To reduce
the chance
of FLASHBACK
FIRE you must
clean the Burner
Tubes
as follows
at least once
a month
in summer
and fall or whenever
spiders
are active
in your
area, and if your grill has not been
used for an extended
period
of time.
1. Turn
all Burner
Valves
to the full OFF position.
2.
Turn the LP Gas tank valve to the full OFF
position.
3.
Detach
the LP Gas regulator
assembly
from
your
gas grill.

Grease Trays from your grill.

from the

beneath
the grill.
8.
Refer to Figure
I and perform
one of these
three
cleaning
methods:
[]
METHOD
1: Bend
a stiff
wire
or wire
coat
hanger
into
a small
hook
as shown
and
run
the hook
through
the
Burner
Tube
and
inside
the
Burner
several
times
to remove
debris.
[]
METHOD
2: Use
a bottle
brush
with
a
flexible
handle
and
run
the brush
through
the
Burner
Tube
and
inside
the
Burner
several
times
to remove
any
debris.
[]
METHOD
3: Use
an air hose
to force
air
through
each
Burner
Tube.
The
forced
air
should
pass
debris
or obstructions
through
the Burner
and out
the Ports.
Regardless
of which
Burner
cleaning
procedure
you
use, we recommend
you also complete
the following
steps to help prolong
Burner
life.
1. Use a fiber
pad or nylon brush
to clean
the entire
outer surface
of each Burner
until free of food
residue
and dirt.
2.
Clean
any clogged
ports with
a stiff wire, such
as
an open
paper
clip.
3.
Inspect
each
Burner
for damage
(cracks
or
holes)
and if such
damage
is found,
order
and
install a new Burner.
After
installation,
check
to ensure
that the Gas Valve
Orifices
are
correctly
placed
inside
the ends
of the Burner
Tubes.
Also check
the position
of your Spark
Electrode.
For
safe
operation
ensure
the
Gas
Valve
Assembly
Orifice
is inside
the
Burner
Tube
before
using
your
grill.
See
figure.
If the Orifice
is not
inside
the
Burner
Tube,
lighting
the
Burner
may
cause
explosion
and/or
fire result-
ing
in serious
bodily
injury
and/or
property
damage.
