Troubleshooting Your Appliance
GENERAL TROUBLE SHOOTING
Inspect the burners at least once a year or immediately if any of the following conditions occur:
• The smell of gas.
• Flames appearing mostly yellow. (Some yellow at the tips is OK.)
• The appliance will not get hot enough.
• Burners make a snapping noise after lighting.
SPIDER AND INSECT WARNING
Spiders and insects can nest in the burners of this and other appliances, which could
disrupt gas flow. This dangerous condition could cause a fire behind and beneath the
valve panel, damaging the grill and making it unsafe to operate. We recommend you
check the appliance and remove any spiders, insects and webs at least once a year to
reduce this risk.
WHEN TO LOOK FOR SPIDERS
You should inspect the appliance once a year or immediately after any of the following conditions occur:
1. The smell of gas in conjunction with the burner flames appearing yellow.
2. The appliance does not reach temperature.
3. The burners make popping noises.

If the appliance does not function properly, use the chart below before contacting your dealer for service.
You may save yourself the cost of a service call. Troubleshooting is for general purposes only. If the
problem still exists, contact your dealer or the nearest authorized agency for service.
