Solution
Ensure lighting procedure is followed
carefully. All gas grill valves must be in the
off position when the tank valve is turned
on. Turn tank on slowly to allow pressure to
equalize. See lighting instructions.
Pipe must be sized according to installation
code.
Preheat grill with both main burners on high
for 10 to 15 minutes.
Ensure sear plates are installed with the
holes towards the front and the slots on the
bottom. See assembly instructions.
Preheat grill with both main burners on high
for 10 to 15 minutes.
Clean sear plates and drip pan regularly. Do
not line pan with aluminum foil. Refer to
cleaning instructions.
Thoroughly clean burner by removing. See
general maintenance instructions. Open air
shutter slightly according to combustion air
adjustment instructions. (This must be done
by a qualified gas installer.)
Close air shutter slightly according to
combustion air adjustment instructions. (This
must be done by a qualified gas installer.)
Clean jet-fire outlet with a soft bristle brush.

vibrations in the regulator and does not affect
the performance or safety of the gas grill.
Humming regulators will not be replaced.

Reposition supply hose as necessary.
Clean burner orifice.
Clean out venturi tube.
Ensure lighting procedure is followed
