Regardless

the following
steps to help prolong
Burner

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
