TROUBLESHOOTING
Inspect Spider / Insect Screens for possible obstructions
(blockage of holes.)
The excess fl ow safety device, which is part of the
barbecue to cylinder connection, may have activated.
Is LP fuel low or empty?
Is fuel hose bent or kinked?
Does Burner 1 light with a match?
Are you preheating barbecue in the prescribed manner?
Are the cooking grates and Flavorizer
coated with burned-on grease?
Is the bottom tray "dirty" and not allowing grease to fl ow
into catch pan?
Are burners clean?
The lid is porcelain enamel or stainless steel, not paint. It
cannot "peel". What you are seeing is baked-on grease
that has turned to carbon and is fl aking off.
THIS IS NOT A DEFECT.
Check the adjustment pin on the bottom of each door.
