CARE AND MAINTENANCE
However, there are steps you must take to prevent cracking of the burner's ceramic surfaces,
which will cause the burners to malfunction. The following are the most common causes of
cracks and the steps you must take to avoid them. Damage caused by failure to follow these
steps is not covered by your grill warranty.
IMPACT WITH HARD OBJECTS - Never allow hard objects to strike the ceramic. You should
take particular care when inserting or removing cooking grids and accessories into or from the
grill. If objects such as these fall onto ceramic, it is likely to crack the ceramic.
IMPAIRED VENTILATION OF HOT AIR FROM GRILL - In order for the burners to function
properly, hot air created by the burners must have a way to escape. The burners may become
deprived of oxygen, causing them to backfire, especially if the burner output is set at HIGH. If
this occurs repeatedly, the burners may crack. This is the reason your grill was designed with
ventilation louvers. These design features give the hot air an escape route. Accordingly, never
operate your grill with very little or no open space at the cooking surface (the cooking grids
provide sufficient space). Also, never cover the ventilation louvers with foil or other materials
that prevent air flow. Specifically, do not cover the entire surface with foil, a large pan, etc.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
- Keep outdoor cooking gas appliance area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline
and other flammable vapors and liquids.
- Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
- Keep the ventilation openings of the cylinder enclosure free and clear from debris.
- Visually check the burners.
GENERAL CLEANING
IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and the grill is cool. Always follow
label instructions on cleaning products.
For routine cleaning, wash with soap and water using a soft cloth or sponge. Rinse with clean
water and dry at once with a soft, lint-free cloth to avoid spots and streaks.
To avoid scratching the surface, do not use steel wool to clean the grill.
Use a vinyl grill cover to protect finish from weather.
DRIP TRAY
The drip tray should be cleaned periodically to prevent heavy buildup of debris.
NOTE: Allow the drip tray to cool before attempting to clean.
