It is attached to the back of the bottom casting, above the main grid. You can use the burner as a broiler to cook foods on the cooking grates or bonus-grid. If you do, then you cannot use the bottom burner. Or, you can remove the cooking grates or bonus grid, install a rotisserie and use the burner to perfectly roast foods on the split. This is the most common use for the burner. You cannot use the bottom burner with this process either. By not using the lower burner, the grease and food drippings won’t burn and cause flare-ups. It’s healthier, it’s fuel-efficient, and it creates a delicious slow-cooked roast beef, chicken, or veggie kabob on the rotisserie...or a beautiful broiled salmon, lobster, or vegetable medley on the grid.

You’ll have no grease in the grill to clean. • If you group different vegetables by the length of time it takes to cook, then everything will be done at the same time. Check the enclosed food chart for cooking times. 17 General Grill Cleaning • Keep the outside of your grill looking new by cleaning it once a month with warm soap and water or a non-abrasive cleaner. If you don’t have a grill cover, wipe off dust and grime before starting your grill. Repainting Your Grill • Coating the cooking grids with spray-on cooking oil will keep the food from sticking and make clean up easier. After cooking, scrape the grates with a long handled, brass wire bristle brush. • To refinish your grill brush outside of grill lid and bottom with wire brush and lightly sand with fine grit sandpaper. Sanding allows new paint to adhere more easily. Wash grill lid and bottom with soap and water to remove dust and grease. Do not use a grill cleaner on outside of grill. Wipe with vinegar. Refinish outside with heat-resistant paint. Do not paint inside of grill. • Check inside the grill bottom for grease build-up and clean often, especially after cooking fatty meat. • 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 grill cleaner with scrub brush on insides of grill lid and bottom. Rinse and allow to completely air dry. Do not apply a caustic grill/oven cleaner to painted surfaces. •Vaporizer Tents: Will eventually decompose and weaken with use. Remove from grill and tap to loosen any scaling. Brush vigorously with a wire brush to remove any additional scaling, rust or residue. • Plated wire grate(s): Wash grate(s) and V- bar with concentrated grill cleaner or use soap and water solution. Dry thoroughly and store indoors between cookouts. • Plastic parts: Wash with warm soapy water and wipe dry. s Do not use citrisol, abrasive cleaners, degreasers or a concentrated grill cleaner on plastic parts. Damage to and failure of parts can result. • Porcelain grate(s): Because of glass-like composition, most residue can be wiped away with baking soda/water solution or specially formulated cleaner. Use non-abrasive scouring powder for stubborn stains. 18 • After extended use and exposure to weather, paint on grill may change color slightly or become spotted. Although this detracts from grill’s appearance, it will not impair its performance. Care And Cleaning Of Stainless Steel Routine cleaning is necessary to preserve the appearance and corrosion resistance of Stainless Steel. The methods below are suggestions for cleaning stainless steel surfaces. Choose a cleaning method appropriate to the requirement. If you choose to use scouring powder or solvents, consult with the solvent manufacturer or supplier before use. Before cleaning, first test any cleaning product in an inconspicuous location and consider the possibility of scratching and the potential for corrosion caused by not completely removing cleaners. Never use brushes or steel wool as they will scratch and leave particles embedded on stainless steel surfaces, which can lead to rusting. Always rub or wipe in the direction of the polish lines in the stainless steel surface, not across them. Thorough rinsing with clean water is recommended after all cleaning procedures. Dry all surfaces completely after rinsing. Be careful not to let any stainless steel cleaner come in contact with painted or plastic components as damage may occur. Routine Care The Char-Broil® Stainless Steel Grill Cleaner and the Thermos® Stainless Steel Grill Cleaner are good choices for routine cleaning of stainless steel surfaces. Mild stains and loose dirt and soil can also be removed with a soft cloth and clean warm water. Rinse with clean water and wipe dry. Stubborn Stains Stubborn stains, discoloration and possibly rust and rust pitting can occur from cooking, exposure to harsh outdoor conditions, or extreme cooking temperatures. There are many cleaning agents commercially available formulated to restore the finish of stainless steel. Obtain advice from the solvent manufacturer or supplier when choosing the appropriate cleaner for your requirement. These cleaners can be acidic. Care should be taken to avoid contact with eyes or mouth. Be careful not let any powder or solvent come in contact with painted or plastic components as damage may occur. The chart below has been reproduced with permission from the Specialty Steel Institute of North America.

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 burner(s) prior to use after storing, at the beginning of grilling season or after a period of one month not being used. 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 burner(s). IF YOU EXPERIENCE THE FOLLOWING: 1. Smell gas. 2. Burner(s) will not light. 3. A small yellow flame from burner (should be blue). 4. Fire coming from around or behind a control knob. STOP! Immediately turn off gas at LP tank. s After a venturi fire you must inspect the hose and do a “Leak Test” to assure no damage has occurred to the parts. SOLUTION: Wait for grill to cool. Follow the cleaning instructions for your appropriate grill. Clean burners often. Spiders and insects don’t care if your grill is brand new or you just cleaned it. We have found in trying to remove web’s from the burner tubes a 12” pipe cleaner cleans out the tubes, or water from a hose with a nozzle attached. Forced water is needed to wash out the web. 20 Charcoal/Gas Grills Warming Rack If you haven’t attached the handles to the grate follow step 1. . Handle in correct position Step 1. Left handle is shown in the correct position between second and third wire from end. Hook end of right handle over back Grate support wires and pull to hook over front wire. • • • • • • • • Remove cooking grate(s) and hang on back of grill using the hanger wire. Remove V-bar and place two pan supports into grill bottom. Remove warming rack from leg wire and straight wire. Rotate leg wire toward back of grill bottom. Place charcoal tray on pan supports. Rotate grate support wires in the tray into upright positions. Fill charcoal tray with one layer of charcoal briquettes. Place warming rack in the upper position on the wire grate supports. V-Bar Pan Support s Use oven mitts during cooking. Grill Series: 7000 & 8000 QuickSet Traditional • • • • • • Follow standard lighting instructions to light the grill. Turn both control knobs to “HI” position. Close lid and wait 10 minutes. Open lid and continue to heat for 5 to 10 minutes. Turn control knobs to “OFF” position. Let charcoal briquettes continue to whiten for 10 to 15 minutes. WARNING s Make sure ashes are cool and there are no hot embers prior to storing your grill. Do not store grill until coals are cold. s Use only enough charcoal to cover the bottom of the pan. Grill Series 7000: 4 briquets wide by 10 long Grill Series 8000: 5 briquets wide by 12 long s Always light grill using gas. Never use lighter fluid, kerosene, gasoline or alcohol. s Burning charcoal produces carbon monoxide, a toxic odorless fume. Carbon monoxide accumulation may cause illness and/or death. 21 Cooking Chart Cooking times and temperatures may vary according to specific recipes, cooking conditions or barbecue equipment used. Take these factors into consideration to insure best results. If you use the indirect cooking method (indirect cooking is lighting only one burner and placing food on opposite side of cooking grate), allow more grilling time.

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: Clean: Wash hands, utensils and surfaces with hot soapy water before and after handling raw meat and poultry. Separate: 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: Cook meat and poultry thoroughly to kill bacteria. Use a thermometer to ensure proper internal food temperatures. Chill: Refrigerate prepared foods and leftovers promptly. 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 Throughly • 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. 0 0 • Whole poultry should reach 180 F; breasts 170 F. Juices should run clear and flesh should not be pink. 0 • Hamburgers made of any ground meat or poultry should reach 160 F, and be brown in the middle with no pink 0 0 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. 0 • When reheating takeout foods or fully cooked meats like hot dogs, grill to 165 F, or until steaming hot. Storing Your Grill • Clean cooking grate(s) and discard old briquets. • 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.
