INSTALLATION / USE & CARE
BEFORE YOU CALL FOR SERVICE
Please check a few things before calling for service:
• Is there fuel supplied to the grill?
• Is the main shut-o valve open?
• Are you using the correct type of fuel? (LP or Natural Gas)
(See INDEX: “Gas Requirements” for further details.)
• Is your propane cylinder empty? Have you recently refi lled
the propane cylinder? If so, is the connection tight?
• Have you opened the valve on the propane cylinder?
• Is the grill plugged in to a live electric circuit?
If you’ve checked the above items, review the trouble-
shooting list below before calling for service.
GRILL WON’T LIGHT
First, confi rm that the grill is getting electricity by turning on
the lights, then:
Check The Igniters
Your 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.
• Remove the cooking grates and briquette trays.
• Watch an igniter as you push in and hold the
corresponding control knob. You will need either a small
mirror or shiny metal object to see the igniter under its
cover.
(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.
