Check and Adjust the Burners
The burners are tested and factory-set for most efficient
operation. However, variations in gas supply and other conditions
may make minor adjustments to low flame setting necessary.
It is recommended that a qualified person make burner
adjustments.
NOTE: The burner flame of the infrared burner is not visible
because it heats the ceramic burner from the bottom through the
ports in the ceramic. A minimal height of flame may be present
through the ports in the ceramic. The ceramic plate will start to
turn red after 30 seconds to 1 minute.
Low Flame Adjustment
If flame goes out on the “LO” setting, the low flame setting must
be adjusted.
1. Turn off the valve and wait until burner is cool.
2. Remove grate.
3. Light sear burner using information in the “Outdoor Sear
Burner Use” section.
4. Turn burner to its lowest setting and remove knob.
5. Hold valve stem with pliers and insert a small flat-blade
screwdriver into the shaft.
6. Watch the flame and slowly turn the screwdriver
counterclockwise.
7. Adjust flame to minimum stable flame.
8. Replace the control knob and turn off the burner.
9. Replace grate after the burner has cooled.
USING YOUR OUTDOOR SEAR BURNER
Inspect the 20 lb LP Gas Fuel Tank Supply Hose
Inspect the gas pressure regulator/hose assembly before each
use.
1. Open the cabinet door and slide 20 lb LP gas fuel tank out.
2. Inspect the entire gas pressure regulator/hose assembly for
cuts, abrasions, or excessive wear.
3. If necessary, replace the gas pressure regulator/hose
assembly before using the sear burner.
Contact the dealer and use only replacement hoses specified for
use with the sear burner.
Prepare the Gas Supply
1. Remove outdoor sear burner cover.
2. Make sure the control knobs are all turned to the OFF
position.
Turn the Gas Supply On
1. For outdoor sear burners using a 20 lb LP gas fuel tank:
Slowly open the tank valve.
NOTE: If flow limiting device activates, your sear burner may
not light. If your sear burner does light, the flames will be low
and will not heat properly. Turn 20 lb LP gas fuel tank valve
and all control knobs off and wait 30 seconds. After shutting
off the 20 lb LP gas fuel tank, very slowly open tank valve and
wait 5 seconds before lighting.
2. For outdoor sear burners using gas supply source other than
20 lb LP gas fuel tank:
Open the manual shutoff valve in the gas supply line. The
valve is open when the handle is parallel to the gas pipe.
