2.1 General
Safety of the user and bystanders is one of the main concerns in designing and developing a new product. Designers and manufacturers build in as many safety features as possible. However, every year many accidents occur which could have been avoided by a few seconds of thought and a more careful approach to handling the appliance.
Most accidents are caused by failure to observe basic safety rules or precautions. An accident can often be avoided by recognizing potentially hazardous situations before an accident occurs. As you assemble, use, or maintain the appliance, you must be alert to potential hazards.

15. Troubleshooting

Description
Burner lights but the flame remains very small and will not increase.

Possible Cause
Overfilling Prevention Device (OPD) on LP cylinder has been activated because valve was opened too quickly.

Poor gas flow due to regulator problems.

Blockage in burner tube.
Burner head is clogged with debris, or food particles.
Faulty or almost empty LP cylinder.
Kinked or damaged pressure regulator hose.
Regulator contains a thermal sensor which automatically shuts off the flow of gas if the hose reaches temperatures between 240 to 300° F (115 to 150° C).

Regulator valve’s flow limiting device is stuck in closed position because valve detected a sudden change in pressure, limiting the amount of propane. Often caused by opening shutoff valve too quickly.

Burner will not light. LP cylinder valve is closed or tank is empty.

Shutoff valve is closed.

Blockage in burner from insects, spider webs, dirt dauber or wasp nests, and/or debris.

Burner will not light and burner tube is not blocked.

Air to gas mixture is too high. Insufficient gas flow.
