Problem: Misalignment of Ignitor on Burner
Solution: Check for proper position of electrode tip. The tip of the electrode should be pointing forward
towards the front of the burner and should be free of grease to allow proper sparking. The
ignition wire should be connected firmly to the valve ignition device and electrode. Replace the
ignition wire if it is frayed or cracked. With gas supply closed and all control knobs set to the off
position, check each position ignitor individually for presence of spark at electrode. In turn, push
each knob in fully and rotate about 1/4 turn to the left (counter-clockwise) until you hear a loud
click. The trigger hitting the strike block should produce a blue spark at the electrode tip. Return
control knob to the off position before checking the next ignitor.
While the grill is still hot, you must wait for a minimum of five minutes before commencing
re-ignition (this allows accumulated gas fumes to clear). If all checks/ corrections have been made
and gas grill fails to operate properly, contact your local Cal Flame dealer.
Problem: Yellow Flame
Solution: Once the entire burner is operating, check the flame color to be sure that flame color is mostly
blue. Some yellow at the tips may be present due to impurities in the fuel.
If the flame is golden or yellow in color, the reason could be seasoning salts, oil film, or other
foreign matter on the burner.
Problem: Flashback
Solution: When fire occurs in and around the burner tubes, immediately turn off gas at its source and turn
the control knob(s) clockwise to the ‘OFF’ position. Wait until the grill has cooled off and then
clean the burner tubes and burners as described on page of this manual.
