ANNUAL MAINTENANCE

To keep your grill performing as safely and efficiently

as on day one, we strongly recommend that you

inspect and clean the burner tube at least once a

year. Over time, the burner tube (A) may become

dirty and blocked. Spiders and insects can nest in

the venturi (B) section of the burner tube causing gas

to flow back out of the air shutter (C). Blocked and

dirty burner slots (D) can restrict full gas flow. This

obstruction could result in a fire in and around the

burner tube under or near the ignition box, causing

serious damage to your grill.

Common symptoms of blocked or dirty tubes may

include:

• Gas smell in conjunction with the burner flames

appearing very yellow and lazy.

• Burner making popping noises.

m DANGER

Failure to correct any problems described

on this page may result in a ﬁre, which can

cause serious bodily injury or death, and

cause damage to property.

BURNER FLAME PATTERN

The burner tube in your grill was manufactured for

the correct air and gas mixture. When the burner

tube is performing correctly, you will see a specific

flame pattern. The tips should flicker yellow (E),

with dark blue in the middle (F) and light blue at the

burner tube (G). If the flames do not match the above

flame pattern description, or if “popping” noises

occur, it could be an indication that the burner needs

cleaning.

THOROUGH CLEANING OF THE BURNER

TUBE

You will need: A flashlight, chenille pipe cleaner,

and a clean stainless steel bristle grill brush. Donot

use a brush that has already been used to clean the

cooking grates.

2. Remove retaining clip (H) and hose fitting (I) from

the burner tube.

3. Look inside the burner tube with a flashlight and

igniter electrode.

4. Insert the pipe cleaner through the burner

slots(K).

5. Brush the outside of the burner tube with a

stainless steel bristle brush (L).
