IGNITION SYSTEM OPERATIONS
The igniter supplies a spark to the igniter electrode
assembly. Whether you are performing routine
maintenance or a troubleshooting check on the ignition
system, read the following to keep your ignition system
working properly.
m WARNING: All gas controls and supply
valves should be in the OFF position.
If the igniter fails to ignite your Q grill, you will need to
pinpoint where the problem is occurring: with the gas flow
or with the ignition system. Begin by attempting to match
light your burner. Refer to "BURNER IGNITION—Lighting
with a Match." If match lighting is successful, the problem
lies in the ignition system.
MAINTAINING THE ELECTRONIC IGNITION
SYSTEM
•
Verify that the AAA battery (alkaline only) is in good
condition and is installed correctly (1). Some batteries
have a plastic protective wrap around them. This plastic
must be removed before installing battery. Do not
confuse this plastic with the battery label.
•
Make sure that both igniter wires are properly attached
to the igniter module. Black wire to black terminal (2),
white wire to white terminal (3).
•
Make sure the electronic igniter button is working by
listening for clicking and looking for sparks at burner.
If the electronic ignition system still fails to ignite, contact
the Customer Service Representative in your area using
the contact information on our web site. Log onto www.
