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 grate and sear plates.

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.

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 sear plates.

Manually Lighting Main Grill and Infrared Sear Burners

1. Do not lean over the grill.

2. Remove the manual lighting extension (see following

illustration) and attach a match to the split ring.

Using Your Infrared Sear Burner

Infrared grilling produces intense heat which quickly sears the meat. Searing locks in flavor and juices while allowing the outer surface to absorb smoke and food aroma that is produced as grease and drippings are vaporized by the burner. The result is a crisp, flavorful outside with a tender, juicy inside.

■ Preheat the infrared sear burner for 5 minutes.

■ Ensure that meats are fully thawed and that all excess fat is

trimmed away prior to grilling.

■ Leave the burner set to HI when placing food on the grill to

sear.

■ Use the sear burner to sear meat 1 to 2 minutes on each side,

then move the meat to the main grill cooking surface to finish grilling to the desired doneness.

NOTE: View is shown with grates removed. Grates are

to be in place when using the infrared sear burner.
