30 Checking for Leaks It is important to regularly check your hoses and connections for leaks. Failure to do so could result in fire or explosion which could cause property damage, personal injury or death. This test should be conducted regularly to ensure that the gas appliance and hose are in good working order and operates safely. DANGER: Do not use an open flame to test for leaks. Do not smoke and be sure there are no sparks or open flames in the area while you perform the leak test. Sparks or open flames could result in fire or explosion which could cause property damage, personal injury or death. The connections should be leak tested every time you disconnect and reconnect a gas fitting. Burner Connections 1. Make sure the hose connections are securely fastened to the burner. If your unit was assembled for you, visually check the connection between the burner venturi pipe and orifice. Make sure the burner venturi pipe fits over the orifice. 2. If the burner pipe does not rest flush to the orifice, please contact Customer Service at for assistance. WARNING: Failure to inspect this connection or follow these instructions could cause fire or explosion which could cause property damage, personal injury or death. LEAK-TESTING THE CONNECTIONS 1. Mix ¼ cup of liquid dishwashing soap with ¾ of a cup of water. 2. Make sure control knobs are OFF/FERMÉ. 3. Open the gas control valve on the Natural Gas fuel line. 4. Spoon the mix over the connections or use a small paintbrush to coat the all the connections, hoses and fittings including the manifold pipe assembly (the steel pipe that connects to all the burners.) 5. If you see growing bubbles after several attempts, close the gas control valve on the Natural Gas fuel line. and disconnect it. Do not try to repair. Call Customer Service at to order replacement parts. 6. If no bubbles appear after one minute, close the gas control valve on the Natural Gas fuel line, wipe away solution with water, then wipe dry. HOSE INSPECTION The hose should be inspected for any signs of cracking or damage. WARNING: Check hose before each use of barbecue for nicks, cracking, abrasions or cuts. If the hose is found to be damaged in any way, do not use the barbecue. Replace using only authorized replacement hose. Contact Customer Service at immediately for replacement parts. Ensure that the barbecue is in a well ventilated area. 30 TG3008 NG U&C-2012 FA.indd 30

CAUTION: If a burner goes out during operation, immediately turn the gas to OFF/FERMÉ and open the lid to let the gas clear for five minutes before relighting. NOTE: The first time you light your barbecue your barbecue may give off an odor. This is normal as the barbecue burns off the manufacturing oils. We recommend a trial run at a high temperature to familiarize yourself with your barbecue and to eliminate any protective substance or oil that may have been used for packing and shipping. A small amount of smoke and odour may be detected. This is normal on first use. MANUAL IGNITION INSTRUCTION FOR MAIN BURNER A) Open the barbecue lid. Attempting to light the burner with the lid closed may cause an explosion. B) Ensure all knobs are in the OFF/FERMÉ position. Open the gas control valve on the Natural Gas fuel line.

Cleaning Your barbecue should be cleaned frequently for long life. Some parts of the barbecue need to be cleaned after each use. All cleaning and maintenance should be done when the grill is cool and the fuel supply is disconnected. Do not clean any parts of the barbecue in a self-cleaning oven. The extreme heat will damage the finish. Do not power wash your grill. The high pressure can damage your barbecue. BURNERS Your barbecue is a target for spiders and other insects. They can nest in the venturi section of the burner tubes. This blocks the normal gas flow, and can cause the gas to flow back out of the combustion air opening. This could result in a fire in and around the combustion air openings or under the control panel, causing serious damage to your barbecue. The burner tube combustion air opening is fitted with a stainless steel screen to prevent spiders and other insects from accessing to the burner tubes through the combustion air openings. We recommend that you inspect the spider/insect screens at least once a year. Also, inspect and clean the spider/insect screens if any of the following symptoms should ever occur: A) Gas is smelled in conjunction with burner flames that appear yellow and lazy. B) Barbecue does not reach temperature. C) Barbecue heats unevenly. D) One or more of the burners do not ignite. DANGER: Failure to correct the above mentioned symptoms may result in fire or explosion which could cause property damage, personal injury or death. 32 TG3008 NG U&C-2012 FA.indd 32

33 INSPECTION AND CLEANING OF THE BURNERS AND SPIDER/INSECT SCREENS 1. Turn off the main burners per instructions on page To inspect the spider/insect screens, remove the burners. If there is dust or dirt on the screens, remove the burners to clean the screens. 3. Brush the spider/insect screens lightly with a soft bristle brush (e.g. an old toothbrush). CAUTION: Do not clean the spider/insect screens with hard or sharp tools. Do not dislodge the spider/insect screens or enlarge the screen openings. 4. Lightly tap the burner to get debris and dirt out of the burner tube. Once the spider/ insect screens and burners are clean, replace the burner. 5. If a spider/insect screen becomes damaged or cannot be cleaned, please contact Customer Service at If holes are clogged, use a thin straightened paper clip to open them. Never use a wire with a larger diameter than the hole. If the hole is enlarged, the burners will not burn properly. CAUTION: Never use a toothpick to clean out the burner holes as it may break off and clog the port. If the burners are damaged, contact Customer Service for replacement parts. CLEANING THE SIDE BURNER 1. Turn off the side burner per instructions on page Clean the exterior of the side burner with a brass brush. 3. Clear a clogged port with a straightened paper clip or steel wire. Never enlarge the burner ports. CAUTION: Never use a toothpick to clean out the burner holes as it may break off and clog the port. CLEANING THE GRILLS It is important to clean your grill after each use because grease, salt and acidic marinades can damage the paint and cause the grills to rust. It is best to clean the grills immediately after cooking, while they are still warm and before the grease and deposits have had time to harden and dry out. 1. Turn off the grill per instructions on page Wearing a barbecue mitt, use a long-handled grill brush to scrub the grills. Be careful not to touch the hot grills. BURNER FLAME PATTERN The barbecue burners have been factory set for the correct air and gas mixture. The correct flame pattern is shown in illustration and described below: A) Burner tube B) Tips occasionally flicker yellow B C) Light blue D) Dark blue A D C If the flames do not appear to be uniform throughout the burner tube, follow the burner cleaning procedures. GREASE TRAPS It is important to clean the grease cup and tray after every use. If oil builds up in the grease cup and grease tray, a dangerous grease fire could occur. Do not line the grease cup or grease tray with aluminum foil because the foil may prevent grease from draining properly. 1. Ensure the barbecue is turned off and allow it to fully cool. Caution: The grease tray, cup and its contents may still be warm. Be sure they have fully cooled before handling. 2. Turn the barbecue around so you are able to access the back of the grill. Remove the grease cup and the grease tray. 3. Scrape grease from inside the tray and cup using a spatula and a moist cloth. Dry fully to prevent rust. 4. Replace grease tray and then grease cup. 33 TG3008 NG U&C-2012 FA.indd 33

34 CLEANING YOUR HEAT TENTS The heat tents are an important part of your barbecue. They ensure drippings do not hit your burners directly, which could cause a dangerous flare-up or grease fire. They also allow for drippings to impart that smoky flavour that is associated with barbecued food. WARNING: Do not use your barbecue without the heat tents. Doing so may result in a dangerous flare-ups or grease fire. It is important to regularly clean your heat tents because the grease, salt and acidic marinades can cause the heat tents to rust. The degree of damage may not be apparent under the grease and dirt. Remove and clean the heat tents after every other use. 1. Allow grill to completely cool before cleaning. 2. Use a grill brush to clean the heat tents. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap with warm water. Be sure to dry thoroughly. Heat tents may need replacing. Please contact Customer Service at to order replacement parts. BARBECUE HOUSING A properly-sized barbecue cover is essential to the long life of your barbecue. Under extreme conditions, stainless steel can rust. Rust will be more likely in coastal regions where the salt spray from the ocean may cause rusting. Wipe the grill down with a soft cloth and soap and water solution. Be careful to scrub in the same direction as the grain of the stainless steel. Do not use abrasive cleaners because you may scratch the surface of the stainless steel. Some of the supports and side panels are painted silver. To protect the painted surface, do not use abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals. Using such cleaners or chemicals may result in rust. The inside of the lid is stainless steel and aluminum, and therefore is not painted. If any material starts to flake off, it is likely burned on grease that has dried out. To remove, wipe with a damp cloth. Seasonal Cleaning CLOSING YOUR BARBECUE FOR THE WINTER It is important that your barbecue is properly closed for the winter. Even if you plan on grilling during the winter, it is important that the grill is prepared for the winter. 1. Clean the grill making sure that the grease tray and cup are cleaned. 2. Wipe down the grills and racks so they are free of oil and grease. The natural salts found in food can cause rusting. 3. Check for any loose parts and tighten all screws. 4. Remove grills, warming rack, heat plates and side burner rack. Clean with a soap and water solution then wipe dry. Store indoors in a cool, dry place. 5. Make sure that the vents on the outside of the grill are clear. Debris or oil and grease may clog the openings. 6. Turn off the gas at the source and turn all the knobs to OFF/FERMÉ. 7. Cover your barbecue with a suitable cover. A proper cover will help to keep the snow, ice and rain away from your barbecue. 8. Ensure that snow, ice and water will not collect or pool at the bottom of your grill or on the bottom shelf as this may cause rusting. 9. Ensure that the grill is not directly under any eaves troughs, edges of the roof, or trees. Falling ice and snow can damage the barbecue. OPENING YOUR BARBECUE FOR THE SPRING 1. Clean out any debris or dirt that may have accumulated in or on the grill. Wipe down the barbecue and the grills. 2. Check for rust on the barbecue. 3. Check to make sure the burners are clear and there are no spider webs or other insects in the burners as described on page Reinstall the grills. 5. Perform the Leak Test. See page 30 and check the hose for any damage. If the hose or any of the fittings are damaged or leaking contact Customer Service at Check for any lose parts and tighten all screws. 7. Check knobs and regulators for damage 8. Check grills for any rust or damage. 9. Check the propane tank for any damage. If the tank is damaged, contact your propane tank supplier. 10. Visually check the burner flames. Use the illustration on page 33 to ensure the burners are running properly. 34 TG3008 NG U&C-2012 FA.indd 34

35 Tips for Cooking DIRECT COOKING Cooking directly over hot burners is ideal for searing in juices and grilling thinner cuts of meat such as steaks, burgers, hot dogs, and portioned chicken, vegetables or fruit. 1. Open the lid and ignite desired burner(s) per lighting instructions on page Close lid and preheat grill on MAX. 3. Wear protective gloves and use long handled tools to place food onto cooking grills above the lit burners. 4. Adjust controls to the desired flame height. 5. With lid open or closed, cook until desired internal food temperatures are achieved. 6. Turn grill off by turning the fuel supply to CLOSED and then turn the knobs to OFF/FERMÉ. INDIRECT COOKING Indirect cooking is ideal for slow-cooked foods and thicker foods such as roasts, loins, whole chickens, turkey, fish and baked goods. 1. Open the lid and ignite desired burner(s) per lighting instructions on page 31. Note that to cook indirectly, you will need to place food over two or more unlit burners, so light the burners accordingly. 2. Close lid and preheat grill to the desired temperature. 3. Wear protective gloves and use long handled tools to place food onto cooking grills above the unlit burners. 4. With lid closed cook until desired internal food temperatures are achieved. 5. Turn grill off by turning the fuel supply to Closed and then turn the knobs to OFF/FERMÉ. TIPS FOR BETTER RESULTS ON YOUR GRILL Use the upper cooking grill (warming rack) for keeping cooked food warm, toasting bread or buns, and cooking delicate foods. Use the side burner of the barbecue like a normal kitchen range for boiling, sautéing or frying. To keep food from sticking to the grill, coat with cooking oil before lighting and ensure the grill is hot before putting food on the grill. To reduce flare-ups, keep the grill and fire box clean and use lean cuts of meat or trim the fat. Place delicate foods such as fish and vegetable in aluminum foil pouches and indirectly cook the food or place on the warming rack. WARNING: Never cover the entire cooking area with aluminum foil. To avoid losing natural juices, use long-handled tongs or spatulas instead of forks. Never pierce the food with a fork. Enhance food flavours by using wood chips in a smoker box or aluminum pouch. Follow the wood supplier s instructions for how to properly use their product. After every use, ensure the grills are cleaned and the grease pan and cups are emptied. CAUTION: When cooking indirectly, meat should be placed in or over a pan so the fat and oils collects in the pan instead of dripping on to the unlit heat tents or burners. Failure to do so may result in a dangerous build-up of grease and oils, which could ignite causing a grease fire. 35 TG3008 NG U&C-2012 FA.indd 35
