Using Your Side Burner
Read all instructions before you operate your side burner .
•
•
We recommend you wash your side burner with soap and water prior to lighting it for the first time. Oils are used during the manufacturing process and some residual oil may still be on the stainless steel parts of your side burner. Washing will reduce the possibility of discoloration.
We also recommend you keep your side burner covered when not in use. This will minimize the amount of dust and dirt that accumulates on your side burner and extend the life of your side burner.
Remember to use your Cal Flame side burner safely by following these reminders:
• It is dangerous to use side burners in any manner other than for what it is designed for.
•
Do not use charcoal in a side burner.
Do not heat sealed containers such as cans or jars on side burners.
Explosion may result resulting in injury or death. Any sealed container, such as a pressure cooker, must have a properly operating pressure relieve valve to minimize explosion hazard.
Never put combustible material such as paper, cloth, or flammable liquids on your side burner at any time. Do not use the side burner to store flammable materials.
Lighting the Side Burner
Each time you light the side burner, check the following:
• Inspect the hose before using the side burner. If there is excessive abrasion or wear, or if the hose is cut, it must be replaced prior to using the side burner. If you need a replacement hose, contact your Cal Flame dealer.
•
•
Ensure the area around the barbecue is clear of flammable substances such as gasoline, yard debris, wood, etc.
Ensure there is no blockage of the airflow through the vent space located below the face of the unit.
• When using propane gas:
• Keep the special ventilation openings in the enclosure free and clear of debris .

If connected to a propane cylinder, carefully inspect the rubber hose attached to the regulator before each use .
Ensure the propane cylinder, regulator, and rubber hose are installed in a location not subject to heating above 125º F (51º C) .
Ensure the burner flames burn evenly along both sides of each burner with a steady flame (mostly blue with yellow tipping). If burner flames are not normal, check the orifice and burner for insects or insect nests.
Ensure the in-line gas valve or gas cylinder valve is always shut
OFF when the side burner is not in use.
Do not operate the side burner with its cover closed or the back burner with its cover installed.

For natural gas units, make sure the shut off valve is on.
