Keeping your BBQ’s burners free and clear of debris,
checking for obstructions including spider webs, will ensure that your family is protected from serious
safety hazards such as FLASH and GREASE Fires. For more information regarding these issues please visit
www.centrobbqs.com.
Spiders and insects are attracted to the smell of propane and natural gas, and often build nests inside your BBQ’s burners,
which is the root cause of a FLASH BACK FIRE. Lighting your burners without rst checking and cleaning out the Venturi
tubes, burner ports, and the inside of burners can lead to a serious ash re resulting in damage to the BBQ, property and/ or
personal injury.
See the Cleaning and Maintenance section of this manual for proper burner maintenance.
