Flare-ups
“Flare-ups” sometimes occur when food drippings fall onto the hot heat distribution plate or burners and ignite. Some
flaring is normal and desirable as it helps impart the unique flavors associated with grilled foods. Controlling the intensity of
the flare-ups is necessary, however, in order to avoid burned or unevenly cooked foods and to prevent the possibility of
accidental fire.
WARNING:
Always monitor the grill closely when cooking and turn the flame level down to LOW or OFF if flare-ups intensify.
1. Release the screw on venturi
tube.
2. Adjust the flame by turning the
collar on head of venturi tube from
back side of the grill and do not
take apart the venturi tube.
3. Tighten the screw and make
certain it is secured.
1. Overlap 14 mm between
venturi tube and nozzle
when assembling.
2. Keep the center line of
venturi tube and nozzle
on one line.
