The Proper Ignition Sequence
* Side notes: about the shutdown procedure. The following ignition procedures are written assuming you are turning the burners off 1st, then the Propane Tank. Therefore, each sequence starts with everything in the off position. While it is acceptable to turn the burners off and leave the Propane Tank on, we strongly recommend you turn the Tank off also.
Improper Ignition Sequence. *** Everything starting from off/closed position.
1. Turn on burners. 2. Turn on Propane. 3. Ignite.
Proper Ignition Sequence
*** Everything must be off to start – the propane tank and burners. ***
1. Turn on your propane tank.
2. Now, you can turn the burners on.
3. Ignite.
Basically, the key here is to be sure to have your burners off before you turn on the Propane. This is because if you turn the burners on first the gas will not be pressurized in the hose causing the Bypass to trigger. To the system, it appears there is a gas leak; hence, the bypass triggers. (Even though there is no leak; because the back pressure is low the system will think there is.)
* When using the improper sequence, the regulator will trip because by turning the burners on 1st, you empty the lines of any propane which causes the low line pressure.
SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE CALLED US THINKING THEIR GRILL IS NOT WORKING BECAUSE OF THIS. TURNING YOUR GRILL ON CORRECTRLY WILL SAVE YOU A CALL OUT FEE. SAVE YOUR MONEY FOR SOME GOOD MEATS INSTEAD 😉
If you do trip the regulator , go on to the next page so you can learn how to reset it yourself
