Question:

Can I 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 one type of gas 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 inside the left door of the cabinet.

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.

Question:

My electronic ignition is not working.

Answer:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

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 ignition 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.

If you hear a clicking sound, then:

1.Inspect the electrodes to be sure they are not coated with grease and dirt. Clean with

rubbing alcohol.

2.Inspect the distance from the electrode to

the

burner.

 

It should

be 1/8 to 1/4 inch

from

the

main

burner

and 1/8 to 3/16 inch

from

the

side

burner.

 

Question:

Sometimes z 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.

5.Reconnect the gas regulator to the LP tank.

6. Follow the burner lighting procedures

and light the burner farthest from the LP tank.
