valve. Gently clear any obstruction with a fine wire. Reinstall orifice, reinstall burners over
orifices and seat burner peg into position hole at the bottom ledge of the firebox. Replace cotter
pins. Replace cooking components and grease collectors. If an obstruction is suspected in the
control valve, please contact your local Cal Flame dealer for assistance.
Problem:
Misalignment of Igniter on Burner
Solution:
Check for proper position of electrode tip. The tip of the electrode should be pointing forward
towards the front of the burner and should be free of grease to allow proper sparking. The
ignition wire should be connected firmly to the valve ignition device and electrode. Replace the
ignition wire if it is frayed or cracked. With gas supply closed and all control knobs set to the off
position, check each position igniter individually for presence of spark at electrode. In turn, push
each knob in fully and rotate about 1/4 turn to the left (counter-clockwise) until you hear a loud
click. The trigger hitting the strike block should produce a blue spark at the electrode tip. Return
control knob to the off position before checking the next igniter.
While the grill is still hot, you must wait for a minimum of five minutes before commencing re-
ignition (this allows accumulated gas fumes to clear). If all checks/ corrections have been made
and gas grill fails to operate properly, contact your local Cal Flame dealer.
Problem:
Yellow Flame
Solution:
Once the entire burner is operating, check the flame color to be sure that flame color is mostly
blue. Some yellow at the tips may be present due to impurities in the fuel.
If the flame is golden or yellow in color, the reason could be seasoning salts, oil film, or other
foreign matter on the burner.
Problem:
Flashback
Solution:
When fire occurs in and around the burner tubes, immediately turn off gas at its source and turn
the control knob(s) clockwise to the 'OFF' position. Wait until the grill has cooled off and then
clean the burner tubes and burners as described on page of this manual.
Grill fails to operate properly:
1. Turn off gas at source, turn the Control Knobs to the 'OFF' position and wait five minutes before trying
again.
2. Check gas supply at a connections.
3. Repeat lighting procedure and if grill still fails to operate properly, turn off gas at source, turn the control
knobs to the off position and wait for the grill to cool down and check the following:
Note on the cross flow channel:
The cross flow channel machined into the bottom of the regular burner is designed to help distribute gas evenly
from one side of the burner to the other. You should be able to see daylight through this groove when held up
to the light. It is possible that this groove can become pinched. If this happens, place burner upside down on
the edge of a sturdy table with the groove even with the end of the table or slightly past the edge and lightly tap
with a hammer on the corners. (See Figure 55.) This should open the groove back up and allow the burner to
operate evenly.
