INSTALLATION / USE & CARE
|
31
• Check the Regulator
Make sure that the regulator & hose assembly is the one
designed for and supplied with your grill and that it is
correctly set up for the type of fuel you are using.
The hose and regulator provided must be used if your grill
is set-up for an LP Gas Cylinder. Ensure the LP hose is not
behind the grill.
Check that there is no physical pressure being applied to
the regulator attached to the back of the grill. The regulator
contains a fl exible diaphragm and should not be allowed to
touch the grill body or its surroundings.
• Check for Obstructions
Ensure that the burners and drip tray are clean and free from
obstructions.
LP (Propane) units:
• Is the cylinder almost empty?
Almost-empty cylinders may not have suffi
cient pressure to
run the burners at high heat.
• Have the line pressure checked by a qualifi ed technician
• Flow Limiting Device
Improper lighting procedures may have activated the LP
cylinder’s fl ow control device, reducing the heat output.
To reset the fl ow control:
• Shut off all burner controls and close the LP cylinder valve.
• Wait 30 seconds and, very slowly, reopen the cylinder
valve.
• Wait a few seconds and relite a burner.
Bulk LP cylinder users:
Bulk LP cylinder lines must be properly regulated.
Ensure that you are using a 4/11 appliance regulator supplied
by Lynx and converted to LP gas. Also ensure that you do not
have more than one regulator in line.
Natural Gas units:
• Supply Line
Ensure that the supply line is at least 3/4” inside diameter or
1” outside diameter.
• Check line pressure
Natural gas inlet pressure should be at least 5” W.C. and
manifold pressure not less than 4” W.C. under full load (with
all burners on.)
• Check burners for blockages.
• Check fl ame characteristics.
POTENTIAL PROBLEMS
...
continued
WIND HITTING GRILL
Wind hitting the grill while in use, especially winds blowing
into or across the hood gap from behind, can cause poor
performance and in some cases can cause the control panel
to get dangerously hot.
Steady or gusty winds can prevent the normal exhaust of
hot gases. Locate your grill
away
from prevailing winds and
avoid grilling in windy conditions.
BURNER GOES OUT
• Location
First determine if the problem is being caused by location.
If the grill is subject to high winds, reposition it to provide
some protection.
• Check the Flame
Check the gas supply and fl ame characteristics. (See INDEX:
“Flame, Correct Size”)
• Burners Seated
Check to ensure that the burners are correctly positioned in
the grill.
Correctly-installed burners should be seated fi rmly and level
with no side-to-side movement.
BURNER GOES OUT ONLY WHEN SET TO “LOW”
The valves on the grill feature an adjustable low setting.
Fluctuations in gas pressure, gas conversion and even in the
quality of the gas itself may aff ect burner performance at the
“LOW” setting. It could be either too high or too low.
ROTISSERIE WON’T LIGHT
Follow the same procedure as described for the grill burners
to diagnose problems with the rotisserie burner.
BE CAREFUL! The rotisserie burner fl ame may be hard to
see in bright sunny conditions.
