Care & Cleaning
WARNING: Always observe the following safety precautions, to prevent bodily injury and to
assure that your Grill will operate properly :
CAUTION:
Always allow sufficient time for the Grill to cool fully before handling or cleaning
any of its parts.
BURNERS:
NOTE: All of the burners should be inspected
frequently and cleaned as often as is neces-
sary.
• Main Burner
WARNING: Always inspect the air shutter
screen periodically to confirm that it is clear
of food residue, spider webs or other insect
debris. A clogged venturi tube can cause a fire
to occur beneath the Grill, due to a flashback
of gas (see Fig. 15).
NOTE:
Remove the cooking Grills and the
sear plates to inspect the burner at least once
per year, or more frequently if required.
• Loosen the burner attachment screws (from
inside) to allow the burners to be pulled
away from the valves far enough for a
venturi brush or suitable cleaning device to
be inserted into the burner venturi to clean
away debris (see Fig. 15). Be careful not
to damage the electrode ceramics.
• Reinstall the burners properly over the valves
(see Fig. 21). Use a wire brush or toothpick
to clean the ports all around the sides of the
burner (see Fig. 17). It is normal for some
surface rust to appear on the burner. Severe
rusting can enlarge the gas ports, however,
which could cause changes in the Grillʼs
performance. Fig. 15
