INSTALLATION / USE & CARE
ELECTRIC IGNITION
Before proceeding, make sure you have completed the 
“Before Each Use” checklist. 
Follow these steps to light any of the burners on your grill: 
First, make sure all burner control knobs are set to OFF. 
For the Main Ceramic 
Burner or Trident™ Burner:
Push and hold the control 
knob in for 5-7 seconds, 
allowing the igniter to heat 
up. Then rotate the knob to 
“LITE”. After ignition, set the 
knob to the desired heat 
setting.
For the Rotisserie Burner:
The rotisserie burner features a thermocouple sensor with a 
safety valve that automatically shuts o  the fl ow of gas if the 
burner goes out. (See INDEX: “Windy Conditions” for tips on 
how to prevent burner blow out) 
To light the rotisserie burner, push and hold the control 
knob in for 2 seconds and then turn the knob to the “LITE” 
position. 
After ignition CONTINUE HOLDING THE CONTROL KNOB IN 
for 30 to 60 seconds. During this time the thermocouple will 
heat up and the safety valve will remain open.
If you release the control knob before the thermocouple has 
heated up, the safety valve will shut o the fl ow of gas to the 
rotisserie burner and you will have to re-light the burner.
Extremely cold temperatures may cause your Trident™ burners to light inside the 
burners instead of outside. Once lit, if you hear a ‘whooshing’ sound, immediately 
turn the burner knobs o  to extinguish the fl ame and then immediately re-light 
the burners.
