Care and Maintenance
To Reinstall Burner
1. Be sure the gas valve orifices are correctly
positioned inside the burner inlet.
2. Reattach the bolt/nut combination.
3. Reposition flame tents, cooking racks, and
warming rack.
Changing AA Battery
When changing the AA battery, make sure to only use
standard AA batteries, ensuring the proper polarity
when positioning the battery. Remove the Igniter
button cape and insert the AA battery so the positive

battery box.
