CAUTION: Beware of Flash-Back
CAUTION
: Spiders and small insects occasionally
spin webs or make nests in the grill burner tubes
during transit and warehousing. These webs can lead
to gas flow obstruction which could result in a fire in
and around burner tubes. This type of fire is known as
"FLASH-BACK" and can cause serious damage to
your grill and create an unsafe operating condition for
the user.
Although an obstructed burner tube is not the only
cause of "FLASH-BACK", it is the most common cause.
To reduce the chance of "FLASH-BACK", you must
clean the burner tubes before assembling your grill,
and at least once a month in late summer or early fall
when spiders are most active. Also perform this burner
tube cleaning procedure if your grill has not been used
tube cleaning procedure if your grill has not been used
