The control panel MUST remain removable for servicing
(see SERVICING AND CLEANING, Control Panel Removal
section).
ENSURE PROPER COMBUSTION AIR AND COOLING
AIRFLOW
Proper airfl ow (front-to-back, Fig. 12-1) MUST be maintained
for the unit to perform as it was designed. If airfl ow is blocked,
overheating and poor combustion will result. Do not block the
1" front air inlet along the bottom of the control panel.
CAUTION: Wind blowing into or across the rear oven lid
vent (Fig. 12-2) can cause poor performance
and/or dangerous overheating. Install the grill
so that the prevailing wind blows toward the
front of the grill (Fig. 12-3). A wind defl ector is
available for purchase to assist in proper
airfl ow during windy conditions . See Table
1 for model numbers. Follow the instructions
inlcuded with the wind defl ector for installation.
