Owners Manual

SIDE BURNER LIGHTING (MODELS ALX2-56 & 56 SZ):

When lighting, always keep your face and body as far away as possible from the burners.

FRONT BURNER: Push and turn the side burner right hand control knob to the “HI” position and imme-

diately depress the right hand igniter button. You’ll hear a snapping sound from spark that will be pro-

vided to both side burners.

It is necessary to keep the igniter button depressed until the burner is lit.

REAR BURNER: Repeat the same operation as explained on the front burner but using the side burner

left hand control knob this time.

If the burner does not light in 4 seconds, turn knobs to “OFF” and wait 5 minutes to allow any accumu-

lated gas to dissipate before trying again. If the burner will not light after several attempts, then it can be

lit with a match

NOTE:To ensure proper spark ignition, do not change gap between the electrode wires and the burners.

The optimum gap is preset at the factory between 1/8” and 3/16.” Replace 9 VDC igniter batteries at the

first sign of spark weakness. 30” grills require one battery, all others require two. See page 6 for battery

replacement instructions.

ROTISSERIE BURNER LIGHTING:

Open the lid, press the proper igniter button (see chart above) and then turn the control knob to the “HI”

position. If the burner does not light within 4 seconds, turn the control knob to “Off”, wait five minutes and

attempt to relight. If the igniter does not function, you can light the burner by holding a lit match to the

burner (with the control knob at the “HI” position).

After your first use of the rotisserie burner it is likely that the stainless steel adjacent and directly above

the burner will darken to a dark blue color. This is a normal property of the non-rusting, type 304

stainless steel used on the Grill and is not detrimental to its operation.

PREHEATING THE GRILL (U-BURNERS):

Preheating the grill is important for best performance. To preheat the grill when cooking with the U-

burners, close the hood after lighting the burners as described above. Set the grill control knobs on “HI”

for 15 minutes, or allow 20-25 minutes for a very high grill temperature.

PREHEATING THE GRILL (IR-BURNERS):

Preheating the IR burners is important to protect them from food drippings. After lighting the IR burners

as described above, allow to preheat on “HI” for four minutes before beginning to grill.

If your grill is equipped with a SEAR-ZONE™ IR BURNER, light and preheat the U-BURNERS first, then

light and preheat the SEAR-ZONE™ IR BURNER.

PREHEATING THE ROTISSERIE BURNER:

Light the rotisserie burner as described in the lighting instructions. Once lit, the rotisserie burner will

reach cooking temperatures in about 1 minute.
