Troubleshooting
Unit will not ignite
Ensure the gas cylinder is connected securely and the valve is open. Check that the piezo igniter is functioning; if not, manual ignition with a long lighter may be necessary. Ensure the control knob is turned to the 'start' or 'high' position when igniting.
Flame is too low or uneven
Check gas cylinder pressure; ensure it is not empty. Verify that the gas hose and regulator are appropriate for the unit and cylinder. Clean any potential blockages in the burner assembly or gas ports.
Food is sticking to the BBQ grid or chef pan
Ensure the cooking surfaces are properly preheated before adding food. Lightly oil the cooking surface before placing food. For the chef pan, ensure adequate cooking oil or fat is used.
Lid handle feels loose
Check the screws securing the handle and tighten them as necessary. Ensure the handle is aligned correctly before tightening.

Store the unit in the provided bag in a dry place to prevent corrosion.
