TROUBLESHOOTING
Proper Burner Flame Pattern
The burner in your barbecue is factory set for the
correct air and gas mixture. When the burner is
performing correctly, you will see a specific flame
pattern. The tips may occasionally flicker yellow
(A), with a descending light blue (B) to dark blue
flame (C).
WARNING: Blocked and dirty ports can restrict
m
full gas flow, resulting in a fire (D) in and around
the gas valves, causing serious damage to your
barbecue.
D
Spider Screens
The combustion air openings of the burners (E)
are fitted with stainless steel screens to
prevent spiders and other insects from spinning
webs and building nests inside the burners.
Additionally, dust and debris can accumulate
on the outside of the spider/insect screen and
obstruct the oxygen flow to the burners.
