Precautions for Installation and Storage 1) DO NOT store or use gasoline 5) Always adhere to the required 9) Keep any electrical supply or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. 2) Never store additional or empty propane cylinders in the grill cabinet or around the grill. Do not store propane cylinders indoors or on their sides. Never use dented, rusty or damaged propane cylinders.
SPECIAL NOTE FOR LP USE Never connect any unregulated gas supply to the grill. The hose with regulator and Type 1 connection included with your grill has these safety features: • The system will not allow gas to flow until a positive connection has been made. •The system has a thermal element that will shut-off the flow of gas between 115 and 150ºC (240 and 300ºF). • The system has a flow limiting device which, when activated, will restrict the flow of gas to 10 cubic feet per hour.
Locating Your Grill When selecting a suitable location, take into account concerns such as exposure to wind and traffic paths. Try to keep all gas supply lines as short as possible. Never locate the grill under a roof or overhang, in a building, garage, shed or other such enclosed area. A carpenter’s “spirit level” should be used to assure that the unit is level both front-to-back and side-to-side. If it is not level, burner combustion may be erratic or the unit may not function efficiently.

Grill Grill BURNER TYPE IDENTIFICATION Depending on the model, your Lynx grill may be equipped with up to three different burner types.
Using the Grill Grilling requires high heat for searing and proper browning. Most foods are cooked at the “HI” heat setting for the entire cooking time (with the lid open). However, when grilling large pieces of meat or poultry, it may be necessary to turn the heat to a lower setting after the initial browning. This cooks the food through without burning the outside. Foods cooked for a long time or foods basted with a sugary marinade may need a lower heat setting near the end of the cooking time.
Lighting the Brass Burners WA R N I N G Never attempt to light grill if odor of gas is present. Hood must be open when lighting. Keep face and body parts as far from grill as possible when lighting. Always wait at least 5 minutes before attempting to relight a hot burner. Before proceeding, make sure you have completed the checklist on the previous page. These checks should be performed before each use of the grill. Follow these steps to light the main brass grill burners: 1) Open hood .

THE MOTOR The rotisserie motor runs on 12 volt DC power that is supplied by the grill.
allow gas to dissipate, and repeat step 5 above. Figure 1 -1 - Proper rotis thermocouple position. Once lit, the rotis burner should reach cooking temperatures in about 1 minute. The glow will even out in about 5 minutes. If the burner will only stay lit with the control knob depressed, the thermocouple position may need to be adjusted (see figure 17-1) to ensure proper function.
Cleaning the Grill The best way to keep your grill looking great is to use a cover, manufactured by Lynx, when the grill is not in use. While stainless steel is very durable, some care is required to ensure the long life of your grill.
