Not enough heat
Excessive heat and/or fla e-ups
Heat not distributed evenly over
grill surface
Yellow flames
Incomplete flame
Flash-backs (flames outside
venturis/at control knobs)
Flames higher than edge of
bowl
Pressure regulator hums
Burner whistles when set to
LOW
Impossible to light burner
(using either igniter or match)
lmpossible to light burner with
igniter
No sparks nor sound when
pressing igniter
Only sound (no sparks) when
pressing igniter
Sparks present that do not
originate from burners
Sparks present, but not on all
electrodes and/or not powerful
enough
Probable cause(s)
• Gas supply not open
• Venturis not placed over openings of gas valves
• Burner openings blocked
• Gas cylinder (almost) empty
• Pressure regulator not connected correctly to
cylinder and/or hose
• Food too fatty
• Fat drain hole blocked, fat in bowl and/or fat on
burners
• Temperature too high
Some heat diffe ences are norrnal, see "1.7 Making
optima! use of the heat" and "10.6 Taking advantage
of the heat zones". Probable cause(s) for big heat
diffe ences:
• Appliance not preheated
• Burners or venturis blocked
• Salt on burners
• Appliance connected to butane
• Burner blocked, pierced or rusted
• Burners or venturis blocked
• Lots of wind
• Gas cylinder (almost) empty
• Fat in bowl or on burners
• Hot weather
• New (full) gas cylinder
• Gas injector, venturi and/or burner dirty
• Burner or venturi blocked
• No gas supply
• No battery installed or battery not installed
correctly
• Middle burner not lit firs
• lgniter wiring not mounted correctly
• Electrode damaged
• Faulty ground
• Faulty igniter
• No battery installed or battery not installed
correctly
• Empty battery
• lgniter button not assembled correctly
• Faulty spark generator
• Faulty ground
• Burner and electrode too far apart
• Faulty wiring
• Faulty ground
• Low battery
• Wet or broken electrodes
Solution(s)

• Open gas supply and press safety knob on
pressure regulator (not present on all regulators)
• (Re)install battery, with terminals positioned
correctly
• Light the middle burner firs
• Check and re-assemble all igniter connections
• Replace electrode
