Before cooking on your gas barbeque for the first time, you should "season it" by operating it for a short period of time without any food.

To "season" your barbeque light the barbeque following the lighting instructions as outlined on the console decal or follow this link. Close the lid and keep the temperature on "HIGH" for 20 minutes. DO NOT OPEN THE LID DURING THIS PROCESS. Then raise the lid and continue to operate your barbeque on "HIGH" for an additional 5 minutes. Your barbeque is now ready for cooking.

NOTE: DO NOT OPERATE YOUR BARBEQUE IF THE LAVA ROCKS ARE WET, THE BUILD-UP OF STEAM MAY CAUSE THEM TO FRAGMENT AND SERIOUS INJURY MAY RESULT.
