BLOCKED BURNER VENTURI
Blockages in the burner venturi caused by spiders, insects and nests can cause a FLASHBACK FIRE. A
flashback fire occurs when a blockage in the venturi tubes caused by spiders, insects and nests blocks the flow
of gas, forcing it back towards the control panel and control knob. The ignited gas, if not detected, can cause a
fire to burn in this area.
IF YOU EXPERIENCE ANY OF THE CHARACTERISTICS OF A FLASHBACK FIRE.
CLOSE THE GAS SHUT-OFF VALVE IMMEDIATELY. FOLLOW THE BURNER CLEANING
PROCEDURE OUTLINED IN THE MAINTENANCE SECTION OF THIS MANUAL.
CHARACTERISTICS OF A FLASHBACK FIRE
•
A fire burning outside of the firebox, usually visible behind or under the control panel.
• Hot or melting control knobs.
•
Large yellow, unruly flames accompanied by the smell of gas.
• Burners not lighting correctly, or partially lighting.
WARNING: AT FIRST SIGHT OF YELLOW, UNRULY FLAMES, POORLY LIT BURNERS ACCOMPANIED
BY THE SMELL OF GAS, SHUT DOWN YOUR GRILL, AND PERFORM BURNER CLEANING
MAINTENANCE, OUTLINED IN THE MAINTENANCE SECTION OF THIS MANUAL, PG 12.
CLEANING THE COOKBOX
Excessive build-up inside the firebox can lead to grease fires and overheating.
1.
Use a plastic scraper to scrape debris off the interior surfaces of the burner box, and into the grease tray
liner.
IF A MORE THOROUGH CLEANING IS REQUIRED
2. For stubborn build-up use a grill degreaser to loosen up debris and then repeat step 1.
CLEANING THE GREASE COLLECTION SYSTEM
The grease collection system consists of 2 parts: rear pull-out grease drawer and removable grease cup with
liner. These components were designed to be quickly and easily removed, cleaned and replaced, on a regular
basis to ensure safe operation of your barbecue.
CAUTION: Keep your grease collection system free of build-up. Failure to clean these components may result in
elevated cooking temperatures causing uneven heat, flare-ups, as well as dangerous grease fires.
CLEANING PORCELAIN CAST IRON COOKING GRATES
IF A MORE THOROUGH CLEANING IS REQUIRED
The Porcelain cast iron cooking grates supplied with your new grill offer superior heat retention and distribution.
By regularly seasoning your grates you are adding a protective coating, which will aid in resisting corrosion and
increase your grates non-stick capabilities.
