store an LP Gas tank indoors. If you store your gas grill in the garage always disconnect the LP Gas tank first and store it safely outside. LPGas tanks must be stored outdoors in a well-ventilated area and out of the reach of children. Disconnected LP Gas tanks must not be stored in a building, garage or any other enclosed area.

The regulator and hose assembly can be seen by opening the cart or island doors. They must be inspected before each use of the grill. If the hose is damaged in any way, it must be replaced prior to using the grill. The gas grill is set up to operate with an LP gas cylinder equipped with an OPD (overfilling prevention device).

NOTE: LP Tank is secured in the cart by a bolt which locks it in place. Air Vents Air Vents Air Vents

The grill cart has air vents on three sides to allow for the release of excess vapor.

SAFETY NOTICE

Always shut the tank valve when not in use.

Excessive heat can cause vapor to be released from the cylinder when not in use.

Never connect any appliance directly to a gas line. The correct pressure regulator must be installed on all gas equipment. All local codes require it. XO supplies the correct regulator with your grill.

Failure to install or removal of the gas regulator supplied with your grill can result in fire and/or serious personal injury. It will also void the equipment warranty.

Do not use any gas regulator/assembly except the one supplied for your unit by XO.

WARNING | PROPANE TANKS

When not in use - shut the gas valve OFF at the tank.

Never store spare propane tanks under or near the grill.

If storing the grill indoors - remove the propane tank.

Use only the valve dust cap supplied with disconnected tanks.

Tanks must be stored outdoors in a secure, well ventilated area.

Never fill propane tanks beyond 80% of their rated capacity.

  • Always keep the hood open when lighting your grill.
• Releasing fuel into a closed grill before lighting will increase the risk of explosion, property damage, personal injury or death.
• Keep your face and body as far from the grill as possible when lighting. Any time a burner doesn't light within 5 seconds, turn off the control, wait 5 minutes for gas to dissipate, and repeat the lighting procedure.
• NEVER LEAVE THE GRILL UNATTENDED WHILE COOKING.

GRILLING SAFETY

NEVER leave the grill unattended..

NEVER operate a grill that has not successfully undergone a leak test.

Prior to the first use - make certain that all packing materials and tie downs have been removed from the interior of the grill, the grates have been washed and given a light coat of canola oil.

Avoid wearing loose-fitting garments while grilling.

Assume all surfaces are hot. Do not touch the grill racks, hood or immediate surrounding metal surfaces with bare hands - these areas become extremely hot during use and could cause burns.

Use an insulated glove or mitt when opening and operating the grill.

Open the grill hood slowly to allow heat and smoke to escape before fully opening.

Open the grill hood fully when lighting.

Never lean over hot grill surface or look directly into the grill when lighting.

Do not heat unopened food containers.

Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of the grill. Severe damage can result and void your warranty

Never use charcoal in this gas grill.

Excessively fatty foods can cause flare-ups. Damage caused as a result of unsupervised use or flare-ups will void the warranty.

Never grill without the drip pan in place. Failure to ensure that the drip pan is properly inserted can result in a grease fire.

Grease is extremely flammable. Let hot grease cool down completely before disposing of it. The drip tray should be cleaned after every use.

Before grilling, lightly oil the grates with canola before lighting the burners and preheat for 10 minutes for best performance.

NEVER operate the grill under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

GRILLING TIPS

TEMPERATURE SETTINGS

HIGH Setting - Use this setting only for fast warm-up, for searing steaks and chops, and for burning food residue from the cooking grids after the cookout is over.

MEDIUM Setting - Use this setting for most grilling, roasting or baking, and for cooking hamburgers and vegetables.

LOW Setting - Use this setting for all smoke cooking, rotisserie cooking, and when cooking very lean cuts such as fish.

COOK FOOD TO PROPER TEMPERATURES

Cooking food safely requires that you raise the internal temperature of the meat high enough and for a long enough period of time to kill any food-borne bacteria that may cause illnesses.

Color is not the best indicator that food is safe to eat. Use a high-quality probe thermometer to be sure your food is properly cooked. Place the tip of an instant-read thermometer into the center of the thickest part of the food but at least 1/2 inch deep. Read the temperature after about 10 seconds. Follow the temperature guidelines for the type of food you're cooking.

The following guidelines are from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition.

COOK TO INTERNAL TEMP
Meat And Poultry Medium	Rare Medium Well	Done
Fresh Beef - Medium Rare 145°F	160°F 170°F

GRILLING METHODS

DIRECT COOKING METHOD

Direct cooking involves placing food on grates over direct heat. Use this method for foods that take less than 20 minutes to cook or use it to sear larger items before or after indirect cooking.

Place the food to be cooked directly on the preheated grates above firing burners and leave until they no longer stick. Turning too soon and too often are two of the most common grilling mistakes.

Use a meat thermometer to achieve desired doneness and remove items one degree below how you would like to enjoy them, as the resting period before carving or consuming will raise the temperature.

INDIRECT COOKING METHOD

The indirect cooking method is a popular alternative to direct heat grilling. Indirect cooking uses heat from adjacent burners to cook food and, in many cases, this reduces the potential to overcook or overly brown food. The most common uses are for items that benefit from slower cooking such as breads or thicker cuts of chicken or roasts. Indirect cooking involves placing the food on grates above burners that are off and closing the grill hood to create an oven effect.

Items you usually oven-roast can be grilled to perfection using indirect heating. Preheat the burners surrounding the food to be cooked. Place a basting pan below the grates directly on the flame tamers under the food containing water or marinaide to prevent the natural juices from burning or evaporating.

GRILLING METHODS

ROTISSERIE

Rotisserie is mostly used to cook large pieces of meat and poultry to assure slow, even cooking. Constant turning provides a self-basting action, making food cooked on a rotisserie exceptionally moist and juicy. Rotisserie cooking generally requires 1 ½ to 4½ hrs to cook depending on the size and type of meat being cooked. You can have rotisserie cooking with indirect heat as shown or with infrared rotisserie burner.

For successful rotissering, the meat should be centered and balanced as evenly as possible on the spit rod to avoid overworking the rotisserie motor.

Since indirect heat is often used in cooking on a rotisserie, a foil or aluminum drip pan is advisable to prevent excessive flare-ups. Generally, the cooking grates are removed to allow for the swing of the rotisserie. A basting pan is placed under the rotisserie area on top of the flame tamers to catch the drippings.

CAUTION

Remove or tilt the warming rack up to prevent interference with the turning spit.

A LITTLE TLC GOES A LONG WAY

GRILL CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Proper care and maintenance will keep your grill in top operating condition and prolong its life. Follow these cleaning procedures on a timely basis and your grill will stay clean and operate with minimal effort. CAUTION: Be certain your grill is off and cool before cleaning.

CLEANING THE COOKING GRATES

Before initial use, and periodically thereafter, wash your Cooking Grids in a mild soap and warm water solution. Use a wash cloth or vegetable brush to scrub them clean. After washing and before cooking, apply a light coating of a high temperature cooking oil like canola to the grate surface.

CLEANING THE FLAME TAMERS

Periodically wash the Flame Tamers in soap and warm water using a vegetable brush to remove stubborn burnt-on cooking residue. Dry the Flame Tamers thoroughly before you reinstall them.

CLEANING THE DRIP TRAY

To reduce the chance of fire, the drip tray should be visually inspected before each grill use. Remove any grease and wash drip tray with a mild soap and warm water solution.

CLEANING INSIDE THE GRILL HOOD

Grease can build up on the inside of the hood over time and can drip outside the grill when opened. Visually inspect the inside of the hood before each use. Remove any grease and wash with a mild soap and warm water solution.

ROUTINE CLEANING OF THE GRILL INTERIOR

Burning-off excess food after every cookout will keep it ready for instant use. However, at least every 6 months you must give the entire grill a thorough cleaning to minimize risk of grease fires and keep your grill in top shape.

FOLLOW THESE STEPS:

1. Turn all control knobs off and turn off the gas supply (LP or Natural Gas)
2. Remove and clean the grates, flame tamers, warming rack, zone dividers and burners.
3. Scrape out and brush debris from the inside and bottom of the fire box. Then wash the interior with a fiber pad or nylon brush and a mild soap and warm water solution - rinse thoroughly and allow to dry.
4. Check all orifices for any obstructions.
5. Replace the burners, ensuring they are correctly centered on and overlapping each orifice.
6. Replace the flame tamers, zone dividers, warming rack and grates
7. Brush all vents, whether in a cart of built-in installation, free of any dirt or debris.
8. Reconnect the gas, ignite the burners and check the flame for correct operation.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

CARING FOR STAINLESS STEEL

Wash regularly with clean fresh water, mild detergent and a microfiber cloth. After washing rinse with clean water and wipe the surface dry with a microfiber cloth. Be certain to go with the grain on brushed stainless steel. Generally you should wash your stainless steel every three months. In areas where the grill is exposed to high salt concentrations or chlorine such as coastal regions or near swimming pools, your stainless should be washed every two weeks. Failure to maintain the finish in such environments will lead to tea staining and corrosion. For better protection use a thin coating of protectant on the surface.

Common conditions that cause corrosion or discoloration of stainless steel:

1. Chloride containing cleansers – this includes bleach and any cleaners containing bleach
2. Muriatic acid (hydrochloric acid) – commonly used to clean up after tile/concrete installation
3. Concentrated soap residue – chemical additives will cause discoloration and some dried soaps actually look like rust
4. Water with high iron content – can leave a rusty residue, especially if allowed to drip continuously
5. Contact with iron materials – including steel wool, iron residue/dust from installation or cleaning of other steel products
6. Don't allow trapped moisture between the product and cover – rubber mats, metal cans or cleaning products trapped moisture - allow cabinets to completely dry before covering.
7. Salts – contain chlorides
8. Extreme Heat by Flame
9. Do not permit citrus or tomato juice to remain on stainless steel surfaces.
10. Avoid all abrasive cleaners, steel wool or abrasive cloths as they will scratch the surface.

OXIDIZATION Removal

If you have oxidation there are a few steps to take to bring your stainless appliances back to “like new” condition. Apply clean water with a cleaning sponge and rub gently in the direction of the grain. If the mark won’t shift, it may be necessary to use a stainless steel cleaner, in which case apply the cleaner and rub gently. After cleaning it is important to rinse the stainless steel with clean fresh water and buff with a soft coth, always rubbing with the grain. Rubbing across the grain can damage the finish and the stainless will lose its shine.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE - BURNERS

Before removing burners ensure the gas supply is off and the knobs are in the "off" position. Make sure the grill has completely cooled before proceeding.

TO REMOVE BURNERS:

Remove the grill racks, vaporizers and zone dividers. Remove the pin holding the burner in place. Grasp the burner, pull it up and slightly to the rear of the unit, so the burner head comes off the brass orifice at the front and remove. Be careful not to upset the air shutter position.

BURNER CLEANING:

To maximize grill performance, clean the exterior of the burner with a wire brush. Clear stubborn scale with a metal scraper. Clear any clogged ports with a straightened paper clip. Never use a wooden toothpick as it may break off and clog the port. Shake out any debris through the air shutter. Use a flashlight to inspect the burner inlet to ensure it is not blocked. If obstructions can be seen, use a metal wire coat hanger that has been straightened out to clean.

BETTER AIR ADJUSTMENT:

Each grill burner is tested and adjusted at the factory prior to shipment; however, variations in the local gas supply or a conversion from one gas to another may make it necessary to adjust the burners. The flames of the grill burners should be visually checked, adjusting the air shutter by opening the air shutter and slowly closing it until the flame starts to yellow. STOP and turn back 1/16", and tighten the screw. Flame should be blue with yellow tips when adjusted correctly.

WARNING

It is critical to center every burner on its orifice. If this is not done there will be a possible fire or explosion

WARNING

For safe operation, make sure the Orifices are inside the Burner Tubes before using your grill. See figure. If the Orifice is not inside the Burner Tube, lighting the Burner may cause explosion and/or fire resulting in serious bodily injury and/or property damage.

Please Note that the air mixture for LP gas and NG is different. Your gas grill will come preset for your gas type. If you find that you are not getting the best flame you can adjust the air shutter and the O2 mix with gas will change the flame. The flame coming from your burner is extremely important. If the flame is not correct you will be able to adjust the flame as described in the section below.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE - BURNERS

WARNING

Spiders and small insects can spin webs and nest in the grill burner venturi which can lead to a gas flow obstruction resulting in a fire in and around the burner tubes. This type of "FLASHBACK FIRE" can cause serious grill damage and create an unsafe operating condition for the user.

To reduce the chance of FLASHBACK FIRE you must inspect and clean the venturi at least twice a year in summer and fall, whenever spiders are active in your area, or if your grill has not been used for an extended period of time.

Remove the pin from the rear of each burner tube using needle nose pliers. Carefully lift each burner up and away from the gas valve oriface. Check the burner venturi tubes for insects and nests and clean as shown below. A clogged tube can lead to a fire beneath the grill.

FOR CLEANING, REFER TO

METHODS 1-3 BELOW:

METHOD 1: Bend a stiff wire or wire coat hanger into a small hook as shown and run the hook through the Burner Tube and inside the Burner several times to remove debris.

METHOD 2: Use a bottle brush with a flexible handle and run the brush through the Burner Tube and inside the Burner several times to remove any debris.

METHOD 3: Use an air hose to force air through each Burner Tube. The forced air should pass debris or obstructions through the Burner and out the Ports.
