CARE & MAINTENANCE OF THE GRILL
STAINLESS STEEL
Grease specks can gather and bake onto the
surfaces of the stainless steel, giving the
appearance of rust. For removal, use an abrasive
pad with a stainless steel cleaner.
GRILL RACK
The best time to clean the grill is immediately after
cooking is completed, and the flames have been
turned off.
Wear a barbeque mitt to protect your hand from
heat and steam.
Scrub the hot grill by dipping a bristle barbecue
brush in tap water. Cleaning will be more difficult if
the grill is allowed to cool.
CAUTION
Before cleaning, make sure the gas supply and
control knobs are in the “OFF” position and the
burners have cooled.
GRILL BURNERS
Extreme care should be taken when moving a
burner. It must be correctly centered on the orifice
before any attempt is made to relight the grill.
Frequency of cleaning will depend on how often you
use the grill.
WARNING
Failure to properly place the burner over the orifice
could cause a fire to occur behind and beneath the
valve panel, thereby damaging the grill and making
it unsafe to operate.
GRILL BURNER REMOVAL/INSTALLATION
The grill burners are factory installed.
To remove the main burners for cleaning:
1. Locate the nut at the rear of the burner on the
bottom side.
2. Remove the nut and lift the burner out of the fire
box.
To reinstall the main burners:
3. Insert the burner over the valve assembly
(Item# 20 on page 24).
4. Insert the back of the burner into the hole at the
rear of the fire box and reinstall the nut.
5. Make sure orifice spud is inside the burner’s
venturi as shown below.
CAUTION
GRILL BURNER CLEANING
1. Turn off the gas supply, and make sure the
control knobs are in the “OFF” position.
2. Make certain the grill is cool, and clean the
exterior of the burner with a wire brush. Use a
metal scraper for stubborn stains.
3. Clear clogged ports with a straightened paper
clip. Never use a wooden toothpick. It may
break off and clog the port.
4. Check and clean burners/venturi tubes for
insects and insect nest. A clogged tube can
lead to a fire beneath the grill.
5. If insects or other obstructions are blocking the
flow of gas to the burner, call customer service
at 1-800-554-5799.
GREASE TRAY CLEANING
The grease tray should be emptied, wiped down
and washed after each use with a mild detergent
and warm water solution.
A small amount of sand or cat litter may be placed
in the bottom of the grease tray to absorb the
grease. Check the grease tray frequently. Do not
allow excess grease to accumulate and flow out of
the grease tray.
1. Keep outdoor cooking gas appliance area clear and
free from combustible materials, gasoline and other
flammable vapors and liquids.
FLAME CHARACTERISTICS
Refer to “Flame Characteristics” on page 14.
2. Do not obstruct the flow of combustible and
ventilation air.
3. Keep the ventilation openings of the cylinder
enclosure free and clear from debris.
