Why won’t my side burner ignite?

  • Check to see if the quick-connect is properly attached. (Limited to certain models only.)
  • If there is not a quick-connect, check for tape at the connection that was left from the original packaging. Remove the tape and reconnect.
  • Check orifices for blockage. If blockage is apparent, clear it with a pin or needle.
  • WARNING: If the burner does not ignite after 4-5 seconds, turn the burner knob to the off position and wait five (5) minutes for the gas to dissipate, before trying to ignite the burner again.
