Troubleshooting
WHEN TO LOOK FOR SPIDERS
To prevent the flashback from occurring, you should inspect
the burners at least once a year or immediately if any of the
following conditions occur:
1.
The smell of gas along with the burner flames appearing
yellow. (Flames should generally be blue.)
2.
The Grill does not reach temperature.
3.
Burner(s) will not light.
4.
The Grill heats unevenly.
5.
Fire coming from around or behind control knob.
6.
The burners make popping noises.
STOP! Turn off gas at LP cylinder. Wait for grill to cool
and follow the U-Burner Cleaning instruction in the Care
& Maintenance section.
STAINLESS STEEL
Your VINTAGE grill is made from commercial quality,
stainless steel. After initial usage, areas of the grill may
discolor from the intense heat emitted by the burners.
This is normal. Minor surface rust may occur in the
presence of salt (ocean) water or some cleaning agents
that contain chlorine.
Wash with warm soapy water and wipe dry with a soft
cloth after each use.
Due to the nature of its brushed surface, minor scratches
may appear with normal use and handling. To clean the
stainless steel, purchase a mild stainless steel cleaner and
use a fine to medium grade Scotch-Brite polishing pad.
Never use steel wool on stainless steel.
ALWAYS SCRUB IN THE DIRECTION OF THE
GRAIN. DO NOT SCRUB IN CIRCULAR MOTION.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Always keep the area around the grill free of obstructions and
debris. Maintain at least 3" of space around grill to ensure proper
airflow, and keep all ventilation openings clear and free of debris.
Visually check flame characteristics and compare to description on
page 12. Adjust if needed. Clean appliance after each use, and
check for blockages, especially at the burner orifices, after periods
of prolonged non-use.
To maintain the appearance of your VINTAGE Grill for many
years, keep it covered when not in use. Backyard environments are
harsh on your grills' finish. Long exposure to sun, water, yard
chemicals and the elements will reduce the appearance of the
stainless steel. This is especially applicable in ocean front locations,
or locations subject to sea mists. VINTAGE Grills strongly
recommends that you cover your Grill when not in use.
SPIDER AND INSECT INSPECTION
Sometimes spiders and other small insects
spin webs and build a home in the burner
and venturi. The webs or nests can be
small, but they can be very strong and
block the flow of gas. This can result in a
very dangerous condition called
“flashback” (a fire in the burner tubes)
thereby damaging the grill and making it
unsafe to operate. The grill may still
light,
