through to the regulator on the valve manifold.

5. Refer to the AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENT
INSTRUCTIONS and LIGHTING
INSTRUCTIONS of this manual before
replacing the barbecue face and knobs.
INSTALL THE FLAVOR GRID
Place the flavor grid directly on the burners.
Center the grid over the burners with the open
side up. This allows heat from burners to be evenly
distributed through cooking area. The fl avor grid
heats and cools quickly, making your Fire Magic
barbecue very responsive to the changes you
specify in grill temperature.
The fl avor grid is made of stainless steel or coated
with high temperature porcelain. Either fi nish is
rust resistant and may be cleaned with standard
oven cleaners.
DRIP COLLECTION SYSTEM
The drip collector in this Fire Magic barbecue
is part of the unit’s main frame, and is located
below the burners. The drip collector has one
hole that allows excess drippings to fall through
during cooking. The drip collector is also useful as
it allows you to brush or scrape off excess dried
residue inside the barbecue directly into the drip
tray.
