ATTENTION

Once lit, conﬁrm that the burner is properly lit and that the ﬂame pattern is as desired. If the

ﬂame pattern is other than normal, consult the troubleshooting guide for corrective action.

Burner Flame Check

Always do a visual check of all burners prior to lighting. The Coleman® EVEN

HEAT™ Burners have been factory set for the correct air and gas mixture.

The correct ﬂame pattern is shown in ﬁgure A. If you experience one of the

following symptoms, follow the burner cleaning procedure outlined in the

maintenance section of this manual, or reset the regulator Flow Limiting

Device:

• The ﬂames do not appear to be uniform throughout the burner tube

• The smell of gas in conjunction with the burner ﬂames appearing yellow and lazy

• Barbecue does not reach temperature

• Barbecue heats unevenly

• One or more of the burners do not ignite.

Flare-Ups

Flare-ups sometimes occur when food drippings fall onto the hot heat distribution plates or burners, and

ignite. Some ﬂare-up is normal and desirable, as it helps impart the unique ﬂavours associated with grilled

foods. Controlling the intensity of the ﬂare-ups is essential to avoid burned or unevenly cooked foods, and

to prevent un-controlled grease ﬁres from erupting.

WARNING

Always monitor the barbecue carefully while cooking and turn the ﬂame level to low, or o, if

ﬂare-ups intensify.

To keep ﬂare-ups to the desired level, do the following:

• Trim fat from meats before grilling.

• Always cook with the lid down, and cook at the lowest most ecient heat setting.

• Ensure that the heat distribution plates, cooking grates and the bottom of the ﬁrebox are cleaned

regularly to eliminate grease build up.

• Flare-ups can increase the temperature of the barbecue and add to the buildup of grease, increasing

the risk of a grease ﬁre. Keeping your barbecue clean, and regularly checking for obstructions,

including; spider webs, will ensure that your family is protected from serious safety hazards, such as

“Flash-Back” and “Grease Fires”.

WARNING

Old grease accumulated on key parts, such as heat plates, cooking grates and the lower burner

box, is highly ﬂammable. Avoid dangerous ﬂare-up and grease ﬁres by regularly removing and

cleaning key parts.

Grease Fires

Characteristics of a Grease Fire

• A ﬁre burning inside the barbecue burner box that may become uncontrollable, if not monitored

• Usually accompanied by high ﬂames, a lot of smoke and black soot

Prevent Grease Fires:

• Remove grease build-up on key parts such as heat distribution plates, cooking grates, and burner box

• Frequently cleaning the QUICK CLEAN™ grease collection plate and grease cup

• Always reducing cooking temperature to MED or LOW heat, following PREHEAT.

• Performing a burn-o of grease prior to each barbecue session, by adjusting your barbecues temperature

to “HI”, and letting it stand for 10-15 minutes with the lid closed.
