CARE AND MAINTENANCE

To ensure safe operation of your grill, the area of cooking should always be kept free of combustible
materials of any type, such as gasoline or other flammable vapors or liquids.
External Grill Parts - These are stainless steel. These can be cleaned easily with warm soapy water
or any stainless steel cleaner.
Cooking Grid and Grease Tray – The cooking grid is made of stainless steel. The cooking grid
should be brushed with a steel brush immediately after cooking while the grill is still warm. The
grease tray is also stainless steel and can be cleaned with a flat scraper such as a putty knife.
CAUTION
The grease tray must be kept clean and free of heavy buildup for the grill to perform properly and to
eliminate flare-ups.
Grill Main Burners - Extreme care should be taken when removing a burner. It must be correctly
centered on the orifice before any attempt is made to relight the grill. Frequency of cleaning will
depend on how often you use the grill.
• F ailure to properly place the burner over the orifice could cause a fire to occur behind and beneath
the valve panel, thereby damaging the grill and making it unsafe to operate.
• B efore cleaning, make sure the gas supply and control knobs are in the "OFF" position and the
burners have cooled.
To remove the main burners for cleaning:
1. Locate the burner screw at the rear of the firebox.
2. R emove the screw and lift the burner out of the firebox.
To clean the grill burners:
1. Clean the exterior of the burner with a wire brush. Use a metal scraper for stubborn stains or debris.
2. Clear clogged ports with a straightened paper clip. Never use a wooden toothpick as it may break
off and clog the port.
3. Check and clean burners/venturi tubes for insects and insect nests. A clogged tube can lead to a
fire beneath and behind the main control panel.
To reinstall the main burners:
1. Insert the burner over the main burner gas valve.
2. M ake sure the orifice spud is inside the burner venturi as shown.
3. A lign the burner screw hole with the firebox hole, insert screw and
