Question:

Can 1 convert my gas grill from one fuel

type to another, such as LP to NG (natural gas) or vice versa?

Answer:

No, your gas grill is manufactured to specific standards developed by CSA and ANSI for your safety and is certified for LPG (Liquid Propane Gas) use only.

Question:

Are the serial and model numbers of my

grill listed somewhere for reference? Answer:

The serial and model numbers are listed on a silver CSA label placed on the grill. Depending on the grill model, the silver CSA label generally will be located on the back panel of the cart.

Question:

My grill will not light properly, Why?

Answer:

Check these possibilities:

1.The gas supply is turned off at the LP tank. Turn on the gas at the LP tank.

2.Your LP tank is out of propane.

3.The regulator is not properly seated in the tank valve. Remove and reattach. Hand

tighten only.

4.Crimped fuel supply hose. Inspect and straighten.

5.Regulator failure or damaged hose assembly. Inspect and order a replacement part. Do not use your grill if you find a damaged hose assembly.

6.Gas not getting to the burners. Inspect the burners under the control panel to be sure they are aligned with the valve orifices.

7.Blockage in the gas system. Inspect burners and valve orifices for blockages, such as spider webs, insects, etc. Clean as necessary.

Listen to hear the electronic igniter clicking. If not, check these possibilities:

1.Replace the AA battery. Ensure the "+" end is facing up and out.

2.Ensure the battery is centered and fits into the electronic igniter button properly.

3.Be sure the wires are all attached to the electronic ignition assembly behind the control panel and the individual electrodes.

4.Inspect the electrodes to be sure they are not coated with grease or dirt. If so, clean with rubbing alcohol.

are not coated with grease and dirt. Clean with rubbing alcohol.

2.Inspect the distancefrom the electrode to the burner. Itshould be 118 to 114 inch from the main burner and 118 to 3116 inch from the side burner.

Question:

Sometimes I hear a humming sound

coming from my regulator. What causes this?

Answer:

The humming sound is gas flowing through the regulator. This is more likely

to occur in periods of high gas flow. A low volume of sound is normal and will not

interfere with the operation of your grill.

Question:

My grill has a low flame on some burners, or some burners will not

light at all, What can cause this? Answer

This can be caused by the flow limiting device, which is generally triggered by a

sudden change in pressure. Opening the tank valve too fast or shutting the burners off using the tank valve can cause this. To reset:

1.Close the LP tank valve and disconnect the regulator assembly from the tank.

2.Let the LP tank sit for 10 minutes.

3.Open all burner control knobs,

including the side burner, to "HI" at the same time.

4.Close all burner control knobs.

S. Reconnect the gas regulator to

the LP tank.

6.Follow the burner lighting procedures and lightthe burner farthestfrom the LP tank.

Question:

Where do I use my grill for safer

operation and better performance?

Answer:

Strong winds and low temperatures can

affect the heating and performance of your gas grill so factor in these elements when positioning your grill outdoors for cooking.

Use your grill at least 2 feet away from any wall or surface.
