SPIDER WEBS INSIDE VENTURI

In some areas of the country, spiders or small insects have been known to create “flashback” problems. The spiders spin webs, build nests and lay eggs in the grill’s venturi tube(s) obstructing the flow of gas to the burner. The backed-up gas can ignite in the venturi behind the control panel. This is known as a flashback and it can damage your grill and even cause injury.

To prevent flashbacks and ensure good performance the burner and venturi assembly should be removed from the grill and cleaned before use whenever the grill has been idle for an extended period.

Storing Your Grill · Clean cooking grates. · Store in dry location. · Cover grill if stored outdoors. Choose from a variety of grill
covers offered by manufacturer. · When LP cylinder is connected to grill, store outdoors in a well-
ventilated space and out of reach of children. · If the outdoor cooking gas appliance is not in use, the gas must
be turned off at the supply cylinder. Storage of an outdoor cooking gas appliance indoors is permissible only if the cylinder is disconnected and removed from the appliance. · Store grill indoors ONLY if LP cylinder is turned off and disconnected, removed from grill and stored outdoors. · When removing grill from storage, follow “Cleaning the Burner Assembly” instructions before starting grill.

Cleaning the Burner Assembly Follow these instructions to clean and/or replace parts of burner assembly or if you have trouble igniting grill. 1. Turn gas off at control knobs and LP cylinder. 2. Remove cooking grate and vaporiser bar. 3. Under grill remove grease cup, disconnect ignitor wire from
burner. Remove screws and washers holding burner. 4. Inside grill remove burner assembly (B), clean ceramic
portion of electrode with rubbing alcohol and a swab. 5. Clean outside of burner with soap and water. Lay burner
upside down on flat surface, insert garden hose to force water through tubes. Make sure water comes out of all burner holes. Open clogged holes with a thin wire. Shake out excess water and examine holes. Due to normal wear and corrosion some holes may become enlarged. If any large cracks or holes are found replace burner. 6. If grill is to be stored, coat burner lightly with cooking oil. Wrap in protective cover to keep insects out. 7. If not storing grill after cleaning, replace burner into grill bottom. 8. Reattach burner with washers and screws. VERY IMPORTANT: Burner tubes must re-engage valve openings. See illustration (A). 9. Reattach ignitor wire to electrode. 10. Reposition heat tent and cooking grate. Reattach cleaned grease cup to grease clip. 11. Before cooking again on grill, perform a “Leak Test” and “Burner Flame Check”.

Food Safety
Food safety is a very important part of enjoying the outdoor cooking experience. To keep food safe from harmful bacteria, follow these four basic steps:
Clean: Wash hands, utensils, and surfaces with hot soapy water before and after handling raw meat and poultry.
Separate: Separate raw meats and poultry from ready-to-eat foods to avoid cross contamination. Use a clean platter and utensils when removing cooked foods.
Cook: Cook meat and poultry thoroughly to kill bacteria. Use a thermometer to ensure proper internal food temperatures.
Chill: Refrigerate prepared foods and leftovers promptly.
For more information call: USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline at 1-800-535-4555 In Washington, DC 202-720-3333, 10:00 am4:00 pm EST.

How To Tell If Meat Is Grilled Thoroughly
· Meat and poultry cooked on a grill often browns very fast on the outside. Use a meat thermometer to be sure food has reached a safe internal temperature, and cut into food to check for visual signs of doneness.
· Whole poultry should reach 180° F; breasts, 170° F. Juices should run clear and flesh should not be pink.
· Hamburgers made of any ground meat or poultry should reach 160° F, and be brown in the middle with no pink juices. Beef, veal and lamb steaks, roasts and chops can be cooked to 145° F. All cuts of pork should reach 160° F.
· NEVER partially grill meat or poultry and finish cooking later. Cook food completely to destroy harmful bacteria.
· When reheating takeout foods or fully cooked meats like hot dogs, grill to 165° F, or until steaming hot.

Troubleshooting

Problem
Burner(s) will not light using ignitor. Continued on next page.

Possible Cause GAS ISSUES: · Trying to light wrong burner. · Burner not engaged with control valve. · Obstruction in burner. · No gas flow. · Vapor lock at coupling nut to LP cylinder. · Coupling nut and LP cylinder valve not
fully connected. ELECTRICAL ISSUES: · Electrode cracked or broken; “sparks at
crack.” · Electrode tip not in proper position.
· Wire and/or electrode covered with cooking residue.
· Wires are loose or disconnected. · Wires are shorting (sparking) between
ignitor and electrode.

Prevention/Solution
· See instructions on control panel and in Use and Care section. · Make sure valves are positioned inside of burner tubes. · Ensure burner tubes are not obstructed with spider webs or other
matter. See cleaning section of Use and Care. · Make sure LP cylinder is not empty. If LP cylinder is not empty,
refer to “Sudden drop in gas flow.” · Turn off knobs and disconnect coupling nut from LP cylinder.
Reconnect and retry. · Turn the coupling nut approximately one-half to three- quarters
additional turn until solid stop. Tighten by hand only – do not use tools.
· Replace electrode(s).
Main Burners: · Tip of electrode should be pointing toward gas port opening on
burner. The distance should be 1/8″ to 1/4″. Adjust if necessary. Sideburner (if featured): · Tip of electrode should be pointing toward gas port opening on
burner. the distance should be 1/8″ to 3/16″. Adjust if necessary. · Clean wire and/or electrode with rubbing alcohol and clean swab.
· Reconnect wires or replace electrode/wire assembly. · Replace ignitor wire/electrode assembly.

Troubleshooting (continued)

Problem

Possible Cause

Burner(s) will not light PIEZO PUSH-BUTTON AND ROTARY:

using ignitor.

· Push-button sticks at bottom.

· Rotary knob rotates without clicking.

· Sparking between ignitor and electrode.

Prevention/Solution
· Replace ignitor. · Replace knob. · Inspect wire insulation and proper connection. Replace wires if
insulation is broken.

Burner(s) will not match light.

· See “GAS ISSUES:” on previous page. · Match will not reach. · Improper method of match-lighting.

· Use long-stem match (fireplace match). · See “Match-Lighting” section of Use and Care.

Low flame, drop in gas flow.

· Out of gas. · Excess flow valve tripped.

· Vapor lock at coupling nut/LP cylinder connection.

· Check for gas in LP cylinder. · Turn off control and tank knobs, wait 30 seconds, turn tank knob on
slowly, light grill. If flames are still low, turn off control and tank knobs and disconnect regulator. Reconnect regulator, turn tank knob on slowly, light grill. · Turn off control and tank knobs and disconnect regulator. Reconnect regulator, turn on tank knob slowly, light grill.

Flames blow out.

· High or gusting winds. · Low on LP gas. · Excess flow valve tripped.

· Turn front of grill to face wind or increase flame height. · Refill LP cylinder. · Refer to “Sudden drop in gas flow” above.

Flare-up.

· Grease buildup. · Excessive fat in meat. · Excessive cooking temperature.

· Clean burners and inside of grill/firebox. · Trim fat from meat before grilling. · Adjust (lower) temperature accordingly.

Persistent grease fire.

· Grease trapped by food buildup around burner system.

· Turn knobs to OFF. Turn gas off at LP cylinder. Leave lid in position and let fire burn out. After grill cools, remove and clean all parts.

Flashback…

· Burner and/or burner tubes are blocked.

(fire in burner tube(s)).

· Turn knobs to OFF. Clean burner and/or burner tubes. See burner cleaning section of Use and Care.

Unable to fill LP cylinder.

· Some dealers have older fill nozzles with worn threads.

· The worn nozzles don’t have enough “bite” to engage the valve. Try a second LP dealer.
