Check and Adjust the Burners
The burners are
tested and factory-set for most efficient operation.
However, variations in gas supply and other conditions may make minor
adjustments to air shutter or low flame setting necessary.
It is recommended that a qualified person make burner adjustments.
NOTE: The rotisserie burner cannot be adjusted.
Checking and adjusting the grill burner flames requires removing the
grates and fl
ame tamers.
Burner Flame Characteristics
The flames of the grill burners and side burners (on some models) should
be blue
and stable with no excessive noise or lifting (LP gas flames will
have a slightly yellow tip). A yellow flame indicates not enough air. If
flame is noisy or lifts away from the burner, there is too much air. Some
yellow tips on flames when the burner is set to HI setting are acceptable
as long as no carbon or soot deposits appear. The flames should be
approximately 1" (2.5
cm) high.
1" (2.5 cm)
Check that burners are not blocked by dirt
, debris, insect nests, etc., and
clean as necessary. If they are clean, adjust air shutters as needed.
IMPORTANT: Before adjusting air shutters, let burners cool
completely.
To Adjust:
1. Light
grill using information in the “Outdoor Grill Use” section.
2. Observe flame to determine which burners need adjustment and how
the flame is acting.
3. Turn off the valve and wait until grill and burners cool completely.
4. Remove grill grates and flame tamers.
5. Remove the screw and clip that hold the burner in place. Remove
gas burner from the grill.
6. If flame is yellow (not enough air), turn air shutter adjustment screw
counterclock
wise.
If flame is noisy or lifts away from burner (too much
air), turn air
shutter adjustment screw clockwise.
