3ADJUST GRILL BURNER AIR SHUTTER

Insert screwdriver blade in

Air shutter slot and twist with slight pressure to allow air shutter

to slide easily

The air shutters for the grill burner may need to be adjusted to get better flame appearance and ignition. The air shutters for the grill burner are located on the bottom of the grill burner. To access the air shutters, remove the grill grate, and then the grill burner. Slide air shutter backward or forward to increase or decrease the size of the air opening. Air shutters fit snugly on the grill burner, so a screwdriver blade may be required to make this adjustment (see illustration). The snug fit of the air shutter assures it will remain positioned correctly.

4CHECK IGNITION

AConnect electrical supply cord.

BTurn on the gas; check for leaks using a liquid leak detector at all joints in the system.

WARNING: DO NOT USE A FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.

Push in one control knob and turn to the LITE position. The igniter will spark and the burner will light. The first test may require some time while air is flushed out of the gas line. After ignition, turn the control knob

to the HI position and wait until the flame settles.

CCheck to determine if your burner flames are normal. If burner flames look like A, turn off the burner and make sure all parts are assembled correctly. Reassemble and check.

Normal burner flames should look like B or C, depending on the type of gas you use. With LP gas, some yellow tipping on outer cones is normal.

A–Yellow flames

B–Yellow tips

C–Soft blue flames
