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 accidently ignite
with risk of injury.
Burner Flame Check
Light burners, rotate knobs from to low. You
should see a smaller flame in low position than
seen on. 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.
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 between each
collector box or burner and electrode. See
"Troubleshooting" if no click or spark.
Valve Check
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
griddle. Turn knobs to low position then turn back
to OFF position. Valves should turn smoothly.
Hose Check

or worn. Replace damaged hoses before using
griddle. Use only identical replacement part

of this Use and Care Guide.
General Griddle 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
griddle cleaner with scrub brush on insides
of griddle lid and bottom. Rinse and allow
to completely air dry. Do not apply a caustic
griddle/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
griddle cleaner on plastic parts. Damage to
and failure of parts
can result.
•
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
griddle'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.
