CHECKING VENTURI FOR INSECTS
See Figures 24 - 27.
DANGER:
Failure to clean the burner assembly and checking the
venturi as described can result in a fire or explosion
resulting in serious injury or death.
Burners should be cleaned when the grill has been idle
for some time. In some parts of the country, spiders and
other insects can spin webs, build nests, and lay eggs in
the venturi blocking gas flow and causing fire in the tubes
known as "flashback". Flashback can damage the grill and
even cause injury.
Turn all control knobs on the control panel OFF ( O ).
Remove natural gas hose from natural gas supply line.
Lift and remove cooking and heat grates from inside the
grill.
Remove hitch pin securing the burner(s) to the bottom of
the grill.
