SMELL OF GAS WHILE COOKING
IF YOU SMELL GAS WHILE THE GRILL IS OPERATING,
IMMEDIATELY TURN OFF ALL BURNERS AND SHUT OFF
THE MAIN FUEL SUPPLY.
• Perform a leak test (See INDEX: “Leak Test Procedure” for
further details.)
• Check for blockages (See INDEX: “Clean the Brass
Burner” for further details.)
YELLOW FLAMES
A yellow fl ame on the main burners indicates a lack of air.
But, if the air around the grill is dusty or if heavy grease is
present, some orange tips on the burner fl ame are normal.
• Adjust The Air Shutter
To adjust for insu cient air, adjust the air shutter. (See
INDEX: “Air Shutter Adjustment” for further details.)
LOW OR INSUFFICIENT HEAT
No part of the grill should ever be lined with aluminum foil.
Doing so will interfere with airfl ow and can cause a low heat
condition.
Ensure that you’ve preheated the main burners for at least
10 to 15 minutes with the hood closed and the ProSear™
burner for 3 minutes.
Proper leveling during installation is critical. A grill that
is out of level will cause erratic burner combustion and
ine cient, uneven heating. A carpenter’s spirit level
should be used to level the grill both front-to-back and
side-to-side.
If the low heat problem persists:
• Check the gas supply line sizing requirements.
• Check the gas supply line for kinks or damage.
REPLACE any damaged supply lines.
• Check the Regulator
Make sure that the regulator & hose assembly is the one
designed for and supplied with your grill and that it is
correctly set up for the type of fuel you are using. (See
INDEX: “Regulator Conversion” for further details.)
The hose and regulator provided must be used if your grill
is set-up for an LP Gas Cylinder. Ensure the LP hose is not
behind the grill.
Check that there is no physical pressure being applied to
the regulator attached to the back of the grill. The regulator
contains a fl exible diaphragm and should not be allowed to
touch the grill body or its surroundings.
• Check for Obstructions
Ensure that the burners and drip tray are clean and free from
obstructions.
LP (Propane) units:
• Is the cylinder almost empty?
Almost-empty cylinders may not have su cient pressure to
run the burners at high heat.
• Have the line pressure checked by a qualifi ed technician
(See INDEX: “Gas Requirements” for further details.)
• Flow Limiting Device
Improper lighting procedures may have activated the LP
cylinder’s fl ow control device, reducing the heat output.
To reset the fl ow control:
• Shut o all burner controls and close the LP cylinder valve.
• Wait 30 seconds and, very slowly, reopen the cylinder
valve.
• Wait a few seconds and relite a burner.
Bulk LP cylinder users:
Bulk LP cylinder lines must be properly regulated.
Ensure that you are using a 4/11 appliance regulator supplied
by Lynx and converted to LP gas. Also ensure that you do
not have more than one regulator in line.
Natural Gas units:
• Supply Line
Ensure that the supply line is at least 3/4” inside diameter or
1” outside diameter.
• Check line pressure
Natural gas inlet pressure should be at least 5” W.C. and
manifold pressure not less than 4” W.C. under full load (with
all burners on.)
• Check burners for blockages.
• Check fl ame characteristics. (See INDEX: “Flame, Correct
Size” )
