INSECT ALERT
Your Performer Grill, as well as any outdoor gas appliance, is a target for spiders and
insects. They can nest in the venturi section (1) of the burner tube causing gas to flow
back out of the air shutter.
This could result in a fire in and around the burner tube under the bowl panel. It can
cause serious damage to your barbecue, rendering it unsafe to operate.
We strongly recommend that you inspect and clean the burner tube at least once a year,
or if any of the following symptoms occur:
1. The smell of gas in conjunction with the burner flames appearing very yellow and
lazy.
2. Burner makes popping noises.
m DANGER
Failure to correct these symptoms may result in a fire which
can cause serious bodily injury or death and cause damage
to property.
