Insert screwdriver blade in slot and
twist with slight pressure to allow air
shutter to slide easily.
The left hand air shutter controls the rear half of

Slide air shutter backward or forward to increase
or decrease the size of the air opening. Air shutters
fit snugly on the grill burner, so a screwdriver
blade may be required to make this adjustment
(see illustration). The snug fit of the air shutter
assures it will remain positioned correctly.
