Shutting Off the Grill
General Use and Correct Burner Flames
Condition The Grill
• Before using the grill for the first time or after storage,
operate grill 15 minutes on high setting, with lid closed, to burn
away oil.
• Once the oil has burned away, check the burner flame per
next step.
The Burner Flame
• Keep the grill lid closed and the cooking surfaces in place.
• Observe the burner’s flame from below the grill bottom.
• Flames should appear similar to the good flame shown in
Fig. 21 and as follows:
• A good flame should be blue with yellow tip.
• Some yellow tips on flames up to 1" in length are accept-
able as long as no carbon or soot deposits appear.
• If flames are excessively yellow and irregular, the oil
residue may not be completely burned off, or the venturi
may be clogged or may not be properly positioned over the
orifices. Allow grill to cool before repositioning venturi over
valve and orifices.
• Grills that have been in use for a while sometimes begin to
show more yellow flame. A build-up of food deposits, fats
or cooking seasonings can cause yellowing flames.
Clean the burner to remove residue and check for clogged
burner holes or blocked venturi (see “Cleaning the Venturi”
pg. 32).
• Regular use of your grill will actually help keep it operating
more smoothly.
• Each grill may heat differently. Some units will heat some-
what more to the center and back of grill. Flavor of grilled
food will improve the more you use the grill and as you become
familiar with it.
CAUTION
Use a LONG wooden match. Make sure all burner controls
are off except one being lighted. If a long-reach match or
lighter is not accessible, there is a match extension provided,
attached underneath the side burner table. Insert a match in
the holder end of the extension, strike the match, and insert it
through the match-lighting hole.
1. Turn on any or all burner gas control knobs to high. (Fig. 19)
2. Press the igniter switch until the flame ignites.
3. If the flame doesn’t immediately light, turn off control knob and
wait five minutes for gas to clear.
4. Repeat steps 1 through 3.
5. If the burner does not light on second try, turn off knob and
try match-lighting the burner.
Match Lighting - Main Burners
1. Strike and place the burning match near the BURNER being
operated.
2. Turn on BURNER CONTROL KNOB while holding match near
burner.
3. The other burners can be ignited by turning them on one at a
time after first burner is lighted.
