Safety precautions
For a memorable grilling experience, safety must come first! Ensure that children and pets are kept far away from the grill, and never leave the grill unattended while cooking.
Also, avoid placing flammable materials on the grill that could potentially catch fire, such as gasoline, debris, wood, etc. Remember these tips to make grilling as safe and enjoyable as possible!
How to turn on/off the grill
You could easily find the grill on the front upper deck – an ideal spot for hosting an evening of grilling during your vacation!
To get started, open the lid before igniting the grill’s burners. Next, you need to turn on the gas timer located on the left side of the grill on the ground. This timer can be set to 1, 2, or 3 hours. Once the timer is set, ensure the red gas valve is turned on, pointing downwards.
Next, depress and turn the grill dial a quarter turn to the flame icon. You should hear the gas turn on at this point. Wait 1-2 seconds for the gas to fill, then turn the grill dial another quarter turn to ignite. You may need to repeat the steps if the ignitor doesn't catch.
Finally, when you're done, simply turn the gas dial to the off position.

Troubleshooting steps
If the ignitor button is not functioning, you can turn the gas dials and manually light them using a grill lighter. You can find the grill lighter and grilling tools in the top drawer by the stove.
