Troubleshooting
BBQ will not ignite
Ensure the gas bottle is connected and the valve is open. Check that the battery for the electronic ignition is correctly inserted and functional. Verify that the burner tubes are clear of debris.
Uneven heat distribution
Ensure the BBQ is level. Check for blockages in the burner ports. Clean the cooking grids and ensure they are seated correctly. If using multiple heat zones, understand the burner output differences.
Grease buildup and flare-ups
Empty and clean the grease collector regularly. Ensure food is not placed too close to the direct flame. Trim excess fat from meats before grilling. Use lower heat settings when possible.
Side burner not producing enough heat
Check the gas flow to the side burner. Ensure the burner ports are clean and unobstructed. The side burner has a lower kW output by design compared to the main burners.
