Cleaning The Burners Follow these instructions to clean and/or replace parts of burner assembly or if you have trouble igniting grill. Clean outside of burner with soap and water. Lay burner upside down on flat surface. Force a stream of water through tubes. Make sure water comes out of all burner holes. Open clogged holes with a thin wire. and examine holes. Due to normal wear and corrosion, some holes may become enlarged. If any large cracks or holes are found replace burner. 1. 2. Remove cooking grate. 3. Remove can from grease clip. 4. Remove screws holding burners to grill bottom. 5. Rotate burners approx. 45 degrees while lifting out of grill bottom to disengage burner tube from valves. 6. 7. To remove air shield for cleaning, disconnect ignitor wire from electrode wire beneath grill bottom. Wash air shield with concentrated grill cleaner or use soap and water solution and dry thoroughly. Return air shield to grill bottom and connect ignitor wire to electrode wire. 8. If grill is to be stored, coat burners lightly with cooking oil. Wrap in protective cover to keep insects out. If not storing grill, tilt burners approx. 45 degrees and insert burner tubes into holes in front of grill bottom to engage valves. Rotate burners to flat position and attach to grill bottom with screws. 9. Before cooking again on grill, follow . Turn gas off at control knobs and LP tank. VERY IMPORTANT: Burner tubes must engage valves. See illustration below for proper burner-to-valve engagement. Shake out excess water "Burner Flame Check" CAUTION FACT: Sometimes spiders and other small insects climb into the burner tubes attached to the burners. The spiders spin webs, build nests and lay eggs. The webs or nests can be very small, but they are very strong and can block the flow of gas. Clean burners prior to use after storing, at the beginning of grilling season or after a period of one month not being used. NATURAL HAZARD • SPIDERS Typical spider webs inside burner. Spider guards are on the air intakes in an effort to reduce this problem, but it will not eliminate it! An obstruction can result in a "flashback" (a fire in the burner tubes). The grill may still light, but the obstruction does not allow full gas flow to the burners. Smell gas. Burner(s) will not light. A small yellow flame from burner (should be blue). Fire coming from around or behind control knob. Follow the “ ” instructions. Clean burners often. Use a 12” pipe cleaner to clean out the burner tubes. You may also force a stream of water from a hose nozzle through burner tubes to clean them. IF YOU EXPERIENCE THE FOLLOWING: 1. 2. 3. 4. STOP! Immediately turn off gas at LP tank! SOLUTION: Wait for grill to cool. Cleaning The Burner Assembly Storing Your Grill • Clean cooking grates. • Store in dry location. • When LP tank is connected to grill, store outdoors in well- ventilated space and out of reach of children. • Cover grill if stored outdoors. • Store grill indoors ONLY if LP tank is turned off and disconnected, removed from grill and stored outdoors. • When removing grill from storage follow instructions before starting grill. "Cleaning Burner Assembly" Repainting Your Grill • After extended use and exposure to weather, paint on grill may deteriorate or become spotted.

Three Cooking Burners Your grill offers maximum cooking flexibility because it has three diamond-shaped burners, each with its own independent control knob. For maximum direct cooking (food placed directly over the burner flame) of large meals, turn on all three burners. For indirect cooking (food offset from burner flame), see instructions below. Your grill offers two indirect cooking methods, one-burner for larger food selections, and two-burner for smaller food amounts. With either method, be sure to observe the following: • Always cook with the lid closed. • Never cook with food placed directly over the flames. • Due to weather conditions, cooking times may vary. During cold and windy conditions the temperature setting may need to be increased to insure sufficient cooking temperatures. • Use this method for larger foods or large amounts of food. • Ignite the burner. For slow cooking, adjust the control knob to the setting. For faster cooking, adjust the control knob to the setting. • Place the food in the center or left side of the cooking grate. • Because the heat source is only on one side, the food should be rotated at least once during cooking to insure even cooking. Use a meat thermometer to determine when the food is done. • Use this method for smaller foods that fit between the left and right burners without being placed directly over the flames. • , ignite the burner. , ignite the and burners and adjust the control knobs to the setting. , turn the burner . • Place the food in the center of the cooking grate. • Because there is a heat source on both sides, there is no need to rotate the food during cooking. Use a meat thermometer to determine when the food is done.

Food Safety Food safety is a very important part of enjoying the outdoor cooking experience. To keep food safe from harmful bacteria, follow these four basic steps: Wash hands, utensils, and surfaces with hot soapy water before and after handling raw meat and poultry. Separate raw meats and poultry from ready-to-eat foods to avoid cross contamination. Use a clean platter and utensils when removing cooked foods. Cook meat and poultry thoroughly to kill bacteria. Use a thermometer to ensure proper internal food temperatures. Refrigerate prepared foods and leftovers promptly. Clean: Separate: Cook: Chill: For more information call: USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline at 1-800-535-4555 In Washington, DC (202) 720-3333, 10:00 am- 4:00 pm EST. How To Tell If Meat Is Grilled Thoroughly • • • • • Meat and poultry cooked on a grill often browns very fast on the outside. Use a meat thermometer to be sure food has reached a safe internal temperature, and cut into food to check for visual signs of doneness. Whole poultry should reach 180° F; breasts, 170° F. Juices should run clear and flesh should not be pink. Hamburgers made of any ground meat or poultry should reach 160° F, and be brown in the middle with no pink juices. Beef, veal and lamb steaks, roasts and chops can be cooked to 145° F. All cuts of pork should reach 160° F. NEVER partially grill meat or poultry and finish cooking later. Cook food completely to destroy harmful bacteria. When reheating takeout foods or fully cooked meats like hot dogs, grill to 165° F, or until steaming hot.
