5.5 Lighting Instructions
1. Read all instructions before lighting.
2. Open lid during lighting.
3. Make sure the gas control knob is in “OFF” position.
4. Unfold side tables into the open position.
5. Push the gas control knob and quickly turn counterclockwise to “HIGH”
position. The igniter will click and light the burner.
6. If ignition does not occur in 5 seconds, turn the gas control knob off, wait
5 minutes, and repeat steps 2 - 5.* Before cooking on this grill for the first
time, operate the grill for about 15 minutes with the lid closed and the gas
turned on “HIGH”. This will “heat clean” the internal parts
and dissipate odor from the painted finish.
*Clean your grill after each use. See Section 6.3 for instructions
*If the burner does not light, turn the gas control knob off and wait 5 minutes
to let the gas clear before you try again.

2. Open lid during lighting.
3. Make sure the gas control knob is in “OFF” position.

through the match lighting hole in the left side of the firebox.
Place the flame near the bottom edge of the burner.
6. Push down and turn the burner control knob counterclockwise
to the high setting.
7. The burner should light. The flame will carry around the burner.
Allow grill to pre-heat with the grill lid closed for 2-3 minutes
before cooking.
mCAUTION:
Do not touch any hot grill parts. The outside of the grill bottom especially becomes very hot during use. Use protective
gloves to handle any parts that might become hot during use.
5.7 Using the Grill
Inspect the burner flame by looking through the match lighting holes.
A good flame should be blue with some yellow
tips coming from the burner holes. Yellow tips
on flames up to 1/4“ in height are acceptable
as long as no carbon or soot deposits appear.
During operation, stand to the side of grill
when opening the grill lid.
Do not expose any part of your body directly
above the cooking area.
The burner opening must be positioned properly over the valve orifices.

6. Care And Maintenance
6.1 Care
Regular care of your grill will help keep it operating properly. All maintenance should be done only when the
grill is cool and with the fuel supply turned off. Occasionally inspect and tighten hardware that may become loose.
6.2 Cleaning The Venturi Tube
A spider’s nest or wasp’s mud inside the Venturi Tube can block gas flow and can even cause a fire at the gas
control valve. Such a fire can cause operator injury and serious damage to your grill.
To prevent insect related problems, inspect the Venturi Tube screen cover regularly and remove any dirt.
WARNING!
Do not disassemble or alter the fuel supply system. Improper assembly can result in a hazardous condition.
Seek qualified professional assistance if repairs are required.
