WEBER ® SPIDER /INSECT SCREENS
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 fl ow, and can cause the gas
to fl ow back out of the combustion air opening. This could result in a fi re in
and around the combustion air openings, under the control panel, causing
serious damage to your barbecue.
The burner tube combustion air opening is fi tted 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. (See Section “Annual Maintenance”.) Also inspect and clean the
the Spider/Insect screens if any of the following symptoms should ever
occur:
1)
The smell of gas in conjunction with the burner fl ames appearing yellow
and lazy.
2) Barbecue does not reach temperature.
3) Barbecue heats unevenly.
4) One or more of the burners do not ignite.
