TROUBLE SHOOTING
SPIDER AND INSECT WARNING!!!
Spiders and insects can nest in the burners of the

burner. This is a very dangerous condition, which
can cause a fire to occur, thereby damaging the grill
and making it unsafe to operate.

You should inspect the burners at least once a year
or immediately after any of the following conditions
occur:
1. The smell of gas in conjunction with the burner
flames appearing yellow.
2. The grill does not reach temperature.
3. The grill heats unevenly.
4. The burners make popping noises.
