GRILLING IN WINDY CONDITIONS DELSOL GAS GRILL
Outdoor grills produce more heat than interior
kitchen ranges. That is how they sear and grill
steaks and other food.
These high performance burners require a
constant steady supply of fresh air to mix with
fuel. The grill is designed to pull air in through
the front and vent hot gases out through the rear.
Using grill in windy conditions may disrupt the
front-to-back air flow. If you notice the
temperature gauge fails to rise while the burner
setting is on high and hood is closed, be
extremely careful.
If wind has kept hot gases from exiting the
rear of the grill, the control panel and knobs
may have become extremely hot!
But there are a few things you can do to further
prevent the possibility of improper heat buildup:
On breezy days, do not leave the front
hood down for more than 15 minutes
when burners are on high. (Never leave
the grill unattended when in
operation.)
If you suspect the grill is overheating, open the front hood using oven mitts. Then adjust the burner
control knob to a lower setting.
Install your grill with a wind break behind it.
Orient the grill so prevailing winds are not blowing into the rear of the grill.
WARNING: ANY DAMAGE CAUSED FROM USE OF GRILL IN WINDY CONDITIONS,
SUCH AS MELTED KNOBS OR MELTED IGNITER WIRES, OR FRONT PANEL
DISCOLORATION FROM HEAT BUILDUP IS EXCLUDED FROM WARRANTY
COVERAGE.
Wind hitting the back of the unit can
disrupt proper air flow.
