• Season cooking grates with vegetable shortening after cleaning and wrap them in a towel before storing
them indoors. DO NOT leave in humid, moist or damp conditions, over a long period of time.
• If storing for the winter, or prolonged period, remove the igniter battery to avoid corrosion.
• When storing your barbecue in a garage, place a piece of cardboard underneath your barbecue to protect
it from concrete moisture damage.
• If storing the barbecue indoors: the propane cylinder MUST be removed and stored outdoors, in a well
ventilated area.
• If storing the barbecue outdoors: the propane cylinder valve must be turned “OFF”.
• DO NOT under any circumstances store the barbecue with propane tank in the garage or near any heat

more, but will not protect against moisture damage, condensation, and other corrosive agents.
