Spider Inspection
You should inspect the burners/venturi tubes at least once a year, or
immediately if any of the following conditions occur.
• The smell of gas along with the burner flames appearing yellow.
• The grill does not reach the proper temperatures.
• The grill heats unevenly.
• The burners make a popping noise.
Cleaning and Maintenance
WARNING
SPIDER AND INSECT INFESTATION
Spiders and insects can nest in the burners/venturi tubes of this
or any other grill, and cause the gas to flow from the front of the
burner. This is a very dangerous condition that can cause a fire
to occur behind the valve panel, thereby damaging the grill and
making it unsafe to operate.
Troubleshooting
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE AND/OR REMEDY
T-Series grill won’t light when
the ignitor is pressed Make sure the control knob is off (no gas
is on). Remove the grill rack and the flavor
generator plates. Watch the ignitor tip. You
should see a spark jump from the tip of the
ignitor when the button is pressed. Do the
other burners work? Make sure the ignitor
tip is clean and free from debris. Check
battery to electronic ignition.
Burner flame is yellow or
orange and a gas odor is
present Check the burner inlet for obstructions.
Check the air shutter for proper adjustment.
Low heat with knob on
“HIGH” Is the fuel hose bent or kinked? Is there
adequate gas supply available? If only one
burner appears low, does the orifice or
burner need cleaning? Are any other gas
appliances at the location below normal
rate? Is the air shutter too far open or
closed? Is the gas supply or gas
pressure low?
Burner will not light Is there a spark at the thermocouple? Can
you match light the burner using the flame
parts?
Burner lights, but will not
hold flame once button is
released Is the thermocouple kinked or bent away
from the burner? Readjust to lay flat against
burner. Is the safety valve button being
depressed long enough? Hold button in
until burner remains lit. Check for black
spots on the infrared screen.
If your grill rotisserie should
fail to operate Is the electrical cord securely inserted in the
electrical outlet? Is the circuit breaker open,
or is a fuse blown?
