GRILLING METHODS
NOTE: If grill looses heat while cooking refer to the troubleshooting section of this manual.
You can adjust the LEFT and RIGHT burners as desired. The control settings High (H), Medium (M), Low (L), or
Off (O) are described in your cookbook. The cookbook uses these notations to describe the settings of the LEFT
and RIGHT burners.
If burners go out during cooking, turn off all burners and wait 5 minutes before relighting.
ƽWARNING: Check the bottom tray and catch pan for grease build-up before each use. Remove excess
grease to avoid a grease fire in the bottom tray.
Preheating the grill before grilling is important. Light your Vieluxe
®
gas grill according to the instructions in this Owner’s Manual
or the Summary lighting instructions located inside of the right hand access door. Turn both burners in each Heat Zone to
High (HH), close the lid, and preheat grill with the lid down until grill thermometer reaches 550ºF. This is the
recommended broiling temperature.
Preheating
Preheating the grill before grilling is very important. Light your Vieluxe
®
gas grill according to the instructions in your
Owner’s Manual. Close the lid and wait until the thermometer in your lid reaches 500˚- 550˚F (260˚- 288˚C). This will
take approximately 10 to 15 minutes, depending on outside temperatures.
Covered cooking
All grilling is done with the lid down to provide uniform, evenly circulated heat. With the lid closed, the Vieluxe
®
gas
grill cooks much like a convection oven. The thermometer in the lid indicates the cooking temperature inside the grill.
All preheating and grilling is done with the lid down. No peeking — heat is lost every time you lift the lid.
Flavorizer
®
system
When meat juices drip from the food onto the specially angled Flavorizer
®
bars, they create smoke that gives foods
an irresistible barbecued flavor. Thanks to the unique design of the burners, Flavorizer
®
bars and the flexible
temperature controls, uncontrolled flare-ups are virtually eliminated, because YOU control the flames. Because of the
special design of the Flavorizer
®
bars and burners, excess fats are directed through the funnel-shaped bottom tray
into the grease catch pan.
