CONTROLLING FLARE-UPS/GREASE FIRES:
•
Flare-ups are a part of cooking meats on a gas grill. This adds to the unique fl avor of cooking on a
gas grill. Use caution when opening lid as sudden fl are-ups may occur. Excessive fl are-ups can over-
cook your food and cause a dangerous situation for you and your grill. Excessive fl are-ups result from
the build-up of grease in your grill. If this should occur, DO NOT pour water onto the fl ames. This can
cause grease to splatter and could result in serious burns or bodily harm.
•
If grease fi re occurs while lid is open, leave lid open, turn burner knobs to "OFF" , turn off LP cylinder
valve. If possible, relocate food to a different section of cooking grate and allow grease to burn out or
smother fl ames with baking soda.
•
If grease fi re occurs while lid is closed, leave lid closed, as a sudden burst of air may increase fl ames.
Turn burner knobs to "OFF" , turn off LP cylinder valve. Allow grease to burn out.
•
Never pour water on a grease fi re as grease may splatter/spread and could result in bodily injury or
property damage.
•
If grease fi re does not quickly burn out or fi re is growing/spreading, use type BC dry chemical fi re
extinguisher or smother with dirt, sand or baking soda. Closing lid to extinguish a grease fi re is not
possible.
TO MINIMIZE FLARE-UPS:
•
Trim excess fat from meats prior to cooking.
•
Cook meats with high fat contents (chicken or pork) on Low settings or indirectly.
•
Ensure that your grill is on level ground and grease is allowed to evacuate grill
through drain hole in bottom and into grease cup/tray.
•
Clean grill frequently to minimize grease buildup.
INDIRECT COOKING:
•
Indirect cooking is the process of cooking your food without heat source being directly under your
food. You can sear meats over a high fl ame on one side of the grill while slow cooking a roast on the
other (unlit) side of the grill.
ROTISSERIE COOKING:
•
Your grill was pre-drilled from the factory to include mounting holes for a rotisserie. Compatible with the
3 Embers® Stainless Steel Rotisserie Kit - Model ACC7100AS (sold separately).
•
Read and follow all instructions provided with the rotisserie. Save instructions for future reference.
TURNING OFF THE GRILL:
1. Turn off cylinder valve.
2. Turn all burner control knobs to "OFF" position.
Note: Turn off LP cylinder fi rst to prevent gas from being left in the system under
pressure.
CAUTION:
•
The cylinder valve should always be in the off, or closed, position when grill is not in use.
