National gas Code or CAN/CGA-B149.2, Propane Gas Code..
If an external electrical source is utilized, this gas grill, when installed must be electrically grounded in
accordance with the local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code ,
ANSI/NFPA 70, or the Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1.

Keep electrical cord and the fuel source hose away from any heated areas.
This outdoor gas grill is not intended for use in or on recreational vehicles and or boats.
Operate this gas grill only in areas free of obstructions for combustion and ventilation air.

until the appliance has completely cooled.

CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.

Once the barbecue has been assembled and installed, make sure the gas valves are in the “OFF” position. Turn
gas “ON” at the source. Use a small brush to apply a warm soapy water solution to all gas connections. (use a
half dish soap and half warm water). If a gas leak is present, bubbling will occur. Gas leaks can be repaired by
using an approved pipe thread sealant or approved Teflon tape. The flexible gas hose must be inspected before

each use.

NEVER USE A NAKED FLAME FOR TESTING LEAKS.

LPG GAS CYLINDER.

An approved 20 lb. gas cylinder is required for optimum performance
and convenience.
LPG gas cylinder is not provided with this appliance. When
purchasing a LPG cylinder, make sure the cylinder has a manual shut
off valve. Also ensure that the cylinder has a collar to protect the
manual shut off valve.
LPG gas cylinder must be constructed and marked in accordance

NEVER CONNECT AN UNREGULATED LP GAS CYLINDER TO
YOUR BARBECUE.
DO NOT SUBJECT LP GAS CYLINDERS TO EXCESSIVE HEAT.
WHEN THE APPLIANCE IS NOT USE, THE GAS SUPPLY SYSTEM MUST BE TURNED “OFF” AT THE
SOURCE.

KEEP APPLIANCE AWAY FROM ANY COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS.

VISUALLY INSPECT THE RUBBER GAS HOSE AND CONNECTIONS AND BURNERS ON A REGULAR
BASIS TO INSURE NO DAMAGE OR DETERIORATION IS PRESENT.

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

HOSE ASSEMBLY AND SAFETY:

If the hose shows signs of deterioration or damage, use a soap and water solution and test the entire outer
surface of the hose while under pressure. Replace at the first sign of a leak or if age cracking becomes
apparent. Remember to turn the gas supply off before disconnecting. The hose must remain free of kinks and
sharp bends. Never puncture or put stress on the hose fittings. Replace the hose only with the manufactures
original equipment.

BURNERS:

The location of the burners to the main orifice is vital for safe operation. Check to assure the valve orifices are
inside the burner tubes before using the gas grill. If venturi of the burner is not correctly positioned over the
valve orifices, explosion and or fire may occur when lighting the gas grill. Be careful not to damage the ceramic
spark electrodes.

BURNER CLEANING:

To keep you’re ENVIROGRILL BISTRO working correctly the burners should be checked and cleaned on a regular
basis. To clean the burner tubes first remove the burner tubes from the barbecue. Bend a stiff wire (coat hanger)
and run the hooked end up through each venturi tube and into the burner several times. Turn the burner upside
down and force water from the garden hose into the burner. Observe the water flow from the holes in the burner
to make sure all holes have water coming out. If not, continue to clean the burner by cleaning each individual
obstructed hole. Wire brush the outside of the burner to remove any loose corrosion. Clean any holes with a stiff
wire. If the burner has holes other than the holes from the factory replace the burner with the manufacturers
original part. A clogged burner tube could cause a fire beneath the gas grill.

To remove the burners from the unit, first
remove the cooking grids and the flame
deflectors to access the burners. Undo the
1/4” hex head bolt located on the rear of the
inside liner. Lift the back of the burner up
slightly and remove from the appliance.

Install the burner in the reverse order and
ensure that the burner is placed over the
orifice.

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE AND CARE INSTRUCTIONS

CARE AND CLEANING:

The ENVIROGRILL BISTRO gas barbecue is designed to withstand the high temperatures achieved under normal
operating conditions.
Never scrape or scratch the hot painted surfaces.
Never dose the hot surfaces with water.
If there is any excess fat or grease it is best removed while the barbecue is still warm.

BURNERS:

Periodically inspect the burners blockage or corrosion. These can be cleaned with a small piece of wire and a
wire brush. Ensure that the aeration screw is secure and that it is set properly. Be careful not to damage the
ceramic electrodes

HOSE:

If the hose shows signs of deterioration or damage, use a soap and water solution
to test the entire outer surface of the hose while under pressure checking for
bubbles, (this would indicate a leak in the hose). Replace the hose at the first sign
of a leak or if age cracking becomes apparent. Remember to turn the gas off
before removing the hose.

INJECTORS / MAIN BURNER ORIFICES:

Injectors should be inspected on a regular basis to ensure they are not blocked. Cleaning can be performed on
these injectors by removing the injector from the valve assembly. Using a very small wire or drill bit remove any
obstruction in the orifice (BE CAREFUL NOT TO DAMAGE THE ORIFICE) a small pipe cleaner could also be
used. When installing the injectors an approved TEFLON or pipe thread sealant must be used before the
injector is re-installed.

COOKING SURFACES:

The cooking grates have been porcelain enameled for durability and ease of cleaning. These grates may be
cleaned with a NON abrasive cleaning solution designed for kitchen use.

PORCELAIN ENAMEL CASTINGS:

Periodic cleaning with a dry or slightly damp cloth or soft brush will keep porcelain enamel surfaces looking new.
To clean, use a only a kitchen appliance cleaner or a polish designed for use on porcelain enamel surfaces.
DO NOT USE ABRASIVE CLEANERS ON THE PORCELAIN ENAMEL FINISHES AS THIS WILL
PERMANENTLY SCRATCH THESE SURFACES

DRIP TRAY:

The drip tray is located under the front control panel. This device catches grease and other cooking debris.
Check the grease tray and metal foil container for accumulations after using the Gas Grill and clean as
necessary. Use only a mild abrasive cleaner and a soft cloth to clean the drip tray. Clean the drip tray on a
regular basis or fire could occur. This metal foil container is a 4 x 8 Loaf Pan EZ-Foil container that can be
acquired at any supermarket or hardware store.

STAINLESS STEEL PANELS:

Stainless steel is a very durable material and should last indefinitely with minimal care. Due to the nature of the
brushed surface minor scratches could appear with normal use and handling. These scratches can be removed
with the use of a medium or fine grade SCOTCH BRITE ® PAD or similar polishing pad. Apply even gentle
pressure and always rub with the grain of the steel. DO NOT rub against the grain as damage could result. DO
NOT use steel wool as pieces will be left behind and these pieces will rust.

STORAGE:

When this barbecue is not in use, the gas must be turned off at the gas supply. It is recommended that the
barbecue be stored in a dry place. Failure to do so could cause problems with the ignition system. Disconnect
the tank and store the tank outside in a well-ventilated area away from children. If the barbecue is to be stored
outdoors a weatherproof cover should be used. Contact your local dealer for part availability.
