the AA battery.
Ensure the "+"
end is facing
up and out.
2. Ensure
the battery
is centered
and fits into
the electronic

electronic
ignition
assembly
behind
the
control
panel and the individual
burner
electrodes.

the distance
from the electrode
to the burner.
It should
be 1/8 to 1/4
inch from
the main
burner
and 1/8 to
3/16
inch from the side burner.
Question:
Sometimes
I hear a humming
sound
coming
from
my regulator.
What causes
this?
Answer:
The humming
sound
is gas flowing
through
the regulator.
This is more likely
to occur in periods
of high gas flow. A low
volume
of sound is normal
and will not
interfere
with the operation
of your grill.
Question:
My grill has a low flame
on some
burners,
or some burners
will not light at
all. What can cause this?
Answer
This can be caused
by the flow limiting
device,
which
is generally
triggered
by a
sudden
change
in pressure.
Opening
the tank valve too fast or shutting
the
burners
off using the tank valve can
cause this. To reset:
1. Close the LP Tank valve and disconnect
the regulator
assembly
from the tank.
2. Let the LP Tank sit for 10 minutes.
3. Open all burner
control
knobs,
including
the side burner,
to "HI"
at the same
time.
4. Close all burner
control
knobs.
5. Reconnect
the gas regulator
to the LP
tank.
6. Follow the burner
lighting
procedures
and light the burner
farthest
from the
LP tank.
Question:
Where
do I use my grill for safer
operation
and better
performance7
Answer:
Strong
winds
and low temperatures
can
affect
the heating
and performance
of
your gas grill so factor
in these
elements
when positioning
your
grill outdoors
for
cooking.
Use your grill at least 2 feet away from
any wall or surface.
