Problem
Burners will not cross
EN
light each other.
"Paint" appears to be
peeling inside lid or hood.
Burner output on "high"
setting is too low.
(Rumbling noise and
fluttering blue flame at
burner surface.)
Infrared burner (if
equipped) flashes back
(during operation the
burner abruptly makes
a loud "whoosh" sound,
followed by a continuous
blow-torch type sound
and grows dim.)

Possible Causes
Dirty or corroded cross light brackets.
Grease build-up on inside surfaces.
Lack of gas.
Supply hose is pinched.
Dirty or clogged orifice.
Spider webs or other matter in venturi
tube.
Propane regulator in "low flow" state.
Ceramic tiles overloaded with grease
drippings and build-up. Ports are
clogged.
Burner overheated due to inadequate
ventilation (too much grill surface
covered by griddle or pan.)
Cracked ceramic tile.
Leaking gasket surrounding the ceramic
tile, or a weld failure in the burner
housing.
Solution
Clean or replace as required.
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.
Check gas level in propane cylinder.
Reposition supply hose as necessary.
Clean burner orifice.
Clean out venturi tube.
Ensure lighting procedure is followed
carefully. All gas grill valves must be in the
off position when the tank valve is turned
on. Turn tank on slowly to allow pressure to
equalize. See lighting instructions.
Turn burner off and allow to cool for at least
two minutes. Relight burner and burn on
high for at least five minutes or until the
ceramic tiles are evenly glowing red.
Ensure that no more than 75% of the grill
surface is covered by objects or accessories.
Turn burner off and allow to cool for at least
two minutes, then relight.
Allow burner to cool and inspect very closely
for cracks. If any cracks are found, contact
your authorized Napoleon dealer to order a
replacement burner assembly.
