Clean inner burner as recommended below, shown
E
.
We suggest three ways to clean the burner tube.
Use the one easiest for you.
(A)
Bend a stiff wire (a light weight coat hanger
works well) into a small hook. Run hook through
burner tube several times.
(B)
Use a narrow bottle brush with a flexible
handle (do not use a brass wire brush), run the
brush through burner tube several times.
(C) Wear eye protection:
Use an air hose to
force air into the burner tube and out the burner
ports. Check each port to make sure air comes out
each hole.
8.
Check burner for damage, due to normal wear and
corrosion some holes may become enlarged. If any
large cracks or holes are found replace burner.
9.
Attach electrode to burner.
10. Carefully replace control panel assembly .
VERY IMPORTANT: Burner tube must re-engage over
valve opening. See illustration, shown F.
11.
Reposition inner liner, cooking basket and top
cover.

A
Spiders or small insects are know to create
“flashback” problems by building nests and laying
eggs in the appliance venturi or burner obstructing
the flow of gas. The back-up gas can ignite behind
the control panel. This flashback can damage your
appliance and cause injury. To prevent flashbacks
and ensure good performance the burner and venturi
tube assembly should be removed and cleaned when
ever the appliance has been idle for an extended
period of time.
If your appliance is getting hard to light or the flame is
weak, check and clean the venturi’s and burners.
