The air shutter is factory set andshould not need adjusting under normal conditions. Under extreme field conditions, adjustments might berequired. When the air shutter is adjusted correctly the flames will be dark blue, tipped with light blue andoccasionally yellow.• With too little air flow to the burner, the flames are lazy yellow and can produce soot.• With too much air flow, the flames lift erratically and can cause difficulties when lighting.Adjusting the air shutter:1. Remove cooking grids and sear plates and leave lid open. You may have to open the door or remove thetop drawer (if equipped) to access the air-shutter screw located at the mouth of the burner. The back covermust be removed for rear tube burner air shutter adjustment.2. Loosen air-shutter lock screw and open or close air shutter as required.
