FIG. A
Normal: Soft blue flames with yellow
tips between I-2" high.
Flare-ups:
"Flare-ups" sometimes occur when food drippings fall onto the hot heat plate or burner and ignite. Some flaring is normal and
desirable as it helps impart the unique flavours associated with grilled foods. Controlling the intensity of the flare-ups is
necessary, however, in order to avoid burned or unevenly cooked foods and to prevent the possibility of accidental fire.
WARNING: Always monitor the barbecue closely when cooking and turn the flame level down (LOW) or OFF if
flare- ups intensify.
Shutting off the burner:
Always turn the valve knob clockwise all the way to the "LOCK OFF'' position.
Promptly disconnect the propane cylinder.

Excess flow safety valve reset procedure

A sudden shut off of the gas flow typically occurs if you open the LP tank valve rapidly.
This procedure is effective with all LP tank sizes.
To ensure the procedure is performed safely and successfully, please carefully follow the instructions below.
1.
Turn the regulator valve to the "LOCK OFF" position.
2.
Disconnect the LP tank from the regulator valve.
3.
Open the lid of the barbecue.
4.
Turn regulator valve to HIGH.
5.
Wait at least one minute.
6.
Turn the regulator valve to the "LOCK OFF" position.
7.
Wait for at least five minutes.
8.
Re-connect the LP tank to the regulator valve.
9.
With the lid open, turn the regulator valve to the high position and light the barbecue.
10.
Observe stainless steel plate when lit: It should feel warm after five to ten seconds and the colour of the stainless steel
plate should turn red in two to three minutes.
11. If the barbecue does not light, turn the regulator valve to the "LOCK OFF" position and disconnect the LP tank. Then
contact the customer service centre for further assistance.
IMPORTANT
Always allow barbecue to completely cool off before covering to prevent corrosion from condensation.
Caution: All cleaning and maintenance should be done when the barbecue is cool, with the fuel supply turned off at
the control dial and the propane cylinder disconnected. DO NOT clean any barbecue part in a self-cleaning oven. The
extreme heat will damage the finish.
Cleaning the Burner Assembly
Burning off the barbecue after every use (approx. 15 minutes) will keep excessive food residue from building up.
Recommended cleaning materials -
Mild liquid dishwashing detergent
Nylon cleaning pad
Paper clip
Compressed air
DO NOT use cleaners that contain acid, mineral spirits or xylene.

Putting BBQ together and unable to screw the regulator into the burner. There is no threads at the end of the burner tube. The instructions show to screw into the tube.

The regulator does not screw into the end of the burner tube because it is designed to screw into the threaded venturi tube of the burner, not the end. The connection point for the regulator is at the venturi tube, which is part of the burner's assembly.
