SPIDER AND INSECT WARNING

Checking and cleaning burner/venturi tubes
for insects and insect nests. A clogged tube
can lead to a fire beneath the grill.
Spiders and small insects occasionally spin
webs or make nests in the grill burner tubes
during transit and warehousing. These webs
can lead to gas flow obstruction which could
result in a fire in and around burner tubes.
This type of fire is known as "FLASH-BACK"
and can cause serious damage to your grill
and create an unsafe operating condition for
the user.
Although an obstructed burner tube is not
the only cause of "FLASH-BACK", it is the
most common cause.
To reduce the chance of "FLASH-BACK",
you must clean the burner tubes before
assembling your grill, and at least once a
month in late summer or early fall when
spiders are most active. Also perform this
burner tube cleaning procedure if your grill
has not been used for an extended period of
time.
WHEN TO LOOK FOR SPIDERS
You should inspect the burners at least once
a year or immediately after any of the
following conditions occur:
1. The smell of gas in conjunction with the
burner flames appearing yellow.
2. The grill does not reach temperature.
3. The grill heats unevenly.
4. The burners make popping noises.

BEFORE CALLING FOR SERVICE

If the grill does not function properly, use the
following check list before contacting your
dealer for service. You may save the cost of a
service call.
