General Grill Cleaning

•Do not mistake brown or black accumulation of grease and smoke for paint. Interiors of gas grills are not painted at the factory (and should never be painted). Apply a strong solution of detergent and water or use a grill cleaner with scrub brush on insides of grill lid and bottom. Rinse and allow to completely air dry. Do not apply a caustic grill/oven cleaner to painted surfaces.

• Plastic parts: Wash with warm soapy water and wipe dry.  Do not use citrisol, abrasive cleaners, degreasers or a

concentrated grill cleaner on plastic parts. Damage to and failure of parts can result.

•Porcelain surfaces: Because of glass-like composition, most residue can be wiped away with baking soda/water solution or specially formulated cleaner. Use nonabrasive scouring powder for stubborn stains.

•Painted surfaces: Wash with mild detergent or nonabrasive cleaner and warm soapy water. Wipe dry with a soft nonabrasive cloth.

•Stainless steel surfaces: To maintain your grill’s high quality appearance, wash with mild detergent and warm soapy water and wipe dry with a soft cloth after each use. Baked-on grease deposits may require the use of an abrasive plastic cleaning pad. Use only in direction of brushed finish to avoid damage. Do not use abrasive pad on areas with graphics.

• Cooking surfaces: If a bristle brush is used to clean any of

the grill cooking surfaces, ensure no loose bristles remain on cooking surfaces prior to grilling. It is not recommended to clean cooking surfaces while grill is hot.

CAUTION

SPIDER ALERT!

SPIDER AND WEBS

INSIDE BURNER TUBE

If you notice that your grill is getting hard to light or that the flame isn’t as strong as it should be, take the time to check and clean the venturi’s.

CONTROL PANEL

VALVE

SPIDER WEBS

INSIDE VENTURI

In some areas of the country, spiders or small insects have been known to create “flashback” problems. The spiders spin webs, build nests and lay eggs in the grill’s venturi tube(s) obstructing the flow of gas to the burner. The backed-up gas can ignite in the venturi behind the control panel. This is known as a flashback and it can damage your grill and even cause injury.

To prevent flashbacks and ensure good performance the burner and venturi assembly should be removed from the grill and cleaned before use whenever the grill has been idle for an extended period.

Storing Your Grill

•Clean cooking grates.

•Store in dry location.

•When LP cylinder is connected to grill, store outdoors in a wellventilated space and out of reach of children.

•Cover grill if stored outdoors. Choose from a variety of grill covers offered by manufacturer.

•Store grill indoors ONLY if LP cylinder is turned off and disconnected, removed from grill and stored outdoors.

•When removing grill from storage, follow “Cleaning the Burner Assembly” instructions before starting grill.

Cleaning the Burner Assembly

Follow these instructions to clean and/or replace parts of burner assembly or if you have trouble igniting grill.

1. Turn gas OFF at control knobs and LP cylinder.

2. Remove cooking grates and flame tamers.

3. Remove screws and carryover tubes from rear of burners.

4. Remove screw and washers to disengage burner from bracket on firebox.

5. Remove screws to detach electrode from burner. Electrode should remain in firebox.

6. Carefully lift each burner up and away from valve openings.

We suggest three ways to clean the burner tubes. Use the one easiest for you.

(A) Bend a stiff wire (a light weight coat hanger works well)

into a small hook. Run the hook through each burner tube several times.

(B) Use a narrow bottle brush with a flexible handle (do not

use a brass wire brush), run the brush through each burner tube several times.

the burner tube and out the burner ports. Check each port to make sure air comes out each hole.

7. Wire brush entire outer surface of burner to remove food residue and dirt.

8. Clean any blocked ports with a stiff wire such as an open paper clip.

9. Check burner for damage, due to normal wear and corrosion some holes may become enlarged. If any large cracks or holes are found replace burner.
