BUTTON SYMBOLS AND LOCATIONS: 
To  ensure  that  an  IR  burner  is  lit,  very  carefully  place  your  hand  8-10  inches  away  from  the  burner 
surface.  If you do not feel the heat of the burner, shut off the gas at the control knob, wait five minutes, 
and then try again. 
LIGHTING THE GRILL’S U-BURNER , SMOKER AND SEAR-ZONE™ BURNERS: 
Turn all knobs to “OFF” and then turn on the gas supply. 
Adjustable valves are labeled OFF MAX ► MIN. Non adjustable valves are labeled OFF ON. 
Always keep your face and body as far away from the grill as possible when lighting!. 
Lift the hood, depress the igniter button (see above symbol) and for the burner you are trying to light, 
immediately push and turn the burner control knob 90° counter-clockwise to: 
•   “MAX” position (U-Burners and Smoker ) or 
•   “ON” position (Sear-Zone™). 
Wait  for  the  burner  to  light.  Adjust  the  temperature  by 
turning  the  knob  from  MAX  (high  setting)  to  MIN  (low 
setting) by turning counter clock-wise. 
NOTE:  The first burner may take longer to light while air is 
purged from the gas supply system.  If the burner does not 
light  within  4  seconds,  turn  knobs  to  “OFF”  and  wait  5 
minutes to allow any accumulated gas to dissipate before 
trying again. 
LIGHTING SIDE BURNERS (MODELS ALXE-56 & 56 SZ): 
FRONT BURNER: Push and turn the side burner right hand control knob 90° counter-clockwise to the 
“MAX” position and immediately depress the right hand igniter button. You’ll hear a snapping sound from 
the  spark  which  will  be  provided  to  both  side  burners.    It  is  necessary  to  keep  the  igniter  button 
depressed until the burner is lit.
