Problem

Possible Causes

Solution

Flames lift away from

burner, accompanied

by the smell of gas, and

possibly difficulties in

lighting.

Improper air shutter adjustment.

Close air shutter slightly according to

combustion air adjustment instructions.

(This must be done by a qualified gas

installer.)

Humming regulator.

Normal occurrence on hot days.

This is not a defect. It is caused by internal

vibrations in the regulator and does not

affect the performance or safety of the

gas grill. Humming regulators will not be

replaced.

Burners will not cross

light each other.

Plugged ports at back of burner.

Clean burner ports. See burner

maintenance instructions.

“Paint” appears to be

peeling inside lid or hood.

Grease build-up on inside surfaces.

This is not a defect. The finish on the lid

and hood is porcelain, and will not peel.

The peeling is caused by hardened grease,

which dries into paint-like shards, that

flake off. Regular cleaning will prevent this.

See cleaning instructions.

Infrared burner (if

equipped) flashes back

(during operation the

burner abruptly makes

a loud “whoosh” sound,

followed by a continuous

blow-torch type sound

and grows dim.)

Ceramic tiles overloaded with grease drippings

and build-up. Ports are clogged.

Burner overheated due to inadequate

ventilation (too much grill surface covered by

griddle or pan.)

Cracked ceramic tile.

Leaking gasket surrounding the ceramic tile, or

a weld failure in the burner housing.

Turn burner off and allow to cool for at

least two minutes. Relight burner and

burn on high for at least five minutes or

until the ceramic tiles are evenly glowing

red.

Ensure that no more than 75% of the

grill surface is covered by objects or

accessories. Turn burner off and allow to

cool for at least two minutes, then relight.

Allow burner to cool and inspect very

closely for cracks. If any cracks are found,

contact your authorized Napoleon dealer

to order a replacement burner assembly.
