Open the lid, push and turn the grill control
knob to the LITE position and immediately
turn the rotary igniter knob of the spark igniter
next to the grill control knob. You will hear a
snapping sound. At the same time a spark will
be provided at the grill burner.
It may be necessary to turn the rotary igniter
knob several times until the burner is lit.
If the burner does not light in 4 seconds,
turn both knobs to OFF and wait 5 minutes,
for any accumulated gas to dissipate, before
trying again.
On some models, a match stick extension rod
is provided inside the grill drip pan. To match
light a main grill burner, insert the UNLIT
match stick securely into the clip end of the
extension rod. Keep your face as far away from
the grill as possible, light the match stick and,
holding the end of the rod, pass the flame of
the lit match through the grill rack, past the
radiant tray directly in front of a burner port.
Push and turn the control knob, which is
centered on the burner you are trying to light,
to the LITE position. If the burner does not
light after 4 seconds, turn the knob OFF. Wait
5 minutes, for any accumulated gas to dissipate,
before trying to light the burner again. If the
burner will not light after several attempts see
the Problem Solver in the back of this guide.
On some models, a match lighting hole is
provided on the top left and right edges under
the lid. Open the lid and use the lighting hole
on the left top edge. Push and turn the control
knob, which is centered on the burner you wish
to light, to LITE. If the burner does not light in
4 seconds turn the knob OFF. Wait 5 minutes
and try again. If the burner will not light after
several attempts, see the Problem Solver in the
back of this guide.
NOTE:
• Do not attempt to light the grill if the odor
of gas is present. Call for service.
• Always wait 5 minutes before relighting a
hot grill.
