SHOULD A FLASHBACK FIRE OCCUR
IN OR AROUND THE BURNER TUBES,
FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW.
FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THESE
INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN A
FIRE OR EXPLOSION THAT COULD
CAUSE SERIOUS BODILY INJURY,
DEATH, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE:
• SHUT OFF GAS SUPPLY TO THE GAS
BARBECUE
• TURN THE CONTROL KNOBS TO OFF
POSITION
• OPEN THE BARBECUE LID.
PUT OUT ANY FLAME WITH A FIRE
EXTINGUISHER
• ONCE THE BARBECUE HAS COOLED
DOWN, CLEAN THE BURNER TUBES
AND BURNERS ACCORDING TO THE
CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS IN THIS
OPERATOR’S MANUAL.
1.
Turn gas off at source and turn burner control knobs to
‘OFF’
. Wait at least five (5) minutes for gas to clear, then retry.
2.
If your barbecue still fails to light, check gas supply and
connections.
3.
Repeat lighting procedure. If your barbecue still fails to
operate, turn the gas off at source, turn the control knobs to
‘OFF’
, then check the following:
•
Misalignment of burner tubes over orifices
Correction:
Reposition burner tubes over orifices.
•
Obstruction in gas line
Correction:
Remove fuel line from barbecue. Do not smoke!
Open gas supply for one second to clear any obstruction
from fuel line. Close off gas supply at source and reconnect
fuel line to barbecue.
•
Plugged orifice
Correction:
Remove burners from barbecue by pulling cotter
pin
(beneath burner)
using long nose pliers. Carefully lift
each burner up and away from gas valve orifice. Remove
the orifice from gas valve and gently clear any obstruction
with a fine wire. Then reinstall all orifices, burners, cotter
pins and cooking components.
If an obstruction is suspected in gas valves or manifold,
contact your place of purchase or manufacture.
•
Obstruction in burner tubes
Correction:
Follow the burner tube cleaning procedure on
page 21 of this operator’s manual.
•
Misalignment of igniter on burner
Correction:
Check for proper position of the electrode tip
as shown on pages 12 - 13. The gap between the spark
electrode tip and spark receiver should be approximately
4 - 5 mm. Adjust if necessary. With the gas supply
closed and all control knobs set to
‘OFF’
press the electronic
igniter cap and check for the presence of a spark at the
electrode.
•
Disconnected electronic wires
Correction:
Inspect the igniter junction box found behind the
control panel. Connect loose electronic wires to junction
box and try to light the barbecue.
•
Weak AA battery
Correction:
Unscrew the igniter cap and replace the battery.
IF THE BARBECUE FAILS TO LIGHT
CAUTION: If burners go out during operation, close
gas supply at source, and turn all gas valves off.
Open hood and wait 5 minutes before re-attempting
to light (this allows accumulated gas fumes to
clear).
CAUTION: Should grease fire occur, close gas supply
at source, turn off all burners and remove food until
fire is out.
KEEP THE VENTILATION OPENINGS OF THE
CYLINDER ENCLOSURE FREE AND CLEAR FROM
DEBRIS.
