MAINTENANCE
ELECTRONIC IGNITION INSPECTION
If the Electronic Ignition System fails to ignite, be sure there is gas flow by attempting to
match light your burners. Refer to “MANUAL LIGHTING”. If match lighting is successful,
the problem lies is the electronic ignition.
m WARNING: Gas control and supply valve should be in the
OFF position.

PERIODIC QUICK CLEANING
We recommend that you periodically brush the outside of the burner slots with a wire
brush and clean the burner tube through the combustion air vent with the matchstick
holder we have provided.
This can be done by locating the burner combustion air vent (1) underneath the bowl
bracket and inserting the tool through each combustion air vent, rotating the tool. Be
careful when inserting the matchstick holder not to damage the igniter electrode.
m CAUTION: It is important to increase the frequency of this
cleaning procedure during the spring and summer months.

BURNER FLAME PATTERN
The burner has been factory set for the correct air and gas mixture. The correct flame
pattern should have yellowish tips (4) dark blue in the middle (5), and light blue at the
burner tube (6). If the flames do not appear as shown, or if “popping” noises occur,
follow the burner cleaning procedures.
