Conrm that the venturi tubes are not blocked by insects
or other debris. Use a special venturi brush to clean.
(Fig. 15)
Use a wire brush or toothpick to probe the orice in the
gas valve. Never enlarge the orice.
Use a small nail or toothpick to clean the burner
ports.
(Fig. 16)
Corrosion of a gas burner can cause the solid mate-
rial between the gas ports to deteriorate, resulting in
uneven burning. See your retailer for the appropriate
replacement burner.
Your Grill should burn with a predominantly blue ame.
If the ame is mostly yellow, check the venturi tubes for
obstruction and clean as shown on Page 18. If yellow
ames still persist, adjust the opening on the air shutter
of the venturi tube located under the front console of
the Grill. (Fig. 18)
Trim all excess fat from meat before cooking.
Conrm the sear plate and drip tray are clean and
properly installed. Remove excess grease from the burn
chamber. Turn down the heat.
Wipe the electrode with a soft, clean cloth.
The electrode should be located 1/8” to 3/16” from the
burner, and positioned to spark to the edge of a gas port.
If the gap is incorrect, or the unit is not properly sparking,
gently bend the electrode tip into position. Use caution
so the ceramic insulator does not crack.
If the ceramic insulator on the electrode is cracked, it
may short out. Replace the electrode.
Conrm that the lead from the Igniter module to the elec-
trode is well seated on the termination of the module.
A crack in the lead wire may result in shorting. Replace
the wire.
The battery in the Igniter Button may be dead or installed
incorrectly. Correct position is positive end down.
