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 back patio – an ideal spot for hosting an evening of grilling during your vacation!
The grill is a gas-powered line connected to the main source, and the timer dial is on the back right side at ground level. Simply adjust your grilling time to 1-3 hours to get started.
Before you light your grill, open the lid and depress the flame knob to let gas flow through. Hold for 1-2 seconds before turning it a quarter turn. You should hear a click accompanied by an ignition after. Please note that it may take more than one attempt to light the grill successfully.

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 pantry, next to the oven closest to the fridge. It should be on the 2nd shelf from the top.
