WEBER® SPIDER /INSECT SCREENS
Your Weber® gas barbecue, as well as any outdoor gas appliance, is a target for spiders and other insects. They can nest in the venturi section (1) of the burner tubes. This blocks the normal gas flow, and can cause the gas to flow back out of the combustion air opening. This could result in a fire in and around the combustion air openings, under the control panel, causing serious damage to your barbecue.
The burner tube combustion air opening is fitted with a stainless steel screen (2) to prevent spiders and other insects from accessing the burner tubes through the combustion air openings.
We recommend that you inspect the Spider/Insect Screens at least once a year. (See Section “Annual Maintenance”.) Also inspect and clean the Spider/Insect Screens if any of the following symptoms should ever occur:
1)The smell of gas in conjunction with the burner flames appearing yellow and lazy.
2)Barbecue does not reach temperature.
3)Barbecue heats unevenly.
4)One or more of the burners do not ignite.
DANGER
Failure to correct the above mentioned symptoms may result in a fire, which can cause serious bodily injury or death, and cause damage to property.
