Troubleshooting
BBQ not igniting
Ensure the gas cylinder is connected and the valve is open. Check the integral spark ignition battery. Make sure burner holes are not blocked and that the igniter is properly positioned near the gas flow.
Uneven heat distribution
Check that the vapour bars are correctly positioned above the burners. Ensure the grill grates are level. Clean any debris from burner ports and the drip tray.
Side burner not working
Verify the gas supply is reaching the side burner. Check if its control knob is fully open and that the igniter for the side burner is functioning correctly.
Excessive flare-ups
Reduce heat if possible, or move food to a cooler section of the grill. Ensure the drip tray is clean and not overflowing. Trim fat from meats before grilling.
Lid difficult to open/close
Check for any obstructions around the hood hinges or frame. Ensure the BBQ is on a level surface. The double-skin hood may require a gentle, even motion.
