Troubleshooting
Grill will not ignite.
Ensure the propane tank is connected properly and the valve is open. Check that the SureFire® ignition button is being pressed firmly. Verify the igniter module is properly seated.
Uneven cooking temperatures.
Ensure the grill is level. Check for any obstructions in the gas burners. Clean the cooking grates and ensure even heat distribution is being maintained by the TRU-Infrared™ system.
Flare-ups still occurring.
While TRU-Infrared™ minimizes flare-ups, excessive fat can still cause them. Trim excess fat from meats and ensure food is not placed directly over grease drippings.
Side burner not lighting.
Check the gas supply to the side burner. Ensure the burner ports are clear of debris. Confirm the igniter for the side burner is functioning.
