Question:
Can I convert my grill from one fuel type to another in
other words from LPG to NG or vice versa?
Answer:
No, your
gas grill is manufactured
to exact specifications
and is certified
for LPG (Liquid
Propane
Gas) or NG
(Natural
Gas) use only. For your
safety,
conversion
kits
are not available,
nor will we sell or otherwise
provide
parts or information
to be used to convert
your grill. Any
attempt
to convert
your grill is dangerous
and will void
your warranty.
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 will be located
on the left or
right
side
bowl panel
underneath
the side shelf,
underneath
the right
side of the control
panel,
outside
left or right of control
panel or on the back of the grill
cabinet.
Question:
My grill will not light properly. Why?
Answer:
Always
light the main
Burner
farthest
from the fuel
source
first. This
will draw
gas
across
the manifold
helping
prevent
air pockets
which
obstruct
gas flow
and
prevent
proper
grill lighting.
Also
try this procedure:
1. Turn gas off at source
and turn Control
Knobs
OFF.
Wait at least 5 minutes
for gas to clear, then retry.
2. If your grill still fails to light, check
gas supply
and
connections.
3. Repeat
lighting
procedure.
If your grill still fails to operate,
turn the gas off at
source,
turn the Control
Knobs to OFF and refer to the
Troubleshooting
Section
for more tips, or call the Grill
information
Center.
Question:
If my ignitor or battery
is not working
how can I light
my grill manually?
And
- Why would
I need the silver
lighting
stick that hangs
from
the side of my grill?
Answer:
If your
ignition
fails to work or your battery
needs
replacing,
you can light your
grill through
the Lighting
Hole on the side of the grill bowl using
the Manual
Lighting
Stick that hangs
from the side of your grill. The
Lighting
Stick is designed
to hold a paper
match
and
allows
you to safely insert
a match
through
the Lighting
Hole without
getting
close
to the Burner.
Never
remove
the Cooking
Grids or Heat Diffuser
and attempt
to
light the grill from above.
To light your
gas grill
manually,
insert a paper
match
into the Manual
Lighting
Stick and follow
steps 1 through
6 of the Basic
Lighting
Procedures.
Then,
light the match
and place it
through
the Lighting
Hole on the right
side of the
grill (location
of hole varies
by grill model).
Turn
the
nearest
main
Burner
Control
Knob
to the High setting
to release
gas.
The
Burner
should
light immediately.
Question:
Sometimes I hear a humming sound coming from my
regulator. What causes this?And-
My grill has a low
flame and sometimes will not light. Why?
Answer:
The humming
sound
is gas flowing through
the regulator.
A low volume
of sound
is normal
and will not interfere
with the operation
of your grill. Loud or excessive
regulator
humming
and/or
low flow and intermittent
lighting
may
be caused
by the regulator's
excess
gas
flow
device.
Opening
the tank valve all the way or too quickly
is what
triggers
the regulator's
safety device
to restrict
gas flow,
preventing
excess gas flow to your grill. Lighting
the main
Burner
farthest
from the fuel source
every time will help
eliminate
air
pockets
in the
manifold.
Note:
This
procedure
should
be done
every
time
a new
LP Gas
tank
is connected
to your
grill.
[]

to the OFF position.
[]

grill Lid (or Side Burner
Lid if you are lighting
the Side Burner).
[]
Turn
the tank valve slowly
1/4of one turn.
[]
Light
middle
main
Burner

from fuel
source.
[]

the tank valve slowly one more _X of one turn
for ½ of one complete
turn.
[]
Continue
to light Burners
moving
towards
the tank.
[]
Do not turn tank valve more than
½ of one turn.
