Manually Lighting the Burners
WARNING: Do not use standard matches or cigarette
lighters to perform match lighting procedures.
Serious burns can occur and lighters can explode.
1. Open the hood.
2. If you have just attempted to light the burner,
allow five minutes for any accumulated gas to
dissipate.
3. Slide out the drip tray from the grill.
4. Keep your face as far away from the burners as
possible.
5. Light and insert a long stem match, holding it
near the burner ports.
6. Push in and turn the control knob just past the
LIGHT position to HIGH.
7. Listen for the sound of the gas igniting. If the
burner does not light after five seconds, turn
the control knobs to the OFF position. Wait five
minutes until the gas clears before attempting to
light it again.
8. If the burner does not light after several attempts
see Troubleshooting Guide in the back of this
manual.
Proper Burner Flame
The burner flame has been set in the factory and
should already be adjusted for proper height and
intensity. Periodically, you may wish to check each
burner’s flame for color, height, and intensity.
Remove the grill rack and the flame tamer over the
burner you want to inspect.
When the burner is operating properly, the flame will
appear between light to dark blue, with occasional
yellow bursts (due to impurities in propane -- this is
normal).
When the burner is set on high, the flame spreads
out about ½” away from the side of the burner. (See
top figure at right.)
When the burner is set on low, the flame should be
just slightly visible when viewed from the side. (See
bottom figure at right.)
Note: Flame that is mostly yellow or golden in color
is often due to foreign matter in the burner. You
may need to clean your burners. See page 24 for
instruction on removing and cleaning your burners.
