GAS FLOW
SYMPTOM
•
Grill does not reach desired temperature or heats unevenly.
•
One or more of the burners fail to ignite.
•
Flame is low when burner is on high position.
•
Flames do not run the whole length of the burner.
•
Burner flame pattern is erratic.
CAUSE SOLUTION
The “flow limiting device” has been activated.
This safety feature built into the regulator restricts
the gas flow in the event of a gas leak. You can
inadvertently activate this safety feature without
having a gas leak. This typically occurs when you
turn on the gas at the LP tank and one or more of the
control knobs are not in the off position. It may also
occur if you turn on the LP tank too quickly.
Reset the “flow limiting device” by closing the LP
tank valve and turning all the burner control knobs
to the off position. Wait five minutes to allow
accumulated gas to dissipate, then ignite the grill
again following the instructions in the “Operation”
section.
The LP tank is low or empty. Refill LP tank.
Fuel hose is bent or kinked. Straighten fuel hose.
Burner ports are dirty.
Clean burner ports. Refer to “Cleaning the
Burner Ports.”
SYMPTOM
•
Gas is smelled in conjunction with burner flames that appear yellow and lazy.
CAUSE SOLUTION
Spider screens on the burners are obstructed. Clean spider screens. Refer to “Cleaning the Spider
Screens” in the Product Care section. Also refer to
the illustrations and information in this section about
proper flame pattern and spider screens.
SYMPTOM

CAUSE SOLUTION
