Keep gas regulator hose away from hot grill

surfaces and dripping grease. Avoid unneces- sary twisting of hose. Visually inspect hose

prior to each use for cuts, cracks, excessive wear or other damage. If the hose appears damaged do not use the gas grill. Call Sears at 1-800-4-MY-HOME _ (1-800-469-4663) for a

Kenmore replacement hose.

1. Remove the screw from the rear of each Burner using a Phillips Head Screwdriver.

2. Carefully lift each Burner up and away from the Gas Valve Orifice.

3. Check and clean Burner/Venturi Tubes for insects and insect nests. A clogged tube can lead to a fire

beneath the grill.

4. Refer to the figure below and perform one of

these 3 cleaning methods:

[] METHOD 1: Bend a stiff wire or wire coat

hanger into a small hook as shown and run the hook through the Burner Tube and inside

the Burner several times to remove debris.

[] METHOD 2: Use a bottle brush with a flexible

handle and run the brush through the Burner Tube and inside the Burner several times to

remove any debris.

[] METHOD 3: Use an air hose to force air

through each Burner Tube. The forced air should pass debris or obstructions through the

Burner and out the Ports.

For safe operation ensure the Gas Valve Assem- bly Orifice is inside the Burner Tube before using your grill. See figure. If the Orifice is not inside the Burner Tube, lighting the Burner may cause explosion and/or fire resulting in serious bodily

injury and/or property damage.

PRE-ASSEMBLY

Read and perform the following pre-assembly instructions:

[] Tools Required for Assembly include:

• protective work gloves

• protective eyewear

• #3 Phillips Head Screwdriver (included in Hardware Pack in parts box)

[] You will need assistance from another person to handle

the grill head and other large, heavy parts.

[] Open Lid of shipping carton and remove parts box

and packing materials. Lay cardboard sheet on floor and use as a work surface to protect floor and grill parts from scratches.

[]

You may slice the carton front corners with a utility knife to lay open the carton front panel.

Use the sliced off carton front as a work surface to protect floor and grill parts from scratches.

[] Use the Hardware and Part Diagrams to ensure all

items are included and free of damage.
