CAUTION
Possible cause and or remedy
Make sure the control knob is off (no gas is on). Remove the
grill rack and the ceramic briquette trays. Watch the ignitor tip.
You should see a spark jump from the tip of the ignitor when
the button is pressed. Do the other burners work? Make sure
the ignitor tip is clean and free from debris.
Check the burner inlet for obstructions. Check the air shutter
for proper adjustment.
Is the fuel hose bent or kinked? Is there adequate gas supply
available? If only one burner appears low, does the orifice or
burner need cleaning? Are any other gas appliances at the
location below normal rate? Is the air shutter too far open or
closed? Is the gas supply or gas
pressure low?
Is there a spark at the thermocouple? Can you match light the
burner?
Is the thermocouple kinked or bent away from the burner?
Readjust to lay flat against burner. Is the knob being depressed
long enough? Hold button in until burner remains lit. Check for
black spots on the infrared screen.
Is the electrical cord securely inserted in the electrical outlet? Is
the circuit breaker open, or is a fuse blown?
