PROTECT CHILDREN: Keep them away from grill
during use and until grill has cooled after you are
finished. Do not allow children to operate grill.
CHECKING FOR GAS LEAKS
NEVER TEST FOR LEAKS WITH A FLAME
Prior to first use and at the beginning of each new
season (or, if using LP, whenever gas cylinder is
changed), it is a must for you to check for gas leaks.
Follow these steps:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Make soap solution by mixing one part liquid
detergent and one part water.
Turn off heat control valve(s), then turn on gas at
source.
Apply the soap solution to all gas connections.
Bubbles will appear in the soap solution if connec-
tions are not properly sealed. Tighten or repair as
necessary.
If you have a gas leak that you cannot repair, turn
off the gas at the source, disconnect fuel line from
grill and immediately call your gas supplier for
professional assistance.
LP GAS CYLINDER SAFETY
Your gas grill is designed for use with a standard 20
lb. LP gas cylinder. DO NOT CONNECT YOUR GRILL
TO AN LP GAS CYLINDER EXCEEDING THIS
CAPACITY. A tank of approximately 12 inches in
diameter by 18-1/2 inches high should be the Maximum
size tank used.
LP gas cylinder is not provided with this grill. When
you buy LP gas cylinder, be sure that (1) the cylinder
must be provided with a shutoff valve terminating in
an LP gas supply cylinder valve outlet compatible with
a Type I cylinder connection device and a safety relief
device having a direct communication with the vapor
space of the cylinder; (2) the cylinder supply system
must be arranged for vapor withdrawal; and (3) the
cylinder used must include a collar to protect the
cylinder valve.
The LP gas cylinder must be constructed and marked
in accordance with specifications of the U.S. Depart-
ment of Transportation(DOT). In Canada, gas cylinders
must meet Canadian Transportation and Communications
(CTC) specifications.
FOR YOUR SAFETY
If you smell gas:
1. Shut off gas to the appliance.
2. Extinguish any open flame.
3. Open lid.
4. If odor continues, immediately call
your gas supplier or your fire
department.
FOR YOUR SAFETY
1. Do not store or use gasoline or other
flammable vapors and liquids in the
vicinity of this or any other appliance.
2. An LP cylinder not connected for use
shall not be stored in the vicinity of this
or any other appliance.
Do not store empty or full spare gas cylinders
under or near this or any other appliance.
Keep the fuel hose and any electrical cord away
from hot surfaces. Protect fuel hose from dripping
grease. Avoid unnecessary twisting of hose.
Visually Inspect hose prior to each use for cuts,
cracks, excessive wear or other damage. Replace
hose, if necessary.
NEVER test for gas leaks with a lighted match or
open flame.
NEVER light grill with lid closed or before check-
ing to insure burner tubes are fully seated over
gas valve orifices.
NEVER lean over cooking surface while lighting
grill. Use barbecue tools with long handles and
good quality insulated oven mitts when operating
grill.
Safety Instructions

DANGER: If you smell or hear the hiss of
escaping gas from the LP gas cylinder:
Get away from the LP gas cylinder.
Do not attempt to correct the problem
yourself.
Call your fire department (Do not make the
call from near the LP gas cylinder - your
telephone is an electrical device).
>
>
>
Never connect an unregulated LP gas cylinder to
your grill. A gas regulator adjusted to have an outlet
pressure of 11" water column(W.C.) is supplied for
connection to the LP gas cylinder. The pressure
regulator and hose assembly supplied with the appli-
ance must be used. Replacement pressure regulators
and hose assemblies must be those specified by the
appliance manufacturer.
SAFETY !
BEWARE
OF
SPIDERS
CAUTION: BURNER TUBES MUST BE IN-
SPECTED AND CLEANED BEFORE FIRST
USE
Spiders and small insects occasionally spin
webs or make nests in the burner tubes during
warehousing and transit. These webs can lead
to a gas flow obstruction which could result in
a fire in and around the burner tubes. This type
of fire is known as "FLASH-BACK" and can
cause serious damage to your grill and create
an unsafe operating condition for the user.
Although an obstructed burner tube is not the
only cause of "FLASH-BACK" it is the most
common cause and frequent inspection and
cleaning of the burner tubes is necessary.
Have the LP gas cylinder filled by a reputable LP gas
dealer, and visually inspected and re-qualified at each
filling.
Have your LP gas dealer check the release valve after
every filling to assure that it remains free of defects.
Always keep cylinder in an upright position. Always
close the cylinder valve when the grill is not in use.
Do not subject LP gas cylinder to excessive heat.
Never store your LP gas cylinder indoors. If you store
your grill indoors, ALWAYS disconnect LP gas cylinder
FIRST, and store LP gas cylinder safely outside.
When the appliance is not in use, the gas must
be turned off at the supply cylinder.
Storage of an appliance indoors is permissible only
if the cylinder is disconnected and removed from the
appliance.
Cylinders must be stored outdoors in a well-ventilated
area out of the reach of children. Disconnected
cylinders must not be stored in a building, garage or
any other enclosed area.
HOSE ASSEMBLY SAFETY
Check tank valve features to ensure it has proper
external mating threads. (Type 1 connection per ANSI
Z21.58a-1998)
Make sure all burner valves are in their off position.
Inspect valve connections port and regulator assem-
bly. Look for any damage or debris. Remove any
debris. Inspect hose for damage. Never attempt to
use damaged or plugged equipment. See your local
LP gas dealer for repair.
When connecting regulator assembly to the tank
valve, hand tighten nut clockwise to a positive stop. Do
Not use a wrench to tighten. Use of a wrench may
damage quick coupling nut and result in a hazardous
condition.
Open tank valve fully(counter-clockwise). Use a soapy
water solution to check all connections for leaks
before attempting to light grill. If a leak is found, turn
tank valve off and do not use grill untill repairs can be
made by a local LP gas dealer.

1.
2.
Run the brush up through each venturi tube and
into the burner several times.
SAFETY !
Use a bottle brush with a flexible handle.
3.
VERY IMPORTANT:
The location of burner with respect to orifice is vital to safe operation. Check to assure the valve
orifices are inside of the burner tubes before using your gas grill. See drawing below.
If the burner tubes (venturi) do not fit over the valve orifices, lighting the burners may cause an explosion
and or a fire accident might happen.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
As with all appliances, proper care and maintenance
will keep them in top operating condition and prolong
their life. Your new gas grill is no exception. By
following these cleaning procedures on a timely basis,
your grill will be kept clean and working properly with
minimum effort.
FOLLOW THE BURNER AND BURNER TUBE CLEAN-
ING PROCEDURE BEFORE ASSEMBLY OF YOUR
GRILL.
To reduce the chance of "Flash-back", the procedure
below should be followed at least once a month in
late summer or early fall when spiders are most active,
or when your grill has not been used for an extended
period of time.
Wire brush entire outer surface of burner to remove
loose corrosion.
Clean any clogged holes with a stiff wire (for
example: an open paper clip).
Inspect the burner assembly for any opening
caused by corrosion.
If openings due to corrosion are found, order a new
burner.
Replace the burner as described in the assembly
instructions.
Check the burner for proper location after replacing.
Check to assure the valve orifices are inside of
the burner tubes.
Should "Flash-back" occur, immediately turn the con-
trol knobs to "OFF" and carefully turn the gas supply
off at the gas source.

Should a "FLASH-BACK" fire occur in/or
around the burner tubes, follow the
instructions below. Failure to comply
with these instructions could result in a
fire or explosion which could cause
serious bodily injury, death, or property
damage.
Cooking Instructions
Burn-off
Before cooking on your gas grill for the first time, you
will want to "burn off" the grill to eliminate any odor or
foreign matter. Just ignite the burners, close the lid,
and operate grill on the HIGH setting for about five
minutes.
CAUTION:
Operating your grill on the HIGH setting for longer than
five minutes may damage certain parts of your grill. Do
not leave your grill unattended.
Preheating
To preheat, light your grill on HIGH, close the lid and
follow this timetable:
Cooking Temperatures
High setting: Only use this setting for fast warm-up,
searing steaks or chops and for burning food residue
off the grill after cooking is complete. Never use the
HIGH setting for extended cooking.
Medium to Low settings: Most recipes specify
medium to low settings, including all smoking and for
cooking lean cuts such as fish.
NOTE: Temperature settings will vary with the amount
of wind and temperature outside your home.
Direct Cooking
The direct cooking method can be used with the
supplied cooking grids, optional griddle placed directly
over the lit grill burners. Direct cooking requires the
grill lid to be open. This method is ideal for searing
and whenever you want meat, poultry or fish to have an
open-flame barbecued taste. Deep frying and smoking
are also best cooked in this manner because they
require direct heat.
Indirect Cooking
The indirect cooking method can also be used with the
supplied cooking grids, optional griddle. To cook
indirectly, the food should be placed on the outer or
inner side of your grill with the burner lit on the oppo-
site side. Or place your food on the optional warming
rack inside your grill and light the inner grill burner.
Either way, indirect cooking must be done with the
lid down.
Flare-Ups
The fats and juices dripping from grilled food can cause
flare-ups. Since flare-ups impart a favorably distinctive
taste and color to food cooked over an open flame,
they should be accepted up to a point. Nevertheless,
uncontrolled flaring can result in a ruined meal.
For high temperature cooking, preheat grill
5 minutes.
For low temperature cooking, preheat grill
3 minutes.
To slow cook, preheating is not necessary.

CAUTION: If burners go out during operation, close gas
supply at source, and turn all gas valves off. Open lid and
wait five minutes before attempting to re-light (this allows
accumulated gas fumes to clear).
CAUTION: Should a grease fire occur, close gas
supply at source, turn off all burners and leave lid
closed until fire is out.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to disconnect any gas fitting
while your gas grill is in operation. As with all
appliances, proper care and maintenance will keep
them in top operating condition and prolong their life.
Your gas grill is no exception. By following these
cleaning procedures on a timely basis, your grill will be
kept clean and working properly with minimum effort.
KEEP OUTDOOR COOKING AREA AND GAS APPLI-
ANCE CLEAR AND FREE FROM COMBUSTIBLE MA-
TERIAL, GASOLINE AND OTHER FLAMMABLE VA-
PORS AND LIQUID.
Turn the burner valve off.
Turn the tank valve off fully.( Turn clockwise to stop.)
Detach the regulator assembly from tank valve by
turning the quick coupling nut counter-clockwise.
Remove cooking grids and flame tamers from the grill.
Remove the burner by unscrewing the two (2) Phillips
screws that secure the burner to the "n" shaped
bracket. Then disconnect the electrode assembly wire
from the ignitor.
Carefully lift each burner up and away from gas valve
orifice.

CLEANING THE COOKING GRIDS
After cooking, turn control knobs to "OFF" and let grill cool
before attempting to clean your cooking grids.
Periodically it is suggested that you wash the cooking
grids in a mild soap and warm water solution. You can use
a wash cloth, vegetable brush or brass brush to clean your
cooking grids if you desire. NEVER use a steel type wire
brush. Take care not to chip or scratch the porcelain
coating because it will cause the grids to rust - which is not
covered under your warranty.
CLEANING THE BURNER TUBES AND BURNER PORTS
( to prevent FLASH-BACK)
To reduce the chance of FLASH-BACK, this procedure
must be followed at least once a month in late summer or
early fall when spiders are most active, or when your grill
has not been used for an extended period of time.
KEEP THE VENTILATION OPENINGS OF THE CYL-
INDER ENCLOSURE FREE AND CLEAR FROM
DEBRIS.
Cleaning & Maintenance
We offer three (3) ways to clean your burner tubes. Use the
procedure at the top of the next page that is most
convenient for you.
CLEANING THE FLAME TAMER
Periodically use a wire brush to remove stubborn burned
on cooking residue (and any rust that may have developed),
wash in warm soapy water and dry. Coat with cooking oil.
Rusting may appear on the flame tamers. This is a natural
oxidation process and does not affect the performance of
the flame tamer or adversely affect the taste of the food.
Application of cooking oil to the flame tamers between
uses can help prolong the life of the flame tamers. Grand
Hall does not warrant the flame tamers against rust unless
the flame tamer is completely rusted through.

Check spark electrode, adjusting as instructed. Elec-
trode tip must point toward the top of gas collector and
approximately 3/16" from the top of collector box.
Replace burners and adjust spark electrode collector
box. Edge of collector box must overlap burner port.
Replace flame tamers, cooking grids.
Reconnect to gas source and observe burner flame for
correct operation.
Regardless of which burner tube cleaning procedure you
use, we recommend that you also complete the following
steps to help prolong burner life.

Wire brush entire outer burner surface to remove
food residue and dirt.
Clean clogged ports with stiff wire or open paper clip.
Inspect the burner for damage (cracks or holes) or
loose screws. If damaged, order and install a new
burner. After installation, check to insure that gas
valve orifices are correctly placed inside ends of burner
tubes. Also check position of spark electrode.
CLEANING THE GREASE CUP
The grease cup should be emptied, wiped and periodically
washed using a mild detergent and warm water solution.
ANNUAL CLEANING OF GRILL HOUSING
Regular care and maintenance will keep your grill in top
operating condition and prolong it's life. However, once a
year you should give the entire grill a thorough cleaning to
keep it in top operating condition.

IMPORTANT: You should NOT line the bottom of the grill
housing with aluminum foil, sand or any other grease-
absorbent substance. To avoid grease fires, the grease
must be allowed to drain through the grill bowl and down
to the Grease Cup.
CLEANING EXTERIOR SURFACES:
Your gas grill is made of heavy steel, and should provide
you with years of trouble-free service. Should you decide
to touch up any scratches in the paint which may occur
with use, a touch-up paint designed for use with high
temperature. Follow these steps for best results when
applying touch-up paint:

Shut off gas supply at source and disconnect fuel line
from gas valve manifold. Protect fuel line fitting.
Remove loose paint by lightly sanding surface(s) with
a medium grit emery cloth or a fine grit sandpaper.
Remove any dirt or grease by washing the surface(s)
with a mild soap and warm water solution.
Rinse with clean water and allow surface to dry
thoroughly or wipe the area with vinegar.

Daily weathering and the high heat associated with
grill cooking can cause exterior stainless steel sur-
faces to tan. Follow these directions for best results.
Never attempt to clean hot grill surfaces.
Remove dirt or grease using a soft cloth, then polish
Stainless Steel using a Foam Spray cleaner specifi-
cally designed for use on stainless steel. Never use
an abrasive cleaner or scrubber as they may scratch
and damage your stainless surfaces.
Dry with a soft cloth and allow to air dry before starting
your grill.

Bend a stiff wire (a lightweight coat hanger works well)
into a small hook. Run the hook through each burner
tube and into the burner several times.
Using a narrow bottle brush with a flexible handle (do
not use a brass wire brush), run the brush through each
burner tube and into the burner several times.
Use an air hose to force air through the burner tube and
out through the burner ports. Observe each port to
make sure air comes out every hole.

ments please call us Monday through Friday, 8:00 am to 4:30 pm CST, at 1-877-537-6190.
Q. I am not familiar with Grand Hall. How long have you been in the gas grill business?
A. Grand Hall has been in business for 22 years manufacturing gas regulators, valves, burners, grills and
assorted parts and accessories for the grill-related industry. Since 1996 we have been manufacturing
the top-of-the-line Bakers & Chefs - a private label grill line commissioned by Sam's Club.
Q. I want to convert my LPG (liquid propane gas) grill to natural gas. Is this safe?
A. Your gas grill is manufactured to exact specifications and is approved by the American
Gas Association (AGA) for use with an LPG cylinder only. We the manufacturer support the U.S.
Government in it's efforts to prevent after-market conversions of gas appliances. For your own safety,
conversion kits are not available and attempts to convert your grill will void your product warranty.
Q. When I mail my Warranty Registration card to the Service Center, will I start getting a lot of junk mail?
A. Grand Hall does not sell or offer it's customer list to other companies. You'll notice the card is quick and
simple to complete. We only ask for pertinent information that enables us to match your name with the
correct model number, date ofpurchase and serial number - all of which must be on-file if you ever
need replacement parts, accessories or want to place a warranty claim. Your information is held
private, and will be on-file here at the Service Center. You can mail the card, or fax it directly to
(214)553-0090.
Q. My Warranty Registration card asks for the serial number off my grill. Where can I find this information?
A. Each gas grill has an individual serial number which may include five numbers and one
letter. However, your serial number may be different. You will find this serial number (and the model
number) on the silver AGA label, placed on the middle shelf. It is very important to include
your serial number on the warranty registration card exactly as it appears on your grill.
Q. How long are parts available for my current grill model?
A. Grand Hall maintains an ample inventory of parts for current gas grills. In the rare event a grill part has
been discontinued or modified, Grand Hall reserves the right to substitute a similar part at our option.
Q. The regulator and hose that came with my grill does not fit my older LPG tank. Why?
A. The U.S. Government regulates gas appliances and LPG cylinder fittings. Increased regulations have
altered the tank fittings over the last few years and they continue to change as the industry develops
improved technology. We apologize for any inconvenience, but if your tank does not fit the current
regulator it means your tank is outdated and must be replaced.

Q. I want to take good care of my investment, so what is the best way to clean my gas grill?
A. As with all appliances, proper care and maintenance will keep them in top operating condition and help
prolong their life. Your gas grill is no exception. Follow the "Cleaning & Maintenance"
instructions in this instruction manual on a timely basis, and your grill will offer you years of enjoyment.
Q. What can cause grills to rust, and what affect does it have on the materials?
A. Rusting is a natural oxidation process and may appear on steel flame tamers at any time. Because your
grill is manufactured with heavy gauge steel, rust will not affect the performance of your grill or affect the
taste of your foods. Grand Hall can not warrant against rust unless the components are completely
rusted through.
Q. How can I remove rust from my grill? Is there a treatment I can use for rust?
A. Here is a quick and easy way to remove annoying rust: Brush off rusted surfaces and create a mixture
of 1 part vinegar and 1 part water. Spray this solution onto rusted areas to dissolve rust, then scrub with
wire brush if necessary. To treat against rust, keep all cooking surfaces and steel flame tamers
lightly oiled at all times. Vegetable oil works well for this and helps to prolong the life of your
steel cooking surfaces and any cast-iron cooking accessories.
Q. What does treating cast-iron mean, and what is the benefit?
A. Treating cast-iron will make foods stick less (which means cooking and
clean-up are botheasier) and helps prolong the life of cast-iron
accessories. It's easy to do, just wipe the cast-ironwith vegetable oil,
olive oil, canola oil, grease, etc., then heat on high in the grill for a few
minutes. After cooking you can wipe a greased cloth along the
cast-iron and much of theresidue will wipe away so you don't
actually have to soak
”
the accessory. After continued use,
the cast-iron will retain flavor and memory of previous recipes,
which is what they mean by
seasoned pan.
”
For best results, it is best to treat cast-iron
before, and after cooking.
