TROUBLESHOOTING (Cont’d)
Persistent grease
fire
Unable to fill
LP tank
Humming or
whistling from
the regulator
Grease trapped around
burner system
Some dealers have older fill
nozzles with worn threads.
Outside temperature, humidi-
ty, barometric pressure, and
the gas level within the tank
may cause the rubber
diaphragm inside the regula-
tor to vibrate, making a hum-
ming or whistling sound.
Turn control knobs “off” and turn handle of LP cylinder clockwise
until it stops. Open hood carefully and let fire burn out. After the
grill cools, remove and clean all parts.
The worn nozzles don’t have enough “bite” to engage the valve. Try
another licensed LP dealer.
Although this sound may be alarming, this is NOT dangerous as
long as it is not accompanied by the smell of gas. Simply adjust the
burner settings and usually the sound will subside. If the humming
sound persists, a change in atmospheric conditions will eventually
stop the vibration. Should you smell gas, do not use the grill and
call Customer Service at 1-800-251-7558
If your problem is not resolved from the information above, please call Customer Service at 1-800-251-7558.
