Burner not engaged with control valve.
•
Obstruction in burner.
•
No gas flow.
•

PREVENTION / SOLUTION
•
Turn off gas at source on natural gas system or at LP cyl-
inder. Discontinue use of product and replace valve/hose/
regulator. Once valve/hose/regulator replaced conduct
complete leak check per Leak Checking Your Grill.
•
Replace LP cylinder.
•
Turn off LP cylinder valve. Return LP cylinder to gas
supplier.
•
Turn off LP cylinder valve. Remove regulator from cylinder
and visually inspect rubber seal in cylinder valve for
damage. If damage or cannot correct leak replace cylinder.
See LP Cylinder Leak Test and Connecting Regulator to the
LP Cylinder.
•
Turn off control knobs and LP cylinder 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 Natural Hazard and Cleaning the Burner Assembly
pages.
•
Turn off control knobs and LP cylinder 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.
PREVENTION / SOLUTION
•
See instructions on control panel and in Use and Care sec-
tion.
•
Make sure valves are positioned inside of burner tubes.
•
Ensure burner tubes are not obstructed with spider webs or
other matter. See cleaning section of Use and Care.
•
Make sure LP cylinder is not empty. If LP cylinder is not
empty, refer to "Sudden drop in gas flow."
•
Turn the coupling nut approximately one-half to three-quar-
ters 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 port 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".
Adjust if necessary.
•
Clean wire and/or electrode with rubbing alcohol and clean
swab.
•
Reconnect wires or replace electrode/wire assembly.
•
Replace ignitor wire/electrode assembly.
