CARE & USE/INSTALLATION
Professional restaurant chefs rely on a different type of heat
... infrared heat ... to create a higher searing temperature
than what standard burners can achieve. So Lynx provides
the Trident ™ infrared burner.
Infrared burners work by focusing the gas flame through a
ceramic element filled with tiny holes.
These holes focus the flame on the surface of the element,
creating an intense heat much higher than that of a
standard brass burner. It allows you to sear your food more
quickly while leaving the inside rare, if desired.
The Trident ™ burner, with its advanced components,
requires particular attention to lighting, usage and cleaning
guidelines.
Pre-Heating the Trident ™ Burner
Always preheat the entire grill before cooking to achieve
consistent, successful results. (See INDEX: “Preheating” for
further details.)
If the grill is already hot from cooking you should still
pre-heat the Trident ™ burner for 2-3 minutes, or
until it glows red.
Never place food over a Trident ™ burner before it is fully
pre-heated because food particles and grease dripping
onto a cold Trident ™ burner can clog the tiny ports and
damage the burner.
For the same reason you should minimize water spills on
the Trident ™ burner and should not use water to control
flare-ups. Take special care to minimize dropping any
liquids on the Trident ™ burner while cleaning the cooking
grids.
HOW TO SEAR
Searing locks in flavor and juices while allowing the food’s
outer surface to absorb smoke and food-born aromas
produced when drippings are vaporized by the burner.
The result is a restaurant-style finish … crisp, flavorful
outside with a tender, juicy inside.
The Trident ™ infrared burner is specifically designed for
this purpose.
USING THE TRIDENT ™ BURNER
Lynx grill cooking grids are heavy duty.
Dropping them on the Trident ™ Burner will
damage the burner. Such damage is not cov-
ered by the product warranty and will cause a
fire, burns or other personal injury.
TRIDENT™ BURNER CLEANING
It’s easy to keep your Trident ™ Burner
operating at peak performance. Just run it on
“HI” with the hood open for 5 minutes after
each use to burn away any food particles or
drippings.
Any ash accumulation on the burner screen
can be removed with a light brush (like a paint
brush) or vacuum … BUT WAIT UNTIL THE
BURNER IS COOL! Never use water.
Do not poke anything into the holes.
