Do not remove glass for cleaning.
Glass is not dishwasher safe.
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 burner tube behind the
control panel. This is known as a flashback and it can damage
your grill and even cause injury.
