Burner Flame Check
Remove cooking grates and emitters. Light burners, rotate
control knobs from HI to LO. You should see a smaller flame in
LO position than seen on HI. Always check flame prior to each
use. If only low flame is seen refer to "Sudden drop or low
flame" in the Troubleshooting Section.

Turn all control knobs to the OFF position. Turn gas source to
the OFF position.
Ignitor Check
Turn gas OFF at gas source. Push in and turn each control
knob to the
position. "Clicking" should be heard and
spark seen between each collector box or burner and
electrode. See "troubleshooting" if no click or spark.
Valve Check
Important: Make sure gas is turned OFF at the gas source
before checking valves. Control knobs lock in the OFF
position. To check valves, first push in control knobs and
release, control knobs should spring back. If control knobs do
not spring back, replace valve assembly before using grill.
Turn control knobs to LO position then turn back to OFF

Quick Start Tips
Preheating for different types of grilling:
Sear - preheat with all burners set to HI for maximum cooking
grate temperatures
Barbecue - preheat with all burners set to LO for a lower starting
grate temperature for grilling foods slower.
Indirect grilling - preheat one burner only on the side opposite
where the food will be placed to allow the slowest and lowest
grilling for larger cuts of meat.
Roasting - place the warming rack on the lower supports and
use burner(s) directly under the food on LO or indirectly for
lower temperature cooking. This will allow more heat to
circulate around the food during grilling.
Lowering the temperature of the cooking grate:
Control knob - turn the control knob to the LO setting for the
lowest temperature setting.
Control knob - for the lowest cooking grate temperatures the
food can be grilled indirectly with the burner under the food in
the OFF position and a single burner away from the food on
LO.
During grilling the grill can be cooled down faster by lifting the
lid while adjusting the control knobs to a lower setting.
Adding a smoked flavor while grilling:
Do not use wood chunks on a Saber grill cooking grate.
Wood chips can be used by placing them between the cooking
grate bars. Soaking the wood chips for a minimum of 15
minutes prior to use will extend the smoking time.
A smoker box (sold separately) can be used by filling it with
wood chips and placing it directly on the cooking grate with the
burner on the HI or LO setting.
General Grill Cleaning
Do not mistake brown or black accumulation of grease and
smoke for paint. Apply a strong solution of detergent and water or
use a grill cleaner with scrub brush on insides of grill lid and
bottom. Rinse and allow to completely air dry.
Do not apply a caustic grill/oven cleaner to painted
surfaces.
Plastic parts: Wash with warm soapy water and wipe dry.
Do not use citrisol, abrasive cleaners, degreasers or a
concentrated grill cleaner on plastic parts. Damage to and
failure of parts can result.
Porcelain surfaces: Because of glass-like composition,
most residue can be wiped away with baking soda/water
solution or specially formulated cleaner. Use non-abrasive
scouring powder on stubborn stains.
Painted surfaces: Wash with mild detergent or non-abrasive
cleaner and warm soapy water. Wipe dry with a soft non-
abrasive cloth.
