LP (Liquefied Petroleum Gas)

• LP gas is nontoxic, odorless and colorless when produced. For Your Safety, LP gas has been given an odor (similar to rotten cabbage) so that it can be smelled.
• LP gas is highly flammable and may ignite unexpectedly when mixed with air.

LP Cylinder Filling

• Use only licensed and experienced dealers.
• LP dealer must purge new cylinder before filling.
• Dealer should NEVER fill LP cylinder more than 80% of LP cylinder volume. Volume of propane in cylinder will vary by temperature.
• A frosty regulator indicates gas overfill. Immediately close LP cylinder valve and call local LP gas dealer for assistance.
• Do not release liquid propane (LP) gas into the atmosphere. This is a hazardous practice.
• To remove gas from LP cylinder, contact an LP dealer or call a local fire department for assistance. Check the telephone directory under "Gas Companies" for nearest certified LP dealers.

USE AND CARE

LP Cylinder Exchange

• Many retailers that sell grills offer you the option of replacing your empty LP cylinder through an exchange service. Use only those reputable exchange companies that inspect, precision fill, test and certify their cylinders. Exchange your cylinder only for an OPD safety feature-equipped cylinder as described in the "LP Cylinder" section of this manual.
• Always keep new and exchanged LP cylinders in upright position during use, transit or storage.
• Leak test new and exchanged LP cylinders BEFORE connecting to grill.
• Place safety cap on cylinder valve outlet whenever the cylinder is not in use. Only install the type of safety cap on the cylinder valve outlet that is provided with the cylinder valve. Other types of caps or plugs may result in leakage of propane.

LP Cylinder Leak Test

For your safety

• Leak test must be repeated each time LP cylinder is exchanged or refilled.
• Do not smoke during leak test.
• Do not use an open flame to check for gas leaks.
• Grill must be leak tested outdoors in a well-ventilated area, away from ignition sources such as gas fired or electrical appliances. During leak test, keep grill away from open flames or sparks.
• Use a clean paintbrush and a 50/50 mild soap and water solution. Brush soapy solution onto areas indicated by arrows in figure below.
• Do not use household cleaning agents. Damage to gas train components can result.

WARNING

If "growing" bubbles appear, do not use or move the LP cylinder. Contact an LP gas supplier or your fire department!

DANGER

• Do not insert any tool or foreign object into the valve outlet or safety relief valve. You may damage the valve and cause a leak. Leaking propane may result in explosion, fire, severe personal injury, or death.

Connecting Regulator to the LP Cylinder

1. LP cylinder must be properly secured onto grill. (Refer to assembly section.)
2. Turn all control knobs to the OFF position.
3. Turn LP cylinder OFF by turning hand-wheel clockwise to a full stop.

• Do not lean over grill while lighting.
• Turn gas burner control valves to O (off).
• Open lid during lighting or re-lighting.
• Turn ON gas at LP cylinder.
• To ignite, push and turn burner knob to HIGH. Immediately, push and hold ELECTRONIC IGNITOR button until the burner lights.
• If ignition does NOT occur in 5 seconds, turn the burner controls off O, wait 5 minutes and repeat the lighting procedure.
• Repeat steps 4 and 5 to light other main burners.

CAUTION

• Putting out grease fires by closing the lid is not possible. Grills are well ventilated for safety reasons.
• Do not use water on a grease fire. Personal injury may result. If a grease fire develops, turn knobs and LP cylinder off.
• Do not leave grill unattended while preheating or burning off food residue on HI. If grill has not been regularly cleaned, a grease fire can occur that may damage the product.

WARNING

Turn controls and gas source or tank OFF when not in use.

CAUTION

If ignition does NOT occur in 5 seconds, turn the burner controls off, wait 5 minutes and repeat the lighting procedure. If the burner does not ignite with the valve open, gas will continue to flow out of the burner and could accidentally ignite with risk of injury.

Match-Lighting

• Do not lean over grill while lighting.
• Turn gas burner control valves to O(off).
• Open lid during lighting or re-lighting.
• Turn ON gas at LP cylinder.
• Place match into match holder (hanging from side panel of grill). Light match; then light burner by placing match through the match light hole on side of grill. Immediately push in and turn burner knob to the HIGH position. Be sure burner lights and stays lit.
• Light adjacent burners in sequence by pushing knobs in and turning to the HIGH position.

USE AND CARE

Griddle Installation and Storage

1. With a cold grill, remove cooking grates and emitters.
2. Place griddle in grill.

Remove cooking grates and emitters

Proper griddle placement and storage

Locate griddle on the griddle storage bracket while not in use.

CAUTION

Confirm grease cup has been emptied before each use. Use of the griddle encourages build up of excess grease and food debris in the grease cup. See Safety Tips on page 6 for more details.

Griddle Care

• First Time Use

Before using your griddle, wash it thoroughly with a mild dishwashing liquid to remove the protective coating applied for shipping. Rinse with hot water and dry completely with a soft cloth or paper towel. NEVER ALLOW TO DRAIN DRY. Now season the griddle to prevent rust and sticking.

• Seasoning

• A cooking oil with a high smoke point (such as avocado, olive, or canola oil) is recommended for the initial seasoning. Spread a thin coating of oil over the entire surface, including walls and corners, with a paper towel. Turn on the griddle and allow to heat on high for 20-30 minutes with the lid closed. Turn off the burners and allow the griddle to cool. Your griddle should have a smooth, glossy black surface. Your griddle is now ready to use.

To Prevent Rusting

• Re-season your griddle frequently, particularly when new. If rust occurs, it is an indication that the griddle has not been seasoned enough or the seasoning has been burned off. Scour the rust spot with a heavy brush or steel wool. Reapply a coating of your cooking oil, and season the griddle again.

• Maintenance

• Do not do a burn-off after you grill. For any excess food particles and oil, wipe/brush towards the grease drain. Leaving some oil on the griddle surface is okay, and will help to provide a protective coating on the griddle. The more you use your griddle, the easier maintenance will be. For the least amount of maintenance, store your unit in a dry place. If you store your griddle for an extended period of time, apply a thin coating of cooking oil to your griddle, and wipe dry with a paper towel.

USE AND CARE

Charcoal Lighting Instructions

• Do not lean over grill while lighting.
• With a cold grill, remove cooking grates and emitters.
• Place charcoal trays in grill.
• Place single layer of charcoal in tray, 3 lbs maximum.
• Replace cooking grates.
• With lid open, ignite burners using Gas Lighting Instructions.
• Operate gas burners on HIGH for 15 minutes with lid closed.
• Turn controls knobs to O (OFF).
• Open lid and wait 5 minutes, or until the charcoal turns white, before adding food.

WARNING

• Do not operate gas burners for more than 15 minutes when using charcoal.
• Never use lighter fluid, kerosene, gasoline or alcohol to light charcoal.
• Never use wood chunks, instant light or lump charcoal in your grill.
• Other fuels such as wood, wood pellets, paper or coal must not be used.
• Start charcoal ONLY with charcoal tray properly placed in the firebox. See figure.
• Remove charcoal tray from firebox and store when using as a gas only grill.
• Do not operate gas burner with charcoal tray installed in the firebox without charcoal.

Remove cooking grates and emitters

Proper Charcoal Tray Placement

Replace cooking grates

WARNING

CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD

Burning charcoal inside can kill you. It gives off carbon monoxide, which has no odor. NEVER burn charcoal inside homes, vehicles, or tents.

WARNING

After a charcoal fire appears extinguished, unconsumed embers can retain heat for up to 24 hours, and if exposed to fresh air, can burst into flame unexpectedly. Any such embers outside the firebox of the grill pose a fire hazard and can ignite combustible surfaces such as wooden decks.

Cleaning Recommendations

• Clean up of the grill after each charcoal use is required.
• Make sure coals are completely extinguished and the unit has adequately cooled before cleaning.
• Remove charcoal tray and clean out all ashes.

Note: After use, the charcoal tray may discolor. This is normal during use.

USE AND CARE

Burner Flame Check

• Remove cooking grates and heat tents. Light burners, rotate knobs from HIGH to LOW. You should see a smaller flame in LOW position than seen on HIGH. Perform burner flame check on side burner, also. Always check flame prior to each use. If only low flame is seen refer to "Sudden drop or low flame" in the Troubleshooting Section.

Turning Grill Off

• Turn all knobs to the off position. Turn LP cylinder off by turning hand-wheel clockwise to a full stop.

Ignitor Check

• Turn gas off at LP cylinder. Press and hold electronic ignitor button. "Click" should be heard and spark seen each time in each collector box or between burner and electrode. See "Troubleshooting" if no click or spark.

Valve Check

• Important: Make sure gas is off at LP cylinder before checking valves. Knobs lock in off position. To check valves, first push in knobs and release, knobs should spring back. If knobs do not spring back, replace valve assembly before using grill. Turn knobs to LOW position then turn back to off position. Valves should turn smoothly.

Hose Check

• Before each use, check to see if hoses are cut or worn or kinked. Replace damaged hoses before using grill. Use only valve/hose/regulator specified by manufacturer.

Storing Your Grill

• Clean cooking grates.
• Store in dry location.
• When LP cylinder is connected to grill, store outdoors in a well-ventilated space and out of reach of children.
• Cover grill if stored outdoors. Choose from a variety of grill covers offered by Char-Broil at charbroil.com.
• Store grill indoors ONLY if LP cylinder is turned off and disconnected, removed from grill and stored outdoors.
• When removing grill from storage, follow "Cleaning the Burner Assembly" instructions before starting grill.

CAUTION

SPIDER ALERT!

SPIDER AND WEBS INSIDE BURNER

If your grill is getting hard to light or the flame is weak, check and clean the venturis and burners.

Spiders or small insects are known to create "flashback" problems by building nests and laying eggs in the grill's venturi or burner, obstructing the flow of gas. The back-up gas can ignite behind the control panel. This flashback can damage your grill and cause injury. To prevent flashbacks and ensure good performance the burner and venturi tube assembly should be removed and cleaned when ever the grill has been idle for an extended period of time.

General Grill Cleaning

• Do not mistake brown or black accumulation of grease and smoke for paint. Interiors of gas grills are not painted at the factory (and should never be painted). Apply a strong solution of detergent and water or use a grill cleaner with scrub brush on insides of grill lid and bottom. Rinse and allow to completely air dry. Do not apply a caustic grill/oven cleaner to painted surfaces.

• Plastic parts: Wash with warm soapy water and wipe dry.

• Do not use citrisol, abrasive cleaners, degreasers or a concentrated grill cleaner on plastic parts. Damage to and failure of parts can result.

• Porcelain surfaces: Because of glass-like composition, most residue can be wiped away with baking soda/water solution or specially formulated cleaner. Use nonabrasive scouring powder for stubborn stains.
  Painted surfaces: Wash with mild detergent or nonabrasive cleaner and warm soapy water. Wipe dry with a soft nonabrasive cloth.
• Stainless steel surfaces: To maintain your grill's high quality appearance, wash with mild detergent and warm soapy water and wipe dry with a soft cloth after each use. Baked-on grease deposits may require the use of an abrasive plastic cleaning pad. Use only in direction of brushed finish to avoid damage. Do not use abrasive pad on areas with graphics.
• Cooking surfaces: If a bristle brush is used to clean any of the grill cooking surfaces, ensure no loose bristles remain on cooking surfaces prior to grilling. It is NOT recommended to clean cooking surfaces while grill is hot.

USE AND CARE

Cleaning the Burner Assembly

Follow these instructions to clean and/or replace parts of burner assembly or if you have trouble igniting grill.

1. Turn gas off at control knobs and LP cylinder.
2. Remove cooking grates and heat tents.
3. Remove carryover tubes and hardware securing burners.
4. Detach electrode from burner. NOTE: Removal/Detachment method will depend on the burner configuration. See different configurations in illustrations below.
5. Carefully lift each burner up and away from valve openings. We suggest three ways to clean the burner tubes. Use the one easiest for you. (A) Bend a stiff wire (a light weight coat hanger works well) into a small hook. Run the hook through each burner tube several times.

(B) Use a narrow bottle brush with a flexible handle (do not use a brass wire brush). Run the brush through each burner tube several times.
(C) Wear eye protection: Use an air hose to force air into the burner tube and out the burner ports. Check each port to make sure air comes out each hole.

1. Wire brush entire outer surface of burner to remove food residue and dirt.
2. Clean any blocked ports with a stiff wire such as an open paper clip.
3. Check burner for damage due to normal wear and corrosion, some holes may become enlarged. If any large cracks or holes are found, replace burner.

VERY IMPORTANT: Burner tubes must reengage valve openings. See illustrations at right.

Correct burner-to-valve engagement

1. Attach electrode to burner.
2. Carefully replace burners.
3. Attach burners to brackets on firebox.
4. Reposition carryover tubes and attach to burners. Replace heat tents and cooking grates.
5. Before cooking again on grill, perform a "Leak Test" and "Burner Flame Check".

Inspect your infrared emitter before each use to ensure that the openings are not covered with debris. See the Grilling Guide for detailed cleaning instructions.

OPTION/OPTION/OPCION-2

Failure to install grease tray will cause hot grease to drip from bottom of grill with risk of fire or property damage.

NOTE: Take out the griddle from the cabinet before placing LP Cylinder inside cart. After LP Cylinder is secured in place as shown, store griddle by hanging the griddle on the griddle storage bracket.

NOTE: Charcoal cooking available with purchase of accessory kit 3339889W04.

EMERGENCIES: If a gas leak cannot be stopped, or a fire occurs due to gas leakage, call the fire department.

Emergencies Possible Cause Prevention/Solution
Gas leaking from cracked/cut/ burned hose.	Damaged hose.	Turn off gas at LP cylinder or at source on natural gas systems. Discontinue use of product and replace valve/hose/regulator. Once valve/hose/regulator replaced conduct complete leak check per manual.
Gas leaking from LP cylinder. Gas leaking from LP cylinder valve.	Mechanical failure due to rusting or mishandling.	Replace LP cylinder.
	Failure of cylinder valve from mishandling or mechanical failure.	Turn off LP cylinder valve. Return LP cylinder to gas supplier.
Gas leaking between LP cylinder and regulator connection.	Improper installation, connection not tight, and/or failure of rubber seal in cylinder valve.	Turn off LP cylinder valve. Remove regulator from cylinder and visually inspect rubber seal in cylinder valve for damage. If damage or cannot correct leak replace cylinder. See LP Cylinder Leak Test and Connecting Regulator to the LP Cylinder.
Fire coming through control panel.	Fire in burner tube section of burner due to blockage.	Turn off control knobs and LP cylinder valve. Leave lid open to allow flames to die down. After fire is cut and grill is cold, remove burner and inspect for spider nests or rust. See Natural Hazard and Cleaning the Burner Assembly pages.
Grease fire or continuous excessive flames above cooking surface.	Too much grease buildup in burner area.	Turn off control knobs and LP cylinder valve. Leave lid open to allow flames to die down. After cooling, clean food particles and excess grease from inside firebox area, grease tray, and other surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Problem Possible Cause Prevention/Solution
Burner(s) will not light using ignitor.(See Electronic Ignition Trouble-shooting also)Continued on next page.	GAS ISSUES:· Trying to light wrong burner.· Burner not engaged with control valve.· Obstruction in burner.· No gas flow.· Coupling nut and LP cylinder valve not fully connected.ELECTRICAL ISSUES:· Electrode cracked or broken; "sparks at crack."· Electrode tip not in proper position.(Does not apply to SUREFIRE.)· Wire and/or electrode covered with cooking residue.· Wires are loose or disconnected.· Wires are shorting (sparking) between ignitor and electrode.· Dead battery.ELECTRONIC IGNITION:· No spark, no ignition noise.· No spark, some ignition noise.· Sparks, but not at electrode or at full strength.	· See instructions on control panel and in Use and Care section.· Make sure valves are positioned inside of burner tubes.· Ensure burner tubes are not obstructed with spider webs or other matter. See cleaning section of Use and Care.· Make sure LP cylinder is not empty. If LP cylinder is not empty, refer to "Sudden drop in gas flow."· Turn the coupling nut approximately one-half to three-quarters additional turn until solid stop. Tighten by hand only - do not use tools.Replace electrode(s).Main Burners:· Tip of electrode should be pointing toward gas port opening on burner. The distance should be 1/8" to 1/4". Adjust if necessary.Sideburner:· Tip of electrode should be pointing toward gas port opening on burner. the distance should be 1/8" to 3/16". Adjust if necessary.Clean wire and/or electrode with rubbing alcohol and clean swab.Reconnect wires or replace electrode/wire assembly.Replace ignitor wire/electrode assembly.Replace with a new alkaline battery.See Section I of Electronic Ignition System.See Section II of Electronic Ignition System.See Section III of Electronic Ignition System.
Burner(s) will not match light.· See	GAS ISSUES:· Match will not reach.· Improper method of match-lighting.	· Use long-stem match (fireplace match).· See "Match-Lighting" section of Use and Care.
Sudden drop in gas flow or low flame.	• Out of gas. • Excess flow valve tripped. • Vapor lock at coupling nut/LP cylinder connection.	• Check for gas in LP cylinder. • Turn off knobs, wait 30 seconds and light grill. If flames are still low, turn off knobs and LP cylinder valve. Disconnect regulator. Reconnect regulator and leak test. Turn on LP cylinder valve, wait 30 seconds and then light grill. • Turn off knobs and LP cylinder valve. Disconnect coupling nut from cylinder. Reconnect and retry.
Flames blow out. • High or gusting winds. • Low on LP gas. • Excess flow valve tripped.		• Turn front of grill to face wind or increase flame height by turning gas valve to a higher position. • Refill LP cylinder. • Refer to "Sudden drop in gas flow" above.
Flare-up. • Grease buildup.	• Excessive fat in meat. • Excessive cooking temperature.	• Clean burners and inside of grill/firebox. • Trim fat from meat before grilling. • Adjust (lower) temperature accordingly.
Persistent grease fire.	• Grease trapped by food buildup around burner system.	• Turn knobs to OFF. Turn gas off at LP cylinder. Leave lid in position and let fire burn out. After grill cools, remove and clean all parts.
Flashback (fire in burner tube(s)).	• Burner and/or burner tubes are blocked.	• Turn knobs to OFF. Clean burner and/or burner tubes. See burner cleaning section of Use and Care.
One burner does not light from other burner(s).	• Grease buildup or food particles in end(s) of carryover tube(s).	• Clean carry-over tube(s) with wire brush.

Troubleshooting - Electronic Ignition

Problem (Ignition) Possible Cause Check Procedure		Prevention/Solution
SECTION I No sparks appear at any electrodes when Electronic Ignition Button is pressed; no noise can be heard from spark module.	·Battery not installed properly. ·Dead battery. ·Button assembly not installed properly. ·Faulty spark module.	·Check battery orientation. ·Has battery been used previously? ·Check to insure threads are properly engaged. Button should travel up and down without binding. ·If no sparks are generated with new battery and good wire connections, module is faulty.	·Install battery (make sure that "+" and "-" connectors are oriented correctly, with "+" on cap end.) ·Replace battery with new alkaline battery. ·Unscrew button cap assembly and reinstall, making sure threads are aligned and engaged fully. ·Replace spark module assembly.
SECTION II No sparks appear at any electrodes when Electronic Ignition Button is pressed; noise can be heard from spark module.	·Output lead connections not connected.	·Are output connections on and tight?	·Remove and reconnect all output connections at module and electrodes.
SECTION III Sparks are present but not at all electrodes and/or not at full strength	·Output lead connections not connected. ·Arcing to grill away from burner(s). ·Weak battery. ·Electrodes are wet. ·Electrodes cracked or broken "sparks at crack".	·Are output connections on and tight? ·If possible, observe grill in dark location. Operate ignition system and look for arcing between output wires and grill frame. ·All sparks present but weak or at slow rate. ·Has moisture accumulated on electrode and/or in burner ports? ·Inspect electrodes for cracks.	·Remove and reconnect all output connections at module and electrodes. ·If sparks are observed other than from burner(s), wire insulation may be damaged. Replace wires. ·Replace battery with a new alkaline battery. ·Use paper towel to remove moisture. ·Replace cracked or broken electrodes.
