3. Repeat this operation, each time checking for a spark at the burner.

If spark is not evident at the burner, check that the ignition lead is firmly attached to the control and spark electrode. With sparking established turn the Control Knob to the OFF position. Note: If the igniter is faulty the burners can be lit using a lighted match attached to the match holder. Burner Operation Open the lid before attempting to light the burners.

The left hand control knob controls the69 left hand side burner and the right hand side control knob controls the right hand burner Once the burner has lit the temperature of the grill can be reduced by turning the control knob the low position. o To turn the burner off, turn the control knob fully clockwise to the off position “0”. o Turn off the gas cylinder valve when the grill is not in use. Notes: 1.Upon first assembly, the gas line and burners will be full of air. In order for the burners to light properly the lines must fill with gas. It may require several attempts at lighting the burners before you are successful. If a burner fails to light after several attempts turn off gas supply at cylinder and read “If the Barbecue Fails to Operate Properly” section below. 2.Note if an igniter is faulty the burner can be lit using a lighted match attached to the match holder. If the Barbecue Fails to Operate Properly Turn off the gas at the cylinder valve and turn both control Knobs to the OFF position. Wait 5 minutes before trying to light again. Check gas supply connections. Repeat the lighting procedure and if barbecue still fails to operate properly, turn off the gas at the cylinder valve and turn both control Knobs to the OFF position and wait for grill to cool and check the following: d) Misalignment of burner tube over orifice

CORRECTION: Reposition burner tube to properly sit over orifice as shown in Fig. 11. b) Obstruction in gas hose CORRECTION: Remove the hose from grill. DO NOT SMOKE! Open the gas cylinder valve for one second to blow any obstruction from the hose. Turn off the gas cylinder valve before reconnecting the hose to the grill. Operating Procedure Burn-off Before cooking on your grill for the first time, burn-off any residual oils or foreign matter by igniting the burners. Ensure the lid is open and operate both burners at “High” setting for approximately 2-3 minutes. You may then turn the control valves to “OFF” or proceed to cooking at the “LOW” or “High” settings. Preheating It is necessary to preheat the barbecue for a short time before cooking certain foods, depending on the type of food and the cooking temperature. Food that requires a high cooking temperature, needs only a period of 5- 6 minutes preheating.

Care & Maintenance Care & Maintenance As with all appliance, proper care and maintenance will keep them in top operating condition and prolong their life. Your new gas grill is no exception. By following these cleaning procedures on a timely basis, your grill will be kept clean and working properly with minimum effort. Spiders and small insects occasionally spin webs or make nests in the burner tubes during warehousing and transit. These webs can lead to a gas flow obstruction that could result in a fire in and around the burner tubes. This type of fire is known as “FLASH-BACK” and cause serious damage to your barbecue and create an unsafe operating condition for the user. Although an obstructed burner tube is not the only cause of “FLASH-BACK” it is the most common cause and frequent inspection and cleaning of the burner tube is necessary. CAUTION: The lid must be in the open position for lighting. Do not smoke at any time when attempting to ignite the grill burners. Do not move the stand while the grill is in operation. Do not leave the grill unattended when alight. CAUTION: Beware of spiders and wasps. Burner tube should be inspected and cleaned periodically.

Flash-Back If fire occurs in and around the burner, immediately turn off gas at the cylinder valve and turn the control knobs to the OFF position, wait until the grill has cooled, then clean the burner tubes and burner ports as described below. Cleaning the Grill Plates After cooking, turn both burner controls to the OFF position and let the grill cool before attempting to clean the grill plates. Before first use and periodically, it is suggested that the grill plates are washed using warm mild soapy water and a cleaning cloth Care of Cooking Surface Use and care of the cooking surface is important. Do not use metal utensils or cut food on the cooking surface. Use only plastic cooking utensils. Do not use pans on the grill plate cooking surfaces.
