  CARE & USE/INSTALLATION
GRILL WON’T LIGHT
First, confirm that the grill is getting electricity by turning 
on the lights, then:
Check The Igniters 
Your Lynx grill uses an electric ignition system that does not 
spark. Instead, the igniters should glow constantly when a 
control knob is pushed in. 
• Ensure that all burner controls are set to OFF. 
• Watch an igniter as you push in and hold the 
corresponding control knob (Be sure you push in the 
correct control knob and keep the knob in the “OFF” 
position).
• Check the remaining igniters. If igniters don’t glow, 
proceed with troubleshooting or match-light the burner.
Check The Burners
If the igniters are working check to see if gas is reaching the 
burners by attempting to match light a burner. 
BE CAREFUL! IF THE BURNER FAILS TO IGNITE, WAIT 
5 MINUTES BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO IGNITE OTHER 
BURNERS! (See INDEX: “Match Lighting” for further 
details.)
If match lighting doesn’t work, re-check fuel connections for 
leaks and ensure the supply is of the correct type and is of 
adequate pressure. (See INDEX: “Leak Test Procedure” for 
further details.) 
If the burner will light with a match, then the igniter may 
not be functioning correctly. Call for service. 
If the burner will not match light, and you know you are 
getting gas, wait for any gas to dissipate and remove the 
burner and check it for blockages.
SMELL OF GAS WHILE COOKING
IF YOU SMELL GAS WHILE THE GRILL IS OPERATING, 
IMMEDIATELY TURN OFF ALL BURNERS AND SHUT OFF 
THE MAIN FUEL SUPPLY. 
• Perform a leak test (See INDEX: “Leak Test Procedure” 
for further details.)
LOW OR INSUFFICIENT HEAT
No part of the grill should ever be lined with aluminum foil. 
Doing so will interfere with airflow and can cause a low heat 
condition.
Ensure that you’ve preheated the Trident ™ burner for 3 
minutes. 
Proper leveling during installation is critical. A grill that 
is  out  of  level  will  cause  erratic  bur ner  combustion  and 
inefficient, uneven heating. A carpenter’s spirit level 
should be used to level the grill both front-to-back and 
side-to-side.
If the low heat problem persists:
• Check the gas supply line sizing requirements.
• Check the gas supply line for kinks or damage. 
REPLACE any damaged supply lines.
