EMERGENCIES: If a gas leak cannot be stopped, or a fire occurs due to gas leakage, call the fire department.
Gas leaking from
hose.
Gas leaking from LP
cylinder.
Gas teaking from LP
cylinder valve_
Gas leaking between Li
cylinder and regulator
connection.
Fire coming through
control panel
Grease fire or
continuous excessive
flames above cooking
surface.
Troubleshooting
• Damaged hose,
° Mechanical failure due to rustingor
mishandling.
• Failureof cylinder valve from
mishandlingor mechanicalfailure.
• Improper installation,connection not
tight, failure of rubber seal.
° Firein burner tube section of burner
due to blockage.
° Too muchgrease buildup in burner
area.
• Turn off gas at LPcylinder or at source on natural gas systems.
If the hose is cracked or cut but not burned, simply replace
valve / hose / regulator
If the hose is burned, the cause could
be other than a faulty valve/hose/regulator.
Discontinue use of
grill until a plumber or gas technician has investigated and
corrected the problem.
• Replace LPcylinder.
• Turn off LPcylinder valve. Return LPcylinder to gas supplier.
• Turn off LPcylinder valve. Remove regulator from cylinder and
visually inspect rubber seal for damage. See LPCylinder Leak
Test and Connecting Regulator to the LPCylinder.
• Turn off control knobs and LPcylinder valve. Leave lid open to
allow flames to die down. After fire is out and grill is cold,
remove burner and inspect for spider nests or rust. See Spider
Alert and Cleaning the Burner Assembly sections of this Use &
Care Guide.
• Turn off control knobs and LPcylinder valve. Leave lid open to
allow flames to die down. After cooling, clean food particles
and excess grease from inside firebox area, grease tray, and
other surfaces.
Burner(s) will not light
using igniter:
(See Electronic
Ignition
Troubleshooting also)

GAS ISSUES:
° Trying to light 'wrong burner
• Burner not engaged
with
control
valve.
• Obstruction in burner.
• No gas flow.
• Vapor
lock at coupling
nut to LP
cylinder.
• Coupling nut and LP cylinder valve not
fully connected
• Electrode cracked or broken; "sparks
at crack_
• Electrode tip not in proper position.
• Wire and/or electrode covered with
cooking residue.
• Wires are loose or disconnected
• Wires are shorting (sparking)
between igniter and dectrode_
• Dead battery.
° See instructions on control panel and in Use and Care section.
• Make sure valves are positioned inside of burner tubes.
• Ensureburner tubes are not obstructed with spider webs or
other matter. See cleaning sectionof Useand Care.
• Make sure LPcylinder is not empty. If LPcylinder is not empty,
refer to _Sudden drop in gas flowJ_
° Turnoff knobsand disconnect coupling nut from LPcylinder
Reconnectand retry.
• Turn the coupling nut approximately
oneohalf to three-quarters
additional turn until solid stop. Tighten by hand only - do not use
tools.
• Replace electrode (s}.
Main Burners:
• Tip of electrode should be pointing toward gas po4 opening
on burner. The distance should be 1/8 _ to 1/4 _ Adjust if
necessary.
Sideburner
• Tip of electrode should be pointing toward gas port opening
on burner, the distance should be 1/8'_to 3/16". Adiust if
necessary
° Clean wire and/or electrode with rubbing alcohol and clean
swab.
• Reconnect wires or replace electrode/wire
assembly
• Replace igniter wire/eiectrode
assembly.
• Replace with a new AA-size alkaline battery.
