Problem
Cause
Check
Yellow or orange flame and the smell of gas.
1. Blockage in the venturi tube or orifice.
2. Orifice not seated properly in the venturi
Tube.
3. Bent or kinked hose.
1. Clean venturi (See section “Annual Mainte-
nance”).
2. Orifice must fit into venturi tube at least ¼”
to ½”
3. Check gas supply line. Also, check all
connections.
Burner does not light or flame is low in HIGH
position.
1. Could be a kink in the gas supply line.
2. LP tank could be low or empty.
3. LP regulator excess flow feature has been
activated.
1. Straighten
2. Refill LP cylinder
3. Turn grill control knobs off, close LP tank
valve and reopen valve slowly. Wait 5-
seconds before turning on grill valves
Erratic flame pattern from burner or flame is low
when burner control knob set at HIGH or flames
do not run the whole length of burner.
Dirty burner
Clean burner holes with a small pin. Be careful
not to enlarge holes
Constant flare-ups
1. Grill too cold before start of cooking.
2. Cooking grate or briquettes may be heavily
coated with burned-on grease.
3. Fatty foods.
4. Heat setting too high.
5. Briquettes laid out improperly allowing
grease to hit flame.
1. You should always pre-heat grill
for 5 to 10 minutes before cooking.
2. Clean cooking grate. Clean and turn over
briquettes.
3. Trim excessive fat from fatty
meats.
4. Lower heat setting.
5. Layout briquettes according to instructions
on page 18.
Briquettes have turned black.
Dripping grease has Burned-onto briquettes.
Turn briquettes over. Over time black side of
briquettes will self clean.
Food sticks to cooking grid.
1. Cooking grid is probably too hot.
2. Food being turned before sear lines are
produced.
1. Lower heat setting. Grids, especially Sear-
Magic transfer heat quickly. You’ll need to
experiment with heat setting to get the best
results. Or use a non-stick cooking spray.
2. Time food to turn over only once.
Flame blows out.
During periods of high wind and sometimes while
cooking on a low setting, flame may be
extinguished.
1. On cart, simply turn away from wind.
2. Increase the heat setting.
Oxidation Graying of grill head.
Due to extreme cooking temperatures and se-
vere weather conditions the grill body may bleed
through the paint and cause white spotting
(Oxidation).
Use a wire brush, sandpaper and wash with mild
soap to remove flaking paint and grease. Re-
paint with high quality heat resistant paint similar
to MHP’s BF-1 Paint.
Grill does not get hot.
1. See low flame above.
2. On natural gas, inadequate pressure at
grill.
3. Incorrect orifice.
1. See low flame above.
2. Check pressure. Should be at or near 7"
water column.
3. Check orifice size.
CAUTION: If problems can not be corrected using these methods, contact your local MHP dealer for assistance.
