Troubleshooting - Weber Genesis Silver A 55275 Owner's Manual

Problem
Burners burn with a yellow or
orange flame, in conjunction with
the smell of gas.
Burner does not light, or flame is
low in HIGH position.
Experiencing flare-ups:
CAUTION: Do not line the
bottom tray with aluminum foil.
Burner flame pattern is erratic.
Flame is low when burner is on
HIGH. Flames do not run the
whole length of the burner tube.
Inside of lid appears to be
"peeling." (Resembles paint
peeling.)
If problems cannot be corrected by using these methods, please contact the Customer
Service Representative in your region using the contact information sheet provided with
your manual.

Troubleshooting

Check
Inspect Weber Spider/Insect
screens for possible obstructions.
(Blockage of holes.)
Is fuel hose bent or kinked?
Does the Front burner light with a
match?
Are you preheating barbecue in the
prescribed manner?
Are the cooking grates and
®
Flavorizer bars heavily coated with
burned-on grease?
Is the bottom tray "dirty" and not
allowing grease to flow into catch
pan?
Are burners clean?
The lid is porcelain-on-steel, not
paint. It cannot "peel". What you are
seeking is baked on grease that has
turned to carbon and is flaking off.
THIS IS NOT A DEFECT.
