Air Shutter Adjustment
This appliance is shipped from the factory with air shutters adjusted for use with Natural Gas. If further adjustment is necessary, or to reset for use with LP, adjust air shutters as follows:
Grill Burner and Surface Burner Cartridge Air Shutters
(See Illustrations “A” & “B”)
The left hand air shutter controls the rear half of the burner. The right hand shutter controls the front half. Access to air shutters on the surface burner cartridge may be found through openings on the bottom of the cartridge housing.
Slide air shutters backward or forward to increase or decrease the size of the air opening. Air shutters fit snugly, so a screwdriver blade or needle nose pliers may be required to make this adjustment (see illustration).
Observe change in flame appearance as the air shutter is moved. Adjustment is satisfactory when a clearly defined, even blue flame results at the high flame setting. The snug fit of the air shutter assures it will remain positioned correctly.

On any burner, closing the air shutter too far will cause the flame to become soft and yellow tipped. Opening the air shutter too wide will cause the flame to blow away from the burner ports. Proper adjustment will produce a sharp, clearly defined, even blue flame.
