Your Weber gas barbecue, as well as any outdoor gas appliance, is a target for spiders
®
and other insects . They can nest in the venturi section (1) of the burner tubes . This
blocks the normal gas flow, and can cause the gas to flow back out of the combustion air
opening . This could result in a fire in and around the combustion air openings, under the
control panel, causing serious damage to your barbecue .
The burner tube combustion air opening is fitted with a stainless steel screen (2) to
prevent spiders and other insects access to the burner tubes through the combustion air
openings .
we recommend that you inspect the spider/insect screens at least once a year.
(refer to "aNNual maiNteNaNCe.") also inspect and clean the the spider/insect
screens if any of the following symptoms should ever occur:
A) Gas is smelled in conjunction with burner flames that appear yellow and lazy .
B) Barbecue does not reach temperature .
C) Barbecue heats unevenly .
D) One or more of the burners do not ignite .
m daNGer
failure to correct the above mentioned symptoms may result
in a fire, which can cause serious bodily injury or death, and
cause damage to property.
