H2. Burner Maintenance
Your burner has been preset foroptimalflame
performance. You willnormallysee a blue flame,
possibly with asmallyellow tip when the burner is

could be a problem caused by grease from cooking
blockingthe burner or spiders or other insects in the
burner venturi.This can result in the flow ofthe gas
and air mixture being restricted orblocked which may
result ina fire behind the controlpanel causing
serious damage to your barbecue.If thishappens,
the gasshouldbe immediately turnedoff at the
bottle. Burners should be inspected and cleaned on
a regular basis in addition to the following conditions:

brush. Clean the portholes with a pipe cleaner or
piece of wire. Take care notto enlarge the portholes.
Clean the insect screen on the end ofthe venturi
tube with a bristle brush (i.e. anold toothbrush).
Clean the venturitube with a pipe cleaner or piece of

dislodge any debris from inside.”
