CAUTION

Do not strike or scrape the ceramic portion of the burners with hard tools, as the material may crack,
chip, or break. Prevent any grease, water, or other foreign material from getting into the ceramic portion
of the burners, especially when cold. Always wait for the burners to heat up to a well-distributed red glow
before placing food on the cooking grid. When a burner is hot, it will vaporize small amounts of grease
that drip on it. Always cover the burners when not in use. Keeping the ceramic portion of the burners free
of foreign substances will allow the gas to circulate and burn over the entire heating surface, allowing for
powerful and even cooking over the life of the burners.

CARE & CLEANING

APPLIANCE MUST BE COMPLETELY COOL WHEN
CLEANING. DO NOT SPRAY ANY CLEANER OR
LIQUIDS ON THE APPLIANCE WHEN HOT.

The appliance must be cleaned as often as once a month
(depending on use) to prevent grease build-up and other
food deposits.

INTERIOR

THE BURNER SURFACE MUST BE KEPT CLEAN TO
ENSURE PROPER IGNITION AND OPERATION.

Wipe with grain

Remove the burner (see orifi ce changing instructions)
and inspect and clean the burner inlet for insects and
nests. A clogged burner can lead to a fi re in the bottom
of the appliance.

The inside of the appliance may be cleaned periodically
with oven cleaner if desired. Follow the oven cleaner
instructions for proper use.

Be careful not to get oven cleaner on the outside surface
of the appliance as it can permanently damage the fi nish.

EXTERIOR

Stainless steel surfaces when exposed to temperatures
produced by the grilling process will change color. The
stainless steel will change color from silver to brown
and blue. This can be removed by using stainless steel
cleaner.

Clean your appliance by fi rst using grill cleaner to remove
grease and dirt. Always wipe with the grain (See Fig.
22-1). Next, use stainless steel cleaner to restore the
stainless steel color (Note: not for mirror fi nish). Finish
by wiping your appliance down using polish wipes. To

clean any mirror fi nish (if applicable), use a quality
brand glass cleaner only, not any of the cleaners
mentioned above.

If your appliance is installed in a seaside (salt air) or
poolside (chlorine) location, it will be more susceptible
to corrosion and must be maintained/cleaned more
frequently. Do not store chemicals (such as chlorine or
fertilizer) near your stainless steel appliance.

Fig. 22-1 - Wipe with grain

PROTECTING YOUR APPLIANCE FROM THE
WEATHER

An optional cover will protect your appliance when not
in use. (Allow to cool before covering.)

Please specify the model number and serial number
of your appliance when ordering a cover.

IMPORTANT

IN THE EVENT OF A GREASE FIRE, IMMEDIATELY
SHUT OFF THE MAIN GAS VALVE TO THE UNIT.
KEEP THE LID OPEN AND ALLOW THE FIRE TO
EXTINGUISH ITSELF. A THOROUGH INSPECTION
BY A TRAINED SERVICE TECHNICIAN SHOULD
BE CONDUCTED BEFORE FUTURE USE OF YOUR
UNIT. THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN WILL CHECK THE
SYSTEM FOR GAS LEAKS AND WILL CHECK ALL
ELECTRICAL WIRING FOR DAMAGE. ALL GAS
LEAKS AND WIRING MUST BE REPAIRED PRIOR
TO FUTURE USE.

Due to the nature of stainless steel, surface iron oxide
deposits may appear. Do not be alarmed – these deposits
are removable with stainless steel cleaner through prompt
and periodic maintenance. If not attended to promptly,
permanent pitting may occur.

By following these recommendations, you will enjoy the
beauty and convenience of your appliance for many years
to come.

CHECKING AND CONVERTING GAS TYPE

This unit comes from the factory confi gured for one type of
gas, as marked on the label located behind the control panel,
or on the interior of the unit’s enclosure.

A certified kit is available from the manufacturer to
convert your appliance from natural gas to L.P. or vice
versa. Contact your dealer for ordering information. The
professional installer must reference the steps below
for conversion information. If the conversion kit ordered
includes instructions, follow those instructions.

1. Change brass gas orifi ces (included at original shipping)

on each burner to match the new gas type (see MODEL
SPECIFICATIONS TABLE, Table 1).

2. Switch the convertible gas regulator to match the new

gas type (see section below).

3. Plumb the unit as appropriate for the new gas supply.

4. Apply the label for the new gas (included at original shipping)

over the old gas information found on your unit.

WARNING
HAZARDOUS OVERHEATING WILL OCCUR
IF A NATURAL-GAS ORIFICE IS USED WITH
PROPANE GAS. IF YOU ARE NOT SURE IF THE
CORRECT ORIFICES ARE INSTALLED, OR IF AN
ORIFICE CHANGE IS NECESSARY, REFER TO
THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS.

CAUTION: Make sure the unit is at a safe

temperature and isolated from
gas and electrical supplies before
beginning the tasks outlined below.

Note: The cooler the unit, the greater the

tolerances between the stainless­steel parts, and therefore the easier to
disassemble and reassemble parts of the
unit.

CAUTION: For your safety, exercise caution and

use adequate hand protection (such
as gloves) when handling potentially
sharp sheet-metal parts.

CHECKING AND CONVERTING THE REGULATOR

Regulator: note cap on top

STEP 1:

Unscrew and remove the cap from the
regulator, extracting the converter.

THIS APPLIANCE REGULATOR IS RATED FOR
PSI, AN ADDITIONAL REGULATOR MUST BE INSTALLED TO REDUCE THE INPUT PRESSURE TO THE UNIT to

PSI OR LESS. SEE GAS-SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS SECTION FOR PROPER GAS-SUPPLY PRESSURE.

Note: Each end of the plastic converter is engraved with either the letters “NAT”

or “L.P.” (propane) for the respective gasses. When the converter is in the
cap and the cap is held uppermost, the letters seen indicate the gas that

the regulator is set up for.

To convert the regulator from one gas to another, follow steps 1-4.

STEP 3:

Turn the converter around and
replace it carefully, into the
center of the cap (it will snap
