Other stainless steel surfaces
CAUTION!
Do not use abrasive or caustic cleaners, scourers or metal
scrapers on these stainless steel surfaces as they may
permanently scratch and damage your barbecue. Take
particular care around the control knob graphics and
instructions.
• Wash all stainless steel components, including the
slimline lid, the roasting hood and control knobs with
a soft dishcloth using hot soapy water.
• The barbecue interior can be wiped down with a soft
cloth in hot soapy water. The rear panel of the interior
is removable for easy cleaning.
• Ensure that all surfaces are dried with a clean
dry cloth.
CAUTION!
Take extra care (particularly when cleaning on and around
the control knobs) to ensure that water and soapy residue
do not enter the control panel, where the valves are or into
the burners. Care should also be taken not to disturb the
spark electrode and thermocouple.
A distance of 5mm should be maintained between it and
the burners (see diagram below).
Cleaning inside the barbecue
The inside of the burner box should be regularly cleaned to
prevent any build up of food residue.
To access the burner box remove the cooking plates and
flame tamers and rear heat shield panel. The burners can
then be removed (refer page 8 “Changing Injectors”). The
heat shield panels in the base of the burner box can then be
lifted out for cleaning purposes.
Ensure all oil and food particles are removed. After cleaning
complete, re-assemble ensuring the burner is correctly
located over the injector.

Cleaning the oil reservoirs
The Integrated barbecue has a unique oil management
system which uses channels to drain all oil to the front
into easily removed reservoirs and should be cleaned after
each use.
• To remove reservoirs, pull upwards from the front of the
barbecue and dispose of the contents of the catchment
responsibly. Rinse oil reservoirs in warm soapy water.
The reservoirs can be placed in the dishwasher if
desired.
IMPORTANT!
Special note on “tea staining”
Sometimes stainless steel surfaces are affected by a brown
discolouration called tea staining. This usually occurs in
areas which use high heat and can be easily removed using
specialised stainless steel cleaners. For best results, we
recommend that specialised cleaners be used regularly on
all stainless steel components.
IMPORTANT!
Special note on stainless steel
The stainless steel panels may distort while in use but will
return to normal when cold.
Please note that environmental conditions need to be taken
into account with regards to the maintenance required on
your product. In particular units installed in humid climates
or seaside locations will be more susceptible to surface
corrosion/discolouration over time. In these conditions
BeefEater strongly recommends cleaning and drying your
barbecue after every use and covering it when not in use to
minimise exposure to the elements. Surface corrosion can
be removed by using a specialized stainless steel cleaner.
The ignition system
To change the battery rotate the cover anti-clockwise
to release. Lift off the cover to access spring and battery.
Lift out the spring and battery. Replace with a new AA battery
and replace the cover. Test by depressing the knob and an
audible ‘clicking’ sound should be heard.
NOTE: Ensure that the battery has been placed in the
correct orientation.
Air vents
The mounting enclosure air vents should be checked prior
to each use, to ensure they are clear of any obstructions that
may affect the free flow of air.
Stainless steel burners
Burners should be checked at least once per year and
cleaned as necessary. Inspect burners to ensure no residues
have been deposited and gas ports are clear.
