Open Lid
Check The Flame
The Burners have been preset by the manufacturer f or optimal flame performance. A blue flame, possibly with a small
yellow tip, is the result of the optimal air and gas mixture.
Check the flame before each cooking session and throughout the gr illing season. Check the flame especially after long
periods of storing the grill. If the flame is significantly yellow in color, the appropriate amount of LP gas in the air/LP
gas mixture is not correct. This could be due to a blocked Burner f rom grease drippings or from insects building a nest
inside the Burner or Burner opening. See How to Clea n the Burners.
