PROBLEM SOLUTION
When I light the grill,
it does not flame
immediately
Regulator makes
noise.
--Make sure you have turned on the gas.
--Make sure it has a spark while you are trying to ignite the burner.
--Push in control knob and turn to ignite/preheat and hold for approximately 5 seconds
and then ignite the grill.
--Make sure your burner is clean.
--Vent hose on the regulator may be plugged or regulator may be faulty.
--Make sure the vent hole on the regulator is not obstructed. Clear the hole, close the
LP cylinder and gas control valves. Wait 10 minutes and re-start.
--When turning the LP cylinder valve on, do not cover vent hole on the regulator.
--Check your flames for proper performance . Replace regulator if the flames are not
correct.
--Purge the lines.
Grill only heats to
200-300 degrees.
Grill takes a long
time to preheat.
Burner flames are
not light blue.
--Ensure the temperature gauge is functioning properly. Hold a flame to the probe or
compare the grill gauge to an oven thermometer placed in the grill.
--Ensure correct start procedure. Prior to lighting grill, the gas control knobs should be
off. The propane bottle should be turned off. If not, wait 15 minutes. Turn cylinder all
the way on. Turn left burner to ignite, wait 5 seconds then ignite. Repeat for additional
burners.
--Check all gas connections for leaks with bubble test. If leaks are found, replace the
part or tighten the fitting.
--Normal preheat 500-600 degrees, takes about 10-15 min. Cold weather and wind
may effect your preheat time. Volcanic rock and Briquettes should not be used in
this BBQ.
--Too much or not enough air mixture for the flame.
--Elevation is the usually principal cause, however cold weather can affect the mixture.
--Grill is in a windy location.
