LOW HEAT ADJUSTMENT
Your Grill is preset at the factory for the original gas type. Adjust if you change the gas type, or if altitude or environmental factors (such as wind) are causing poor performance at low heat, such as blowing out.
NEVER ADJUST THE BURNER SO LOW THAT IT MAY GO OUT DURING USE. DO NOT OPERATE GRILL WITH LOW HEAT SCREW REMOVED.
If is best to perform this adjustment in a low light setting, such as at dusk, or with the hood almost closed, so that you can visually detect small changes in burner intensity.
- Follow lighting instructions and allow infrared burners to preheat for 3 min.; conventional burners for 10 min.
- Turn the control knob to LOW and wait for the burner temperature to drop and stabilize. Attempting adjustment at any setting other than LOW can create a dangerous condition.
- Remove the knob by pulling straight away from control panel (see Fig. 5).
- Insert a small (.10" wide) blade screwdriver (such as the Solaire screwdriver supplied with your grill) into the valve stem. Turn counter-clockwise to increase low heat, clockwise to reduce low heat. You want to have the level of gas just above the point that you observe a "flutter" at the burner surface.
- Once proper adjustment is reached, reattach knob by pushing onto stem.
