Turn on fuel supply and retry.
Confirm the flow of gas by smell or by listening for the
hiss of gas being emitted. Allow gas to clear before
attempting to relight.
Weigh your propane cylinder. A standard 20 lb. cylinder
will weigh about 19 lbs. when it is empty and 39 lbs.
when it is 80% full.
Never take a propane cylinder indoors
for any purpose.
Confirm the venturi tubes are not blocked by insects
or other debris. Use a special venturi brush to clean.
(Fig. 15)
Use a wire brush or toothpick to carefully probe the
orifice in the gas valve. Never enlarge the orifice.
Look under the front control panel and re-insert the gas
injector into the venturi tube, if required. (Fig. 18)
Tighten the regulator’s plastic collar onto the cylinder
valve. Hand-tighten only. (Fig. 4)
For safety, the regulator coupling on your barbecue is
equipped with a flow control mechanism. This device
limits gas flow in the event of a sudden change in the
demand for gas. This may be engaged inadvertently, if
a burner control knob should be left ON when you open
the propane cylinder valve. Rapidly opening the valve
can also engage flow control. To resolve the problem,
close your cylinder valve. Confirm that all burner control
knobs are in the OFF position. Open the cylinder valve
slowly (about 1 to 2 turns) and wait 5 seconds. Finally,
turn a single burner ON and try relighting it.
Always shelter your Grill from strong winds.
Confirm the flow of gas by smell, or by listening for the
