READ THIS CARE AND USE MANUAL CAREFULLY AND COMPLETE

LY BEFORE USING YOUR

GRILL TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, BURN HAZARD OR OTHER INJURY. KEEP THIS

MANUAL FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

When properly cared for, your ARTISAN™ Grill will give safe, reliable service for many years. However, extreme

care must be used since the grill produces intense heat, which can increase accident potential. When using this

appliance, basic safety practices must be followed, including but not limited to the following:

• Begin by ensuring proper assembly. A qualified technician should perform all other service.

• All other service should be referred to and performed by a qualified technician.

• For personal safety, wear proper apparel while barbecuing.

• Loose fitting garments or sleeves should never be worn while using this appliance.

• Some synthetic fabrics are highly flammable and should not be worn while cooking.

• Never let clothing, pot holders or other flammable materials come in contact with or too close to any grate,

burner or hot surface until it has cooled down sufficiently. Fabrics may ignite and result in personal injury.

• Use only dry potholders: moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may cause personal burns from steam. Do

not use a towel or bulky cloth in place of potholders. Do not let potholders touch hot portions of the grill rack.

• Only certain types of glass, heatproof glass ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for grill

use. These types of materials may break with sudden temperature changes. Use only on low or medium heat

settings and according to their manufacturer’s directions.

• Grease is flammable. Let hot grease cool before attempting to handle it.

• Avoid letting grease deposits collect in the bottom of the grill by cleaning the grease tray often. Never while

grill is on or hot from recent use; pan will not come out.

• Do not use aluminum foil to line the grill racks, nor to line the drip tray. This can severely upset combustion

airflow or trap excessive heat in the control area. The result of this can be melted knobs, igniters and

increased chance of personal injury. Never grill without the drip pan in place and pushed all the way to the

back of the grill. Without the drip pan, hot grease can leak downward creating a fire or explosion hazard.

• Children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where the grill is being used. Never allow them to

sit, stand or play on or around the grill. Do not store items of interest to children around or below the grill or in

the cart. Never allow children to crawl inside of the cart.

• Do not heat unopened food containers that may cause the container to build-up pressure and burst.

• Protect your hand when opening a hot grill lid. Never lean over an open hot grill.

• When lighting a burner, always pay close attention to what you are doing. Be certain you are

depressing the correct button, labeled for the igniter.

• When using the grill: do not touch the grill rack, burner grate, hood or immediate surrounding area as

these areas become extremely hot and could cause burns. Use only the handles and knobs provided

for operation of the grill.

• For proper lighting and performance of the burners keep the ports clean. It is necessary to clean

them periodically for optimum performance. The burners will only operate in one position and must

be mounted correctly for safe operation.

•

(Safety, cont.)

•

Clean the grill with caution. Avoid steam burns; do not use a wet sponge or cloth to clean the grill

while it is hot. Some cleaners produce noxious fumes or can ignite when applied to a hot surface.

• INSECT WARNING: Spiders and insects can nest in the burners of this and other grills, and cause

the gas to flow from the front of the burner. This is a very dangerous condition, which can cause a fire

to occur behind the valve panel, thereby damaging the grill and making it unsafe to operate. Inspect

the grill at least twice a year.

• Be sure all grill controls are turned off and the grill is cool before using any type of aerosol cleaner on

or around the grill. The chemical that produces the spraying action could, in the presence of heat,

ignite or cause metal parts to corrode.

• Do not operate the grill under unprotected combustible construction. Use only in well ventilated

areas. Do not use in buildings, garages, sheds, breezeways or any enclosed areas.

• Keep the area surrounding the grill free from combustible materials, trash, or combustible fluids and

vapors such as gasoline or charcoal lighter fluid. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion gases and

ventilation airways.

• Keep the back of the cart free and clear from debris.

• If the unit is stored indoors, ensure that it is cool. If propane is used, the cylinder must be unhooked

and the propane cylinder stored outside in a well-ventilated area, out of reach of children.

• Never use the grill in windy conditions. If located in a consistently windy area, oceanfront,

mountaintop, etc... a windbreak will be required. Always adhere to the specified clearances.

• Keep any electrical supply cord, away from the heated areas of the grill.

• Do not use the grill for cooking excessively fatty meats or products, which promote flare-ups.

GAS CONNECTION - NATURAL GAS (NG):

NEVER CONNECT THE GRILL TO AN UNREGULATED GAS SUPPLY.

Before proceeding, ensure the unit is fitted for natural gas. Connecting to an improper gas type will result

in poor performance and increased risk of damage or injury. The installation of this appliance must con-

form with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, to the national fuel gas code, ANSI Z223.1a-

1988. Installation in Canada must be in accordance with the Standard CAN/ CGA-B149.1 Natural Gas

Installation or CAN/CGA-B149.2, Propane Installation Code.

Manifold pressure with NG: Operating: 5.0” W.C.

Non-operating: 6.0” W.C.

Optimum pressure: 7.0” W.C.

NOTE: To ensure proper heating performance of this appliance, verify that the gas line supply pressure

is adequate (7.0” W.C. supply pressure is preferred) to maintain 5.0” W.C. manifold pressure.

Use a minimum 1/2” ID flex hose to prevent gas starvation.

NATURAL GAS CONNECTION:

Ensure that the service pipe supplying the Grill is fitted with a shut off valve conveniently positioned and

easily accessible as an emergency gas shutoff.

Your ARTISAN™ Grill for use with Natural Gas comes equipped with its own regulator which is shipped

loose but must be installed. (SEE FIGURE 4, ON PAGE 11)

To connect the regulator / hose assembly

follow these steps:

1.Locate the manifold gas connection point

(See figure 3) in the rear right side of your

PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT: (MAXITROL™ UNITS ONLY)

1– To convert the Maxitrol™ pressure regulator from NG to LP (or vice-versa) , remove the brass cap

located on the large round dome of the regulator body. The cap has a sealing washer; do not lose or

damage this sealing washer as it is required for a gas tight seal. (Figure 5, on page 12)

2– Located on the cap is also a black plastic plunger. This plunger provides the correct pressure to a

spring located inside the body of the regulator. It is necessary to reverse the direction of the plunger

so it provides the right amount of pressure to the spring inside the body of the regulator.

To reverse the plunger pull it out of the brass cap by pushing it sideways until it snaps and pops out.

3– The plunger is labeled “NAT” or “LP” for natural gas or liquid propane. (Figure 6, on page 12).

The regulator is set to the correct pressure according to the way the plunger faces the regulator

body. If the plunger label reads ”NAT” towards” the body of the regulator , it will be set for natural

gas. If it reads “LP” it will be set for liquid propane.

12

Pressure Regulators cont.

PLUNGER DETAIL:

The regulator plunger is labeled “NAT” for Natural gas or “LP”

for liquid propane. (The “LP” side has a wide disk on the

end.) The side facing the body of the regulator determines

what use is the regulator set for.

Example: The image above (Figure 5) is showing a regulator

set for natural gas.

4– Once the regulator plunger has been reversed for it’s appropriate use and snapped back into the

brass cap, re-install the cap with the sealing washer back into the body or the regulator.

The regulator pressure conversion is complete.

LEAK TESTING:

GENERAL:

Although all gas connections on your ARTISAN™ Grill are leak tested at the factory prior to shipment, a

complete gas tightness check must be performed at the installation site due to possible mishandling in

shipment, or excessive pressure unknowingly being applied to the unit.

Periodically check the whole system for leaks, or immediately check if the smell of gas is detected.

BEFORE TESTING:

• Make sure that all packing material is removed from the grill.

• Make sure the burner tie-down straps are removed from the unit.

• Do not smoke while leak testing.

• Never leak test with an open flame.

• Make a soap solution of one part liquid detergent and one part water for leak testing purposes.

• Apply the solution to the gas fittings by using a spray bottle, or brush.

• For LP units, always check with a full cylinder.

TO TEST:

• Make sure all control valves are in the “OFF” position.

• Apply the soap solution described above to all fittings.

• Turn the gas supply on.

• Check all connections from the supply line, or LP cylinder up to and including the manifold pipe

assembly.

• Soap bubbles will appear where a leak is present.

• If a leak is present, immediately turn off gas supply, tighten any leaking fittings, turn the gas sup-

ply back on, and recheck.

• If you cannot stop a gas leak turn off the gas supply and call the dealer where you purchased

your grill.

• Do not use the grill until all connections have been checked and do not leak.

• Only those parts recommended by the manufacturer should be used on the Grill.

• Substitution can void the grill’s warranty.

IMPORTANT NOTE: ALWAYS CHECK FOR LEAKS AFTER EVERY LP TANK CHANGE.

If a leak is present, or if the connection hose shows signs of wear, these conditions must be corrected

prior to using your grill.

Check all gas supply fittings for leaks before each use. It is handy to keep a spray bottle of soapy water

near the shut-off valve of the gas supply line. Spray all the fittings. Bubbles indicate leaks.

LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS:

BEFORE LIGHTING…

The pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied with the unit must be used. Never substitute regula-

tors for those supplied with the grill. If a replacement is necessary, contact the factory for proper replace-

ment.

Screw the regulator (Type QCC1) into the LP tank. Leak check the hose and regulator connections with

a soap and water solution before operating as explained on the LEAK TESTING section of this manual.

GRILL BURNERS LIGHTING:

T

urn all knobs to “OFF” then turn on the gas supply.

Always keep your face and body as far away from the grill as possible when lighting !.

Lift the hood, depress the igniter button for the burner you are trying to light, and immediately push and

turn the burner control knob counter-clockwise to the “HI” position and wait for the burner to light. (See

illustration below).

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. If the burner will not light after several attempts, then it

can be lit with a match.

Keep your face away from the grill as far as possible and pass a lit, long stem match through the notch

in the grill rack to the ports of the burner you are trying to light. When attempting to light a burner with a

match, ensure that the correct burner control knob is used.

Position the match near the burner ports. Push and turn the control knob to “HI”. Repeat procedure on

each burner if necessary. If the burner does not light in 4 seconds turn the knob OFF, wait 5 minutes

and try again. If the burner will not light after several attempts see page 24: Troubleshooting.

To assure 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 control knob,

wait five minutes, and attempt to relight.

SIDE BURNER LIGHTING:

Push and turn the side burner right hand control knob to the “HI” position and immediately depress the

igniter button. You’ll hear a snapping sound from the spark which is being generated at the side burners.

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

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

accumulated 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 the gap between the electrode wires and the

burners. The optimum gap is preset at the factory between 1/8” and 3/16”.

ROTISSERIE BURNER LIGHTING:

Open the lid, press the igniter button (see page 15) 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 corrosion resistant, type 304

stainless steel used in the manufacturing of your barbecue, 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.

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.

BURNER ADJUSTMENTS:

NOTE: Artisan™ grills are available with both U-burners and IR burners. The following instructions apply

only to the U-burners. IR burners do not require adjustment and need only be checked visually for proper

performance. On high, an IR burner should glow red evenly over its entire surface.

U-BURNER AIR ADJUSTMENT:

Each grill burner is tested and adjusted at the factory prior to shipment; however, variations in the local

gas supply, elevation and other factors might make it necessary to adjust the burners. The flames of the

burners should be visually checked and compared with Figure 4.

Flames should be blue and stable with no yellow tips, excessive noise or lifting.

If any of these conditions exist, check if dirt, debris, spider webs, etc., are blocking the air shutter or

burner ports. Proceed with air shutter adjustment.

AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENT:

A sheet metal cap at the inlet of the burner called the “AIR SHUTTER” regulates the amount of air that

enters into the burner for combustion. The air shutter is locked in place by a screw, which must be

loosened prior to lighting the burner for adjustment.

17

The air shutter adjustment screws are accessible with a flat

screwdriver by removing the burner. Loosen

the screw of the air shutter. Reinstall the burner. Make certain that the burners are sitting properly on the

orifices taking care not to move or damage the igniter electrode.

Light the burners and adjust according to the following directions:

• Turn the valve on “HI”, light the burner and allow it to “WARM UP” for 10 minutes.

• If the flame is yellow, indicating insufficient air, turn the air shutter counter-clockwise to

allow more air into the burner.

• If the flame is noisy and tends to lift away from the burner, (WITH THE BRIQUETTE

TRAYS IN POSITION) indicating too much air, turn the air shutter clockwise to reduce

the amount of air to the burner.

• Retighten the locking screw of the air shutter cap.

NOTE: Be careful, as the burner could be and / or will become very hot after lighting it.

LOW HEAT SETTING ADJUSTMENT:

NOTE: THE LOW HEAT SETTING ON YOUR GRILL IS PRESET AT THE FACTORY.

ADJUST ONLY IF ALTITUDE OR ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS ARE CAUSING POOR, LOW HEAT,

PERFORMANCE.

ADJUSTMENT STEPS:

1. Follow lighting instructions by setting the control

knob on “HI” and allow the burner to preheat for 10

minutes.

2. Turn the control knob to “LOW” and wait for the

burner temperature to drop and stabilize.

3. Attempting adjustment at any setting other than

LOW can create a dangerous condition.

4. Remove knob by pulling straight away from control

panel.

5. Insert a small blade screwdriver into the valve stem

to begin the adjustment.

6. Turn counter-clockwise to INCREASE the low heat

flame using pliers to hold the stem securely. (see

figure # 10)

7. Adjust the flames so the burner is fully lit around the perimeter when the knob is in the LOW posi-

tion. Once proper adjustment is reached, reattach the knob by pushing onto stem.

OPERATING THE GRILL:

U-BURNERS:

The grill burners encompass the entire cooking area and

are side ported to minimize blockage from falling grease

and debris. Above the burners are stainless steel briquette

trays with ceramic tiles (briquettes). The briquette tray is a

fundamental part for the performance of the grill. Make

sure the briquette tray is installed properly before lighting

the burner. Each grill burner has its own igniter. The igniter

push button is located on the front control panel.

USING THE GRILL:

Grilling requires high heat for searing and proper browning. Most foods are cooked at the “HI” heat set-

ting for the entire cooking time. However, when grilling large pieces of meat or poultry, it may be neces-

sary to turn the heat to a lower setting after the initial browning. This method will cook the food through

without burning the outside. Foods cooked for a long time or basted with a sugary marinade may need a

lower heat setting near the end of the cooking time.

NOTE: The hot grill sears the food, sealing in the juices. The longer the preheat period, the faster the

meat browns and the darker the sear marks. Place the food on the grill and cook to the de-

sired brown level. Adjust heat setting, if necessary. The control knob may be set to any posi-

tion between “HI” and “LOW”.

DO NOT LEAVE THE GRILL UNNATENDED WHILE COOKING.

HARDWARE PROVIDED

SEAR-ZONE™ - IR BURNERS:

An IR grill works by producing intense heat which quickly sears

the meat. Searing locks in flavor and juices while allowing the

outer surface to absorb smoke and food aroma that is produced

as grease and drippings are vaporized by the burner. The result

is a crisp, flavorful outside with a tender, juicy inside. Just the

result you want with most grilled foods.

USING THE GRILL:

Grilling requires high heat for searing and proper browning. The intense infrared heat produced by your

Artisan™ Grill meets these requirements perfectly. Meat is cooked evenly throughout, while juices

grease and food particles are vaporized upon contact with the burner, giving added flavor to your food.

NOTE: The hot grill sears the food, sealing in the juices. Proper preheating browns the meat and

produces darker sear marks. Place the food on the grill and sear both sides as recommended

on the “Infrared Grilling Tips” section on page 20.

DO NOT LEAVE THE GRILL UNNATENDED WHILE COOKING.

ROTISSERIE BURNERS:

Your ARTISAN™ Grill is capable of performing back burner rotisserie cooking. The location of the rear

burner allows the placement of the rotisserie basting pan (not included) beneath the food to collect juices

and drippings for basting and gravy. To flavor the contents of the basting pan, you can add herbs, onion,

garlic, or spices.

To assure 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 control knob, wait five minutes, and attempt to

relight.

ROTISSERIE MOTOR:

The rotisserie motor

is capable of turning

up to a 25 Lb. cut of

meat or poultry, with

a maximum diameter

of 10”.

SKEWER:

The skewer for the rotisserie is assembled into the skewer coupler (located in the motor) by placing the

pointed end into the square opening of the coupler. The other end of the skewer (round shaft end) rests

in the slot in the opposite end of the barbecue.

To load the skewer, slide the meat holders with the prongs facing towards the center the skewer bar.

Push the skewer through the center of the food, and then slide the second meat holder (prongs toward

the food) onto the skewer.

Center the product to be cooked on the skewer then push the meat holders firmly together. Tighten the

thumb nuts of the meat holders with pliers. It may also be necessary to wrap the food with butcher’s

string (never use nylon or plastic string) to secure any loose portions. Once the food is secure, insert the

skewer into the coupler.

Start the motor with the switch located on the end of the motor.

ROTISSERIE BASTING PAN:

Place a pan onto the grill racks (or, if necessary, directly

onto the briquettes if the grill racks are removed to accom-

modate large cuts of meat). This pan is required to catch

drippings from the meat being cooked, preventing grease

build-up on the briquettes or Sear-Zone™ IR Burner.

ROTISSERIE GENERAL COOKING INSTRUCTIONS:

As a general rule, rotisserie cooking will take 15 ~ 20

minutes per pound of meat. Keep the hood closed as

much as possible to improve performance.

INFRARED GRILLING TIPS:

Even for an experienced chef, infrared cooking can, at first, present a bit of a challenge. By following

these simple tips, you will soon be producing juicier, more flavorful foods than you have ever experi-

enced before. As a general rule, foods will cook in less time than they would take on an ordinary grill.

By turning food frequently (approximately every 2 minutes), excessive charring is simply avoided.

ARTISAN™ RECOMMENDS THAT YOU TURN FOOD BEING GRILLED ON A SEAR

ZONE™ IR-BURNER EVERY TWO MINUTES DURING THE COOKING PERIOD.

NEVER ALLOW FOOD TO COOK MORE THAN 2 1/2 MINUTES WITHOUT TURNING.

SEARING IS THE KEY:

An infrared grill works by producing intense heat which quickly sears meats. Searing locks in flavor and

juices while allowing the outer surface to absorb smoke and food aroma that is produced as grease and

drippings are vaporized by the burner. The result is a crisp, flavorful outside with a tender, juicy inside.

Just the result you want with most grilled foods.

HOW TO GRILL WITH IR:

Properly pre-heat the grill by following the lighting instructions on page 15. Place food on grill grids and

turn every 2 to 2 1/2 minutes until food is cooked to desired taste. Do not let food cook more than 2 1/2

minutes without turning. Perfect cross sear marks can be made by rotating food 90° at each turn.
