DANGER
Make sure the tip of the igniter wire is adjusted to the holes in the
burner tube. If it is not adjusted properly, gas can accumulate in the
barbecue while igniting the barbecue. Delayed ignition of the accu-
mulated gas may occur. This will result in a fire or explosion which
can cause serious bodily injury or death, and damage to property.
The igniter electrode has been pre-bent. It may need to be adjusted so the
tip is approximately 1/8 inch from the holes in the burner tube.
Add washers and wing nuts, making sure that the wing nuts are secured in
a vertical position.

and the holes in the bottom unit on the side opposite the regulator.
