What to do if Napoleon Grill infrared burner flashes back?
- A
  Alexander KimSep 2, 2025
  If the infrared burner on your Napoleon grill flashes back (makes a loud 'whoosh' sound, followed by a blow-torch type sound and grows dim), take these steps: * Turn the burner off and let it cool for at least two minutes. Then, relight it and burn it on high for at least five minutes, or until the ceramic tiles are evenly glowing red. * Make sure that objects or accessories cover no more than 75% of the grill surface. * Inspect the ceramic tiles for cracks after the burner has cooled. If you find any cracks, contact your authorized Napoleon dealer to order a replacement burner assembly.

  If the burners on your Napoleon grill are burning with a yellow flame and there's a smell of gas, it could be due to a spider web or other debris, or an improperly adjusted air shutter. Thoroughly clean the burner by removing it. A qualified gas installer must open the air shutter slightly according to combustion air adjustment instructions.

  If the burner output on the 'high' setting is too low on your Napoleon grill, and you notice a rumbling noise and fluttering blue flame at the burner surface, it could be due to: * Lack of gas: Check the gas level in your propane cylinder. * Pinched supply hose: Reposition the supply hose if it's pinched. * Dirty or clogged orifice: Clean the burner orifice. * Obstruction in venturi tube: Clean out the venturi tube. * Improper lighting procedure: Ensure you follow the lighting procedure carefully. All gas grill valves must be in the off position when turning on the tank valve. Turn the tank on slowly to allow pressure to equalize.

  Excessive flare-ups and uneven heat in your Napoleon grill can be due to a few reasons: * Incorrectly installed sear plates: Make sure the sear plates are installed with the holes facing the front and the slots on the bottom. * Improper preheating: Preheat the grill with both main burners on high for 10 to 15 minutes. * Excessive grease and ash: Regularly clean the sear plates and drip pan. Do not line the drip pan with aluminum foil.

Why is my Napoleon Prestige 308 Grill burner not lighting with the igniter?
- E
  Elizabeth White MDAug 26, 2025
  If your Napoleon Grill burner won't light with the igniter but lights with a match, the cause may be a dead or incorrectly installed battery. Replace it with a heavy-duty 'AAA' battery, installing it with the positive terminal up. Also, check that the electrode wire is firmly pushed onto the terminal on the back of the igniter. Ensure you are using the correct replacement igniter (one spark systems must use a one spark igniter). Make sure that the collector box is tight, and the gap between the electrode end and the collector box is between 1/8 - 3/16", adjusting by bending the box if needed. Lifting flames on burner can also be the reason.

  If the burner on your Napoleon Grill won't light with the igniter but lights with a match, first replace the battery with a heavy-duty 'AAA' battery, ensuring the positive terminal is up. Check that the electrode wire is firmly attached to the igniter terminal. If you have a one-spark system, use a one-spark igniter. Make sure the collector box is tight and the gap between the electrode and collector box is between 1/8 - 3/16", adjusting by bending the box if needed. Also, slightly close the air shutter.
