Solution
Clean JETFIRE
TM
outlet with a soft bristle brush.
Clean or replace as required.
Replace with premium heavy- duty battery.
Check electrode wire is firmly pushed onto the terminal on the
back of the igniter. Check the lead wires from the module to the
ignition switch (if equipped) are firmly pushed onto their respective
terminals.
Close air shutter according to "Maintenance Instructions"-
Combustion Air Adjustment section in this Owner's Manual.
IMPORTANT! This must be done by a qualified gas installer.
Solution
This isn't a defect. It's caused by internal vibrations in the
regulator and doesn't affect the performance or safety of the grill.
Humming regulators WILL NOT be replaced.
Open cylinder valve slowly
Ensure sear plates are installed with holes towards the front, and
the slots on the bottom. See Assembly Instructions Guide.
Preheat grill with all main burners on high for 10 to 15 minutes.
Clean sear plates and drip pan regularly. Do not line pan with
aluminum foil. Refer to "Cleaning Instructions".
