Solution
Ensure lighting procedure is followed carefully. All gas valves must
be in the OFF position when the tank valve is turned on. Turn tank
on slowly to allow pressure to equalize. See Operation – Lighting
Instructions
Pipe must be sized according to installation code.
Allow burner to cool and inspect very closely for cracks. Contact
your authorized Napoleon dealer to order replacement burner
assembly if any cracks are found.
Preheat grill with both main burners on high for 10 to 15 minutes.
Thoroughly clean nest or webs out of your burner orifice by
removing it and following instructions in this manual.
See "INSECT SCREEN AND BURNER PORT" on page 16.
Open or close air shutter slightly according to the instructions on
this manual. See "ADJUSTING AIR SHUTTER" on page 17.
IMPORTANT! This must be done by a qualified gas installer.
Check gas level in propane cylinder.
Reposition supply hose as necessary.

Instructions.
Solution
This isn't a defect. It's caused by internal vibrations in the regulator
and doesn't affect the performance or safety of the gas grill.
Humming regulators WILL NOT be replaced.
Open cylinder valve slowly
Ensure sear plates are installed with holes towards the front, and
the slots on the bottom. See Assembly Instructions Guide.
Preheat grill with both main burners on high for 10 to 15 minutes.
Clean sear plates and drip pan regularly. Do not line pan with
aluminum foil. Refer to Cleaning Instructions.
Solution
This is not a defect. The finish on the lid and hood is porcelain,
and will not peel. The peeling is caused by hardened grease, which
dries into paint-like shards, that flake off. Regular cleaning will
prevent this. See cleaning instructions.
