TROUBLESHOOTING
3. Reinsert the burner and test. If the
flames are BLUE but are noisy (like a torch)
and appear to ‘lift’ off the burner, then
repeat the process by sliding the shutter
FORWARD slightly, to modify the
adjustment, until the flames are blue,
stable, and quiet.
IF YOU SMELL OF GAS
1. If you smell gas while the appliance is lit,
IMMEDIATELY TURN OFF ALL BURNERS AND
SHUT OFF THE MAIN FUEL SUPPLY
2. Perform a leak test per the instructions
under the ‘GAS CONNECTIONS’ section of
this manual entitled ‘LEAK TEST
PROCEEDURE’. If no leaks are found, check
for blockages in the burner inlets (venturis).
Refer to the section of this manual entitled
‘CLEANING THE BURNERS’. If you are
uncomfortable with performing these tests
yourself, then call your local gas company.
APPLIANCE DOES NOT LIGHT AFTER A
LONG PERIOD OF TIME
Insects are attracted to the smell of gas.
Check the burner(s) and valve orifices to be
sure they are clear of any spider webs or
nests. The burner(s) should be cleaned at
least once a year for optimum performance.
APPLIANCE DOES NOT LIGHT AFTER RAIN
STORM OR WET CONDITIONS
The electronic ignition has most likely
become wet or saturated.
1. Manually light your grill using a long
wooden match or stick lighter. Follow the
instructions in this manual entitled ‘Manual
Lighting of Your Grill’. After the burner(s)
has been running for a few minutes, shut
OFF the burner(s) and try relighting again
using the electronic igniters.
2. If your attempt to relight the burner(s)
fails using the electronic igniter, try
replacing the AAA battery in the ignition
button assembly. Saturated batteries take a
long time to dry out and sometimes never
recover. See section titled ‘Igniter is Not
Sparking’ for battery replacement.
VALVE DOES NOT TURN FREELY
Never attempt to lubricate valves. They are
sealed and lubricated at the time of
manufacture. They do not require further
maintenance. If your valves are hard to
turn, then they need to be replaced. Refer
to the parts lists at the end of this manual
or contact your dealer where the grill was
purchased
