Using Your Side Burner 12 Using Your Side Burner Read all instructions before you operate your side burner. We recommend you wash your side burner with soap and water prior to lighting it for the first time. Oils are used during the manufacturing process and some residual oil may still be on the stainless steel parts of your side burner. Washing will reduce the possibility of discoloration. We also recommend you keep your side burner covered when not in use.
13 If connected to a propane cylinder, carefully inspect the rubber hose attached to the regulator before each use. • Ensure the propane cylinder, regulator, and rubber hose are installed in a location not subject to heating above 125º F (51º C). • Ensure burner burner insects the burner flames burn evenly along both sides of each with a steady flame (mostly blue with yellow tipping). If flames are not normal, check the orifice and burner for or insect nests.
Using Your Side Burner 14 Manually Lighting the Side Burners WARNING: Do not use standard matches or cigarette lighters to perform match lighting procedures. Serious burns can occur and lighters can explode. 1. Open the hood. 2. If you have just attempted to light the burner, allow five minutes for any accumulated gas to dissipate. 3. Keep your face as far away from the burners as possible. 4. Light and insert a long stem match, holding it near the burner ports. 5.
Cleaning and Maintenance 15 Clean the side burner regularly as determined by the amount of use and foods cooked. In addition, keep the area around your side burner clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors and liquids. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air. These instructions describe the best way to care for your stainless steel.
Cleaning and Maintenance 16 Cleaning Products and Materials Avoid using these common cleaning products and materials – they will damage the surface of your stainless steel.
17 Thoroughly clean stains, food, and grime using a sponge or damp cloth with warm water and a mild dish soap. Use Fantastik or Formula 409 to remove heavier soil. 2. Rinse Thoroughly rinse all surfaces and dry them completely with a clean towel. Do not allow stainless steel to air dry. 3. Polish We strongly recommend that you apply a surface protectant to all exposed stainless steel surfaces.
Cleaning and Maintenance 18 Rust Removal It is a common misconception that stainless steel does not rust. It does not stain, corrode, or rust as easily as ordinary steel (it stains less), but it is not stain-proof. If not properly protected and maintained, it can corrode, pit, and discolor. Because salt will accelerate rust and corrosion, side burner owners who live near the beach need to be diligent in maintaining their stainless steel hardware.
19 Troubleshooting Problem: Smell of gas is present Solution: Check for loose connections in the gas line. Perform a leak test following the procedure described in this manual. Problem: Burner does not ignite Solution: Check the position of the sparker tip. It should be pointing forward towards the front of the burner. • • • • Make sure there is a blue spark at the electrode tip to the burner. Make sure the igniter wire is connected firmly to the valve ignition device and the electrode.
Appendix 20 Problem: Plugged orifice Solution: Unplug the orifice as follows: • Remove burner rack and brass burner. • Using a 7mm socket or socket wrench, remove the brass orifice. • Gently clear any obstruction with a fine wire. • Reinstall the orifice and replace the burner racks. If an obstruction is suspected in the control valve, contact your local Cal Flame dealer for assistance.
21 When converting an LP side burner that is connected to an LP grill, you MUST convert both appliances. It is dangerous to have an LP appliance and an NG appliance supplied by the same fuel. WARNING! You must have an authorized service technician perform this procedure. If these instructions are not followed exactly, a fire or explosion may result causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life.
