d. the rear hangers fi t into the slots at the back
of the fi rebox (see Fig. 3-1).
7. When the IR burner is fi rmly in place (Fig. 3-2),
connect the IR ignitor wire to the spark ignitor (when
you replace the grill face) (Fig. 3-3) in the following
confi gurations:
For Deluxe grills:
plug in the IR burner ignitor wire; re attach the
ground wire.
For Regal & Custom grills WITHOUT
backburners:
unplug the ground (green) wire from the ignition
module and plug in the IR burner wire.
For Regal & Custom grills WITH backburners
and a 2-pole spark module:
the existing spark module must be replaced with
a 4-pole module (Part # 3199-34). The installation
instructions are supplied with the replacement
module.
When it has been replaced, plug in your IR burner
wire to a spare pole, and add a ground wire (ground
to grill manifold nut). Do not leave the 4th pole open,
as this will affect the overall sparking potential.
Important: All plugs on the spark module must have
a ground or ignitor wire attached.
8. Carefully replace the face, checking all wires are
connected to the spark ignitor.
9. Replace the burner valve knobs. Test the spark
ignitor and look for a spark at all electrodes including
IR ignitor. If spark is present, replace fl avor grids
(DO NOT place a fl avor grid on IR burner), cooking
grids, and face screws. If no spark is detected check
that the wiring is correctly connected to the spark
ignitor, and that battery has suffi cient power. If in
doubt replace the battery.
Important: Ensure the bare IR ignitor electrode wire
does not touch the side of the IR burner
as this will cause shorting and no spark
at the electrode tips (Fig. 3-4).
