Side Burner Igniterwww.napoleongrills.com
Main Burner Use: When searing foods, we recommend preheang the grill by operang all main burners in the high posion with the lid closed for approximately 10 minutes. Food cooked for short periods of me (sh, vegetables) can be grilled with the lid open. Cooking with the lid closed will ensure higher, more even temperatures that can reduce cooking me and cook meat more evenly. Food that has a cooking me longer than 30 minutes, such as roasts, can be cooked indirectly (with the burner lit opposite to the food placement). When cooking very lean meats, such as chicken breasts or lean pork, the grids can be oiled before pre-heang to reduce scking. Cooking meat with a high degree of fat content can create are-ups. Either trim the fat or reduce temperatures to inhibit this. Should a are-up occur, move food away from the ames and reduce the heat. Leave the lid open. See Your All Season Grill cookbook by Napoleon for more detailed instrucons. Direct Cooking: Place food to be cooked on the grill directly over the heat. This method is generally used for searing or for foods that do not require prolonged cooking mes such as hamburgers, steaks, chicken pieces, or vegetables. The food is rst seared to trap-in the juices and avor, and then the temperature is lowered to nish cooking the food to your preference. Indirect Cooking: With one or more burners operang, place food to be cooked on the grill over a burner that is not operang. The heat circulates around the food, cooking slowly and evenly. Cooking with this method is much the same as cooking in your oven and is generally used for larger cuts of meats such as roasts, chickens or turkeys, but can also be used for cooking foods that are prone to are-ups or for smoking foods. Lower temperatures and slower cooking mes result in tender foods. Cooking Instrucons Inial Lighng: When lit for the rst me, the gas grill emits a slight odor. This is a normal temporary condion caused by the “burn-in” of internal paints and lubricants used in the manufacturing process and does not occur again. Simply run the main burners on high for approximately one-half hour. Flame Side Burner Use (if equipped): The side burner can be used like any stove top burner, for gravies, soups etc. For best performance, the gas grill should be located with the side burner protected from the wind. The recommended pan diameter is 10” (25 cm). WARNING! Never grill food directly on the side burner grate. It is designed for use with pots and pans only. WARNING! Do not close the side burner lid while it is operang or hot. WARNING! Do not use side burner to deep fry foods as cooking with oil can create a dangerous situaon.www.napoleongrills.com
Infrared Heat Most people don’t realize that the heat source we are most familiar with, our sun, warms the earth using mainly infrared energy. This is a form of electro-magnec energy with a wavelength just greater than the red end of the visible light spectrum but less than a radio wave. This energy was discovered in 1800 by Sir William Herschel who dispersed sunlight into its component colors using a prism. He showed that most of the heat in the beam fell into the spectral region just beyond the red end of the spectrum, where no visible light existed. Most materials readily absorb infrared energy in a wide range of wavelengths, causing an increase in its temperature. The same phenomenon causes us to feel warmth when we are exposed to sunlight. The infrared rays from the sun travel through the vacuum of space, through the atmosphere, and penetrate our skin. This causes increased molecular acvity in the skin, which creates internal fricon and generates heat, allowing us to feel warmth. Foods cooked over infrared heat sources are heated by the same principle. Charcoal grilling is our most familiar choice for infrared cooking. The glowing briquees emit infrared energy to the food being cooked with very lile drying eect. Any juices or oils that escape from the food drip onto the charcoal and vaporize into smoke giving the food its delicious grilled taste. The Napoleon infrared burner cooks in the same way. In each burner, 10,000 ports – each with its own ny ame – cause the surface of the ceramic le to glow red. This glow emits the same type of infrared heat to the food as charcoal, without its hassle or mess. Infrared burners also provide a more consistently heated area that is far easier to regulate than a charcoal re. For instant searing, the burners can be set to high, yet they can also be turned down for slower cooking. We all know how dicult that is on a charcoal re. Tradional gas burners heat the food in a dierent way. The air surrounding the burner is heated by the combuson process and then rises to the food being cooked. This generates lower grill temperatures that are ideal for more delicate cuisine such as seafood or vegetables, whereas Napoleon’s infrared burners produce searing heat for juicier, taser steaks, hamburgers and other meats. For cooking mes and ps refer to the Infrared Grilling Chart. Infrared Side Burner Use: The gas grill should be located so that the side burner is protected from the wind, because the wind will adversely aect its performance. The recommended pan diameter is 10” (25 cm). WARNING! Do not close the side burner lid while it is operang or hot. WARNING! Do not adjust cooking grid while hot or operang. WARNING! Do not use side burner to deep fry foods as cooking with oil can create a dangerous situaon.
1. Follow the infrared side burner lighng instrucons and operate on high for 5 minutes with the lid
opened or unl the ceramic burners glow red.
2. Place food on grills and cook according to mes listed in the Infrared Grilling Chart.
3. Depending upon your taste, connue cooking over infrared burners on high, medium or low, turning
food frequently, or place food on the main burner area of the grill, close lid, and allow oven temperature to slowly nish cooking your food. CAUTION! Due to the intense heat the infrared burners provide, food le unaended over burners will burn quickly. Keep the lid open when cooking with the infrared burners. Protecon Of Your Infra Red Burners: The infrared burners of your grill are designed to provide a long service life. However, there are steps you must take to prevent cracking of their ceramic surfaces, which will cause the burners to malfuncon.
- Never let water come in direct contact with your ceramic burner.
- Do not allow hard objects to impact the infra red burner.
- Do not allow cold water (rain, sprinkler, hose, etc.) to come in contact with hot ceramic burners. A large temperature dierenal can cause cracking of the ceramic le.
- Keep the lid closed when the side burner is not in use.
- Aer cooking operate the burner on high for 5 minutes, to burn o any drippings and debris. Damage caused by failure to follow these steps is not covered by your grill warranty.www.napoleongrills.com

WARNING! Always wear protecve gloves and safety glasses when servicing your grill. WARNING! To avoid the possibility of burns, maintenance should be done only when the grill is cool. Avoid unprotected contact with hot surfaces. Ensure all burners are turned o. Clean grill in an area where cleaning soluons will not harm decks, lawns, or paos. Do not use oven cleaner to clean any part of this gas grill. Do not use a self-cleaning oven to clean cooking grids or any other parts of the gas grill. Barbe cue sauce and salt can be corrosive and will cause rapid deterioraon of the gas grill components unless cleaned regularly. Cleaning Instrucons Note: Stainless steel tends to oxidize or stain in the presence of chlorides and suldes, parcularly in coastal areas and other harsh environments, such as the warm, highly humid atmosphere around pools and hot tubs. These stains could be perceived as rust, but can be easily removed or prevented. To provide stain prevenon and removal, wash all stainless steel and chrome surfaces every 3-4 weeks or as oen as required with fresh water and/or stainless steel cleaner. Control Panel: The control panel text is printed directly on the stainless steel and with proper maintenance will remain dark and legible. To clean the panel, use only warm soapy water or stainless steel cleaner available from your Napoleon dealer. Never apply abrasive cleaners on any stainless surfaces, especially the printed poron of the control panel or the prinng will gradually rub o. Cleaning Inside The Gas Grill: Remove the cooking grids. Use a brass wire brush to clean loose debris from the casng sides and underneath the lid. Scrape the sear plates with a puy knife or scraper, and use a wire brush to remove the ash. Remove the sear plates and brush debris from the burners with the brass wire brush. Sweep all debris from inside the gas grill into the drip pan. Infrared Burners: Because of the high intensity of the infrared burner, most drippings and food parcles that fall onto the burner surface are immediately incinerated. However, some debris and residue may remain. To remove this residue aer cooking, operate the grill on high for 5-10 minutes. Do not clean the ceramic le with a wire brush. Grids And Warming Rack: The grids and warming rack are best cleaned with a brass wire brush during the pre-heang period. Steel wool can be used for stubborn stains. It is normal that stainless grids (if equipped) will discolor permanently from regular usage due to the high temperature of the cooking surface. Cast Iron Cooking Grids: The cast iron cooking grids supplied with your new grill oer superior heat retenon and distribuon. By regularly seasoning your grids you are adding a protecve coang, which will aid in resisng corrosion and increase your grids non-sck capabilies. First Time Use: Wash the cooking grids by hand with mild dish soap and water to remove any residue from the manufacturing process (never wash in a dish washer). Rinse thoroughly with hot water and dry completely with a so cloth. This is important to avoid moisture from entering the cast iron. Seasoning: Using a so cloth, spread VEGETABLE SHORTENING over the enre grid surface ensuring all grooves and corners are covered. Do not use salted fats such as buer or margarine. Pre-heat your grill for 15 minutes, then place the seasoned cooking grids in the grill. Turn the burner control knobs to medium with the lid closed. Allow the cooking grids to heat for approximately one-half hour. Turn all the burners to the “OFF” posion and turn the gas o at the source. Let the cooking grids stand unl cool. This procedure should be repeated several mes throughout the season, although it is not required for daily use (follow daily usage procedure below). Daily Usage: Before pre-heang, and cleaning with a brass wire grill brush, coat the enre top surface of the cooking grids with VEGETABLE SHORTENING. Pre-heat the grill and then brush away any unwanted residue with a brass wire brush. Stainless Steel Cooking Grids: (upgrade kit available - see replacement parts list). Stainless steel cooking grids are durable and corrosion resistant. They require less seasoning and maintenance than cast iron cooking grids. It is recommended that you follow the daily usage procedure listed above although you may nd pre-heang and cleaning your grids with a wire brush is sucient for your grilling needs.www.napoleongrills.com
Cleaning The Outer Grill Surface: Do not use abrasive cleaners or steel wool on any painted, porcelain or stain less steel parts of your Napoleon Grill. Doing so will scratch the nish. Exterior grill surfaces should be cleaned with warm soapy water while the metal is sll warm to the touch. To clean stainless surfaces, use a stainless steel or a non-abrasive cleaner. Always wipe in the direcon of the grain. Over me, stainless steel parts discolor when heated, usually to a golden or brown hue. This discoloraon is normal and does not aect the performance of the grill. Porcelain enamel components must be handled with addional care. The baked-on enamel nish is glass-like, and will chip if struck. Touch-up enamel is available from your Napoleon Grill dealer. WARNING! Always wear protecve gloves and safety glasses when cleaning your grill. WARNING! Turn o the gas at the source and disconnect the unit before servicing. To avoid the possibility of burns, maintenance should be done only when the grill is cool. A leak test must be performed annually and whenever any component of the gas train is replaced or gas smell is present. Maintenance Instrucons We recommend this gas grill be thoroughly inspected and serviced annually by a qualied service person. At all mes keep the gas grill area free from combusble materials, gasoline and other ammable vapors and liquids. Do not obstruct the ow of venlaon and combuson air. Keep the cylinder enclosure venlaon openings (located on the cart sides and at the front and back of the boom shelf) free and clear from debris. Light Blue Yellow Tipping Dark Blue Burner Burner Port Approximately 1/2” (13mm) Combuson Air Adjustment: (This must be done by a qualied gas installer.) The air shuer is factory set and should not need adjusng under normal condions. Under extreme eld condions, adjustments might be required. When the air shuer is adjusted correctly the ames will be dark blue, pped with light blue and occasionally yellow.
- With too lile air ow to the burner, the ames are lazy yellow and can produce soot.
- With too much air ow, the ames li erracally and can cause dicules when lighng. Adjusng the air shuer:
1. Remove cooking grids and sear plates and leave lid open. You may have to open the door or remove
the top drawer (if equipped) to access the air-shuer screw located at the mouth of the burner. The back cover must be removed for rear tube burner air shuer adjustment.
2. Loosen air-shuer lock screw and open or close air shuer as required. The normal opening sengs are:
Main Tube Burner Propane 3/16” (5mm) Natural 1/8” (3mm) *Infra-Red burners have no air adjustment.
3. Light the burners and set to high. Visually inspect burner ames. When the shuers are set correctly, turn
burners o, ghten locking screws, and replace removed parts. Ensure that the insect screens are installed. WARNING! Accumulated grease is a re hazard. Drip Pan: Clean the drip pan frequently (every 4 – 5 uses or as oen as required) to avoid grease buildup. Grease and excess drippings pass through to the drip pan, located beneath the gas grill and accumulate in the disposable grease tray below the drip pan. To access the disposable grease tray or to clean the drip pan, slide the drip pan free of the grill. Never line the drip pan with aluminum foil, sand or any other material as this could prevent the grease from owing properly. The pan should be scraped out with a puy knife or scraper. Replace the disposable grease tray every 2 – 4 weeks, depending on gas grill usage. For supplies, see your Napoleon Grill dealer.www.napoleongrills.com
WARNING! When reinstalling the burner aer cleaning it is very important that the valve/orice enters the burner tube before lighng your gas grill. If the valve is not inside the burner tube a re or explosion could occur. Protecon Of Infrared Burners: The infrared burners of your grill are designed to provide a long service life, though care must taken to prevent cracking of their ceramic surfaces. Fractures will cause the burners to malfuncon. The following provides a few of the causes of cracks and the steps you can take to avoid them. Damage caused by failure to follow these steps is not covered by your grill warranty.
1. Impact with hard objects - Never allow hard objects to strike the ceramic. Take care when inserng or
removing cooking grates and accessories into or from the grill.
2. Contact with water or other liquids - Cold liquids contacng the hot ceramic surfaces can cause them
to break. Never throw water into the grill to douse a ame. If the ceramic or interior of a burner becomes wet while not in use, later operaon of the burner can create steam, which can produce sucient pressure to crack the ceramic. Repeated soaking of the ceramic can also cause it to swell and expand. This expansion causes undue pressure on the ceramic that can cause it to crack and crumble.
i) Never throw water into the grill to control are-ups.
ii) Do not aempt to operate the infrared burners in open air while raining.
iii) If you nd standing water in your grill (because of exposure to rainfall, sprinklers, etc.), inspect the
ceramic for evidence of possible watersoaking. If the ceramic appears to be wet, remove the burner from the grill. Turn it upside down to drain the excess water and bring indoors to dry thoroughly.
3. Impaired venlaon of hot air from the grill - For the burners to funcon properly, hot air must have a
way to escape the grill. If the hot air is not allowed to escape, the burners can become deprived of oxygen causing them to back-ash. If this occurs repeatedly, the ceramic could crack. Never cover more than 75% of the cooking surface with solid metal (i.e., griddle or large pan).
4. Incorrect cleaning - Do not clean the ceramic le with a wire brush. If debris is collecng on your
burner, light the burner and operate on high for 5 minutes with the lid open, allowing debris to burn o. Burner: The burner is made from heavy wall 304 stainless steel, but extreme heat and a corrosive environment can cause surface corrosion to occur. This can be removed with a brass wire brush. CAUTION! Beware of Spiders. Spiders and insects are aracted to the smell of propane and natural gas. The burner is equipped with an insect screen on the air shuer, which reduces the likelihood of insects building nests inside the burner but does not enrely eliminate the problem. A nest or web can cause the burner to burn with a so yellow or orange ame or cause a re (ashback) at the air shuer underneath the control panel. To clean the inside of the burner, it must be removed from the gas grill: Remove the screw (s) that aaches the burner to the back wall. Slide the burner back and up wards to remove. Cleaning: Use a exible venturi tube brush to clean the inside of the burner. Shake any loose debris from the burner through the gas inlet. Check the burner ports and valve orices for blockages. Burner ports can close over me due to cooking debris and corrosion, use an opened paperclip or the supplied port maintenance bit to clean them. Drill out blocked ports using this drill bit in a small cordless drill. The ports are easier to clean if the burner is removed from the grill, but it can also be done with the burner installed. Do not ex the drill bit when drilling the ports, as this will cause the drill bit to break. This drill is for burner ports only, not for the brass orices (jets) which regulate the ow into the burner. Take care not to enlarge the holes. Ensure the insect screen is clean, ght, and free of any lint or other debris. Reinstallaon: Reverse the procedure to reinstall the burner. Check that the valve enters the burner when installing. Replace sear plate mount and / or ghten screws to complete reinstallaon. WARNING! Hose: Check for abrasions, melng, cuts, and cracks in the hose. If any of these condions exist, do not use the gas grill. Have the part replaced by your Napoleon Grill dealer or qualied gas installer. Aluminum Casngs: Clean casngs periodically with warm soapy water. Aluminum will not rust, but high temperatures and weathering can cause oxidaon to occur on aluminum surfaces. This appears as white spots on the casngs. To renish these areas, clean rst and sand lightly with ne sandpaper. Wipe the surface to remove any residue and paint with high temperature barbecue paint. Protect surrounding areas from over-spray. Follow the manufacture’s direcons for curing.www.napoleongrills.com
Troubleshoong Problem Possible Causes Soluon Low heat / Low ame when valve turned to high. For propane - improper lighng procedure. For natural gas - undersized supply line. For both gases - improper preheang. Ensure lighng procedure is followed carefully. All gas grill valves must be in the o posion when the tank valve is turned on. Turn tank on slowly to allow pressure to equalize. See lighng instrucons. Pipe must be sized according to installaon code. Preheat grill with both main burners on high for 10 to 15 minutes.
