PROBLEM

Grill will not light with a match or low heat
with dial set to "High" position.

Flame is erratic

Flare-ups

Burner flame is mostly yellow or orange, pos-
sibly in conjunction with smell of gas.

SOLUTION

• Is your gas supply fully turned on?

• If this is an L.P. grill is there gas in your tank ?

Check your gas level.

• If this is an L.P. grill, shut off gas supply, dis-

connect gas line at tank, reconnect the line to
the tank.

• Make sure all the knobs are in the off position,

then open the gas supply valve on the L.P. tank
very slowly 1/4 turn, then open fully (at least
two full turns). Check flame height again.

• Check to insure the gas supply line or hose is

not kinked.

• If only one burner appears low, check and

clean the burner ports if clogged or dirty.

• Check for leaks.

Note - Pre-Heating time can take from 5 to 10

minutes.

• Check gas connection

- look for kinked hose.
- make sure gas supply valve is fully open.

• Gas level may be low.

• Grill may be in need of cleaning.

• Check flavor grids and cooking grates for

excess food or grease build-up.

• Ensure grill is not placed directly in the path of

wind.

• Be sure drip trays are clean, (do not use alu-

minum foil on drip trays.)

Note: Some flare-ups may be inevitable if
cooking greasy foods.

• Check the burner inlet for obstructions.

Particularly at air inlets for each burner.

• Grill may be in an area that is too windy.
