If the burners on your Napoleon Grill burn with a yellow flame and are accompanied by the smell of gas, it may be due to a possible spider web or other debris, or improper air shutter adjustment. Thoroughly clean the burner by removing it, and open the air shutter slightly according to combustion air adjustment instructions.
Why does the 'paint' appear to be peeling inside my Napoleon MIRAGE 485 lid?
The 'paint' appearing to peel inside your Napoleon Grill lid is not actually paint. The finish on the lid and hood is stainless steel and will not peel. The peeling is caused by hardened grease, which dries into paint-like shards that flake off. Regular cleaning will prevent this.
What to do if my Napoleon MIRAGE 485 has low heat or low flame?
If your Napoleon Grill has low heat or a low flame when the valve is turned to high, it could be due to several reasons. If using propane, ensure you are following the correct lighting procedure, with all gas grill valves in the off position when the tank valve is turned on, and turn the tank on slowly to allow pressure to equalize. If using natural gas, the supply line might be undersized, so the pipe must be sized according to installation code. For both propane and natural gas, improper preheating could be the cause. Pre-heat the grill with both main burners on high for 10 to 15 minutes.
